THE WAR IN BRIEF

Again the French and British war offices record gains against the Ger mans on the line in France. Strik-
 ing in the Champagne region on a front of l,500 meters west of Maisons de Champagne the French recaptured all the positions previously taken by the Germans on Ridge 1S5, and also invaded q German fortined works One hundred prisoners were taken in the operation. In the Woeyre region near Seicheprey raid on the German trenches was successfully carried ont. while attarks by the Germans between Soi5sons and Rheims. were repulsed
 The British on their part of the front in France entered German trenches in the vicinity of Bouchasves. nes, north CT Peronne, and aiso car ried ost raids successfully 10 the south of Arras. In the latter sector the German positions were bombed and many casualties were inflicted on thelr occupants.
 Heavy artillery activity is in prog ress in the Ancre and Somme sectors. according to Berlin. The German war office reports the stopping of a French attack south Of RipOnt in Champagne. and also the destruction of sixteen entente airplanes and two capive bal. looms in attacks by the Germans. The London war office announces that nine German machines were brought down or driven down damaged, and admits that five British machines are missing,
 On the other fronts, except in Meso- potamia and Persia, wnere 1t is as- rumed that both the British and Rus eians are still harassing the Turks. only mnor operations have been re- ported. As yet the full details of the capture of Bagdad by the British have not been made public, although an- nouncement was made in the British house of commons that there was req son to believe two-thirds Of the Turk ish artillery had been captured by the British or thrown into the Tigris, and that in addition large numbers of pris- oners and quantities of materials of all kinds were taken
 Again the Turks are reported by Petrograd to have made a further re treat in Persia, this time leaving a position nea Bisitun, 20 niles north east of Kermanshah, and retiring toward Hadjiabad. Bisitun was oc- cupied by the Russians.
 In Macedonia there has been an in- crease in the artillery activity in the Presba lake and Cerna river sectors, probably presagng all early recon of hard fighting in this region
 The possibility that Germany is to have another foe arrayed against her is indicated in an unofficial dispatch from Picking. which says the Chinese house of representatives has approved the governments diplomatic policy, which includes the severance of diplo~ matte relations with Germany.

PLENTY Of SEED
FOR BEET STANDS

Z. .
Based on government weather reports
and notes from the press to April 3,
1917:
Following the light rains or snow
over the beet sections early In the
week, weather has been generally clear,
with temperatures averaging slightly
higher The late spring is beginning
to worry the growers, and the frost re-
manning in the ground prevents the
moisture from sinking in, leaving the
roads and fields ia q most impossible
and unavailable condition in many dis
tricts. A few clear days, with strong
sun, would work wonders in drying out
the soil and permit blowing, little OF
which has been done.
The press reports that distribution, Of
seed by the Great Western Sugar Co.
has begun at the Loyeland, Colorado,
factory. The allotment is understood, to
be the same as last year, say fourteen
pounds to the acre. Fearing a scarcity
of seed last year, the company al first
announced that only twelve pounds of
seed 70 the acre would be allowed, but
the receipt Of additional seed later per-
mitted fourteen pounds to be distribut-
ed. There is said to be plenty OF seed
available for this year,
Adyices from Michigan are to the
eject that an adjustment has been
made between the farmer and sugar
companies over the price to be paid
for beets, the latter allowing the adj
vance asked by the growers. Both sides
appeared firm in their ideas, and little
contracting was being done, with prob
ably not more than half a normah acre.

Rebels Out Crop short
An interesting and valuable item was
contained In our cable from Cuba In the
sliape Of report that Centrals bennd0
and Jobabo have finished their crop,
owing 70 damage TO property and cane
fields by revolutionists. Central Henado
made 50 900 bags crop, against first es-
tjmetc Of 2T5 000 bags, while Central
Jobabo made 90 900 bags against esti-
mate o.. 100000 bags This report Is
confirmation Of the rumors that have
been spread 10 the trade regarding
some Of the factories in the eastern end
Of the Island. This very large shortag
Of production applies to but very few,
II any additional factories, and full
account Of such a decrease has already
been taken eognizance of in the reduc,
tion that has been made in crop esti'
mates. Such shortages Of production
