Now the whole belt of earth to the east was hidden by a rising bank from the smoke barragNs which increased the volumes ot the fumes sent up by the shells and the mines.

 Even while the glamour was at its height, the first flush Of dawn crept rosy red mp the sky above Ypres.

The IOlloWllB tteV''N WI ture of Messines Ridge by the Brit ish forces, June z, is one of the most ,o,,,rlohla narratives that has come to light concerning the war.-QEd)
 For seven days we have been she'll ing the enemy positions p''iiess'!' never letting them rest. Under tlls treatment the whole topography CT the country has changed Woods have been swept out of existence, fill .lopes have been strtrred and laid bare, hnd villages Hike Wytschaete and Mess,,es have disappeared.
 at the scme time we haN+ kept .tinually ,aid.ng the enemy ,renca ! ,s .r and down the line. From prls- oners taken in these raids we have learned of the tremendous havoc wrought by our smelling and those cantured have told that it was i'm possible to get food up to the front line for five days.
 Simultaneously with the merclless pounding of our guns and the unceas- ing raidng by our infantry, our air men have waged a brilliantly sue cessful warfare.
 The weather has been almost con- tinuaily dry, with intense heat; but last evening, June 6, between six and seven o'clock 9 very violent thunderstorm with torrents of ram swept over large part of the bat tleheld All night the thunder has rumbled continuously in competition with the guns and the sky has been aficker with sheet Tightening. Up to almost the very hour set for the at tack the heavens were overcast, so that the full moon showed fainbly through thick veil.
 Throughout the ngnt the horizon on the new battle front was won derful sight. with the flashing of our guns lighting up the low clouds and the constant fountains of Very lights and flare red and green rising from the German lines, while somewhere to the north of Wytschacte great rud- dy flames rising and falling for hours showed where our shells had caused a hugh confagration.
 By half past two the clouds had almost disappeared, and the full moon shone royalty so that In the soft light against the tightening sky be- yond, one could see plainly the larger details of the whole circuit of the hor- izon from Ypres to Messines.
 During the hours immediately pre- ceding the dawn we did not shel heavily; it was mere desuitory she'll ing which gradually fell as. the morn ing approached. As we ceased, ar almost perfect hush descended foi awhile, in which one heard the fleet ing notes of a nightingale. Then however. the Germans grew more ac- tive, the air was full of the whining ping of scrapnel searching for cer- tain batteries of ours, almost as if i, had been full of bees. To our righ' the enemy began throwing large cali. Der high explosives. Only the frs two of the great things hld passed shrieking overhead when that be- gan which plotted our sound ant knowledge of everything else
 How many mines went up at once l do not know, but it was nearl! twenty. Many of these mines wer' made over a year ago and since thel had lain under German feet undis covered.

prepared by the United States Depart
-IIliuI~ ment of Agriculture.)
Since the corn-root aphis which at
tacks the roots of corn throughout the
states east of the Rocky mountains, is
assisted in its destructive work by a
brown ant, measures of control must
take into account both the insects.
The presence of the aphis frequently
is not suspected because it passes al
most its entire life underground. 1t is
a small, stout, soft-bodled, whitish in
sect and may be seen in infested fields
by pulling up an unhealthy corr plant
and closely examining the roots and
surrounding, soil. The small brown ant
which works In conjunction with this
pest cares for the eggs of the aphis
over winter and in the spring, when
the eggs hatch, the young aphids are
carried out and placed in contact with
the roots of certain wild plants, such
as @smartweed. If corn is planted in
such infested places, the ants transfer
the ,aphids to the roots of the corn
plants. The aphids sap the corn of
its nourishment and often cause heavy
loss to the crop.
jGhl Measures Of Destruction.
Timely cultivation and repellents
are the best measures to destroy or
drive awayiJthe Tenemies. 1t is too
late to iapplSy the Observation-Disclosures
remedy but plans, well may be made
for taking fall measures which will
place the pest at a disadvantage next
year. Early fall blowing, followed by
frequent deep disking in fields dam
aged by root Daphids, is a good prac-
tice from the standpoint of community
control, and also has its advantages
to the individual farmer because the
blowing disturbs the ant colonies, kills
many of the aphids, and destroys the
weeds upon which they live. The disk
ing also prevents the recolonization
of ants and prevents the growth of
weeds, thus reducing the number Of
aphid eggs.
Use Of Repellents.
If 1t is impossible to practice cult
walton measures, repellents may be
used to advantage at planting time

Big IMPORTANCE OF
SILO TO ANY FARMER
Economy in Feeding Will Be in
Great Demand This Year
SiIage Solves Problem.

