London, April 26.-The tremendous
battle begun by the German attack ON
the allied arc-like front around Ypres.
in the plains of Flanders, continues
with undiminished fury and England.
like the remainder of Europe, is
awaiting the outcome with undis-
guised anxiety. N
Even news that the allied fleet and
army have commenced an attack on
the Dardanelles, and that troops are
advancing against the Turkish en-
trenchments, which a few days ago
would have aroused immense enthu-
siasm, was received with only passing
attention in the face of the stakes in
the balance in the battle being fought
beyond the English channel. It is
believed the Germans by a stroke they
have delivered against the British,
French and Belgians, are once again
aiming at Dunkirk and Calais; and
others believe it is only a feint in
force to draw the allies reserve while
preparations are made for an attack
at some other point in the long line.
Whatever are the intentions of the
Germans, they certainly made sue
cessful coup nearly breaking the al
lies line. The Canadians were The
first to recover themselves, and in q
counter attack recaptured their
ground.
The French and Belgians who re-
ceived the blast in fuller force, were
driven back across the canal between
Boesinghe and Steenstraate, but not
much slower in recovering succeeded
in regaining possession of the German
sweep, and the work that is before
the allied armies before the situation
can be fully restored. 1t is described
as mastery tactical counter stroke"
and that IF the Germans waited long
to take their revenge for Neuve Cha
pelle, they have taken it now"
BY getting across the canal the Ger
mans gained for a moment command
of new roads. If they had not been
driven back they would have forced
readjustment of the whole allied line.
That there is no shortage Of men and
munitions is shown by the fact that
the Germans are at the same time
conducting the offensive in heights Of
the Meuse where they have made an
effort to recapture Les Eparges.
Meanwhile the Austra-Germans
have evolved new movement in the
Carpathians, attacking the Russians
in the neighborhood of Uzsok pass:
The Austrians claim considerable sue
cess in the capture of additional
heights and prisoners.
A new attack on the Dardanelles is
being made by land, sea and air. An
official report says little beyond that
despite serious opposition the troops
have been successfully landed at va
rious points on the Galliopli peninsula.

HIGH SCHOOL PICKS UP ... a.
LONG DISTANCE MESSAGE

The High school wireless now has
its new receiving apparatus in first
class working order. A new station
was heard Monday, Newcastle in New
Brunswick. Prof. Fitzgerald is. posi-
tive that he heard Berlin sending a
commercial message to New York last
week but as they did not sign up, he
could not be absolutely certain. If an
aerial could be stretched from the wa
ter tank on the hill south of town to
the High school, they could easily pick
up messages from almost any part of
the world.

RAILROAD FOR ALASKA

when a goose can raise a brood of
goslings and the California poppy can
thrive 40 miles north of the arctic
circle in Alaska, it can't be so bad as
the people in this part of the country
imagine" remarked Judge A. 2. Wat
son, of Nome, Alaska, at the New Will
lard. II have seen the poppy growing
at that distance north of the arctic
circle, and never taken in or covered
up during the cold months, and have
seen an old mother goose raise her
brood and fly off with them to the
southland at the approach of the win.
ter. 1t gets mighty cold in some parts
of Alaska at times. The mercury
went down to 7S below, believe, a
short time ago. But for the most part
Alaska is as fine country as any in
the world, and when we get our gov
ernment railroad built and the coun.
try opened up Alaska will be as ac-
cessible as any of our states of the
northwest It will be a richer and
greater state some day. This is the
first thing the federal government has
ever done for us, but if will be
great thing. It will open a country
that will surprise the world. We have
all the coal in Alaska that we need,
and this road will give it to US. No
one in Alaska knows where the road
will start or when it will 60 but we
hope it will reach us at Nome, and
when that comes we shall be able to
run down to Washington most any
time. Secretary Lane, I presume,
knows something about the. railroad,
but he won't tell. -
There is every reason to believe
that this year will be prosperous for
Alaska" addd Judge Watson. 1--WE
didn't take GUS as much gold last year
as we have averaged in other years,
but there were unfavorable conditions,
and unless something unforeseen oc-
ours, there will be big production Of
gold in 1916" =

FILL WILL BE ENORMOUS AFFAIR

If reports are true that fill must be
made underneath the eastern end of
the N. P. bridge, it will indeed be a
huge task. The ground covered by
the base of the fill would include the
territory now used by the Chautau-
qua, which lies on the north side Of
the Sheyenne. Besides taking away
a large block of land from the Chau-
tauqua park, it would greatly detract
from the beauty Of the view.

