The Italian soldiers assert with
pride that they are now reaping the
benefit of a systematic destruction of
the Austrian observation points on the
mountain peaks, mastered after fierce
struggles during the past months and
the lack of which, they say, has great
" decreased the accuracy of the aim
of the Austrians The men saw that
five months of warfare have enabled
them to understand the tricks of their
opponents
When the Italian artillery prepared
the way for an infantry attack on the
intrenchments, the soldiers declare, the
Austrians would retire. When the ar
tilIery ceased firing for the purpose of
allowing the infantry to cover the
ground between the opposing positions
the Austrians would reoccupy their in
trenchments with double forces When
finally the Italians discovered these
| tactics they adopted ruse to catch
the Austrians.
After the artillery had ceased firing
the Italians, according to the soldiers
permitted an interval of time to elapse
sufficient for the Austrians to return
to their trenches. Then they reopened
fire with their artillery and later
charged, and when the infantry reach
ed the trenches they were literally fill
ed with the bodies of dead Austrians.

Pedigreed Seeds

The work on the oat project was con-
tinued until the early part of last week
when seeding time and exhaustion of
the supply of seed brou ght the work of
placing tests with oats to a close. In
addition to the names mentioned last
week this seed has been placed with
the County Poor Farm at Goodells and
with Fred Hyde in Emmett township.
Mr.. Hyde showed his interest in the
movement by becoming q member of
the State Association.
Owing to the lateness of the season
for spring crops and the limited time
at our disposal no local association was
formed while in Emmett township
last Tuesday but enterprising men in
that locality have the matter In hand
and will be lined up for some pedigreed
seed this fall.
The farms of Daniel Foley, Lawrence
Powers, Messrs. Clifford, Cavanagh
and others were also visited. A day
the farms Of John Norman, Charles
Weikmeister, Albert Myron, Crozier
Rutledge and John Mcdonald were
visited. i he association formed by the
Grant people made total of at least
six OF these organizations in the county.
Some time last week was spent in Fort
Gratiot township, the general nature of
the work being the solutions of prob
lens regardingDdrainage, alfalfa, lime
and soil testing. Among the farms
visited were those of Messrs. Hitchings,
Lambert, Quail, and Quinlin. The
works and plans of the county farm
bureau were discussed with the China
Farmers club at the home of Edwin
Rankin on Wednesday. This was fol-
lowed with question box, the inquir-
les of which were answered in the
Times Herald. The soil on Mr.. Ran
kin's and neighboring farms was test.
ed and found to be deficient In lime.
The members of this club are showing
good interest In the work and among
other things arranged for q Farmers
school to be held in their locality next
winter. The ladies also will have a
weeks course in domestic science at the
same time.
The support given the Improved
Seed work In the county shows that it
is going to be generally realized that
attention must be paid to the breeding
of farm crops as we'll as farm animals
and that the same general principle
applies to both. No more seed organ
izations will be attempted until the
state assures US that they can supply
sufficient seeds. The indications are
that the supply available for this coun-
ty has been exhausted for the present.

Contest Notes

Saturday was another big day for our
contest. 1t is surprising the amount
of interest one of these contests stirs
up in a community. It's good thing
for our advertisers and mighty good
thing for us. There hasn't been q day
during the past few weeks that we
haven't added new names to our list
and there is lots of money coming in
from our old subscribers.
Every business man in Yale knows
the value of the Expositor as an adver.
tising medium is away ahead Of any
thing in this neck-o'-the woods, and we
expect to add many more new names
TO our already large list, which will
make it still better for those who ad
vertise with us.
During the two hours which were set
aside for double votes on Saturday,
over 5000 was paid in and the final
returns on that days business cOnvinces
US that the extra votes put more life in
the contestants, so we have decided
that for one hour next Saturday, from
2 to 8 o'clock, we will give three times
the usual number, and this will prob
ably be the last day for extra votes.
While we are not setting definite
date for closing the contest, we want
to wind it up by the third week In May
If possible, so If you have been prom
ising the workers your money, give 1t
to them NOW so we can finish the job.
Below we publish the names of the
ten leading contestants up to Wednes-
day evening -
