driven into the German line east of
the Bethune-Peronne road near Bou-
%chavesnes. They hold intact, too. the
town of Bouchavesnes and other
points along the line captured i'm the
offensive started Tuesday. Their
capture of a powerfully organized
German trench system south of the
lie Priez farm, near the road running
west from Rancourt to Combles has
put Combles in further jeopardy.
Fighting in the region of Bou-
chavesnes has been sa%nguinary.

their line of communication from Pc
rome northward. the Germans threw
violent attacks against Liable wood
and Hill No. 76, south of Bouchaves-
mes. and retook both places. The
French, however, returned v~iciously
to the attack and after hard fighting
finally drove out the Germans and
kept the ground they had won. In
the two days fighting more than

tant changes are reported.

county has been in good demand this
year and a number of fine farms
have changed hands. Thus far this
summer a local real estate agent has
himself sold farm land in Moody
county to the aggregate value of
$4,000. other real estate men
have done nearly as well.
Iroquois-John Baldridge recently
sold a 400-acre farm near here for a
consideration of $4,000, this being
one of the largest real estate trans

narrow escape from death when he,
while playing with other children in
the hayloft of the barn. fell on a

entered his back and p|unctured the

down by an automobile driven by
Latimer Williams, of Winfred. In
the car besides Mr.. Williams were
Miss Effie Price and a Miss Thomp-
son. One OF the horses was killed
and the occupants of the automobile
badly bruised. There is a dispute as
to whether the driver of the horses or
the driver of the auto were to blame
for the accident.

and Mrs. Fred Ogden, well known
homesteaders of this part of the
Rosebud country. secured possession
