I Fertilizers are so high and the

is there any way IA which I cain tell
which OF my lands contain the most
potash? Can j grow potatoes with

compost OF black woods mold and
stable manure will certainly help the
srowth Of crops. But mixture of
woods mold. lime and lye from the
concentrated can lye will not amount
to much. The can lye is not potash.
opt caustic soda, and is of no use as
q fertilizer. Woods mold mixed with
q little lime might do for some things,
but would hardly make a good po-
tato crop Irish potatoes are apt to
grow scabby II line is used.
There Is some potash in all yegeta-
BILE growth and there will doubtless
be little Of 1t in cotton stalks. But
In your section any farmer who farms
right and stores organic matter in his
soil and lines once in FIVE years and
uses acid phosphate literally, will
never need to buy potash.
TO grow Irish potatoes make a mix
ture of equal parts of cottonseed meal
and acid phosphate of the 16 per cent.
grade and use 1000 pounds an acre.
The meal will carry little potash
and the organic matter left by the
peas will have released some more.
Five hupdred pounds of the same will
grow sweet potatoes.
BY deep plowing you may get more
available potash, but as to that 1
think 1t is uncertain, but the deep
plowing will be all right.
AS rule our red clay soils contain
more potash than the gray. but the
amount of potash in any soil can only
be determined by chemical analysis,
and 1t Is usually insOluble and can be
made . available by the methods to
which 1 have referred. You can grow
potatoes with stable manure, but the
salt Will not help, for it is not fer
tilizer. The main difficulty with the
manure Is that 1t may promote the
growth Of the scab fuugus.-Progres-
sive Farmer.

rnANCO-BRITISH LINES
ARE FURTHER ADVANCED

PARIS. July a.-1hc third day of the
battle of the Sommc shows that the
Franco British lines have been further
advanced. with the French right sweep
ing to the eastward south of the
Somme. group OF strategic villages.
u large number of German prisoners
and heavy guns have been taken.
The advanced French llrcs now arc
only three miles from the important
railway junction Of Peronnc, the de-
fensc Of which has been greatly weak
cned by the capture by the French on
sunday OF Mereaucourt wood. south of
the Somme, and between Feullercs and
Frise. This was the strongest fortified
position of the German second line OF
defense on tho entire front of the
attack. but the French division which
took Frise continued to advance with
such impetus that the Germans were
unable to resist. even under the protec-
non of this formidden work.
One of the fiercest struggles was for
the stone quarry, also strongly fortified,
threc-quarters OF mile east of Curlu.
Here the Germans tried to stem the
tide by a desperate counterattack, but
Ghe French American Colonials, one of
the most celebrated corps of the French
'army, rushed the position with such
energy that the Germans broke be-
fore the bayonet.
The French success at Frisc also was
brilliant AS IL Strengthened their line
south OF the elbow of the Somme, thus
avoiding exposure to crossfire. Tho
French announcement to-day Of the
capture OF the village OF Berecourt and
the outskirts Of Estrre and Assevillers
carried the advance about six miles be
yond the point OF depa rture on Satur-
day.
The impetuosity OF the French ad-
vance is shown in the taking of these
villages, which were strongly fortified
with barbed-wire entanglements across
the streets. The stone houses were
transformed into batteries Of barbed-
wire entanglements Military OBJ

LONDON, July 3.---To- o-days news is
again tale Of the continued proEre IS
OF the Anglo-Trcnch offensive Heavy
lighting is proceeding all along the line
The British maintain all their positions
south OF the -tncrc River. where the
battle still RACES. They have captured
La Boiscilc, tho garrison OF which they
surrounded. and are lighting success
fully around Ovillcrs and north of Fri
court.
The British people learned for the
first time Tonight that the famous
French general. Foch, who has won Il
great reputation during the course of
the war, is directing the operations
south OF the Sommc River. This has
given increased confidence in the result
OF tho allied offensive.
The French have captured Ticrbe-
court and .Assavilcrs and made other
substantial gains. taking additional
prisoners and heavy guns. They are
thus making great progress in tho di-
rcction OF tho important German juno
,ion Of Pcronne. which is only little
over three miles distant from their
advance at Iicrhecourt.
Tho noncommitral character Of the
German olnCl3l STA tcincnt issued to-day
is considered in London as a virtual
confirmation OF the success of the
Auglo-Frcnch operations. The Ger
mans admit that the division OF their
forces abutting both banks of the
Sommc. which was partly withdrawn

nature of the action. The Sunncrs
