Simultaneously, the German crown prince threw forward two secondary attacking forces, one north of Bezon- vaux, south of the Boise Le Chaume, and the other southeast of Beaumont, northwest of the wood. Here the French did not wait for the Germans to reach their trenches, but went out to meet the attackers, who were driven back with losses.
 FURTHER FAILURE
 Later in the day the crown prince hurled two new attacks against the Boise Le Chaume, only to meet further failure Again the French drove the Germans back with casualties and, in addition, captured 50 prisoners. On the Aisne front there has been only ar |tillery activity except for the repulse by the French of German surprise attack north of Braye- -En-Loannois.

that the manufacturers are alive to the
fact that North Dakota is one of the
best fields for the sale of their prod.
ucts in the world today and they are
anxious to show their goods on our
grounds, knowing that they will thus
reach more people of the state than in
any other way. Many exhibitors are
asking for space who have never
shown on our grounds before, and in
getting together this extensive dis
play of machinery, the agricultural
public Of the state will have a won
derful opportunity to see and Judge
for themselves as to the merits of the
very latest inventions and labor-saving
devices of the present day. AS before

TALK IN WHIsTLED LANGUAGE
FIuentIy as in Spoken
Words.

Carlisle, Pa.-That entire tribes Of
indians converse in whistled language
In old Mexico is an established fact.
This is authenticated by Harold T.
Mapes, a mining engineer, in Mexico
:or twelve years, but now at his home
n Carlisle, Pa.
MI. Mapes ayers that the Mexican
indians have q whistling v%ernacular
n which they can carry on CONVERSE
ion as auently as in words. This Ian
Euage coming additionally from the
roltecs, it is universally understood
~ the natives now. Not only are
words whistled, but sentences as well.
The Spanish language. Mr.. Mapes
rays, is unsteady adapted to it's use,
and the natives employ it upon oc-
:asion as carrying further than words,
also using it when around noisy ma
chimes and when not wishing to be
understood by others. Indian SWANS
converse with their sweethearts from
afar off, even though behind closed
barred windows. The laborer talks
with his fellow at his side and asks for
tools, using it also as a means by
which to communicate words Of anger
or signal the approach of the overseer,
Its origin is unknown, according to
Mr.. Mapes' information. He found it
nowhere else in his travels through
Central or South America.

Cheese having advanced in price,

This speed program will include
Wild Bill Endicott, George Clark,
Louis LeCocq, Ray Lampkin, and
many other we'll known speed mer-
chants driving some Of the highest
power and fastest dirt track cars in
the world, and with the splendid con
dition of the Fargo track, there should
be no question about the breaking of
the North Dakota state records. These
greatest of all speed kings and maniac
racing drivers will start burning holes
in the very atmosphere with espe-
cially constructed racing automobiles
up to 300 horse power.
Tons of calcium chloride will be
showered upon the track, placing it in
perfect condition for these great speed
drivers, and it is almost a foregone
conclusion that many records will be
shattered when the checkered flag is
waved for the last time.
Ralph A. Hankinson has been ap-
pointed by the International Motor
Contest Association to referee and
handle this big racing event and in
Other years have developed a wide
spread interest in the Sheep Depart
ment and this year this department
has received more attention than in
any year past. Provision is made for
a huge display of the wool-bearing
animals upon a scale much larger
than eve before attempted. From a
money-making standpoint sheep rails
ing is becoming more and more i'm
portant yearly and all the farmers
who either are raising sheep now or
are contemplating such a step in the
future will do we'll to spend a couple
of hours at the sheep exhibit.

the spectators, as !, is we'll known to
everybody in the racing game that
under Hankinson's direction these
speed artists will put forth every et-
fort and strain every nerve to win
every race in which>they enter. From
the start to the finish of the automo-

will not be disappointed in any way.
Never before have they been able to
offer such a wonderful list of drivers
and the fair management are conf

than satisfied with this feature
of the big show. One of the most in
teresting features of the automobile
races will be the miniature racing

drivers will not be novices in any

just as exciting and sensational races
as the men, being the leading lady

country.
