Both Sides Confident.

Both sides express satisfaction with
the progress Of the battle. The Rus
sian army under General Rennen-
kampff is fighting its way into East
Prussia and has taken Johannesburg
which is on the railway from Lyck to
Soldau, both of which towns are In
Russian hands. This gives Russia
control of an important railway line
skirting the frontier in German terri
tory and several branch railways
running into the interior The Rus
sian left followed the Kielce railway
to the Austrian frontier within a few
miles of Cracow, the siege of which
is imminent.

Sarayevo dispatch says the governor
of Bosnia addressed proclamation to
the Austrian army, declaring the Ser
vians must be completely defeated
before winter. In conformity to this,
the Servians have been driven back
to their own country, but according
to Servian accounts, they inflicted
defeat on the Austrians who attempt
ed to follow them The steady flow

being organized in India.
Fail in Night Attack.
1t was officially stated that to the
north, we held all our positions. The
enemy sought to debouch from Dix
nude by night attack, but were re-
pulsed. We resumed the. offensive
against the enemy who had crossed
the river, User, and have driven them
back at all points except at one place
where they still occupy from 200 to
800 meters on the right bank. In the
cnnter we gained ground in the re-
gion of Tracy Leval to the northeast
of Forest of Laigue. In the Argonne
region, the German attacks were very
serious, but amounted to nothing.
Germans Claim Progress.
The German headquarters states:
'The enemy advanced from Nieuport
as far as Lombaertzyde, but were
driven across the User. The eastern
bank of the User, as far as the sea,
is now clear Of the enemy. Our at
tack across the Yyser, south Of Dix
nude, is progressing. In the region
east of Ypress we advanced further
and captured 700 French soldiers,
four cannon and four machine guns.
The enemy's attacks in Argonne for
est were repulsed. In the east, our
cavalry operating near Kalisz have
driven back the Russian cavalry
which made fresh advance. Vienna
headquarters reports in the battle for
the Heights of Misar against Servians
November and II, 4,300 prisoners
were taken. Constantinople reports
that the Caucasian army is attacking
the second line of the Russian posi-
tions. According to reports from
prisoners, the morale of the Russians
is very bad. The Turkish troops
crossed the Egyptian frontier and 0c.
cupied Ell Arish and SheikZar.

HOUNDS TRAIL FIRE.eUe.

Medina, ~. d., Nov. 12.-George
Oster, who lives eight miles south of
Medina, lost a large amount Of hay by
fire. 1t was supposed to be Of iacen-
! diary origin and couple of blood
hounds were brought from the peni-
tentiary at Bismarck, and taken out
to the Oster home to see if the party
or parties doing the work could be
traced. Owing to the fact that so
many teams had passed the place
since the fire the hounds were unable
to follow the tracks only from the
burned hay stacks to telephone pole,
where it appears that a horse had
been tied.
1t is reported that Mr.. Oster also
lost considerable grain recently, some
one going to his granary while the
family was away from home and
helped themselves to several hundred
bushels. While 1t is not known for
sure that the stealing of the grain and
the burning Of the hay was done by
the same people, several parties are
under suspicion and criminal action
may be started soon.

pounds OF seed per acre will be re-
quired, depending on the method of
planting. Silage is most satisfactory
as feed for cattle, but may be fed in
reasonable amounts to sheep, hogs,
and even to horses. Each class of
stock will do somewhat better on
silage if a small amount of dry hay
OF some kind can be supplied with it.,
but the major part of the feed may be
corn silage, if of good quality.
In growing corn for silage the same
treatment is advised as would be given
for corn grown for fodder On the
whole, earlier seeding is advised, and
If the silage corn can be put in from
May rs to June 1 better results will
be obtained. Cultivation should be
frequent enough to conserve the soil
moisture and keep down the weeds
After the corn shades the land, cult
walton is not so important. For the
best quality of silage, the corn should
be cut when ears are nicely denied
and beginning to harden. The maxi
mum amount of feed will thus be Sc
cured, and storing in the silo pre-
serves almost perfectly all of the nu-
trients in the corn, and puts the silage
in convenient form for feeding. A silo

.. Due to Certain Germs.
The causes of disease are almost as
numerous as the diseases themselves.
It should be remembered, however,
chat each one of the so called con.
tagious and infectious diseases is al.
ways caused by some particular germ.
For instance, the disease known as
tuberculosis, or consumption, is al.
ways caused by the particular germ
of that disease, known as the tubercle
bacillus. The only disease that this
germ causes directly is tuberculosis,
and there is never tuberculosis unless
the germ of that disease is present.
This general principle applies to all
other catching" diseases, such as
CHAMBERS, anthrax, blackleg and hog
cholera, of animals; and measles, ty.
phoid fever, diphtheria and. scarlet
fever, of human beings, each disease
having it's own particular germ-H.

The best quality of veal can be pro-
duced only by feeding whole milk,
either from a vessel or by permitting
the calves to suckle the dam. IA great
many Of the veal calves marketed are
skim milk calves, but whole milk
calves make more desirable carcasses.
The difference in the cost of feeding
by the two methods often warrants
the feeding of skim milk rather than
whole milk, even though veal Of a
poorer quality results. F
From six to eight weeks is the most
desirable age at which to dress veal
for market. Many younger calves
are marketed, but they usually
make inferior veal which does not
sell as we'll as that from older calves.
It is illegal to sell, offer or expose
for sale, or have in possession With
intent to sell, the veal from calves
killed when less than four weeks old.
The penalty is a fine of not less than
$50 or. more than $1OO, or imprison-
ment for not more than ninety days.
On most markets, calves weighing
less than fifty-six pounds are con-
demned as unfit for food Veal that
