GERMANS HAMMER AWAY
AT VERDUN.
Artillery Such as Reduced Namur
and Liege Harnesses. De-
tenders.

Pa riS, April 3.-A final effort
to batter down the French forts
before Vcrdun is being made by
the Germans.
Forty two centimeter guns. the
most powerful in the world, are
being used. Those are the size of
the guns the kaiser's forces had to
use to demolish the Belgian forts
of Namur and Liege.
BY their capture of foothold
in CaiIlctte wood south Of Fort
Doualmont, the Germans are less
than five miles from the city OF
Vcrdun, on the northeastern side
Of the fortress.
The forty-third day of the bat
tie OF Nrrdun finds the Germans
driving lfard against the French
works. but, despite small gains,
which the French have admitted,
there is no alarm felt here over
the outcome of the fight.
The heaviest of losses are be-
ing inflicted on the Germans.
who are forced continually to
hrin4 up fresh troops to fill the
gaps in their lines. The German
losses are said to be five to. one
heavier than the French.
German artillery is never silent
day Or night.
The smoke of burning wood
lands and houses. mingled with
the thick, black fumes from the
bursting shells, forms pail over
the whole battlefield.

BRANDEIS WINS IN SUB-COM.
MITTEE BY VOTE OF 8
TO 2.
Republicans Are Against ! Him
Confirmation in Senate
Practically Assured.

Washington, April by a
straight party vote the subcom-
mittee Of the Senate judiciary
Committee today recommended
the confirmation of Louis D.
Brandeis for Associate Justice.
There is little doubt that the
nomination of the Jewish lawyer
will be confirmed by a majority
in excess Of 62 Of the &C members
of the Senate when a vote is talk
en-. He will receive every one
of the Sc Democratic votes and at
least seven and possibly those of
10 of the Republican Senators.
The vote by which the Judic-
larry Subcommittee decided today
to report favorably was 3 to 2.
The votes of Senators Walsh,
Chiffon and Fletcher, Democrats,
were favorable to Brandeis, while
those of Senators Cummins and
Works, Republicans, were against
him.
The report of the subcommit-
tee will be made to the full Judi
ciary Committee on Monday.
Each member of othe subcommit-
tee will be expected to file re-
port giving his personal reasons
to justify his vote.
The report of the Judiciary
Committee to the Senate will
probably not be made for week
or more. 1t is a foregone con-
clusion that it will be favorable
to Brandeis.

CAPITOL CORRESPONDENCE

Denver, Aug. 15.-Few persons, other
than those directly interested, realize
the vast improvement that has taken
place in the financial condition of the
state during the last year and half.
The creditors of the state, however,
who frequently had to assign their &C.
counts against the state at . heavy
discount, realize it. The heads Of thu
educational institutions, who often
were at their wits ends to devise ways
and means to keep their doors open,
realize it; and SO do those who havo
charge Of the states unfortunate and
criminal classes. -tI g. l. fi
Two years ago, (August 10, 1914),
the current Indebtedness of the state
represented by uncalled warrants was
1906, 1858. BY January 10, 1918,
when this administration took charge
this amount had been increased to
5000, 10000. On August 10, 1915, this
had been reduced to $3s3,51659. This
is reduction Of over 100000 or at
the rate Of more than $1,000 day since
this Republican administration went
into power.
This splendid record has been made
possible by the harmony that has exist

original entry no residence shall be re-
quired on such additional entry il the
entryman is residing on his former en-
try: And provided further, That this
section shall not be construed as affect
ing any rights as to location of soldiers
additional homesteads under section
twenty-three hundred and six Of the
Revised Statutes.
It is considered that the passage IF
this law will be of great value to Colo
radoans. Many of the homesteaders in
the dry farm sections only took up 16O
acres in their original filing and since
then adjacent land has been taken up,
making it impossible for them to file
on an additional 100 acres adjacent to
their own farms. They often need
more land and the new law will enable
them to obtain what they need for the
proper development of the district as
for more successful farming on their
own part.
Further information will be given at
the land office.

PROSECUTOR BE-
LIEVES IN EARLY MARRIAGE

Cleveland, Aug. 8.-After an investi-
cation of 400 criminal cases James J.
Lind, Cleveland chief police prosecutor,
has found out that ninetenths of all
crooks are unmarried. Two-thirds of
the men jailed were between the ages
of 81 and 80 according to his figures,
available here today.
"It seems that conditions in unmar-
ried life tend to make men criminals
or that persons with criminal instincts
are inclined not to marry" concluded
Lind after his investigation.
"In 400 cases which passed through
my office there was no definite eco
nomic condition that would result in
crime.
"Only about half of the married
prisoners had children and many of the
married ones were separated from their
families. ... m
Gas a rule women who take up crime
are also single or at least separated
from their husbands or families.
"This is hard to prove because wo-
men prisoners are not inclined to tell
the truth. When a woman lands in
Jail she generally claims to be married
and says if her husband hears of her
predicament he will forsake her forever.
She also claims to be the mother Of
several small children, dependent on her
care-all of which, nine times out of
ten, is untrue.
eff married man gets into trouble
he generally commits real crime, not
a misdemeanor. If married man with
children finds his way behind the bars,
it is usually money troubles which have
placed him there.
"But if any particular class of
human family is a menace to the rest,
unmarried men are the guilty ones. n
"The way to lessen crime is to al
vocate early marriages. What man
needs to keep him out of trouble is
good home environment.
elf mothers realized this they would
cease opposing early marriages.

.ncilage cutter and an engine.

encllage cutter and an engine.
The size of the silo will depend on
the size of the herd, as two inches
should be fed off daily to prevent
spoilage. The cost of a Acton silo of
this type should not be over $50 or 500.
If you are an upland settler you can
build trench silo in very short time
and it will cost only about two days
labor or less. With plow and scraper
dig trench some thirty feet long,
eight feet wide and six feet deep. No
cement will be required in this kind of
silo. If you do not have cutter, put
the corn in whole, laying the stalks
parallel across the trench.
In digging, let the ends slope so as
to drive in at one end, unload and
drive out at the other. This helps to
pack the silage and excludes the air.
The sides should also be well packed.
When the trench is filled with corn
stalks, cover with from foot to 1s
inches of straw and then seal with dirt
so it will be higher in the middle.
Feeding should be done from one end
rather than from the top. Silage put
up in this way keeps well and the cos:
of construction of this form of silo il
only the labor of digging the trench.
The size Of the trench will depend
upon the number of stock and the
length Of time the feeding is to be
done. If there is small knoll or hill
near the barn the trench may be dug
so that one end will be in the bank.
This silo question is becoming serious
Will you spend = day or two and dig
one Of these trenches and fill it with
corn which the stock will relish, Is you
do fruit and vegetables in the winter
or viii you allow your corn to dry in
the field and half Of 1t blow awxy1 II
you are milking cows you will find that
silage will increase the flow Of milk
shout one-third. If you take care Of
your corn it must be done in the next
month If the dry weather continues and
it is time to act.

it?" asked the lady.
