 Though Fort Douaumont is the seat of the new German attack, the adjacent line from Thieamont farm to Naux is also under heavy artillery fire. followed here and there by in- fantry rushes.

 Corn--More Rain Needed.

Little Rock, June Warm, dry weather during the week caused de- cided improvement in all crops throughout the state except in a few of the central counties where it was too dry Crops were not ser iously injured in the dry portions and were greatly benefited by the showers Monday night, but more rain is needed.

After careful examination Colonel Churchill said he had come io the conclusion that there were IT. million of these men unaccount- ed for, He desired to know what had heeome of them Believing this 70 be a fit subject for investigation he suggested that a small commis- sion of members of the House be appointed to look into this matter and report in secret session if ne- cessary.

Fruit and Economy.

The prospect for a generously sufficient crop of fruits of various kinds is said by the expert forecast CTS to be good. Cherries, peaches, plums. apples and the berries are expected to be plentiful. With this in mind. the federal government bureaus concerned with such mat ters and societies of one kind and another formed for the betterment of living conditions are urging that time he taken by the forelock and preparations made for conserving more of the fruit crop than ever heretofore. All of ls know that the waste in our fruit Is enormous.
 Before autumn is again at hand it is predicted that the cost of living will be even greater. All staples, 1t is said will advance in price, and, at the same time, everything required by human beings. not only to feed them but to clothe and shelter them, will follow the upward course of the food cost. The dollar that buys less now than fl bought a year ago is likely to buy still less six months hence Nor is there any prospect of a downward trend with
