Shortly before sailing for this coun.
try he issued in England a book with
iacsimiles Of the posters and placards

cities.
In discussing these. he wrote:

maps fortunately, among them.
Even those who have lived
through the past two years at the
front tell me they cannot believe all
they have seen; how much less can
we at home grasp the grim realities
of war and OF German invasion?"
After this was written the British
army made its great advance in nor
thern France, capturing many cities
that had been held by the Germans
over two years.
In the town OF Bapaume, where
Malcolm was in the last days of
March, two German prisoners were
searched and orders found on them
were turned over to Malcolm.

Sudan Grass Fine Stock Feed.

Sudan grass was first tested in this
country in 1909. This forage plant
belongs to the sorghum family and is
adapted primarily to warm climates.
In the southern and southwestern
states, it has been found to be an ex-
cellent forage plant. Extensive trials
have been made not only at the ag-
ricultural experiment station but in
connection with the members of the
Agricultural Experiment association.
While the seasons have not been favor
able to this crop on account of the
prevailing low temperatures, yields of
% to 81 tons of hay to the acre were
secured in plot tests. Since sudan
grass hay is much more palatable than
millet hay, this grass seems to have
considerable promise as an annual for
age crop for the northern states.
