Headquarters of Russian Third
Army, July 21.-It is seldom that the
staff of any army cares to allow
newspaper correspondent to observe
or write of it's defeats and retreats;
the field censor's motto is Nothing
Passes Except Good News"
The staff of the Russian third army
has broken the precedent in allowing
the freedom of its lines to the British
official press representative during
the whole of its heart-breaking retreat
from the Carpathian slopes, back
across Galicia and even across the
Russian frontier. The correspondents
first story, covering a long series of
daily fights and daily Russian defeats
followed by the inevitable retreats be-
fore the Austro-G Germans concentrat
ed artillery fire, is as follows:
The advance of the Russians over
the Carpathians was sure to draw
commensurate. and it came just where
many expected it, but with tremen-
dous force This was because it was
not SO much the work of the tired
Austrians, but rather the biggest ef-
fort that Germany has yet put in her
attempts to bolster her ally.
In a house standing high by a
church l found the staff of the divi
sion. There was a hut on the top of
the hill; sitting In front of It one
could see for at least ten miles In
either direction.
The division was holding a front
eight miles across a low line of wood
ed heights, of which the most marked
feature was village with a little
church tower. Against three Russian
regiments were nine, mostly German,
and backed by the most formidable
artillery.
Beyond each of the TANKS of the
division one could see at intervals
black clouds of smoke; one thick
stream OF smoke that stretched into
the skies came from some distant pc
troleum works. The whole right wing
was being pounded with crash after
crash, sometimes four black columns
rising almost simultaneously at inter-
walls along it; under each would break
out little angry teeth of sparkling
flames; the only thing that seemed not
to be hit was the church tower which,
as each cloud died down, came out
simple again in the bright sunshine.
The left wing was in patches of smoke
that sometimes disappeared for a
time.
What was happening to the center
was not clear: so after watching for
some hours the shells and shrapnel
bursting along the line and on the
slope. we descended by some winding
gullies, drawing shrapnel as we
passed over low shoulder, and soon
reached the staff of the center regi-
ment.
Under the nearer wall of a hut, lit
tie groups were working at the tele-
phones. while number of soldiers
lay on logs around. The colonel came
forward and took me into the open
pointing at the ridge some six hun
.dred yards away. All his left was at
grips with the enemy, and on his
right his men were fighting at the

WHAT ONE BOY DID.

Of Corn Club work.

am a .armer boy and have liv-
ed on farm all my life. I have
always lived in the same communi-
ty am only IS years of age. In
1910 the Superintendent of Educa-
ton of this county organized a
Boys Corn Club. l joined it and
turned under the turf in the fall
and sowed rye on the land In the
spring I put lot manure on the land
and broke it about 8 inches deep.
The people around here laughed
at me and said / would not make
five bushels, but when my corn be-
gan to grow they changed their
minds. I surprised them all the
more when gathered rs bushels
on my acre while the average yield
in this county was only IL to IS
bushels per acre. this being about
all papa made. Since the corn
club has been started in this county
papa has tried Investigation of
crops and followed the demonstra
ton instructions until now his av-
erage yield is from so to 20 bushels
per acre. Every year since I joined
the corn club / have continued to
have one acre plot for myself to
put in corn. lean beat papa II ak
ing corn.
In the fall of 1918 I joined the
corn club again. I began the prep
aration of my soil by turning under
the COW pea stubble and breaking
my land 10 to 10 inches deep
then sowed oats and rye on the
land and narrowed it in with a sec
ton harrow. The oats and rye
came up and I used for a pasture
for my jersey calf and two pigs and
it kept them in good fix all through
the winter and gave them q better
start in the spring In the spring I
