RED CROSS XMAS SEALS TO HELP

WHEAT ACREAGE
 HIGH; YIELD LOW

Washington, Dec. 19. - Winter wheat this year, planted or the larg- est acreage ever sown in the history of the country, showed on December l the lowest condition on record. A forecast of a crop of only 540,O0G,O00 bushels was made today by the De- partment of Agriculture. The final production, however, will be above or below that quantity, according as con- ditions hereafter arc better or worse than the average
 Winter wheat sown this fall for next years harvest aggregates 42,- 10000 acres, and it's condition on December l was 79.3 per cent of a normal, the department announced. The acreage is per cent more than the revised estimated acres sown in the fall of 1916.

losis association and local Red Cross chapter is planning to cooperate in the care of civilian relief cases in which tuberculosis is a factor Apart from actual work with the soldiers the National Association has under e''ahen to follow up the men who have been rejected from service on account of having tuberculosis. A campaign to reach these men through their state health boards and local anti-tubercu- lOsis associations is being conducted with great success.
 All this work requires the support of the public, for it vitally concerns every community in the country from which the army is being recruited. Red Cross Christmas seals give the public its opportunity to help carry it out. The goal set for the seal fund this year is $3,000,0O0, and the Amer ican Re dCross and the National As sociation are appealing to every man, woman and child to buy three times as many stamps this year as they

French intensions or are preparing
for an offensive. A series OF feel
ers" has been carried out by Field
Marshal Won Hindenburg at various
points, principally around the Laon
plateau. One of the chief. of these
was an effort to make a breach in the
French line at Vauxaillon where the
German shock units temporarily
ousted the French from a short
trench system on the slopes OF Mon
key mountain, on which it was I'M
p%ortant that both armies should pos
sess o-bservatories.
French counter attacks immediate
ly regained all the ground lost except
a salient measuring a few yards. IN
which the German position is most
precarious. On this occasion the
German shock troops advanced in
their shirt sleeves without packs, al
ter a terrific bombardment in which
every yard of the adjacent ground
was searched by shell.
The German shOckers, as soon as
they succeeded in their determined
and courageous effort, turned over
the trenches they had gained to the
seventy-eighth German infantry di-
vision which, however, failed to hold
them when called upon for a defen-
sive effort. The correspondent visit
ed the entire position in this sector
Saturday and found the French firm
" established while the Germans on
the other side of the hill, were de
prived of observatories and thus theil
artillery vas blind.
Another lively affair occurred II
the vicinity of Mont Carnillet where
the Germans and French attacked
almost simultaneously. the former
with the object of recovering promi
nent points they had lost som
weeks ago and the latter with the i'm
tention of gaining freer elbow room
AS it happened, a unit consisting o
only 60 French grenadiers and port
able machine guns, occupied the Pc
sition coveted by the German ant
not only drove off the attacking force
but pursued them and captured a con
siderable length of German trenche
in doing so. killing more than ~
Germans.
On the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES also tn
Germans launched Friday a numbe
of attacks. some of which resulted /
most desperate engagements. In tn
neighborhood of La Royere farm tn
ground was covered with Germa
!, bodies while the only success th
Germans achieved was to gain pos
/, session of a short section Of a Frenc
/ front trench.