The Importance of the silo this year
will be understood when we consider
that under ordinary conditions the
silo will save about 40 per cen of
corn crop used as silage. When we
remember the value of feed and the
corresponding value of cattle and
sheep we will realize the saving by
putting corn in the silo.
Every farmer that has cows, sheep,
goats, beef cattle and other animals
will need silage. And now is the time
to prepare for the silo.
OF the silage crops corn is the best
where corn is the surest and best
crop. But where sorghum, milo, kafir
or feterita are the surest and best
they will be the crops to plant. In
other words, the crop hat will pro-
duce the greatest tonnage of the best
silage will be the best crop for the
silo. And any of the crops mentioned
will make good silage If cut at the
right stage of ripeness and properly
packed in the silo will make fine feed.
Economy in feeding will be in great
demand this year. To provide this an
abundance of silage will be needed.
With silage 1t will be an easy matter
to winter cattle and sheep and a little
silage for the work teams will be
beneficial to them.

SPRAYS TO CONTROL
PESTS ON CABBAGE
Powdered Arsenate of Lead With
Little Soap Added Is Recon-
mended by Expert.
By c. C. VINCENT, Department OF
Horticulture. Idaho University

(By C. C. VINCENT, Department OF
Horticulture. Idaho University
No doubt many gardeners have no
ticed the white butterfly with one or
two black spots on the fore wings
flying about the garden in close proxi-
nifty to the cabbage plants. The eggs
deposited by these insects hatch into
the worms that eat the large holes in
the cabbage leaves. The house wives
have seen these snail-like pupae when
removing the outer leaves from the
cabbage.
BY a little effort on our part, these
worms can be held in check by using
a~rsenical sprays. Powdered arsenate
of lead one-half pound to % gallons
of water, with a little soap added to
make the spray stick better, sprayed
on the leaves of the cabbage will do
the work. One teaspoonful of paris
green to n pint Of flour, sprinkled
over the plants when the worms ap-
pear, is also good.
As there are two or three genera
lions of these insects a year In Idaho
1t may be necessary to spray several
times.

tons upon the use of winter rye and
vetch in this connection are given by
them.
AFTER the grain is harvested pillow
and thoroughly prepare the seeded

of two bushels of the former and
20 to 80 pounds of the latter to the
acre. Both the rye and vetch are quick
to sprout and will come up before the
quack grass gets a chance to O
Winter vetch makes an abundant fall
growth and covers the ground like a
carpet. In the spring both the rye
and vetch will resume growth at a
rapid rate, until at corn planting time
these crops will be from two to three
feet high. Thereupon the rye and
vetch can be turned under for green
or cut for hay, and the land
planted to a cultivated crop at once,
with slight chances of quack grass
making an appearance.
Like clover and alfalfa, vetch is a
legume and as such is valuable as a
soil improver by means of the nitro
gen it takes from the air and restores
to the soil through it's roots. Hence
the ~vetch-rye treatment for quack
grass can be recommended as doubly
useful"

next spring. The object is to repel
the ants by the use of an odorous sub
stance offensive to them, thus prevent
ing them from colonizing the aphids
on the corn roots and driving them
from the treated fields. The measure
is intended only to drive away the
ants, the presence of which is essen
tial to the life of the aphids. Mate
rails that may be used for this pur-
pose are oil of tansy, tincture of asafe-
tida, oil of %sassafras, anise oil, kero-
sene and oil of lemon. One of these
is mixed with a chemical fertilizer

USE VETCH AND RYE
TO KILL QUACK GRASS
Careful Tests Have Been Made
by Officials of Wisconsin Seed
Inspection Department.

Are any of your fields infected with
quack grass?
If SO, and the field is too large to
summer fallow, there is still another
way. "vetch will fetch it."
BY sowing winter rye and vetch on
well-drained soil Immediately after
the grain crop is harvested the first
step will be taken in a process which
has been tried and found effective in
choking out quack grass.
Careful tests have been made or OBJ

1t should not be applied directly to
the seed as such treatment may injure
it, especially if the season be wet. One
fourth of a pound of oil of tansy
should be diluted with two quarts of
alec and n quart of water; and two
pints Of asafetida diluted with one
and one-half gallons of water. Either
repellent in this quantity thus diluted
is sufficient for 100 pounds of bone
meal, this amount being enough for
