Trench Warfare is
Passing, Says Baker

WASHINGTON, Dec. "A roaliza-
ton by Germany that the trench war.
fare imposed by the allies in the west
cannot be endured and decision must
be forced at some point is the war de-
partment's view of the military situa-
ton as summarized in Secretary Bak-
er's review of operations for the week
ending Dec. l, issued last night.
The irksome pressure on the west
ern front, the review says explains
the invasion of Italy. and the deseper-
ate efforts of the Germans to regain
the lost ground about Cambrai
The review points out as a marked
feature of recent developments the
tendency toward greater activity of
movement. Trench warfare, it says, is
giving way to open fighting

Germ IS HARDENED
ON CHICAGO BOARD

CHICAGO. Dec. Corn hardened
in prices today influenced to some ex-
tent by the fact that predictions OF
larger receipts were still unfulfilled.
Attention was given also to the wide
discount at which futures were sell
ing as compared with the value OF any
good cash corn. Furthermore. an ad-
vance OF the oats market to the high
est questions yet this season counted
in favor OF the bulls. The opening,
which ranged from the same as yes
.erday's finish to nc higher. with Jan.
sl.20h and May $l19A was followed
by material upturn all around. Pro-
nounced scarcity OF offerings acted as
the immediate ground for sharp
bulge in the prices Of oats. The sus-
tanned recent export demand was gen.
orally accepted as a more fundamental
reason Absence Of support weaken
ed provisions. Higher quotations on
hogs were ignored.

offensive efforts on the front between
Marcoing and Gonnelieu.
Southeast of Ypres, in Flanders, the
British have advanced their line
slightly near Polygon Wood. Very
heavy artillery actions are taking
place north of the Aisne on the French
front. On the right bank of the
Meuse, the Germans essayed an at
tack north of Flirey in the Woevre,
only to be checked with heavy loss by
the French.
Infantry activity on the Italian front
has not been renewed, although the
are busy with troop
movements behind the lines, probably
in preparation for supreme blow
against the Italian northern front
Large Teuton forces have been in mo-
ton north of the Asiago plateau and
between the Brenta and the Pave,
but they have kept beyond the reach
of Italian guns. Artillery activity
continues heavily.

CALLS FOR MORE
WINTER WHEAT,

The winter wheat crop in Mime.
sofa is slightly better than was ex-
pected. Both yield and quality pro-
mise we'll. According to the United
States government the average yield
of winter wheat for the last four
years was 1913 bushels; of spring
wheat 1928 bushels, and of rye is
bushels. The farm price per bushe]
in 1916 for the three was $1.62, and
$l.27 respectively. There is u.s.
ually some spread in price between
winter and spring wheat-more when
spring wheat is keen. The crops d.
vision Of the State Committee of
Food Production and Conservation
in the light of previous results feels
justified in urging the farmers of
southeastern Minnesota to increase
the acreage of winter wheat as it's
production in their part of the state
is beyond the experimental stage

mittee Of Food Production and Con-

RAPE IN CORN AS A
TANkACE SUBSTITUTE

The hog-of corn is practical, but
to secure maximum results, the corn
must be supplemented. Of tankage
at least three pounds are required to
each bushel of corn. If the field
yields only 30 bushels per acre this
means using at least 80 pounds of
tankage, costing from $3.50 to $685..
Rape seeded in the corn 6 to 4
pounds per acre) before or just after
the last cultivation makes an excel
lent substitute for the tankage and
costs much less. At retail the seed
now costs about 20 cents a pound,
but where one is able to buy from
successful farmers elevators the
price is considerable less.
Seed rape in the corn wherever the
soil is heavy enough to promise a
crop-R. c. Ashby, University Farm,
