Paris. July 3.-The Germans are
hammering away at the French lines
in the Argonne region in the appar-
ent hope of breaking through and
reaching Verdun. The latest French
statement shows a further attempt to
advance through violent attacks,
which the French assert were repulseG.
The French war departments official
statement today says:
The artillery fighting vas spirited
all last night at a great many points
along the front, notably in the vicinity
of the Woesten, northwest Of Ypres,
in the region of Souchez and in the
neighborhood of Verneuil, to the north
of the Aisne.
after a violent and continued bonn
bardment upon our positions to the
north of the Beht Bethune highway.
German grenadiers delivered an at
tack at about 2 o'clock in the morning.
The result was a complete failure.
Near La Boiselle, one OF our mines
was successful in destroying the ad-
vance works of the Germans.
In the Argonne there was very yio-
lent fighting all last night. One of
the German attacks was supported by
the use of ~asphyxiating bombs as we'll
as large hand bombs. 1t was driven
back.
In the forest of LIE Pretre there
was also a forward movement of the
enemy which followed a violent ar
tiliery fire. This attack also was driven
back by our infantry"

new RULING MADE ON
VETERINARY SERVICE;
TEST SUIT PROBABLE
Now Claimed Five-Year Law
No Good to Those Not Legally
Registered In 1909.

Pierre, s. d.. July "a test case
will undoubtedly get Into the courts
on the validity of the live stock sani-
tary law as to regulation Of licenses
to veterinarians. The 1913 law said
that those who had practiced in this
state five years as veterinarians could
have licenses issued to them without
examination. In 1909 a law was
passed concerning licenses, and for
mer Attorney General johnson ruled
that the mere practice for five years.
previous to 1913, was all that was re-
quired to get u license without exam
nation.
Some contended thai there were
thai length of time, or since 1909, who
mad not done so legally, as they had
not obeyed the 1903 law and had not
been properly licensed at that time,
but that the actual practicing for five
years preceding 1913. regardless of such
licenses. fixed eligibility, was the hold.
Ing, and upon 1t the board issued Ii
CenSes.
NOW the graduate veterinarians raise
the point that such five years of prac-
tice was illegal in those cases where
there was no license obtained under
the 1909 law, and that, therefore. such
persons cannot legally claim exemp-
ton from examination and secure IL
cense under the 1913 law, because of
continuous practice. The present at
torney general has overruled the for
mef holding and rules that persons
not legally practicing under the 1909
act cannot claim the exemption, and
further examination before securing
license is necessary. The ease will have
a hearing at Pierre soon, on the COM
plants registered, and will %undoubted-
ly get into the higher courts for final
settlement.

HESSIAN FLY DOING
MUCH DAMAGE, CLAIM
Too Late to Check Ravages
In Central States-Farm-

Washington. July 3.-The Hessian
fly Is inflicting immense damage to the
wheat crop throughout an area ex-
tending from northeastern Oklahoma
and northern Arkansas northward
through Kansas. Missouri. Nebraska
and southern Iowa and eastward, in
Guiding principally Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio n Pennsylvania. In a circular
issued today by the department Of ag-
r~iculture, the prediction is made that
the fly will cause a loss of millions of
bushels. Officials charge the fly with
responsibility for decreased condition
reports from those states.
The department states in the cir
cular that nothing can be done now
to lessen the damage to the present
crop, but warns farmers to SOW no
wheat in August, in order to save next
years crop from being attacked.

RESTRICTIONS ISSUED ON
USE OF HOG CHOLERA VIRUS

Pierre, s.. D.. July 3.-The live stock
sanitary board has issued restrictive
orders concerning the sale of hog
cholera virus, prohibiting it's sale by
manufacturers or persons in this state
to n but those who have legal per-
mits to use it. This depends upon
their experience, study and training in
the use OF the virus. The serum ia
comparatively a simple thing to use,
but the virus is dangerous and often
results in spreading the disease.
