SUGGESTS BORDEAUX

grower who cares to take on a little
potato blight Insurance this wet sea-
son. A. J. Mix suggests spray OF 4-4-
so bordeaux mixture. Add to this 2
pounds OF lead arsenate paste for po-

Is cooperating with Prof. l.. ID. Mel

ell of defense is carrying on against
plant disease. Suggestions that sum

mixture be used instead of bordeaux

copper sulphate is very expensive be-

SUMMER HINTSFOR
HOME GARDENER

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Now that
radishes, lettuce. and in some sections
peas. spinach and other early crops
are being harvested, home gardeners
should be making their preparations
to utilize the freed space by planting
ot1er crops, say specialists of the U.
s. department of agriculture. In
planning for these paintings, the spe-
cialists suggest, 1t is well at all times,
but especially this year. to concentrate
efforts on the production of vegeta-
bles that have considerable food value
and on those which may be stored In
their natural condition, dried or
canned for winter use. Late Irish po-
tatoes is of the important crops that
can be grown on the freed ground.
Navy beans furnish substantial food
which is easily stored. and the pres
ent market prices make 1t worth
while in sections where they thrive
to replant space from which crops
have been harvested with this legume.
Other vegetables having considerable
food value from which choice may be
made for late paintings include sweet
corn, string beans. late beets, turnips,
tomatoes. squash and pumpkins. As
far north as northern New Jersey,
southeastern Pennsylvania. central
Ohio, central Indiana, northern I'LL
nois and central Iowa, sweet potatoes
also may be depeeded upon to ma
ture from paintings made as late as
June 10 on sandy lanh. Among the
less nutritious vegetables which may
be planter In soil freed by early har-
vests are late cabbage and cucumhers
Winter onions, fall lettuce and fall
radishes also may be planted late In
the season. II Is not essential, the
specialists point out. to walt until all
radishes, heads Of lettuce and other
early maturing plants are removed
before planting seeds or setting plants
for succeeding crops, Corn or beans,
for example. may be started in spaces
madei radish or lettuce rows. or be-
tween the rows. The radishes or let
tuue will then be harvested before
the late planted crops need all the
ground. Equally satisfactory results
can be obtained from the combina-
tion OF other early and late yegeta-
bles.

FLANDERS FIGHT GRAPHICALLY
 DESCRIBED

LONDON, Eng, December 5.-A German description of British bonn. bardment, smoke screen, attacks with 1 gas, flame-throwers and tanks follow ed by a charge of Canadians and Scots published by the Berlin Post is en- titled "In the Flanders He'll.
 For weeks, day and night" says the writer, "the British kept our posi- tion under fire. Ever fiercer burned the glowing stream that poured crack ling down upon us Every day this fire grew hotter. Our artillery re- piled powerfully. The army commun- ique spoke of a concentration of ene- my artillery fire on individual sec tors. Even we cannot describe what that means. The history of the world has never seen anything more awful. All calibres were brought into action, and crater of unprecedented extent opened beside the others were excav- ated afresh, swallowed up the old ones, spread out beyond the lime trees and threw up the hinterland. Nothing remaind intact of all that nights of hard labor under he ene- my's fire had created.
 The destroying fire did its work with depressing thoroughness, seem ing to extinquish all life, and now came the turn of the smoke shells. Thick smoke lay before our eyes, so that we could see nothing, and yet ever further forward must we push our death-defying posts. A real fog is mere. patchwork compared with this artificial fog which the British send out in order to veil their Gisposr- tions.
 When this appeared inadequate the enemy employed gas, and the evil mists came rolling towards our lines and passed over them; only our gas masks prevented every living thing from being destroyed. The gas had similar effect on our weapons; all iron was covered with thick rust
 The English now judged that they had done enough preparatory work, for suddenly drumfire started with the most terrifying effect. Shells of the heaviest calibre thundered across, with mines, machine gun vol Ieys, and hand g~enades all uniting in a blood-curdling, hellish pande- monium such as even a Dante would never be able to describe
 German nerves held out with the utmost resolution, constantly await ing the moment when the hurricane of fire would break loose. And the storm came. In the neighboring sec tor flame throwers were turned on against this murderous engine no measures avail. There is nothing for it but to get back into the rearward positions.
 And then the enemy was on us. Tank after tank loomed forward. These monsters appeared invincible, and if one of them was hit by heavy shell the guns and machine guns + 4 side were kept going unremittingly, until finally their iron hail reached our lines. And behind the tanks came Scots and Canadians. We see noth- ing but endless rows of enemies.
 "At last our reserves deliver a counter attack. Murder breaks out, afresh. The field of dead become once more battle-ground"
