Berlin, Oct. 13.-(By wireless to
Sayville), I'm answer to the views of
Generals Joffre and Haig as to the
results of the Anglo French offensive
on the Somme and also in reviewing
the situation on other fronts, the mill
tary critic of the Overseas News
agency, a semi -off1cial bureau, writes:
Just as General Joffre did General
Haig now feels obliged to strike a
balance Of the Somme battle. His re-
view Of the result Of the battle. which
already has waged more than three
months. was published a few days
ago. In it the British commander
takes a view curiously opposite to
that taken by the French commander,
the main result.
"The British general says: The un-
interrupted systematic pressure of the
entente armies must finally exhaust
the morale and material forces Of the
central powers especially as to the
existing reserves of war material
This so-called strategy of wearing
great decision Of the war was ex-
pected, however, has accomplished
very little as proved by the great sue
cesses gained by the central powers
who still have such forces at their
disposal that they are able to carry
| out their offenses.. Thus It is evident
| that their reserves cannot be ex-
hausted but rather there must still
exist a considerable abundance OF
forces.
THE glorious victories by these
| troops in the Balkans and in Transyl-
! vania, after the heavy fighting on the
Somme and in Galicia further proves
that their morale cannot have been
lowered by systematic pressure but
rather must have been uplifted.
THAT German troops cannot take
the offensive when other troops take
the offensive in other war theatres
simultaneously must be self-evident
to everyone who knows the extension
Of the fronts on which Germany
| fights today. While the English front
Is only 135 kilometres long and the
French $50 kilometres, Germany
fights on a front 100 kilometres ir
| length.

TREMENDOUS SHIPMENTS
OF COAL ARE REPORTED
Increase Of 1ee,6o0 Tons in Trans
portation Out of Duluth During
September.

Duluth, Mimi, Oct. 14.-Coal ship
ments from the head of the lakes
docks during September, amounted to
approximately 1879 500 tons more than
in the same month last year. This is
about the proportion of increase that
has obtained all year. and in view Of
the fact that receipts have not been
as large as expected and the coal
docks started out with serious
shortage last spring, stocks on hand
are considerably short of what they
should be. Coal dealers believe that
this condition portends a coal short
age, if not a famine, for most of the
northwest during the coming winter.
Balance on hand is 5,450,000 tons,
all kinds against 6,550,000 tons all
kinds Oct last year. Last year was
considered a short tonnage year.

WAKE UP FEELING FINE! BEST
LAXATIVE FOR MEN. WOMEN
AND CHILDREN.

Enjoy life! Remove the liver and
bowel poison which is keeping your
head dizzy, your tongue coated, breath
offensive, and stomach sour. Don't
stay bilious, sick, headachy, constipat-
ed and full of cold. Why don't you
get a box of Cascarets from the drug
store and eat one or two tonight and
enjoy the incest. gentlest liver and bowel
cleansing you ever experienced. You
will wake up feeling ht and fine.
Cascarets never grippe or sicken like
salts, pills and calomel. They act so
gentle that you hardly realize you
have taken cathartic. Mothers
should give cross, sick, bilious or
feverish children a whole Cascaret any
time-they act thoroughly and are
harmless.-Advt.

Woman Accused of
Murder is Removed
Under Extradition

Philadelphia, Oct. 14.-Mifiie De
Marco Of this city, arrested with three
other Italians in connection with the
murder last week at Atsion. n. j., Of
Harry Rider of Howell, Mich, and the
shooting Of his brother. A. ]. Rider, Of
Hammonton, n. j. president OF the
New Jersey Cranberry Growers asso-
citation, and two others, was taken to
Mount Holly, N. j., on requisition to
await trial Earlier in the day Judge
Ferguson refused her counsePs appli-
cation for a writ of habeas corpus for
her release on bail. When the New
Jersey detectives learned Of the courts
action they seized the hysterical girl
and hurried her out Of the state in an
automobile into the jurisdiction Of the
New Jersey authorities.
The De Marco girls name was not
mentioned in q writ of habeas corpus
granted yesterday by the superior
court to her three companies in the
alleged bandit murder automobile,
Frank Vassela, Frank Ladonne and
Giuseppe Russo, all Of this city. The
writ is returnable October 20, and acts
as a stay of removal from the state.

