NOTHING NEW.

Just to show that the Safety First
idea is not as some may suppose, of
comparatively modern origin, note the
following from Shakespeare:
"'Tis much he dares;
And, to that hauntless temper of his
mind,
He hath a wisdom that doth guide
his valor
To act in safety"
Bush beans should be planted in
hills eight to ten inches apart when
ever the weeds are likely to be trouble
some. Four or five seeds in each hill
should give a good stand of plants.

PLENTY OF COAL IN MARKET

$4,000 GERMANS LOST IN
FLANDERS BATTLE SINCE
JULY /, FRENCH REPORT
Estimate of 55S,oOo Teutons En-
gagged in Tint Section of Front
Thirty Divisions Withdrawn.

WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES IN
THE FIELD. Aug. 2s.-Germany has
lost over $4,000 men in the Flanders
battle alone since July /.
The figures were complied to-day
when the assembling OF data obtained
from prisoners was completed.
Prisoners said thirty-seven German
divisions Approximately b55.0OO mem
had been engaged In the Flanders sector
since the first OF last month.
Thirty OF these (RrDroximRtely t60.-
900 men) have been withdrawn on ac-
count OF losses.
The German High Commands usual
practice Is to withdraw a division for
reorre nizatton after It's losses have
taken from 1000 to $500 men.
Taking this as n basis. It can be as
sumed that II Germany has withdrawn
thirty divisions. her losses must be
anywhere from 10000 to $4,000.
A conservative estimate would put
them considerably above $4,000.
Seven German divisions which were
on the Flanders front on July l are still
there.
These estimates OF losses do not take
into account the huge casualties which
the enemy has sustained OF late around
Verdun and the Chemin des Danes.

rates have jumped from so to 100 per

their Weakened condition through lack
Of proper food.
The German Government is making
frantic efforts to conceal the dysentery

TO have nearly doubled in the last few
months. Every effort Is being made to
reassure the German public.

that the shortage OF coal at the

ity OF the railroads to deliver at the

Similar testimony was given by

the Pennsylvania Railway.
Edward c. Sullivan, a director OF
the Interborough. said that the coal
contracts were awarded 10 the Ber-

were responsible. lie had never
heard OF bids being asked for. Al
