SOME FACTS ABOUT DIGGER
 THE BADGER

This little fellow IS the great est of all diggers. and with his long, stout claws he makes the sand fly in a most astonishing way. He can dig himself out of sight in few minutes. Digg- ing is his favorite occupation, and it is this habit which has won for him the enmity of man, especially in a cattle country. Where Badgers are numerous, accidents to hOrsemen are ire quent, horses stepping into the holes and being thrown and per haps breaking a leg. This is practically Digger s only offence, but he offsets it many times by the good he does in the destruc- ton of gophers, mice. and ground squirrels. He digs these pests out, laying their burrows open with astonishing ease and rapid ity. He also eats insects, snakes, lizards, etc. He has a liking for some fruits and vegetable mat ter, but in the main is a flesh eatea.
 Digger attends strictly to his own business, but if he is cor nered is a terrific fighter, more than match for a dog much larger than himself. His skin is so thick. and at the same time so loose. that a dog has diff ficulty in getting hold of a vital part. His jaws are so construct ed that when he closes them they lock and it is almost i'm possible to shake him off.
 Altogether, digger is a most interesting little fellow. He is brave, stout-hearted and worthy of better treatment than he re- ceives. Thornton w. Burgess.

FIRES KEEP TIMBER LANDS POOR

Why is raw pine land SC poor?' is a question we are often asked. The answer, we believe, is that this soil poverty IS due. more than to any other one thing. to the fact that pine lands are burned over on an average at least once a year, and in some sections twice. This burning is supposed tC
 improve the range;;" but does It? As a matter of fact it helps destroy the range, because it burns all the vegetable matter that is really necessary to soi fertility, and kills the helpful soil bacteria.
 If you doubt this statement, you can prove or disprove it by fencing a piece of poor land and keeping fire off it. At the end of few years it will be loose, mellow, and chock full of vege- table matter and available plant food, We have actually seen faads hardly capable of making hardly anything at all fenced and fire kept away from them, with the result that in few years nature had built them Up to where they would produce forty bushels of corn per acre.

Allies Are Creeping Slowly
Toward Bapaume Each Day
(By Associated Press.)

Paris, Dec. 5.-The allies are creep
ing closer to Bapaume every day and
bringing nearer the eventuality of an
other great battle there. where French
heroes of nearly all the ages have
fought. The town has seen almost as
much war as Peronne.
General Faidherbe gained there Jan.
3. 1871. one of the few French victories
of the Franco-Prussian war. defeating
General Won Goeben. t s.. ~.s.,
The possession of the town had
previously been disputed a half dozen
times, besieged two or three. and sack
ed once. Louis XI. besieged 1T, took
it. and destroyed it. Charles Quint re-
stored it. Francois !. besieged it and
took it. 1t fell later into the hands of
the paniards from whom 1t was taken
and made French by de Ia Meilleraye,
marshal of France in 1645, with the
aid of the musketeers of d'Artagnan
and the Gascony cadets of Cyrano de
Bergerac.
For the Germanic coalition today as
for the Prussians in 1870 and the
Spaniards in 1641. Bapaume is a posi-
ton of vital Importance: it marks the
limit of the last ridge of the Artois
hills to which an army pressed from
the south and west can cling; after
Babaume come the plains of Flanders
with Cambrai. Valenciennes and Douai
in plain sight. Bapaume taken
Peronne becomes untenable and Saint
Quentin an unsafe shelter for the Ger
man staff.
TheAGermans certainly appreciate the
value of the position no less than did
Charles Quint and the Spaniards. and
they have organized 1t accordingly, but
the French 16-inch mortars are now
almost within range of the town.
IT was at critical period Of the
thirty years war that Bapaume be-
came French. M. de la Meilleraye had
probably more to do with it's conquest
than either d'Artagnan or Cyrano. but
there was less romance in his role.
De la Meilleraye. had taken Arras
after the famous siege. then turned tt
Bapaume. called "the key OF
Flanders There are many analogies
between his campaign and that OF the
allies today. Today, as then, the peo.
pie are finding the war long" Then
as today, parior military critics picked
