Amsterdam, June The house
hunter in Holland in the days Of the
great world war of 1917 is assuredly
an object of pity. The scarcity OF
houses for rent at Amsterdam, TIE
Hague and other centers has greatly
increased because of wars interference
with the building industry and
Of the influx of foreign population IN
10 the Netherlands. At The Hague,
for instance, of Belgians alone there
are thousands who have temporarily
settled The lack is particularly felt
in respect Of partments-the Dutch
upper house" or Clover house
ranging between $500 and $500 in
rent.
So keen was the hunt after houses
IN Amsterda nIecently that high re-
wards were offered for addresses o.
houses to let. Races have taken place
and bribing has been practiced to find
homes. If in the morning house
was to let, in the afternoon it was let
In the brief meantime thirty or fortY
prospective tenants had runk the bel
and asked to see it.
The result is that landlords have
become more and more particular, and
their demands have multiplied. A
special law was passed by parliament
To prevent the undue initiation %
rents, so that the natural effect OF the
demand has been artificially prevent
ed. Certain classes of houses are un-
save by purchase, and the
purchase prices have risen enormously,
certain houses changing hangs rapidly
at an ever-mounting price.

The heaviest tonnage Of sugar beet.s
eyer reported officially in California
has been raised on a half acre plot OH
the Timken ranch, north of Imperial,
according to E. c. .Rittue, government
beet expert, who, with Paul |. Dough-
crty, went to examine the stand yes
terday. Rittue, used 70 heavy crops
Of beets, was astonished at the crol
Imperial Valley press., 1917-06-27

and at the size of the beets. One of
them was brought to the county farm
bureau yesterday and weighed IL
pounds and 10 ounces.
1t was forecast by Mr.. Rittue that
the sugar content of the beets must
be comparatively low, because of the
enormous stand. However, sample
of the beets grown on this ranch has
been tested and found to contain 1f
per cent sugar, fair average.
twenty per cent sugar is extra good.
After learning the history of the
plot, seed, planting, irrigation, etc,
Mr.. Rittue was of the opinion that
100 much water was given the beet5
and that they might have been thinned

what the beets showed a growth never
Lefore equaled in the valley and per
haps in California. The Investigations
Of Mr.. Rittue and the enterprise of

the best place in the country to grow

THE LIBERTY LOAN CYCLE.

Through the sale of Liberty Loan
bonds the United States is borrowing
large sums Of money from it's citizens,
its business men, farmers, bankers.
wage earners, merchants, manufactur-
ers. The government collects this
money and disburses it in two ways.
Part it expends itself and part it
loans our allies. The United States
and these other governments spend it
for American products and American
labor and it goes back directly into
the hands of the people, the Ameri-
can business man, farmer, banker,
wage Garner, merchant and manufac-
turer.
This is the cycle. John Smith the
farmer and Thomas Brown the wage
Garner each has purchased Liberty
Loan Bond paying down the initial
payment of per cent. On June 28th
they made the 18 per cent payment,
depositing the amount in their banks
and sending checks to the Federal Re-
serve Bank of their district. The
Federal Reserve Bank collects the
check and redeposits the money with
the local banks. Later the Treasury
Department draws against it and the
money is again lodged with the Fed
eral Reserve Bank. 1t is almost i'm
mediately withdrawn from the Fed
eral Reserve Bank either by the Unit
ed States or by some foreign govern
ment engaged in war with Germany
to which the United States has ad-
vanced money and is paid out for
American products or labor. Some of
it is spent for farm products and raw
material, and some of it for manufac-
tured products, thus going back into
the hands of American citizens.
Therefore the money paid in by
the above mentioned John Smith and
Thomas Brown on June 28th in part
payment of their Liberty Loan Bonds
may have gotten into their hands in
time to make up part of their pay
ments made July 30th.

MARCH OF GERMANS
IN RAIN OF DEATH
Moved Down in Large Numbers By
British in Advance Upon
GlencOrSe Wood.

British Front in France and Bel
gium, Aug. IL (By the Associated
Press ).-Hand to hand fighting of the
most furious nature, in which bayo-
nets and clubbed rifles were utilized,
developed in the Glencorse wood yes
terday as result of a German coun-
terattack by which the enemy re-
took the southeastern portion of this
elevation. Glencorse wood was the
southern extremity of the line
taken by the British in Fridays often
sive and since it commanded the sur
rounding the Germans determined to
regain it at any cost. The Germans
preceded their infantry advance by
an intense bombardment from guns of
all calibres and then sent troops for
were met by a strong artillery fire
and as they approached the wood were
moved down in large numbers by ma
chine guns. But the Germans were
willing to pay the price for this i'm
portant position and the infantry was
hurled forward through rain of
death until the wood itself was
reached.
Two British battalions, the Queens
Royal West Surry and the Bedfords'
made valiant fight against the nu-
merically superior forces, but were
forced gradually to withdraw, battling
every inch Of the way with their
bayonets and their rifles used as
clubs. In the northwest portion of
the wood, however, they made such
determined stand that the enemy was
unable to continue his advance. The
German losses were exceedingly
heavy, being greatly in excess of the
British casualties.
The Westhoek ridge position which
the British took on Friday morning
has been held against numerous Ger
man counterattacks and the line ex-
tends along the forward crest Of
the ridge with its left on the Ypres-
Roulers railway and with the right
merging into the Glencorse wood.
German prisoners say that in Fridays
offensive the British were aware that
an attack was impending.
.. The fighting along the ridge and. in
Glencorse wood on Friday was most
bitter and sanguinary, large part of
the ridge being taken wiR< the bay
onet. Heavy casualties were inflict-
ed on the defenders. At one strong
ly defended point the Germans held
out for three hours with machine gun
fire and then the position was rushed
by the British, the Germans being
forced out.
Glencorse wood also was filled with
machine guns and the Queens and
Bedfords, who finally captured it, had
to fight their way through verita-
BILE hall of lead.
