1 800 DEAD TURKS
COUNTED WITHIN
500 YDS. OF BRIGADE
Recent Attack on British Forces in Meso-
potamia Cost Assailants
Heavily.

London, April 22.-The recent attack
of the Turks ON the British forces along
the Tigris, in Mesopotamia, was made by
about 10000 men and cost them heavy
losses. An official account of the battle
experimenting the earlier reports from
the British commander, was given out
yesterday as follows:
"The enemy made his attack on the
18th and 18th with some 10000 men
comprising one whole division and por.
tions of two others. They came on in
dense formation and penetrated part of
our front. Within 500 yards of the front
of one of our brigades alone ] 200 TO
1900 dead Turks were counted"
1t is reported they are lying thick
farther out before the front on other
portions of our line. Their killed alone
on the night of April l7.lS are estimat-
ed at more than 1900. In several in.
stances attacks were led by Germans,
some of whom were killed.
Apparently the enemy supposed that
part of our troops We're isolated by
floods and that they had chance of
overwhelming the force. As matter of
fact supports were moving up at the
time
"Our total casualties, killed, wounded
and missing, were very considerably less
than the Turkish killed.

The outcome of this case may lead to
the breaking off of relations with Ger

Spouse to the latest note in the subma-
rine controversy while, very naturally,
officials have nothing to say on this
point, the action of this government in
demanding the recall of Ambassador
Dumba on the suspicion of fomenting
plots on American soil and instigating
strikes in American manufacturing
plants, forms the most recent precedent
for similar action relative TO the German
ambassador. For the first time in
months Count Won Bernstorff has lost
his temper and is endeavorng by every
means in his power to fight for the cap
ture of the discriminating papers. Stor-
ies have been circulated. obviously from
German sources, indicating that refusal
of this government to give up the papers
would be taken by Germany as an OPP
portunity to suspend relations with us,
but it Germany or Count Won Bernstorf
has any such purpose in mind, they will
need to act definitely and at once. 1t is
extremely doubtful if the full publica-
ton by this government of the Won Igel
papers would help the case Of the am
bassador, and if the kaiser should with
draw his amba ssador to the United

But the government will return to the

Smut Killed on Seed
Oats by Easy Method!

(By j. C. McAmis, Division of Ex-
tension, University of Tennessee.)
Losses Of three to fifteen bushels
of oats per acre were sustained last
year by farmers who did not kill
the smut on the seed grain before it
was put into the soil. The expense
Of treating seed oats is low. Doubt
less, the most convenient method of
killing smut in oats is to treat the
seed with formalin. Formalin is a
40 per cent solution Of formaldehyde
and is deadly poison to the smut
A pint is practically a pound, and
when mixed with 40 to As gallons
Of water is enough to treat so BUSH
els of grain.
When smaller amounts are need
ed two tablespoons Of formalin with
three gallons of water gives about
the same strength Of solution.
There are two ways of applying
formalin to the seed. The first is
to place the seed in a sack or bas-
ket and dip it directly into a vessel
containing the solution, at the same
time stirring the seed so that it will
be perfectly wet throughout. Then
drain off the surplus water and
place the seed in a pile on clean
floor or canvas and cover with a
heavy cloth or sacking of some kind
to hold in the yapor. After twelve
hours spread the seed out to dry in
a place that is free from smut. As
soon as it is thoroughly dried it
may be placed in clean sacks and is
then ready for seeding any time
within several weeks.
Another method Of applying the
solution is to place the grain on a
clean floor and sprinkle it with a
common garden sprinkler Then
stir the seed thoroughly with a SHOW
Ell and sprinkle again, repeating the
process until all the seeds are wet
with the solution. Shovel into a
