TRIUMPH FOR Army
Bv The United preas

BY The United Press.
LONDON, Aug. 3l.-Although Eng
land is pouring more soldiers into
France to take the place Of those lost
during last weeks lighting, and it is
known that Paris is making active prep
arations for siege. the statement of
Lord Kitchener telling of the part the
British played in the four-day battle
has greatly relieved the tension in Lon
don. HIS statement that Sir John
French placed the british losses at from
5000 to 5000 was received calmly Hys-
terical reports which had been circu-
lated of serious reverses had led the
public to believe that the losses might
b. much greater.
The statement of the war minister
that the confidence and spirit of the
army is mistaken has revived hopes of
ultimate victory Lord Kitchener de-
clared that every gun lost by the Brit
ish forces has been replaced and twice
the number Of troops have taken their
place. The retirement of the British
troops was always in good order and in
the face of a vastly superior number Of
Germans.

Commenting on the interview editor

through it Churchill "iustifes to the

the essence OF the entire struggle is the
fight between democracy and military

oDoRLEss CABBAGE is HERE
New Vegetable introduced From
shantUns Province Of China Grown
On Experimental Plots.

A new Chinese odorless cabbage, in.
troduced into this country from the
Shantung province Of China. has been
grown on experimental plots near
Washington. David Fairchild, who is
in charge OF the governments work in
plan introduction, and Dr. d. ~ Shoe
maker, a horticultural expert in the
bureau of plant industry, have been
doing the work. The odorless cabbage
is rated as a great delicacy by those
who have tasted IT, II was discovered
In China by the plant explorers Of the
department OF agriculture. Besides
lacking the cabbage smell. It has the
additional advantage Of being a very
rapid grower.
The Chinese cabbage is different in
shape from the domestic varieties,
bsing long and narrow II also re-
quires a different method Of cultiva-
tion. The needs Of the common cab
bage are planted in the early spring in
a hot bed or cold frame, and the young
plants are set out after the danger Of
frost is past The seeds OF the new
Chinese cabbage, however, are planted
during the first week Of August in the
open ground, and they head up in the
early winter.
The vegetable is adaptable to prac-
tically all sections of the country
where the domestic cabbage will grow,
and where the soil is rich enough
so that the growth Of the plant may be
forced For men who are engaged in
intensive farming, this cabbage is like
ly TO become popular A grower can
raise a crop Of spinach and possibly
a crop OF snap beans before he plants
the cabhare seeds in August.
