front shortly after nightfall. The at attack was met with a hurricane fire from the French guns and rifles and resulted in the Germans being thrown back on their own trenches time and again. After several intellectual at tacks had been met the Petain forces were suddenly ordered to charpc the spent Germans. The movement ap-
 parently caught the enemy reserve
 forces unawares and the French were in possession of a wide strip of Ger
 man territory seemingly before the Germans were aware of their danger.

quiet prevails over the entire line where the forces of General Haig are fronting the Teuton defensive liae.
 Beyond brief artillery duels at in- tervals, the majority of which were lnaugurated by the Germans in evil dent anticipation of British attacks, there has been little activity during the past forty eight hours.
 Continued bad weather is princi- pally responsible for the lull as a steady rainfall covering many hours has reduced the country adjacent to the fighting lines to a water covered bog in which troop movement are practically impossible.

According to the official advices reaching here the Germans are stead fly falling back along the whole line from Stanislau to the Dnelster with the Russians In close pursuit
 The reports also declare that the Russians are holding on to all posi- tions won elsewhere in Galacia in spite of hard Teuton counter attacks.
 The Slavs are gradually drawing on Lemberg from three sides, one column advancing southwest along the head waters of the Bug, another Is beat ing down the Teuton defense directly east of the city and the thirdis sweeping northward toward the town along the upper Dneister.
 All indications lead to the belief that Lemberg will be in the hands of the Slavs at an early date unless the Germans are able to impose a strong er defense.

SLIGHT HOME FRUIT GARDEN
While No Less important or Numer-
Gus They Are Overshadowed by
Big Commercial Orchards.

With the growth of the commercial
fruit interests of the United States the
home fruit garden has been lost sight
of. Only few years ago the owners
of home gardens not only led in the
production of fruits, but were our au-
thOrities as to how and where to grow
them. Today these gardens, while no
less numerous or important, are over
Swallowed by the orchards where fruit
is grown for commercial purposes.
While both the home garden and the
orchard are essential to the good of
the community, they bear very differ
ent relations to the fruit interests of
the country as whole. The home
garden is always the fOrerunner of
commercial development, and even in
those localities where climatic and soil
conditions are adverse to conducting
such industries on an extensive scale
the home fruit garden of the enthusi-
astic amateur is certain to be found.
All the success attained today by the
fruit interests Of the United States has
grown out of the persevering efforts of
few men whose home fruit gardens
served not only as testing stations for
determining the fitness Of given sorts
for new and untried localities, but they

and Currants Between
Grapevines.

were the propagating grounds from
which sorts of the highest quality and
greatest commercial value originated.
The inhabitants of this country are
notably fruit-loving and fruit-eating
people. Notwithstanding this, how
ever, fruit culture has grown to be
clasSed among the specialtieS, and few
persons who consume fruit are actual
growers. The possibilities in fruit cul-
ture upon restricted areas have been
very generally overlooked, with the
result that many persons who own a
city lot, q suburban home, or even
farm, now look upon fruit as luxury.
This can all be changed, and much of
the land which is now practically
waste and entirely unremunerative can
be made to produce fruits in sufficient
quantity to give them regular place
upon the family bill of fare and at the
same time add greatly to the attrac-
tiveness of the table and healthfulness
Of the diet. The home production Of
fruit stimulates an interest in and a
love for natural objects which can
only be acquired by that familiarity
with them which comes through their
culture. The cultivation of fruits
teaches discrimination. A grower is a
much more intelligent buyer than one
who has not had the advantages Of
tasting the better dessert sorts as they
come from the tree. If every pur-
chaser was a good judge of the differ
ent kinds of fruits, the demand for
fruits of high quality, to produce
which is the ambition Of every anna
teur, as we'll as every professional
fruit grower, would become a reality.
But until some means of teaching the
differences In the quality of fruits can
be devised the general public will con-
tinue to buy according to the eye
rather than by the palate. The en-
enlargement Of the cultivation Of fine
fruits In the home garden will do
much toward teaching buyers this dis
elimination.