GERMANS REVENGED FOR
NEUVE CHAPELLE DEFEAT

as the majority Of the farmers in this
section of the country. l thought
wheat was the only thing there was
any money in. l changed my mind a
few years later in regard to this and
commenced raising other crops, such
as barley, corn and alfalfa, and never
sowed wheat except on such lands that
I knew were capable of producing
good crop. l commenced system Of
rotation and I found that nearly every
year had good crop Of the different
kinds of grain that l had in.
find that it pays to use the best
kind of seed. A few years ago pur-
chased carload Of seed oats, the best
could buy, paying about IS cents a
bushel for them. The first year rails
ed u bushels per acre by machine
measure, the next year IS bushels per
acre and the third year 81 bushels per
acre. The oats were raised on the
same kind of land and prepared the
same each year and I believe that if
the seed could be changed often the
yields would be much larger.
The last five or six years have been
raising alfalfa successfully. I have
raised alfalfa on inoculated soil and
have raised it on soil that was not in
oculated, and I find that it grows and
does we'll in either instance. have
raised 1t with nurse crop and without
a nurse crop, seemingly equally sue
cessful.
l now have about IS acres of fine al
falfa and expect to SOW about so acres
more this season. l find that it is ex
cellent feed for hogs, horses and cat
tie. raised nearly five tons Ito the
acre) of alfalfa last season in three
cuttings and left very nice stand q
go into winter quarters. l trust that
within five years, every farmer will
have from 40 to 100 acres of alfalfa on
his farm.
Just as soon as the farmer turns his
attention to the raising Of alfalfa, q
good grade Of hogs, cattle and horses
using at all times a good full-bloodeG
sire, and cuts his wheat acreage dowr
to 40 acres on quarter section, he
will find that things are coming his
way. And to the farmer owning his
own land 7 wish to say this: in 8
number of places in South Dakota lane
sold eight or ten years ago at from
$50 to $50 per acre, and that the same
land is now selling at from 500 t,
$3.50 per acre. I fully believe that the
man who will hold onto this land fo1
eight or ten years will see the same
thing happen here.
l was a great believer in North Da
kota and it's possibilities Is years ago
when a great number were selling out
and getting out of the country, and ]
believe now that the possibilities of
North Dakota are greater than any
other state in the union. My advice to
the farmer would be to stick to his
land. Plant some alfalfa, get good
horses, better grade Of cattle and
hogs, use better seed, and success

PROOF FROM MEN
who MADE GOOD"

The following letter received by
Commissioner Flint of the state de-
partment of agriculture is from the
pen of one who has personally demon
strated the truth of every word writ
ten. It is not theory but clean cut
statement of what can actually be
demonstrated. 1t is fine boost for
corn and alfalfa, the two coming grain
and fodder crops of North Dakota:
Complying with your request for a
short statement of my opinion regard
ing the agricultural outlook for North
Dakota, l wish to say that never be-
fore were the opportunities greater
than at present.
"A system of destructive agriculture
"a one-crop system-is rapidly giving
way to diversified farming. Two great
crops the being largely planted on al
most every farm, namely corn and al
falfa, and so successful are these crops
proving that they are already looked
upon as the foundation of the future
agriculture in the state.
$50 then the cheap and abundant
production of protein and carbon-hy-
drates brings with it the growing of
every kind of livestock on every farm
at the lowest cost of production and
with the highest profit on the market.
'This means a constant and reas-
onably sure income, which in turn is
leading to better conditions every
where. And above all to better farm
homes; homes with conveniences;
homes with trees and flowers; homes
which we love; and so comes content
ment, than which there is nothing else
as good. 1@.' @7''-
alfalfa is proving itself pre-emin-
emily we'll suited to North Dakota con-
ditions; and those farmers who have
already good acreage of it on their
farms are getting very profitable re.
turns. e.. ".
North Dakota climate is at once
well suited to sure and abundant
yield of alfalfa seed and at the same
time so exacting that the seed produc-
ed here is the hardest and best obtain
able Already North Dakota alfalfa
seed is selling at a big premium, and
we have only just begun.
$50 l can assert with confidence
that no better opportunities exist any
where than here in North Dakota to-
day." C. BYRON BOBB.
The following letter received by
Commissioner Flint of the department
of agriculture, from H. J. Johnson, one
of Dickey county's leading agricultur-
lists, is a splendid argument from q
thoroughly practical man in favor of
diversification in farming and the ad.
vantages of the live stock industry of
North Dakota. Read It and sbe con-
vinced that nowhere in the union can
better opportunities be found for the
intelligent and willing worker than
within this state wherein we live.
| I have lived in North Dakota more
or less for the past 25 years; 20 or Is
years ago I felt very much the same
