Large audiences yesterday afternoon
were interested in "Resista," an
attractive young girl, who weighs but
ninety-efgilt pounds. and who, dressed
like doll, pushes strong men who
seek to lift her above the stage floor
when she chooses to use her apparently
supernatural power of resistance. To
convince the audience that there was
nothing attached to the young woman
to assist her, she was carried into the
aisles of the theater that those who
wished might try to lift her there, and
on the stage her shoes and stockings
were removed and her entire wardrobe
was changed. And yet four big men.
who easily raised her with a block and
tackle, were powerless to keep her sus-

GEESE WARN BRITISH |
Of ATTACK BY DULGAlS
Raiders Frighten Birds From Roost
and Oflcer Gives Alarm

Of the Associated. Press.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
WITH BRITISH FORCES IN SA-
LoNIKI. August 30.-This is the story
Of how the geese Of Kale-zir gave the
warming and saved British detach-
ment.
When the Bulgars left their native
fastnesses and came down into the
plains their advance was halted by
certain famous river and historic
lake. A British company was holding
the upper lake, for 1t was divided into
two parts connected by the river. The
company was charged with responsible
ity for the upper lake and five miles of
the connecting stream as far as Kale-
Zir. They had absolute command OF the
lake, thanks to the motor boats, and a
crossing there was inconceivable. but
the river flowed through a maze Of
reeds and swamps and forests. most
parts of which appeared absolutely i'm
penetrable from the British side. A
feeling of comparative safety pervaded
the British camp.
Heard Flapping Of Wings.
Then one evening the orderly officer
set out from the camp on his bicycle to
visit two outposts up the river. nearly
two miles from the camp. 1t was very
dark AS he neared the sentry he
heard the movement of wings, and dis
tinguished nock after flock of geese n.y.
ing from their night rest among the
reeds.
Looks odd" he remarked to the sen-
try: then to a sergeant. rIl take one
man. sergeant. and we'll cycle down the
path and have a look"
The path ran quarter of a mile
along the marsh and then died an
abrupt death in a sitting fence of reeds.
The officer and his orderly dismounted
and listened. They could discern over
in the swamp long line Of men in sin
gle file.
Back at the picket post the orderly
sent a man to warn the camp, while he
remained behind to keep the enemy
raiders under observation
Raiders 200 Strong.
The raiders were 200 strong, under
command of a German officer. They
kept to the path until just before IL
came into a clearing. Then they halted
and prepared to attack. They got into
loose sort of open order and came on
quickly. At that moment the British
of1cer fired four shots. Immediately a
light over the British camp appeared.
The glare was dazzling. There was a
moments silence and then a roar OF nre.
1t was a complete surprise. The raid
ers were punched close and must have
had fifty casualties in the first fusil-
lade. They made no attempt to resist,
but flung everything away and made
for the maize fields.
The first person picked up was the
German officer in charge of the enter
prise, who had been hit in the thigh.
Altogether there were twenty-five dead
and fifty-eight wounded. while thirty
five more surrendered during the morn
ing at different places and more kept
giving themselves up for several days
Probably not more than five or six ever

Those who use bordeaux mixture
frequently and in quantity will find tt
convenient to keep concentrated

indefinitely if the water which evap-

day you wish to commence spraying,
suspend so pounds Of copper sulphate

water. Stake 30 pounds of lime in
another barrel. Add water to make 80
gallons of lime milk. When bordeaux
mixture is needed, stir both stock bar
rels we'll and take four gallons from
each stock barrel. Dilute the copper
sulphate in one barrel by adding
enough water to make 25 gallons. Di-

center, mounted on trestles, the most
elaborate specimen of the undertaker's
art that could be imagined.
1t was of polished rosewood, finely
worked with silver mountings, worry
massive. On the name plate was deli

BELGIAN HARE IS VALUABLE SOURCE OF FOOD.

vegetation that would otherwise bel
wasted, the cost can be made event
lower.
The Belgian and Flemish giant rab-
bits are recommended for meat produc-l
ton, as the ordinary tame rabbit ISL
smaller and develops more slowly.
Stock Of Belgian hares may be bought
from breeders in nearly all the statesI
at 81 to So each. They may occasion
ally be had from pet stock dealers.
Fancy pedigreed stock is not required
for meat production.
Rabbits are easily kept. They eat
hay, grass, lawn cuttings and green
vegetation of many kinds. Females
should be allowed to breed when eight
or ten months old, and during the year
should raise four filters of about six
young each. Well fed, the young reach
marketable size when three to four
months old and average from five to
six pounds live weight.
The department Of agriculture has
published a bulletin on raising rab-I
bits which will be helpful to those who
wish to engage in this pursuit.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
The meat supply Of the country may
well be supplemented, biologists Of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture point out, by the raising of rabbits
by youths and adults not engaged in
military or other national service, or
In regular Industrial employment.
These animals already have proved a
valuable source Of food in Europe dur
ing the present war. In the United
States they might be raised in back
yards of cities and towns as well as
on farms.
The Belgian hare breeds rapidly,
natures quickly, and produces palat-
able and highly nutritious meat. The
cost Of production is less than that of
any other meat, not excepting poultry.
The supply can be greatly increased
within few months, without requiring
space that may be needed for the pro-
duction Of crops. Practical experience
has demonstrated that rabbit meat can
be produced in unlimited quantities at
a cost Of about six cents pound; and
by utilizing lawn cuttings and other