WHY THE EYES FOLLOW YOU
Face in Pictures Seems Always to Be
Gazing at You If Person Photo
graphed Was Looking at Camera.

You probably have noticed that some
faces in pictures seem to follow you,
also that in other pictures there are
faces which are not looking at you but
no matter where you walk, even
though it be in the direction in which
they seem to be looking, you will never
find the face looking at you. Indeed.
faces in pictures are either looking at
us from wherever we look at them, or
else they never look at us from wher-
ever we look ut them. The same is
true of photographs.
The rule is very simple. If the per-
son who was being painted or photo
graphed was looking at the painter or
the camera, then wherever you stand
he will seem to be looking at you. If
he was looking on one side, then
where you stand he will seem to be
looking on that side of you This
works very queerly if you have group
of people who are looking at the
camera when they were photographed.
If you look ut the photograph from
one side they all seem to turn to fol-
low you and then to turn back if you
look at It from the other side. But
if they were not looking at the camera
you can never get them to look at you.

MAKE WALNUT GRATING WAX
Formula Given for Making Mixture
That Thoroughly Heals Wounds
Apply With Brush.

Walnut grating wax Is made as
follows:
Five pounds Of resin, one pound Of
beeswax, one-haf pound Of charcoal
and one-quarter pound of raw linseed
oil.
Melt the resin and cut the beeswax
into small pieces. When the resin is
melted, add the wax to 1t, and after
the wax is melted, add the charcoal
and stir thoroughly. When the char
coal has been thoroughly mixed with
the resin and beeswax, take from the
stove and add the linseed oil. When
this mixture cools it is a hard black
cake.
For use In the orchard piece large
enough for the amount of grating to
be done should be cut from the cake
and melted by heat. If the weather
Is cold or If there is large amount OF
grating to be done, the grating wax
can be kept soft by putting the dish
in which 1t Is kept over some hot Goals
in pail. The wax should be applied
by means Of brush.
This is very good wax for graft
ing purposes, as 1t will thoroughly
heal the wounds and does not soften
during hot weather.

KEEP OFF RAILROAD TRACKS
Not Thoroughfares for Public and to
Avoid Accidents People Should
Be Kept OFF.

Railroad tracks are not thorough
fares for pedestrians. If we are to
consider safety as precaution that
every citizen should seek, we should
encourage the passage of the pending
legislative bill to keep the public from
walking on the tracks of the railroads,
says the Indianapolis News. OF course,
exception Is made where the right-of-
way extends across streets, station
grounds, farm crossings, etc. EN-
ployees and persons transacting bust
ness with the railroads are not to be
classed as trespassers under the pro-
posed law. Railroad accidents have
been vastly reduced in numbers where
tho use of rights-of-way to foot traf-
&c has been denied. The safety first
eSsa2ittee of the chamber of com
merce has Endorsed the pending bill.

American idea railroads in Germany
are often without objective. Along
the borders of Flanders stretch for
miles tracks which in days of peace
seemed to have no reason for exist
ence. When war came they were the
highways over which artillery, mu-
nitiOnS and men were hurried to bat
tie.
The success of Germany'S operations
against Russia in Poland has been
largely due to the network of her rail
roads near the Polish boundary. For
many miles the Russians were not in
touch with their own borders, while in
the meantime the armies of the cen
tral powers We're being quickly moved
over interseCting lines of traffic. The
Germans We're able to advance so far
into France because of their seizure
not only of Belgian lines but of the
very heart of the French Northwest
ern railroad. The wonderful defense
made by the French at Ncrdun was
largely an outcome of the efficiency of
the Eastern railroad, which made it
possible to convey ammunition and
supplies. In addition to the main lines
there We're back of the fortress scores
of miles of the narrow gauge tracks,
built of American rails and using
American engines, over which shells
were moved to points where they We're
most needed.
