CONSIDERS AMERICAN
TROOPS EXCELLENT
Australian Correspondent Says Yanks
Are Finest One Could Wish

Australian Correspondent Says Yanks
Are Finest One Could Wish
to Meet.
London, July 25.-An official an
nouncement gives the views of an
Australian correspondent with the
Australian forces in France, who
says:
'The German newspapers have been
concentrating on decrying General
Foch and deprecating the American
forces.
"The newspaper barrage of depre-
cation of the quality of the American
is intended for people in Germany,
since in France we see and know. If
the German comforts himself with the
idea they are not equal in value to
any of his troops, so much the better,
because his surprise will be very
great. Australian officers and men,
who know this war in every form, say
the American troops are the finest
one could possibly wish to meet"

REPLACE BEARING ON Wheel
Best Way to Accomplish Task Is to
Slip Short Length Of Pipe Over
the Spindle.


In replacing bearing on a front

fit, the car owner sometimes slips the
bearing on the taper end Of the spindle
and then uses the wheel as hammer

sliding into position Of the spindle at
the same time. This is poor business,
as the strain on the bearing may break
the hardened shoulder Of the inner
race. which H. meant to withstand
wear, but not shocks Of this kind. The
best way OF accompl ishing this work
is to slip short length Of pipe over
the spindle, the inner end resting
against the inner race 0f the bearing.
By hammering tn outer end of the
pipe carefully, the bearing viii alp
into place without trouble. .s

Attention Necessary.

Many present-day cars ara fitted with

some means Of fabrication, but many
car owners never take the trouble SIM

While 1t is not necessary to turn the
cup each day, 1t is advisable to give
this part little attention now and
then. In cantilever suspensions the
center bearing of the spring should be

VERY HARD FIGHTING
SOUTH OF SCISSORS
Germans Are Concentrating to Pre-
vent Further Importing of
Their Lines.

With the American Army on the
Aisne-Marne Front, July 25.-Extreme-
ly hard fighting has been going on
along the line south of scissors, where
the Germans are concentrating in full
strength to- prevent the further i'm
periling of their lines, over which sup
plies must reach them. But, notwith-
standing the strong German resist
ance, the Allies have made gains here
also.
The main railroad is now useless so
far as the Germans are concerned,
while the heavy guns of the Allies are
reaching many of the wagon roads
which the enemy has fought so hard
to retain.
. The Germans can; of course, obtain
limited supplies, but It is believed
these will not be sufficient to warrant
keeping: the big army in the salient,
which has been greatly narrowed by
q weeks battle.

Secretary Baker states: F'This new
policy aims to accomplish a two.fold
object; first, to develop as a great mill
tary asset the large body of young men
in the colleges; and second, to prevent
unnecessary and wasteful depletion Of
the colleges through indiscriminate vol
unteering by Offering to the students a

us.'
This is of vital interest to young
men under 81 who have finished part Of
college course and who therefore
ought to make renewed effort to return
to college or the university next falE
It is also an invitation to high school
graduates who have planned to enter
college to do so this coming fall.
The presidents Of the several colleges
in Minnesota and President Burton Of
the State University are unanimous in
urging all high school graduates to give
this question serious thought, and to
have college and university students
complete their college course.
Young men are likewise urged to pre-

London, July ga strike of NUM-

The aggregate membership of the
II societies affiliated with the joint
committee of the Engineering Trades
unions is about $4,000, including about
5000 women: Officials of the joint
committee say they have no reason to
doubt all the workers will be loyal to
the resolution to stop work.
r. A number of discharged soldiers
who are union members inquired of
the officials of the federation of dis
charged sailors and soldiers regarding
their position. They were advised not
to cease work under any circumstances
owing to the serious consequences to
the men in the trenches. J,
Lincoln Workers Loyal.
At Lincoln, where the strike was to
become effective unless the embargo
was withdrawn, the workers agreed
to remain at their posts pending de-
cision of the national conference to-
morrow.
The Woolwich arsenal workers held
a meeting, after which they telegraph
ed the Coventry Munitions workers as
follows:
Strike now and you will earn the
blessings of the kaiser and his army
of murderers. But you will earn the
lasting condemnation of all those who
are fighting and working in the Allied
ization.
Strike, and you may go to hell,
Woolwich will remain at work and
earn the right to shake the hand Of

CARE OF ANTIsK'D DEVICES
Great Harm Will Result From Their
CoEt:7''2I Use-Lear:;1I Thc:o
On Is Expensive.

