Crops are looking fine in this section
to be planted on the late order and the
cool spring we have had. The most
corn and cane and peas have been plant

parts, and some are still planting peas.
This section was visited by heavy
rains and wind on June 8, but there was
very little damage done to growing
crops.
We have very good fruit crop this
season and if nothing happens to the
gardens we will have big vegetable
crop also, and we would be glad if some
one would open up cannery in this
section so we could save all the surplus
food. Who will be the first one to get
good outfit for this purpose
There were twenty two registered at
this place on June the s. We do not
know at present whether any escaped
|, that were the right age or not.
Well. we do not have any idea the old
hen has escaped the high price of food
stuff this time.

Washington, July II. III President

The presidents proclamation con-
tains the first Official aolnow wledgment
that valuable information may be
reaching Germany through German in
surance companies
The nature of marine and war risk
insurance is such, it says, that
those conducting il must OF necessity

GERMAN TORPEDO
SUPPLY WEAKENS

Washington, July II. - There is
some reason to believe that the Ger.
man torpedo supply is weakening, says
the United States Navy league. The
increasing frequency with which mer.
chant ships are lodging German tor.
pedoes suggests that the German tor.
pedo is deteriorating in speed and in
accuracy of fire at long range.
AT the outset" says the Navy
league statement, the Germans were
extremely careful to conserve their
torpedoes Merchant ships were sunk
by gunfire where possible
But the arming of merchant ships
and the constant improvement in the
allies system of defense has driven
the submarines under water and fore
ed them to use torpedoes in almost
every attack.
The increase in the number of sub
marines has added further to the
strain on the German stock of torpe
does This unprecedented expendi
ture of torpedces is beginning to tel
on the effectiveness of the U-boat war
