RESUME OF WAR.

The offensives of the Italians from Tolmino to the Adriatic is going on de- site stubborn resistance of the Aus trians and the difficulty of terrian. Meanwhile the British and French forces in Belgium and on the sectors of Lens and Verdun in France, have made progress against the Germans and have held, notwithstanding violent counter-attacks, all the ground they won in recent fighting.
 Germans In East Active.
 On the eastern front near Riga, the Germans have started what may turn cut to be another big offensive and also are attacking the Russian lines in the vicinity of Dvinsk and near Brody and Tarnopol, in northern East Galicia.
 Italians Very Active.
 The Italian offensive has resulted in the capture of more than 13,000 pris- oners and thirty guns and gains of great importance have been made all along the line. The Italian warships which are aiding in the attack at the head of the Gulf of Trieste have switched their guns from the battle line and showered shells on Trieste, the big Austrian port which is the ab- jective of the Italians.
 Vienna Admits Defeats.
 Admission is made by the Vienna war office of victories of the Italians at several points south of Tolmino and the capture of the town of Selo, near the head of the Adriatic, but ii is asserted that the offensive, especi' ally at Selo, cost the Italians thous. ands of men killed or wounded, in ad dition to more than $500 prisoners
 Lens Salient Active.
 Not alone have the Canadians re pulsed all German counter attacks before Lens, but they have taken ad ditional positions from the enemy in front of the important coal center Near Ypres the British have pene trated the German line to a consid erable depth. On both these sectors furious fighting is still going on.
 German Efforts Futile.
 Tuesday night and Wednesday morn ing the German crown prince deliver ed heavy counter-attacks against the newly-won French positions northwest of Verdun, where at several points the Germans succeeded in re-enterine them. These positions, however were soon retaken. North and north west of verdun the Germans made similar attempts to re-capture lost ground, but the artillery and rife firt of the Frenchmen forced them to de sist.
 More than six thousand Germans have been made prisoners during tht three days of fighting in the Verdur region.
 On the Aisne front Crown Prince William still continues his attacks al various points along the Chemin des Danes and adjacent territory but he
 
 line
 Aerial Raids. |. Aerials bombing raids of great inten sity are being carried out by the Brit ish and French aviators over German positions in Belgium and intensive ail fighting also is in progress. Zee brugge, the German submarine base in northern Belgium, is reported tC have been heavily bombed again. IT fights in the air the British Tuesday accounted for F German airships, bu F of their own machines failed to re turn to their bases.
 Sub Loss Small.
 The loss of British shipping b! mines or submarines continues at th' low water mark. Last week only Il vessels of more than 1900 tons an' three of less tonnage were sunk.

ed 5000 yards and held it all, despite a furious rain of shells.
 Troops Demand Advance.
 The troops tonight are so pleased with their great victory that they demand to be led forward to drive the Germans further back. The honors of organizing the successful offensive, belong, besides to General Petain, to Generals Fayolle and Guillaumat.

DEED RECORD BOOKS
ARE NOW COMPLETED
Work Which Has Required Five
Years Proves Increase in Land
HGlncS

Clarence Hight has this week been
putting the finishing touches upon
the books in the Register of Deeds
Office upon which he has been work
ing for the past five years This
work consisted of making new in
deXes and re-indeXing old records,
the whole covering a period of thirty
nine years. The oldest index cover
ing n period extending from 1909 to
1893 has been entirely renewed and
in so doing Mr. Hight has added the
location of the property the nature
and date of the instrument and date
of record. With the exception of
about 20 years the indexes are com
pletely modern now and probably the
best preserved of any in the state In
order TO complete this work it was
found necessary to read over $4,000
deeds
1t is very interesting to note the
difference in the value of property
since the early records, Land con
sidered valueless between fifty and
one hundred years ago is now of in
calcalabie value. In fact could our
ancestors of even the last generation
have been keen enough to have fore
cast the rapid growth of the country
and consequent increase in land val
uation. the wealth of Somerset Coun-
ty would have made the Dutch des-
cendants of Manhattan Island seem
poor. Perhaps the most interesting
conyeyances are the grants from the
King of England of Bingham's Ken
nebec Purchase, a tract of million
acres, but now lost in innumerable
small tracts.

1t is rumored that Green Brothers,
proprietors of the five and ten cent
store, who at one time were consid-
ering removing to the Charles F.
Ward store, have signed ten-year
contract for their present location in
the Goodwin block. However true
this rumor of the contract may be, it
is very probable that the Ward store
will not be occupied by Green Bros.

CHANGE IN DATES FOR
SOMERSET FAIR
Other Fair Dates Are Now Being Ar.
ranged

Al a meeting of the Somerset Agri-
cultural Society, held at the Office of
the Independent-Repor Saturday
afternoon, the dates for this year $
fair were set for Thursday, Friday
and Saturday, September 20, p and
%. Earlier in the season it had
been expected that the fair would be
in the preceding week, September
Is, IA and Is, but this was found to
conflict with the Central Maine Fair,
hence the above change There are
many reasons why the dates now Sc
lected are better than the earlier part
of September chief among which is
the possibility of getting better ex-
hibits of apples and farm products.
When the fair has been held, as in
previous years, the first or even the
second week in September, an exhibit
of nicely colored apples or well ma
tured vegetables was rather out of
the question. OF course the later
date faces the liability of cold, un-
favorable weather but the society
thinks best to accept what little
chance there is in this for the sake
of securing better exhibits.
The Eastern Maine Fair at Bangor
will occur August 2Sth to 3lst. in
elusive; the Maine State Fair at
Lewiston will take place September
3rd to 9th inclusive; and the Central
Maine Fair will be held September
II. l.. Is and IA. This arrangement
makes a circuit of fairs, very nicely
arranged 10 wind up with Skowhe-
gan. Bangor the last week in Au-
gust. Lewiston the first week in
September. Waterylle. the second
week in September and Skowhegan
the week after Wateryile To make
the situation ideal, the Four County
Fair at Pittsfield ought To occur the
week following SkoWhegan and the
fair at Hartland the week of Octo-
ber first. Fakers, horsemen and the
public generally are accommodated
when il is possible 10 move from one
big fair to another in succeeding
weeks. Something like the above
succession. after the Skowhcgan fair
IS sure to be arranged for If Hart
land and pittsheld do not care TO
come in in that way, Madison and
Pennington will be sure to do so
Other important matters were dis
Cussed al last Saturdays meeting
and action was taken amending the
Constitution and Bylaws so that life
membership tickets will be sold i'll
the future for $50 instead of $40
II has been we'll understood that
there have been many herds of pure
bred cattle which do not come TO the
somerset Central Fair in fact, do moi
go to any fair A special effort will
be made to bring out these animals
This year and for this purpose il
seems likely that the premiums of
thorobrod animals, neat stock, sheep
and swine, will be literally increas-
ed. As only the exhibition of better
animals serves Il useful purpose in
promoting the interests of agricul-
ture. it is possible that the premiums
on grade stock will be either dccreas-
ed in number or lessened in amount.
These subjects We're thoroly talked
over and action thereon Will be taken
at the next meeting.