Antlskid devices are helpful under
certain conditions, but great harm will
result from their continued use. Be-
cause some devices are noisy there is a
temptation to fasten them tightly to
the tires. When this is done the extra
pressure and the flattening out Of the
tires causes the cross grips to cut and
gouge into the tire. When cross
grips become worn, sharp and rough,
they should be replaced. Otherwise
the, tread will be cut and moisture and
dirt will do the rest. ~
Take off the antiskid devices as
soon as' the necessity for using them
mas passed. Leaving them on when
they are not needed is highly expen-

Farmers who were negligent in dis
posing>of their wheat as per orders of
the food administration, are suffering
from violation Of the order. Farmers
of Brown county to the number of 100
held approximately $500 bushels of
wheat, which was turned in this week
under director of Vidian B. wye,
special agent Of the administration,
who is spending his time looking up
wheat and flour hoarders in the state.
In lieu Of punishment the offenders
made contributions of 81 500 to the Red
Cross and purchased $4,000 worth of
War savings stamps. "In making an
investigation of a report given to the
office that an individual in Brown coun-
ty near Sleepy Eye, had quantity Of
wheat stored, it was found that the
farmers of the whole section were gen.
orally in possession of. wheat that
should have been marketed in May"
says Mr.. WYE. 'Those who were thus
openly opposing the government repent
ed when the first two OF three men were
ordered to bring the wheat in, and it
became evident the food administration
meant what it said. Penitent individ-
uals voluntarily brought their wheat
from all sections, and asked what they
should do to show that their misdeeds
were regretted" The Investigation
will continue until the entire county
has been cleaned up,''' he said, s"and
will be transferred to- other sections af-
ter that.'' q

Curing Hay in the Cock Under Caps
When Weather Conditions Make It
Necessary to Cure Hay In the Cock
It Is Advisable to Use Hay Caps.
cooked hay shows danger of becoming
too hot it will, be necessary to open
the cock and scatter the hay out until
it has lost enough moisture to be re-
cooked.
Hay can be put in small cocks: green
er than in large ones. Some farmers
take hay from the windrow and make
very small punches, each containing
about three forkfuls of hay, before the
hay is in condition to be put into a
regular sized cock.>
How to Cock Hay.
There are two ways to make a hay
cock. One is to roll up the hay in the
windrow into rather loose cock or
bunch, or to round up (cock) punches
Of hay that have been punched with
sulky or push rake, after the hay is al
most cured. The bulk of the hay in
this kind Of cock is not handled, be-
ing left rolled up and tangled from
the action of the rake. The edges are
pulled out with pitchfork and put
on top of the cock. Such cocks are
subject to considerable settling, and
fatten out and do not shed rain. This
practice is suitable for curing in good
weather, as man can handle more
than twice as much ebay as when
cooking the other way. It is a waste
Of time, however, to cock hay in this
manner If It is to be exposed to rain,
unless hay caps are used; for the rain
Will wet and spoil the hay.
The best and correct way to build
cock, when working with fairly
green hay, is to. take the hay, a fork
full at time, and spread it out fiat.
Care should be taken to build a good,
symmetrical cock, in the same manner
as stack is built. The top should
come to a sharp peak, and, when the
last forkful is on the sides, should be
raked downwards SO that the stems
VIII cause rain to run of and away
from the center of the cock. Cocks
built In this manner will shed consid-
,erably more rain than when most of
the hay is rolled up or punched. Well.
cooked hay covered. with caps can, IL
necessary. remain IN the 1e3d over .
