Deep Wedge Driven Into Austro-Ger

and the Strategic Situation Is De-
cidedly In Favor OF the Slavs.
London, July 11.-Several villages

al prisoners and three field guns taken
attest the success of the second days
attack by General Korniloff in Eastern
Galicia.
Already this branch of the Russian

heavy counter attacks to slow up the
rush of Korniloff's men.
The strategic position in this sector
is now clearly in favor of the Rus

points to the probable speedy fall OF

lines. A dangerous salient already has

The latest attack on the Chemin
des Danes plateau, the high ridge
which the Germans lost in the spring
campaign and are now trying desper-
ately to recover, was even less fruit
full than others have been at the out
set. The Germans were not able even
to get near the French lines at the
Hurtebise monument and The Dragon,
where their attacks were launched
and they fell back with severe losses.
General Haig again is nibbling al
the German lines in Belgium. During
the night ne took another bite into the
territory east of the Messines ridge

of Wytchaete.

Washington, July 11-lncreased diff

features.
Convinced that the bill is loaded
down" and that the provision for gov
ernment purchase of all distilled
spirits is unconstitutional and either
must be amended or stricken out SEN
ate leaders held conferences while the
debate proceeded on the floor in an
effort to devise amendments to pave
the way for final passage of the bill
The Democratic steering committee
met before the senate convened, but
was unable to reach an agreement and
definite action was deferred. Sena-
tors said the situation among the
steering committee members was as
chaotic as that i'm the senate.
To meet the constitutional obiec-
tions that his amendment illegally inn
poses upon distillers the price to he
paid for their liquors Senator Smoot
proposed to add an amendment to an
other section of the bill. Another
plan considered by the steering com
mittee was to reeommit the bin to the
agriculture committee with instruc'
tions TO correct the Smoot amendment
and also eliminate cotton. steel, iron
and possibly other products from the
government control proposed.
Hope for agreement later on
changes which will remove most OF
the objections and secure a final vote
by unanimous agreement without re
sort to the pending cloture motion was
expressed by several leaders.

fall of 1916 about 100000 acres in
North Dakota, $4,000 acres in Mime
sofa, SO, 900 acres in Wisconsin, and
5000 acres in South Dakota.
Rye should be sown more generally
on the sandy lands along the Lakes
in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio
and New York and in New Jersey. so
an increase of 10000 acres is recon-
mended for Michigan, $4,000 for In
diana, and $4,000 for New JERSEY.
Rye also should take the place of
many of the old pasture and hay lands
Of New York, Pennsylvania and the
New England states. Rye is a safer
crop than winter wheat for such
lands. Pennsylvania has much land
more suitable for rye than for wheat.
so an increase of 10000 acres is sue-
gested for that state. New York is
asked for only 5000 acres increase
Out IL ID III0I n larger IN
crease in rye may be possible in that
state.
Some increases over the 1916 SOW
ings are asked for in the cotton belt.
It is estimated that last fall there
was sown in the cotton belt about
100, 900 acres of rye. 1t seems advis-
able to recommend that at least ESQ.,.
900 acres of rye should be sown in the
cotton belt this year, replacing some
of the winter oat acreage.
The states in the corn belt are asked
also to enlarge considerably their rye
acreag over that sown in 1916, as the
lighter soils which are not especially
we'll adapted for wheat could be
planted to advantage to rye.
Special Methods to Increase Yields Of
Wheat and Rye.
Specialists of the department Of
agriculture and the State Agricultural,
colleges hope that by better methods
the average yield per acre will be al

together. This is because rye can be
planted safely on many fields with
less risk than wheat. Further, rye
can be used as a substitute for wheat
as a bread grain by those who are
accustomed to it. Rye succeeds on
poorer soils and with less fertilizer
and in colder climates than wheat,
and for these eason should be
planted in preference to wheat where
it has been proved a safer crop. The
farmer who, because of an attractive
guaranteed price for wheat, may be
tempted to plant wheat rather than
rye in a locality where rye is the more
certain crop, takes a speculative risk
of loss through winter killing and
destructive wheat diseases which is
u~nwarranted. While no guaranteed
price for rye has been authorized by
congress, there is every reason to ex-
pect that the price of rye for the next
year will bear q satisfactory relation
to that Of wheat and, therefore, JUS
tify the planting Of rye where the
present experience with it indicates
its superiority. Detailed recommends.
tions for an increase in acreage to be
planted to rye this fall over wheat
planted to rye this fall over that OF
1917 are found in the accompanying
table.
Basis Of Increased Rye Acreage.
Fall-sown rye should supplement
spring wheat to a considerable extent
in the spring wheat belt. An enlarg.
ed acreage of rye in addition to the
usual spring wheat sowings will hel1
to guarantee a plentiful supply Of
bread grains next year. A disaste,
such as that which was caused by thu
combined effect of rust in the spring
wheat belt in 1916, and winter kill
ing in the winter-wheat belt las,

insured against. It is recommended
therefore that the acreage of rye b.

lease maintained wherever there is a
fertilizer shortage and will be in
creased in other sections. Much ed
vocational work will be done to make
this desire an actuality, and in this
campaign the most successful grow
ers will have a prominent part. For
instance, it is stated that on the land
that could be sown to fall wheat this
autumn, it is possible materially to
increase the yield per acre by put
ting into practice some principles that
are already we'll known to most farm
ers. These should appeal especially
to those who cannot increase their
usual acreage without doing injustice
to other crops which should be grown.
These principles may be summed up
as follows:
~ Plow early. Give the plowed
land two months to settle before SOW
ing where possible.
(2) Compact the late-plowed land
with roller and harrow.
(3) Don't pillow after a cultivated
crop. Prepare such land with disk
and harrow.
az Make the seed bed a fit place
for the seed.
(5) Sow with a drill, sound, plump,
clean seed of adapted variety.
(6) Prevent losses from smut by
treating infected seed with formalde-
hyde.
CO Make the soil fertile with ma
nure or fertilizers applied judiciously
where needed.
(8) Reduce winter killing by fol-
lowing the above suggestions.
Tremendous Effort and Cooperation
Necessary.
The accomplishment of this great
increase of wheat and rye acreage
without disrupting correct farming
practice will call for tremendous ef-
fort on the part of farmers. How

Philadelphia, Pa. Victims Of eye strain

wear glasses, will be glad TO know that
according to DR.. Lewis there is real hope

they have thrown them away. One man

they would pain dreadfully. Now they