Germans Refuse to Admit
That They Are Defeated

But in the Balkan war theater,
where, according to the unanimous
declaration of the entente the decision
must be reached. the central powers
have VIGOROUSLY gained the initiative
There they dictate the law of action
to their enemies, The plan Of the en-
tente in the Balkans failed completely
in spite Of Rumania's entrance into
the war.
"Rumania, which was expected to
bring a decision for the entente is
rather a brake on their progress and
of no advantage, especially since the
Russian armies at present, by reason
of the complete failure Of their Often
sive in Galicia, in which they suffered
enormous losses, are debilitated to
such a degree that they are Obliged
for the time being to leave Rumania
to her fate.
The entente repeats from time to
time the assertion that Germany is
exhausted, but this claim is merely
empty words and advertising in order
to impress neutralS and to stimulate
their own nations and armies. The
victorious defense in the east and
west and the energetic offensive os the
central powers in Pennsylvania and
the Balkans prove better than words
the fact that the forces and military
superiority Of the central powers are
unshaken.
England hoped to wear out the
German forces by the present often
sive on the Somme, but this can now
be considered failure. It is the az.
gressor who will be worn out more
than the defender. The sanguinary
figures published recently by The Lon
don Daily Mail speaks a language that
ought to be grave and impressive fol
Great Britain. Besides, these figures
do not contain all the extraordinarily
heavy losses suffered during the last
three weeks by the British and French
in most terrific battle on the Somme
The wearing out Of regiments is q
source of serious care, not only fol
France, which is bled to death already
but also for England, which until nov

DAIRY BULLS. VALUE
SHOWN BY OFFSPRING
Farmers Are Advised Not to Sell
Sire Until His Daughters
Have Been Tested.

G. c. Hayden of the Ohio experiment
station is authority for a statement
that the dairy bull may be worth more
than $4,000 in one year to dairy herd.
He shows that in the station herd one
bull produced daughters averaging 153
pounds more butterfat than their dams.
If ten daughters produced milk for six
years, the total production of this sire
would be worth $2,750 more than that
of a bull that produced no increase,
if butterfat is worth 30 cents a pound.
Since the value of the bull can be
determined only by the milk and but
ter yields of his daughters, farmers
are advised not to sell the dairy sire
until his daughters have been tested.
Buyers should not discriminate against
an Old bull if he has some high pro-
ducing daughters, for his value cannot
be determined until he is at least four
years old.

Emotions.

Emotions are what you have when
you are all stirred up; for example
when you are in love or when a note
which you had previously forgotten
suddenly falls due Also, when you
think You are writing poetry and when
you are leading one who is practically
total stranger up to an altar, where,
by previous arrangement and design,
you have stationed a gentleman with
power to cause you more future trou-
bic than you have ever dreamed of.
Science tells us that something cannot
come out of nothing, yet emotions
seem to do this. A calm, placid lady
whom you have known and trusted for
years Will suddenly have emotions
which will create an area of disturb
ance extending for miles in all direc-
tons. Emotions are felt but rot seen.
If you could see an emotion coming
with the naked eye, you might be able
to avoid it. Some men can thus avoid
emotions when they see their wives
coming, but not when they have emo
tons themselves.
Emotions are of various kinds and
are variously expressed; a New York
policeman expresses his with a club,
and every dog with the end of his
tail.-Life.

Even SO" Birsky went on. my idee

results are secured with q mixture OF
one or more grasses and at least one
variety OF clover. Sweet clover alone
IS used to some extent on q number OF
projects, but no information has been
secured which appears to warrant am
general recommendation of this GRO,
IN preference to mixed grasses for il
rigated pastures. Some cases OF
SWeet-clover biOat have been reported.
and it has not been possible to secure
any reliable data showing that swet
clover has high carrying capacity.
Inc use OF alfalfa as a pasture crop
for cattle or sheep cannot be recon-
mended for the northern projects, be-
cause alfalfa so frequently causes loss
from bl0at. On one of the projects,
% per cent of the cattle lost during
the year 1915 are known to have died
from alfalfa bloat. Losses sustained
by farmers and in the experiments Of
the office Of western irrigation agricul-
ture of the bureau of plant industry
Indicate that it is not safe to use even
a small quantity of alfalfa seed in
pasture mixture. From the infOrma-
ton at present available there seems
to be no doubt that it is advisable to
confine the selection Of pasture crops
to the grasses and clovers.
''There is little uniformity at present
as to the kinds of grasses and clovers
used. Some pastures contain only a
single grass and no clover, while 9TH
ers have as many as seven or eight
grasses and two or three clOvers. The
use of a single grass or several grasses
without clover is considered inadvis-
able, largely because of low carrying
capacity. The use of several grasses
which have different habits of growth
and different temperature requirements
assures more nearly continuous growth
throughout the season. For exam
pie, some grasses will grow better DUR
ing cool weather or in times of water
shortage than other grasses which, on
the other hand, may make rapid
growth when the temperature is high
or when water is abundant.
"The two clOvers most commonly
used with the grasses are white and al
Sike, sometimes one and sometimes
both being used. Difficulty OCCASION
ally results from clover bIOat where
the clover has been seeded too heavily
or where the conditions are especially
favorable to its growth, as they are on
some Of the projects. Where the pas
ture crops include several grasses and
where not to exceed two pounds per
acre of either clover seed is used, the
danger of blOat is not likely to be Sc
rious. In the selection of corps for
irrigated pastures, provision should al
ways be made for variety and high
carrying capacity and this necessi-
tateS the use of at least one clover
and preferably more than one grass"
The bulletin then devotes several
pages to pasture mixtures for various
soils, method of seeding, irrigat ten,
and management.

New Use for Compressed Air.
