British Continue to Push Back
TeutOnic Army.
GAIN OF FOUR MILES MADE
Considerable Ground Secured by Eng.
Iish Soldiers Since Offensive
Began on July I.

London, July 15.-British guns and
infantry continue to deepen the big
dent in the German lines north of the
Somme.
After forcing the second line along
four-mile front General Sir Douglas
Haig's forces renewed the attack.
AS a result the Germans at one
point have been pushed back to their
third line of defense.
This marks a British advance Of
four miles from the original German
lines as they existed at the beginning
of the offensive on July in the Fri
court Mametz sector.
The force of the renewed British
drive is shown not only in the ground
gained, but in the number of prison
ers captured.
London reports the taking of more
than 1000 Germans within the past
twenty-four hours, the total since the
start of the offensive now being in ex-
cess of 10000.
French Remain Inactive.
While the British are thus pushing
back the Teutonfc lines the French on
their right flank are remaining COM
paratively inactive, having already
achieved a similar object.
They are busy at Verdun, however,
where they have repulsed an attack
near the Avacourt redoubt, on the ex-
treme left of the Verdun front, while
the artillery Is actively replying to
commandments by the crown princes
guns on the east bank Of the Mouse.
At Apermont attempted German at
lacks were broken up by the French
barrage fire.
Hard fighting continues between
Russians and Turks in Turkish Ar
menia, where the Russians are push
ing westward from Mamakhatun.
The result of the battles so far is
indecisive. Constantinople reports
The German official report admits
the penetration of the Teutonic lines
by the British.

FREE BLOOD EXAMINATIONS

The Psychiatric Clinic under the
auspices of the State Board OF Con-
troll has provided for free blood ex-
aminations and thereby offered TO
the physicians and to the public OF
the state an opportunity of heading
off considerable amount of insanity
Blood tests have been perfected ID
recent years by which positive in
formation is given of the existence
of conditions in the human body
which, if untreated, will inevitably
lead, in fair proportion of cases, to
incurable insanity and in others 10
incurable diseases of the nervous
system. Discovered early enough,
however, these conditions can be re-
moved by appropriate treatment and
the consequent mental or nervous
disease prevented.
Nor is the value Of these blood ex-
aminatiOns confined to mental and
nervous conditions. BY utilizing them
the health of the public will be adj
vanced in many ways. Their evidence
Isl of great assistance in diagnosis OF
obscure disorders and occasionally
it will be found that patients sus1
pected of having tuberculosis or can
Ger are not suffering from either but
from another disease requiring en-
tirely different treatment.
Even in heart disease great gain
may be expected from the utilization
of this publicly supported laboratory.
1t is generally conceded that the
authorities hold that more attention
must be given to the prevention of
heart degeneration if people are to
secure the maximum attainable
length of life and their full measure
of health. 1t is quite possible in
many instances to detect and check
the degenerative tendency long be-
fore irreparable harm has been done.
Old age debility and especially pre-
mature senility could frequently be
postponed many years were the pa
tient forewarned and forearmed
against tendencies discoverable by
blood examinations. 1t is to our own
personal interest, therefore, to use
this state laboratory which we, the
people, own-to use it as freely as
we do the public schools, streets and
other common property.
Further information on this subject
will be furnished on request sent to
this bureau.

BRITISH TROOPS RAID
TURKS OF sUEz GULF

London, July 18.-Two columns OF
British troops operating on the east
ern shore Of the Gulf of Suez have
raided sixty miles Of difficult country

announcement made by the secretary
of the British war Office
THE commander-in-chief of the
Mediterranean expeditionary force"
the statement says, reports that two
columns operating from Tor and Abu
Seeneima, on the Sinai shore of the
Gulf of Suez. have returned to their
bases after successful raids Of the
enemy posts in the peninsula.
'sSixty miles Of difficult country
were traversed. prisoners were taken
and live stock secured. Despite oppo-

