Retirement ConDIete.
Italy's retirement to behind the
PiaTs river defense line had been
practically accomplished today. The
magnitude OF the task Of withdrawal
to behind the Piave line was made ap-
parent with the arrival Of countless
refugees from that territory. II was
estimated there are now million
homeless people in Rome, many In
dire need.
Military exigencies necessitated the
complete civil as well as military
evacuation OF the territory between
the LlvenZa and PiGve rivers. Such
large villages and cities as Bellono,
Vlttoria. Conegliano. Parenone, Sa-
eile, and Ordergo were completely
stripped of their Inhabitants The
enemy will find them literally shells.
Guard Art Treasures.
The abandonment Of territory to the
invaders heretofore has not been on
such q large scale as the retreat
across the Tagliamento was only par
tial because the italian command
never intended to make its fnal stand
before the enemy along that line.

An Appeal Fer Help.

Early in September another armed
rising was expected. Kerensky appeal
ed to korniloff for help and at the
same time he negotiated with. the
Bolsheviki. Steps were taken. with
Kerensky's approval to enroll armed
bands Of workmen in Petrograd. More
than 10000 OF these were provided
with rifles and ammunition. This or
ganization owed allegiance exclusive
ly to the soviet and has probably
played an important part In the events
OF the last few days.
after its reputation and arrest of
Korniloff came the proclamation Of q
republic In defiance OF the oath taken
by the provisional government that 1t
would not change the status OF the
country pending the decision of the
constituent assembly. Thereupon there
was convened q democratic confer
enee, the so-callOd preliminary parlia-
ment, from which moderate lenenta
were almost entirely excluded.
Pressure Applied to Kerensky.
Early in the course of the revo-
luton the provisional government had
been compelled by the soviet to form
ulate its war aims in accordance
with the theory OF no annexation. no
indemnity. The failure OF the pro-
posal to hold an Interbelligerent
socialist conference with the view OF
bringing democratic peace which
followed after the too obvious ex-
PLANTATION OF its German origin did
not discourage the bolshevilxi from
pressing for the early termination Of
the war.
Evidently IN response to pressure
from this quarter Kerensky 4 few
days ago told an American journalist |
that Russia was worn OUT but all |
his reiterated concessions did not
satisfy the extremists. The food |
crisis which continued in Petrograd |
1nabated was becoming more keenly !
,el as was the approach OF winter |
and the dearness OF fuel
THE last straw was the dismissal |
of General Verkhovsky, whom |
reproachrd openly for
siding with the bolsEevilSi insistence
on Immediate peace. His dismissal
was interpreted by the soviet a. q
move in the direction Of q counter
The departure Of the war

Opera House did their bit by adver-
Using the dance on their movie
screens.
We also wish to thank the members
of the Machine Gun company, es-
pecially Casey Jones, who helped US
decorate.
Due to the many donoations the x
penses were few, so the auxiliary IS

BARLEY NOT A HUMAN FOOD
Az a Bread Cereal II Is Little Used,
As An Animal Food Il Is Of
Great Value.
National Crop improvement Service.

Watbuuu VtUV Improvement 00TtI00sJ .a- .
For many centuries barley, tho
corn" of holy writ, was used as a
bread cereal, but 1t has practically
gone out Of use, except that Norway
and Sweden use 1t in their peculiar
bread disks, which are about the size
and shape Of a monograph record.
Barley in itself does not make a
a good bread flour and could be uti-
lized only by mixing it with wheat,
something which the American miller
considers dissertation Of his shrine. 1t
has a peculiar favor and is just as diff.
ferent from wheat bread, as either
corn or rye.
But as q stock feed, It has many
merits. Astthe kernels are too hard for
some animals to relish, it may be
crushed by passing 1t between rollers.
If finely ground, the gluten makes
a sticky mass as soon as IL is wet.
and this peculiar property makes It
difficult to make it into good bread. It's
main use in the American kitchen has
been to use 1t as pearled barley In
soups. It is used some in breakfast
food. through a mating process, but
unless We assAmerican people ere on
the verge Of starvation. we win never
use barley 90 q regular diet.

curious Alaskan Landmark In tho Ton.
gass National Forest.
No other locality Is quite like "Old
Kassan National Monument" a unique
tract Of land held by the United States
government. 1t consists Of th~irty-eight
acres within the Tongass national for
est, Alaska, and the tract embraces the
well known abandoned Haida Indian
village Of Old Kassan, situated on
Prince Of Wales island, in southeastern
Alaska, about thirty miles west Of
the city Of K%etchikan.
The village was abandoned by the
Indians about ten years ago. Among
the relics which remain there are about
fifty Indian totem poles, five or six Of
which are classed as exceedingly good
specimens. In the deserted village
there are also eight large square build
tngs which were originally construct
ed according to the peculiar plan Of the
Ha1da Indians and which, it is stated
by those best qualified to know, repre-
sent the best specimens Of Haida ar
chitecture that now exist. The largest
OF these buildings is approximately 40
by go feet In size and Is made entirely
Of round and carved timbers.
There also remain a number of In
dian graves, with the typical small
grave houses erected by the Alaskan
Indians. "Kassan" is said to be the
Indian word which means "a pretty
town." and all reports agree that the
village was well named. The fact
that the village was occupied by the
Indians for many years explains the
local name, "Old" Kassan, by which
1t is widely known. Since the village
was abandoned by the Indians the
buildings have been rapidly falling
INTO a state of dilapidation and decay.

lNotIunAt STop Improvement ooTVIce.J
A farmer in Hubbard Co., MINI.
planted twenty acres of beans from
which he received BIT bushels, selling
them in the field for $1,185. This is
not the highest record.
The Michigan men and the Colorado
men and. in fact, all states are turning
to beans with a great deal of success.
There r three main principles to
be observed in the control of weeds.
They are: hrst, preventing the weeds
from going to seed on the farm; sec.
ond, preventing the weed seeds being
brought to the farm, and third, in the
case Of perennials, starving out the un.
derground parts by preventing them
from making top growth.

1t Is q known fact that the simple
little act OF testing all seed corn be-
tore planting will add many bushels to
the corn crop and will pay the farmer
about five times as much per hour for
his labor as will any other farm labor.
There fs nothing hard about it, all
methods Of testing seed corn are easy
and inexpensive. You can test the kerr
nels IN blotters or ~rag-doll' testers
at home. making them yourself, or
you can invest in a commercial test
or that will last for years. Your agri-
cultural college. county agent, or the
q. s. Department Of Agriculture at
Washington will be glad to- give you
full particulars.
Seed testing will stop one of these
leaks in farm practice that change
