Hogs are going to 20 cents before

ficient to meet the demands of the
public. Now comes along the gov
eminent and says it must have about
100000 pounds of lard a month
with which to keep the Allies sup
piled. Considerable of it must come
from the Pacific Northwest, but it
cannot be had unless more hogs are
raised. Government experts say they
cannot understand why more farm
ers are not rushing into the hog
growing business when it is a cinch
that the price of pork is to remain
enormously high for a long time to
come. If the war should stop to-
morrow it is pointed out that the
demand for pork would be just about
as great as it is at present for the
reason that the foreign countries are
now and will be for years to come
short of their normal pork supply
and must come to this country for it.

Everyone, whether ailing, sick or

Germans First Broke Italian
Army by Surprise.
Threw Troops Into Sector Not
Under Artillery Fire.
.CADORNA is NOT BLAMED
His Wonderful Retreat Serves
To Bring SOlace.
Vast Losses in Killed and PriS-
Oners to Italy.

London. Nov. First description
of original German assault by which
Won Mackensen gained the initial i'm
petus for his great drive-admittedl
the most overwhelming maneuXer or
this kind since the war started-was
received here today. The Germans
tried new trick They opened a
deluge of shell fire. 1t was the great
est contraction of artillery the Italians
had ever undergone. 1t covered every
inch of the front-eXcept a certain
small sector. The fire did fearful ex-
ecution everywhere. At the height OF
it's intensity when italian troops were
bent under dugoutS eVerywhere-eVen
in the small sector over which the
Germans withheld their fire-the Ger
man attack came. 1t was aimed at
the small gap in the Italian line from
which the German fire had been with
held. The assaulting wave caught the
Italians there under their dugouts and
crouching in the trenches. The de-
tenders had no idea that an assault
was coming because on both sides of
them the usual preparatory artillery
fire was still pounding away and
there had been no change to bar
rage curtain.
Thus catching the Italians by sur
prise, the initial wave of the German
advance penetrated General Cadorna' s
line and started the great sweep for
ward. The tremendous German artil-
lery fire continued without abatement
as Cadorna strove to send reinforce
ments to repair this break. 1t must
have done terrible execution in the
ranks of troops sent up to head off
the Germans and Austrians.
Mastery Retreat Anyway.
With a break made in the line, the
rest was comparatively easy for the
invaders. Their preponderance in
guns and men and the advantage of a
thanking attack position forced Ca
dorna to speed his retirement
Rome dispatches indicated that de-
spite his overwhelming initial defeat
a defeat for which he was hardly
blamable on account of the enemy's
superiority in artillery-Cadorna had
executed mastery stroke in the ItaI-
ian retirement. Considering the vast
force which the Italian commander
had to move back, his losses have not
been excessive But what was more
encouraging here was that the spirit
and morale of his men apparently had
not been dimmed by the disaster

THRU OOZING MUD
Advancing Tonlmies Looked Like AMI
mated Statues of Clay.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP sININIs.

With the British Armies in Elan
ders, Nov. "A drab landscape; yell
lowish-gray mud in undulating oozy
ridges; Shiny greenish-reddish water
pools; spattered muck on naked twist
ed trees and underbrush-that is
Flanders today, around Paddlebeek
bog.
Imagine this setting and then stick
into the picture bedaubed figures
plastered with the same all-prevaiIing
muddy-drab of the ground. They look
like animated statues of clay. They
are British Tommies. They might
just as we'll be Germans so far as any
recognition from outward appearance
went-eXcept the difference in shrap-
mel helmets.
United Press readers can visualize
the sort of fighting in the British
drive in Flanders today if they can
imagine just the sort of a general
scheme of mire and bog thus indi-
Gated. In Wednesdays fighting, for
instance, British troops crossed the
Shiny, slippery. sinking bottomless
pit which is Paddlebeek bog under the
fire of the Bavarians-and got what
they set out to get.
Some Rescued From Boys.
The barrage fire squirted a veritable
wall of mud up ahead of these troops
as it struck the quavering swamp.
Behind it the Tommies holding their
guns aloft swan thru the same viscid
mess. They twisted and fell rs they
leaped from hummock to hummcc6.
Many men lost their footing, plunging
face down in the muck. Some were
so inextricably mired that their COM
rades had to yank them out. Gun
barrels were choked with the mud:
cartridges gummed with it. Thru it
all the Tommies went on, philosoph-
ically but swearingly, cleaning smear
ed up guns and fighting tooth and
nail when they came to cIinches with
the enemy.
The British held all their gains to-
day despite Bavarian coupter-attacl.s,
wnere the fighting at times was of
the bitterest character.

Arkansas Posses Chase Men Who
Robbed Bank of $4,000.

Glenwood, Ark, Nov. Posses
continued in pursuit today in search of
the five unmasked men who late
Thursday afternoon held up the bank
of Glenwood and escaped in an auto
mobile with $4,000, carrying off the
cashier, K. e. Hallman, using him as
a shield.
Covering the entire bank force with
their guns, the bandits grabbed all the
currency in sight, backed into their
car with Hallman and dashed away to
the west. With a quickly organized
posse in full pursuit. the bandits
forced Hallman to stand erect on the
rear seat. The posse dared not fire
while the bandits kept up a fusillade
with their revolvers. One shot re-
moved one finger of the chauffeur OF
the pursuing car. At an early hour to-
day nothing had been heard of Hall
man. The bandits appeared to be
headed for the hills across the Okla
hOna state line.