CONTROL OF THE
POTATO BEETLE

The continued warm weather has
caused the eggs of the potato beetle
to hatch rapidly and many growers
who have been in the midst of hayin
have neglected spraying with the re-
suit that on many fields the bugs
have a good start.
Better methods are being used in
Wisconsin this year. Many growers
however, who have waited too long
are now using about five pounds. of
paris green to fifty gallons of water
and applying carelessly. The result
is that the vines are not only badly
chewed but are injured by paris
green burning.
Several growers this year for the
first time have applied the poison in
connection with Bordeaux mixture
made at half strength. This mixture
sticks we'll to the vines and prevents
burning. When paris green is used
it is added at the rate of three
pounds to fifty gallons. Dry arsenate
Of lead has been used at the rate of
four pounds per fifty gallons of
spray.
It has been noticed that several
of the better class of machines have
been purchased this year and salts
faction is invariably reported. 1t is
desirable to have machine which
can be used both for the control of
bugs and spraying at high pressure
against blight.

the state at large they will be returned
by handsome majorities-they should
have had no opposition.
There was no new member Of the
last house who made a better record
than Hon. Edward Indrehus of Benton
county. He was quiet, unassuming
gentleman, one who never talked until
he had something to say, then he was
attentively listened to and what he
said carried weight. AS chairman of
the game and fish committee, his long
and faithful service as an officer of
the game and fish commission enabled
him to intelligently comprehend and
discuss all measures bearing on the
protection and preservation Of game.
Himself farmer he was a valuable
1nember of the important grain and
warehouse committee. But it was as
a member of the roads and bridges
committee that he rendered the most
valuable service to the state. The
notorious bridge combine will leave no

stone unturned at the ensuing session
of the legislature to secure the enact
ment of legislation that:will repeal or
nullify all the provisions of the road
law that conflict with their interests,
and their interests are not those of
the taxpayers. If the present road
law is to be retained and improved it
is absolutely necessary that members
of the Indrehus stripe be returned
to the legislature. Edward Indrehus
cannot be bulldozed, cajoled or bribed
into doing the bidding of the bridge
combine.
We unhesitatingly assert that old
Benton county never had an ADLER or
more conscientious representative in
the state legislature than the Glendo-
RADIO farmer, Edward Indrehus.

CLEARLY UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

Pressure is being brought to bear
on the governor to cause him to con-
vene the legislature in extraordinary
session for the sole purpose of enact
ing a law that would enable the men,
bers of the national guard from this
state on the Mexican border to exer-
else the right of suffrage at the en-
suing election.
Has the legislature right to enact
such law? If we interpret the state
constitution Alright the answer must
be in the negative.
Sec. 1, article 7, of the state consti-
tuition reads as follows:
Every male person Of the age of Fl
years or upwards belonging to either
of the following classes who has re-
sided in this state for six months next
preceding any election, shall be en-
titled to vote at such election IN THE
ELECTION DISTRICT of which he
shall at the time have been for 80
days resident, for all officers that
now are, or hereafter may be, elective
by the people,"
A voter can only vote in the election
district of which he is resident. The
section of the constitution above quot
ed admits of no other Interpretation.
Sec. 3, article 7, of the constitution
hot -
ing no person shall be deemed to have
lost a residence by reason of his alb
senee while employed in: the service Of
the United States.'' =
By some the above sproviso is con-
strued to mean that law permitting
the soldier boys to vote would be in
accordance with the letter and the
spirit Of the constitution. That is a
far-fetched construction. AS we in
terpret the proviso in question, it sim
ply means that if a person was9or had
been in the service Of the United
States at home or abroad, no matter
whether for month or twenty years,
he would not lose his residence in the
election district Of which he was res
ident at the time he engaged in such
service, and that upon his return to
such district, regardless of the period
of his absence, he would be entitled to
exercise the right Of suffrage, even
if he reached his home district on the
day Of election.
The most urgent demand for an eN

permit Of the soldier boys at Llano
Grande exercising the right of suf-
frage at the ensuing election comes
from Minneapolis. The mayoralty
fight in Minneapolis promises to be
close and holly contested. Now sup
pose the vote of the Minneapolis mem
bers of the national guard at Llano
Grande decided the contest in favor of
Langum, the republican candidate for
Mayor, and VanLear, the socialist can
didate for mayor, contested the cleo
ton on the grounds that the soldier
boys in Texas had: no right to vote
there is hardly a question as to how
the supreme court would decide.

A Minneapolis judge last week SEN
fenced an auto thief to the reformatory
lat St. Cloud, and the age of the cul-
prit was all that saved him from the
state prison. There is no doubt but
what automobile thieves have been
dealt with altogether too leniently in
the past and as a result automobile
stealing has increased at an alarming
rate. If the practice Of Furnishing
auto thieves to the utmost becomes
general, it should prove affective in
decreasing thefts.
