PROGRESS OF THE WAR
SUMMARY OF CONDITIONS PRE-.
PARED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, Oct. 22.-Special: The
Germans not only are attempting an
advance along the coast of the North
sea to French ports, but have attack
ed the allies at many points on the
battle front from the extreme north
to the heights of the Meuse.
In the north the Belgian army has
held its ground with tenacity, while
at La Rasse, around Arras, between
Peronne and Albert, to the east of
the Argonne and along the Mouse, the
German offensive has been repulsed.
This is the substance of the French
official report, and in a measure it is
in agreement with the Berlin official
report, which, while not attempting
any detailed description of the battle,
declares the German forces have met
with strong opposition at the River
User, where the fighting has contin-
ued since Sunday, but that otherwise
the situation rather favors German
arm, particularly in the vicinity of
Lille, at which point the French have
been attacking for several days with
desperation and have been repulsed
with heavy losses.
Thirty thousand Germans are re
ported to have occupied the coast be
tween Ostend and Newport. and to
have dug trenches along the dykes
from Middelkirke to West Ende, but
later advices declare they have been
repulsed near the latter town an
that their guns are now nea Ostend
which they still occupy.
The Russian commander in chief
announces tersely that there is nc
change in the situation, although IT,
Russians are in contact with the er
envy at various points in Galicia an
| East Prussia. With this the Berlin
official statement agrees.
A Rotterdam dispatch says tn,
German marines are leaving ANTWERP
| to join the fleet, and that the ship!
at lei have been extensively provis
Toned, %portending possible activity o.
the part of the German navy, whic
has been at anchor for the past tw,
months in Germany's well protecte
harbors.
Vienna officially reports Austrian
successes in Galicia. east of Chyrov
and Przemysl, and adds that the Aus
tro-German armies have repulsed
great cavalry attack in Poland.
Japan announces the occupation
for military purpose of important isl
ands in the Marianne, Marshall, Eas
caroline and West Caroline Orch
pelagoes. All the Marianne grou
have been occupied, with the excer
ton of Guam, which was acquired b
the United States in 1898, in accord
ance with the terms of the treaty ter
minating the Spanish-American wal
Peking dispatches report on the an
thority of refugees from Using Ia
that the japanese have lost severe
thousand men in their campaign
against the German concession il
lChina.
1t is estimated hat there are no
less than 1000, 900 Belgians outsid
the borders of their own country an
that there are at least 10000
wounded in France.
According to a Rotterdam dispatcl
three ZEPPELIN dirigible sheds are be
ing erected at Brussels and -four a
Antwerp. If this is true it may be
preliminary to the threatened raid o.
ENGLAND across the channel.

DEFINITION OF COOPERATION
In Agriculture Il Means the orsanlxa.
ton Of Farmers for Transaction
Of Farming Business.

Cooperation IL the working to-
gether Of q number of persons for
some common end. In agriculture, It
means the organization of farmers for
the transaction Of business pertaining
to farming. Its purpose is to do joint
iy what cannot be done as economical
ly or a. well by individuals.
Its success depends upon several
factors. A sufficient amount Of busi.
ness 10 essential. The co-operators
should live near enough together to
have . community interest and per-
sonal acquaintance. The business
transacted should be simple in nature,
free from any great degree of specu.
lation and of vital importance or con.
venience to the cooperators. 10y.
atty to the organization and an intel
ligent spirit of cooperation are funda-
mental. Leadership and harmony are
essential and minor differences among
CO operators must be subordinated to
the common good.
The failure Of farmers to study and
practice cooperation IL the chief cause
Of the excessive middle profits. It ID
not essential that farmers should sell
their own produce to the consumer.
but II IL essential that they should be
30 well organized that II they cannot
get their food to the consumer with
reasonable charge for distribution
they should be able to establish dis
tributing agencies Of their own. Until
they do this. producer and consumes
will both be neeced.

WHY YOUTH QUIT THE FARM

One sultry July day, while following
the pillow ON my fathers corn field, q
happy thought came to me that could
make some easy money" by harvest.
Ing the boneset which grew just over
the fence IN a piece of waste land. A
Few weeks later I cut this medicine,
cured 1t very carefully in the shade to
preserve its color. stripped the leaves
and tops and got 1t in frst-class shape
for the market.
Then ! asked the local druggist
what he would pay for my crop of $50
pounds. He said he could not use
such large quantity. and referred me
to three dealers in crude drugs.
sent them samples and asked for quo
tations: my dream Of easy money
vanished, however. when their offers
came. The first offered 3 cents q
pound. another az cents and the last
~ cents. Having no other choice.
accepted the largest offer and In due
time received a check for $3.50 (The
iobber had deducted $1.25 for freight
After paying for the bags I had left
just $3.50. about $1.25 q day. the usual
wage for q country lad.
Meeting the druggist shortly after
ward asked him what he charged for
boneset. He replied: Five cents an
ounce" Then ] got my pencil and
commenced figuring. II one ounce
cost five cents. pound would bring
30 cents; at that rate my crop of $50
pounds was worth 1920. Then l fg.
ured some more and found that the
middleman. who merely carried my
medicine to the consumer. got $114.50.
while got only $3.50 for doing all the
hard work in the boiling hot sun. Then
1t dawned on me that I would be silly
to stay on the farm and work like q
mule for $3.50 when could 60 to town
and make $114.50 In the easier and
more genteel end Of the game.-Rural

ACTIVITY AND AGE
to Do With Length Of Life 10
Well Known.

A few years ago q young man
died Of old age" in New York hos
pital. After an autopsy the surgeons
said that while the youth was in real
ity only twenty-three years old. he
was internally eighty.
1t Is the aged mind that frequently
makes the body old. Keep growing
or de-" is natures motto, a motto
written all over everything in the
universe. There must be q constant
activity in the mind that would not
age; and the body is but the express
sion of the mind.
There is no doubt that, as q race.
we shorten our lives very materially
through our false thinking. our bad
living. and our old-age convictions.
Doctor Metchnikoff of the Pasteur in
stitute in Paris says that men should
live at least 100 years. Yet It is
only in rare instances today that a
man reaches even the century mark.
Making q business of prolonging
life and still retaining AZ much as
possible of its vigor, freshness and
buoyancy ought to be prime object.
especially after one has passed nifty.
While proper care Of the body is alb
solutely essential for the attainment
of this object. the mental influence far
transcends all others. The attitude
Of the mind has everything to do
with Fastening or Sretarding the de-
generative process incident to ones
declining years. It Is an established
fact that the body follows the
thought, il shaped by the mental con-
victions. emotions. moods.-Orison
