LONDON, June 26-The battle of
the Dniestcr. which will decide the
fate OF the left wing Of the Russian
army In Galicia, sways back and forth
along the river banks. so far without
decisive results. The Russians have
thrown considerable re-enforcements
into this area, but whether they arc
planning n serious offensive or are
merely fighting stubbornly. prepara-
tory to another retreat, is uncertain.
Both sides have lost heavily. Cen
eral Won Linsingen's right flank and
center having been badly cut up when
the Russians threw the Austro-Ger-
mans back across the river.
The Russians have been fortifying
their lines from the river to the Rus
sian frontier, and. with the Austro-
German lines OF communication length
ening daily, the task OF forcing the
Russians eastward becomes more and
more formidable. Although Berlin
claims that the Teutonic allies have
heen forging ahead between the Dnies-
ter and the district which they occu-
pied east of Lemberg, the advance
lacks the characteristics OF the i'm
petuous rush so noticeable in former
stages of the Galician campaign.
The French and German announce
ments relative TO the hghting In the
western theater are so contradictory
as TO afford only the haziest view OF
the situation.
German Socialists are again active
in the cause of peace. according to dis
patches from Germany. and the prom-'
nent paper Vorwacrts has been re-
buked for publishing their peace ap-
peal by indefinite suspension.
Army recruiting in England seems
to have been temporarily forgotten
amid the high tension of the campaign
for munitions workers.
AWAITING NEXT MOVE

public is awaiting the next play on

SELL BLooDED CATTLE
High Meat Prices Threaten to Rob
British Isles of breeding Stock.

LONDON, June 2e.-High meat prices
threaten to rob the British Isles Of
their breeding stock, Farmers. tempted
by the high prices offered In the
markets. are disposing Of blooded
cattle. Cows and hefer calves are
slaughtered in large numbers, with the
result that the production Of local
meat will be scarce after the war. and
high prices kept UP.
The Board OF Agriculture has issued
a circular condemning this dangerous
thinning out of farm stock. In re-
cent meeting the Lancashire Farmers
Association appealed to the foresight
and patriotism OF members to prevent
what II termed a suicidal waste. The
agitation is being carried on In other
parts.
Meantime meat has become so dear
that the customs OF the people are
changing. Beef, the traditional stand
by of Britons, has less important
place on the table. and more attention
is given to beans and lentils as articles
of diet

A Believer in Cowpeas.

Corn and peas are good forage crops. 1 harvest my corn as soon as it is ripe and then disk the land thoroughly and seed to crimson clover and Appler oats. The latter I usually put on the stronger land, and as soon as clover and oats are moved the land IS thoroughly broken and harrow ed with the cutaway and drag harrow. I never stop until 1 get a good seed bed.
 1 SOW peas at the last working of the corn. By cutting the corn low 1 can then take a moving machine and cut the peas. Then the peavineS are put in small piles and as soon as thoroughly dry 1 make frame the size of my wagon bed; Slats are nailed on the frame about two inches apart; netting wire is tackled over the slats; the peas are then beaten out with a frail. and go through the frame down into the wagon bed.

 have about 12 acres in wheat. The wheat crop is top dressed with stable manure about Feb ruary or March. When it is harvested the land is broken and planted in peas. The peas are cultivated twice and when dry are harvested and put on racks, and are failed out by the same process as those that grew in the corn. This land is then thoroly disked and put back in wheat. By using about 400 pounds to the acre of some good wheat fer. tiliZer 1 find land will improve under this cropping method and make lots of feed at moderate cost.
 1 find in growing the crop that the first thing to do is to thor oughly break the land by blow. ing from 8 to 12 inches. The next important thing is to disk and use the drag until the land is thoroughly pulverized. Then you will have good firm seed bed Level shallow cultivation for all crops, and the surest plan for a good yield.-J. F. Sledge. Dan will, Va, in Progressive Faamer.
