ment was made here that General
Won Mackensen has occupied the Rus
sian positions along the entire front
ia the Eastern arena of the fighting
from Cyerniawa to Sieniawa.
These places are in Galicia. Sieni-

ment follows:
The French suffered a severe de-
feat on the front at Levin and Arras.
After the enemys columns, which
were preparing to make an advance
by storm, had been repulsed several
times in the course of the day by our
artillery. strong enemy attacks in
close formation were begun toward
evening against our positions on both
sides of the Lorette hills and on the
Neuville-Roclincourt front.
"Our opponents were repulsed
everywhere with heavy losses All
our positions are firmly in our hands
minor attacks by the enemy on
the User canal were repulsed.
Engagements Without Result.
East of Hebuterne infantry battles
have not led to any results worth men
tioning. Advances against positions
conquered by us in Champagne were
frustrated at the very outset.
I'm the neighborhood of Kuzie,
northwest of Shawl, few enemy po-
sitions were taken. Three officers and
300 men were taken prisoners. South
east of the road from Miriampol TO
Kovno our troops took the first Rus
sian line by storm. Three officers
and 313 men were captured
General Won Mackensen began an
attack over a line extending seventy
kilometers forty-three miles,. Start
ing from their positions at Cyerni-
ava, northwest of Mosciska, and al
Sieniawa the enemys positions have
been taken along the entire length OF
this front Sixteen thousand prison
ers fell into our hands yesterday.
Attacks by the troops under Gen
eral Won Linsingen and General Won
der Marwitz also made progress"

CUTTING CORN FOR THE SILo
Wait Until Kernels Are Glazed or
Dented-If Thought Too Dry
Water May Be Added.

There is considerable Of the nu-
TRENT material lost in cutting silage
corn too early. Corn should not be
cut for this purpose until the ker.
nels are nearly all glazed or dented.
At this stage 1t will usually be noted
that the lower blades are brown and
dry. II 1t is thought that the corn
is little too mature, water can be
added.
Experiments have shown that corn
stover (dry stalks without the ears)
can be ensiled II an equal weight of
water is added as the slower is being
cut. The silage should be we'll
tramped as the siIo is being filed, es-
pecially so around the walls. This
is done to exclude as much air as pos
sible. For the average man, the steam
engine is easier to run than is a gaso-
line engine, and not as many de-
lays will be made in filling the silo.
Where number of men and teams
are employed, a stop of even a few
minutes is costly. After the filling
of a silo is completed, it is a good
idea to wet the top down thoroughly,
after which It should be tramped once
day for a week or ten days. This
procedure will save several tons of
otherwise spoiled silage.

P0IS0NS OF Johnson GRASS
All Fodder Plants Related to Sor.
uhum Must Be Used With Disere-
ton ms Feed for Stock.

By @. H. GLOVER. Colorado Expert
ment Station)
Johnson grass is closely related to
sorghum. Poisoning OF cattle from
sorghum and kafir corn is well known.
After chemical analysis of many
plants Brunnich gave the following
advice: "All fodder plants related to
sorghum must be used with discretion
In either the green or dry state and
SHOULD not be given in large amounts
to animals which have tasted for some
time" The poison in these plants Is
hydrocyanic acid. Poisoning usually
occurs when the plants have made a
stunted growth from drought and are
eaten in large quantities, when the
animals are very hungry.
Animals poisoned in this way usu-
ally die within half an hour and some
times live only few minutes. Hydro
cyanic acid is the most deadly OF poi
sons and in large doses kills almost
instantly. Animals usually die sud
denly from paralysis of respiration
and before medical measures can be
thought OF or prepared for use.

the meat Is at present sold under the
name of Angora mutton. for prices
slightly higher than those paid for
cheap mutton. The meat of the An
CORA Is preferable to that of the COM
mon goat. A venison-like flavor is
given to goat meat when the animals
browse upon various wild shrubs.
This gamy flavor, however. is not so
noticeable when the animals are fed
upon cultivated plants. Very little
use is made of the milk of goats in
this country. but analyses show 1t to
be Of high nutritive value, and II can
be used in the manufacture of cheese
The presence Of Angoras or other
goats in bands Of sheep is said to be

Fine Hair Of the Angora Is

Angora goats were introduced into
this country from Turkey about 1850,
and have been bred ever since in
different parts OF the country In
small numbers. 1t is only within the
last few years. however, that the goat
industry has assumed especial prom
inence. According to recent census
statistics on this subject, there are
1,S15.0OO goats in the United States.
About 100000 OF these are Angoras,
the remainder being common goats.
Goats are useful for several pur-
poses. Their skins are used in the
manufacture of leather, or for rugs;
the fine hair of the Angora is known
as mohair, and is used in the manu-
facture of the various dress goods
and pushes. The demand for mohair
in manufacture in the United States
is much in excess Of the supply which
can be obtained from goats in this
country, and good market for this
product may be expected for a long
time to come.

The annual toll Of the Texas fever
cattle tick in the infested area OF the
South reaches staggering total. Yet
the tick itself is a small parasite, Sc
curing its sustenance by taking little
sups of blood from the animals and
often passing on to them the dreaded
Texas fever. Many cattle owners
who have always been accustomed to
see both ticks and ticky cattle on
their farms unfortunately are not in
clined to attach much importance to
cattle ticks, and, as a rule, through
lack Of appreciation of their damag-
ing effects, consider them as of little
consequence, Ticks take their toll
in many ways, all of which are not
generally understood. Their power OF
transmitting Texas fever would alone
demand their complete eradication
but there are other good reasons for
Kidding the South OF cattle ticks.
It is not uncommon to notice ami
mails on pastures with their hides
very heavily infested with ticks. By
continuous sucking of the blood from
the animals, the ticks impoverish
their circulation and the cattle must
be fed heavier In order to meet the
demands Of the ticks In addition to
the ordinary needs of the animals,
This condition, together with the loss
of blood, frequently induces an irri.

ness, commonly known as tick
