The greatest wheat crop in the his

What is true of wheat is also true
Of oats and what is true of wheat

The Northwestern lines cover a
goodly portion of the wheat and corn
belt of Nebraska and the data rela-

The report for last week indicates
that throughout Nebraska all of the

yielding twenty-five to thirty-five
bushels per acre and generally is
grading No. 2, hard. Oats are turning
out anywhere from thirty to sixty
bushels per acre and are grading

London, July 23.-The entent allied

western and eastern fronts with al
most clock-like regularity, and in a
manner almost completely to prevent
the central powers from making any
considerable transfers of troops from

General Sakharoff has the enemy

sages of the Styr and Lipa, the Rus
sian troops are already beyond
Berestechk, having in two days fight
ing taken prisoner from the Austro-
Germans, 800 officers and 10000 men.
In addition the Russians have cap
tured a quantity of war booty. The
number OF Austro- Germans captured
in the operations on the eastern fronts
since July 10, now total 10000.
By his success in driving the Aus
tro-Germans from the Styr-Lipa
salient, General Sakharoff has estab-
lished his forces firmly on the right
bank of the Lipa tip to about twenty
kilometres (about thirteen miles)
above its confluence with the Styr.
Meanwhile, General Kuropatkin Is
still pressing forward against the
forces of Field Marshal Won linden

Ship Due to Pass the Capes :
Before Today.
CRUISERS NEAR COAST

Norfolk, Va, July 23.-From the
same source that Norfolk learned
two weeks ago tonight of the ap-
proach of the giant German mer-
chantman submarine Deutschland,
came prediction today that the
Deutschland's sister ship, the Bre-
men, would pass in the Virginia capes
before Monday.
There was no official authority for
the news, but it spread quickly and
generally was credited. Soon after
nightfall, several vessels, some of
them carrying newspaper corre-
spondents and photographers, started
for Cape Henry through a heavy rain
storm, hoping to welcome the ar
rival of the undersea craft.

1t was believed that if the boat
reached the coast during the night, it
would head in Immediately, as the
storm made conditions most favor
able. 1t was expected to go directly to
Baltimore, stopping only to pick up
a Maryland pilot.
In spite of the news from Balti-
more that the customs records there
did not show the clearance of the
Deutschland, what are regarded as
No1,ahIa rara,roI harn
it cleared today. Marine men point
out that, for neutrality reasons, the
records might be withheld from the
public until the submarine had been
given full opportunity to reach the
high seas and elude the allied war
ships waiting off the capes for its re-
appearance.
Cruisers Near Coast
There are several cruisers few
miles from the coast and they are in
constant touch with developments in
Chesapeake bay through British trad
ers leaving the harbor. One of the
warships fired shot today across the
bow of an unidentified merchantmen,
about ten miles out to sea. Accord
ing to persons, who witnessed the in
cident from Virginia beach, the
merchantmen hove to at the warning
shot, and after being spoken by the
cruiser, was allowed to proceed.
Observers at Cape Henry reported
tonight that two warships had drawn
in closer than usual and for the first
time were continuously using their
powerful searchlights to sweep the
entrance to the, bay. The outlines of
the ships were plainly visible despite
the rain. They were said to be barely
outside the three-mile limit. "a
