WILL ESTABLISH HAY MARKET

Messrs. d. w. Tompllins and George
Rentz are working out plans for es-
tablishing a home market for Marion
county grown hay. They propose to
contract with the farmers for all the
hay they can produce at fair price.
This will then be graded. baled and
stored. They will use beggarweed,
peavine, peanutvine and crab grass,
all of which make splendid hay and
when properly cured is relished more
by stock than the imported feed of
which thousands of dollars worth are
brought into the county each year.
This movement should mean the saw
ing of thousands Of tons of hay in
Marion county, which, under the pres
ent lack of systematic srnarketing,
goes to waste annually. Farmers
should consult with these gentlemen
at once and assist them in establish
ing market for this valuable pro-
duct, thereby helping themselves
while keeping at home portion OF
the vast sums sent to the west for
feedstuffs.

RTTAIN PUTS h-N EMBARGO ON
HARD WORK AHEAD
Strongest Forts of DardaneIles Yet to
be silenced


London, Feb. %. After having
completed the destruction Of forts at
the entrance of the Dardanelles, the
allied fleet Of British and French
warships, the greatest which has ever
been in action, are now attacking the
inner forts, which heretofore have
stood between Turkey and invasion by
the sea.
Apparently the outer forts could not
withstand a great bombardment and
when they had been leveled and de-
serted men were landed from the
ships to complete the work of dem,
olition, while mine sweepers cleared a
passage in the straits.
More serious work is now ahead,
for the all-important Notifications are
VAT Kilid Bahr and Chanak, which
guard the narrowest part of the
straits There Is no doubt, however,
that the allied commanders have in
structions to make their way to Con-
stantinople in spite of all obstacles
and have been supplied with the besi
means of carrying out these orders

preached from the inside. His burg
larsfip, however. heard them about as
soon as they did him, and proceeded
to put distance between himself and
his would-be captors. Mr.. Belcher

hunger.

FIGHTING ABOUT TO ENTER
ON A NEW PHASE
After Seven Months of War. Advan-
tage is with the Allies

After Seven Months of War. Advan-
tage is with the Allies
London, Feb. 28.-With Russian
successes in the region of Przasnysz,
North Poland and Kolomea, East Ga
licia; the successful progress of the
operations of the allied feet in the
Dardanelles and the decision of the
allied governments to stop all ship
ping to and from Germany, Austria
and Turkey, the war. it is believed
here, is about to enter upon a new
phase.
While the success reported by Pet
rograd covers only small portion of
the long front i'm North Poland and
the Germans have been able to record
counter success near Kolno, the gem
eral impression among military men
in London is that the German often
sive in the north has exhausted itself
and the tide is turning in favor of
the Russians, who with railways al
their back. have been able to bring up
more reinforcementss than the inyad-
ing army, whose communications, af-
ter German territory is left, must
cross a country of marshes and over
flowing rivers.
Much more fighting. however, must
be waged before a final decision is
reached.

ises those who attend the lodge

Just what this will be is problemat-
ical as the committee never makes ad-
vance announcements of its program.
Past experience, however, is that when
this committee says there's going to
be something doing at certain meet
ing, it's so. All members as well as
visitors should be on hand to indulge
in the surprise that the committee
has prepared for them.
