OPEN TO BApAuME

London@The Allies won spectacu-
lar successes in the Somme region.
Two vital strongholds were captured,
and at a third point the British took
a village which puts them a mile
closer to Bapaume.
Combles fell to the French and Brit
1sh troops, who entered it together,
each cleaning out half of the town
whose capture had come to be re-
garded as OF the greatest significance.
The British also took Thiepval, the
Hohenzollern@ redoubt and the high
ridge east of it. The Importance of
this advance surpasses In military
advantage even the taking of Combles.
Thiepva1 had been fortified with an
elaborate system of heavily wired
trenches. The Germans regarded it
as impregnable, and their desperate
resistance at Thiepval had held up
the British left wing for months
ever since the Somme offensive be-
gan. The village marked the north
ernmost limit of the Allies gains.
The British also took Gueudecourt,
Al AO ACAL III L1C4L III NuCu0G-
court is three miles from Bapaume.
Combles fell easily. 1t could not
hold out after the capture of Fregi-
court and Morval and all the high
ground commanding it. So we'll was
this recognized that the Allies artil-
lery did not even fire upon the village
itself. Then the khaki clad British
and the French in blue gray entered
the town together, each attending
strictly to its own section. The Brit
ish cleaned out the part on the left
of the railroad, while he French took
the section on the right of the line.
The work was accomplished within a
few hours.
In the afternoon the French pressed
on. They took a small wood north
of F~regicourt, half way to Morval,
and also the greater part of the strong
ly fortified ground between this wood
and the western horn of st. WAIST
wood, which is east of the road from
Peronne to Bapaume.
TIE Germans had accumulated vast
stores of ammunition and supplies of
all kinds in their underground strong
holds in Combles. The Allies cap
tured all this. Prisoners came in too
rapidly to be counted, and when the
official report was filed fifty machine
guns already had been enumerated in
the booty.

COMMON TAPEW0RM IN LAMBS
Not Believed That They Are Respon-
slbIe for Many Deaths Of Animals,
Says Western Expert.

(By l. r. NEWSOM. Colorado Agricul-
tural College Fort Collins. Colo)
The common tapeworm Of lambs Is
one that has a habit of getting into
the duct leading from the liver, and
for this reason many who have exam
ined sheep, dead of disease, have sus-
pected the tapeworm of causing the
death. II might be well to state that
more than 60 per cent OF all western
lambs have these tapeworms. as evil
denced by finding them on the kill
ing floors at the large packing houses.
While 1t must be admitted that in a
few instances they may cause some
trouble, yet 1t is not believed that they
are responsible for many of our lamb
losses.
During the siege of the Kansas
horse disease some man unfamiliar
with the normal conditions in horses
for the first time found Palisade
worms In the abdominal arteries of
dead horses. He at once jumped at
the conclusion that these worms were
responsible for the disease. Had he
known that approximately 95 per cent
OF all horses have these same worms,
his reputation might not have suffered.
II is rather common for veterinar Ians
to diagnose tapeworms in dogs, and in
about 95 per cent these diagnoses arr
correct, but that the tapeworms in
these animals are responsible for dis
ease is not at all evident, except in a
very small percentage OF cases. So II
is with these tapeworms in lambs.
They can always be found in posting
any large number of animals, but that
they are responsible for any serious
disease is evident only in few cases,
