BRITISH HOLD
FAST TO Line
Germans Make Terrific Attack
at GOnneIIieu.
BATTLE is STILL RAGING
The Entente Allies Reoccupy High
Ground Trench Southwest of Bour-
Ion Village

lon Village.
With the British Army in France,
Dee. 4.-Employing great forces of in
fantry in succeeding waves under ter.
rife artillery concentration, the Ger.
mans made a second attempt to pierce
the British defenses in the Gonnel-
lieu sector.
The British, strongly REINFORCED,
were meeting the onslaught firmly at
all points, according to latest reports
The battle was along a considerable
front, from La Nacquerie southwark
toward Vendhuelle. The Germans
succeeded in entering La Vacquerie
but were immedi?te'y elected.
In the course of the day the attack
spread northw1rd toward Masnieres
1t was one CT tremendous fierceness
British troops reoccupied a section
of a trench on the high ground south
west of Bourbon village on the en-
brai front, which was lost on Filsy
The British previously had remained
virtually all their old line west CT
Bourbon wood
The Germans attacked the British
positions at La Vacquerie, southwest
of Cambria. and an hour later it was
reported that they had been success
fully beaten off. The attack followed
three futile attempts made by the
enemy to take this village.
The first German attack at La Vac.
querie was accompanied by heavy ar
tillery, machine gun and rife fire.
Driven back, the Germans twice
more attempted to capture the town,
each time with similar results.
There was little change in the stu,
alton al MasniereS, the Germans hav,
ing occupied the town after the volun-
tary withdrawal of the British Satur-
day to dispense with the sharp salient
which bulged out about the town. Brit,
ish artillery continued to make Mas
nieres most uncomfortable place to
hold and the Germans were making
all possible use of the catacombs I'M
der the town for cover.
The British Strengthening operation
was carried out while the Germans
were still in a state of some disorgan-
ization after having been forced from
Les Rues Vertes, a southern suburb
which they captured Saturday after
noon and held for a brief time. AS a
result the British withdrawal was &C.
ccmplished in good order.
General Byng's troops pressed near
to the village of Villiers- Guislain and
along the ridge southwest of that
place and their line now is fairly near
the town.
1t is estimated tsat the Germans
had about twenty divisions for their
assault on Friday, which, except for
the first Ypres battle, is regarded as
having been their heaviest attack on
the British.

Try 1t On the Cabbage Fly

County Agriculturist RAIDER is
of the opinion that cedar saw
dust will prove a repellant to the
cabbage fly, and is advising gar
deners to test it out on such veg
etables as radishes, turnips, cab,
bage, cauliilower, kale, onions,
etc, by applying it one half inch
deep along the rows before the
fly seeks the root of the plant to
lay its eggs. Thus far no treat
ment has been a complete sue
cess in exterminating the pest.
Perhaps cedar sawdust will
prove to be the long looked for
remedy. 1t is worth trying out,
anyway.
