IN CONTROL
 !. OF WEST FRONT-BAKER

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29-In the first official statement, Secretary of War Baker declared this week that supremacy on the western front in France had definitely passed to the En- tente allies. The American soldiers are about ready to be hurled into an important section of the battle line while the allies are more than holding their own. War experts profess to see a weakening in the German line and assert that there can be but one result when the American soldiers are thrown against the Germans, a breaking of their defenses.

BIG STRIKE Is MADE
 ON UNITED OATMAN

Word received in Kigman this week was that an important strike had been made on the United Oatman at Oatman. High values were en- countered where two veins came in contact in the tunnel, about 500 feet in, and at a depth of about 500 feet. Details of the strike were lacking.

PROVIDING cows WITH SALT
Ono Of Things Easily Forgotten While
Animals Are on Pasture In
Summer Months.

One Of the things so easily forgotten
In the summer months while the cows
are on pasture Is to provide them
regularly with salt. The easy way
not to forget 1t Is to place rock sak
where they can get at it every day,
either in the stall while they are be-
ing MIXED or In a trough or box In the
pasture where they can lick 1t when-
ever they have the desire TO.
Studies made at the Wisconsin sta
ton by Professors Babcock and Car
lyle showed that cows actually re-
quire salt to thrive properly, the
amount required depending upon the
character Of the feed which they re-
ceive,

WARM WEATHER DAIRY HINTS
Cleanliness 10 Of Great importance
Cream Separator 10 Essential
Weed Out Poor Cows.

Unclean milk is especially danger.
Gus during warm weather.
Remember that the sun is an excel
lent disinfecting agent. Sun the milk
and cream utensils after washing.
No dairyman can afford to be with
out a good cream separator. A sepa-
rator removes practically all the fat
from the milk. BY the ordinary skim
ming method from 10 to 25 per cent Of
the butterfat is left In the milk.
BY carefully testing and wedding out
the poor cows you can increase the
average production of each COW by
more than forty pounds Of butterfat
per year.
No animal that gets only feed
enough to support life can produce a
profit. Feed your cows a balanced ra-
tion.
When farmer makes and sells but
ter and feeds the skim milk to poultry
pigs and calves, he is not sending away
a great deal of his farms fertility.
Keep the farms fertility on the farm.
Some farmers would be better OF
II they sold their cows and bought
milk and butter. Yet they don't realize
that they are losing real money on ev-
cry "boarder" In their herds. Test
each COW.
