French Hold Positions

Between the Disc and the Marne
the fighting continues heavier than
elsewhere on the new salient. North
OF n-sous-Touvent, northwest
of Soissons, the French have improv-
Led their positions, gaining some
"hotly contested terrain from the
Germans. Enemy attacks against the
Retz forest, although strong, are be-
ing localized. Near Longpont the
Germans were able to penetrate the
forest but French counterattacks
threw them out.
If they follow the tactics employ
ed in the Picardy and Flanders bat
ties the Germans probably will make
very strong efforts to improve locally
important positions before they final
~ give up. their efforts to advance.
The enemy artillery fire is very heavy
from north of the Aisne to the Ourcu
on the west wing, and around
Rheims, on the east, which still holds
out.
Americans Hold Their Own

Bows and Girls Fall Gardens.

The war garden should not be neg
lected during the later part of the sea-
son. Keep every foot of ground pro-
ducing vegetables until frosts end the
growing season.
In the northern states there Is still
time TO plant turnips, spinach. kale
radishes, lettuce. and beets, while in
the middle South there is still time to
plant all these crops as well as string
beans and peas. In the lower South
now is the time to plan for good fall
garden. In many sections Of the South
spinach. kale, lettuce, beets and simi-
lar crops may be planted at any time
during the fall for use during the win
ter, as the climate Is such that they
will continue to grow throughout the
winter. Potato-onion sets may be put
out in the fall In almost all sections OF
the country.

NOTHING BUT PROXY SALUTE

Kiss That Came With War Cross

An officer, writing from a hospital
In France, tells how French officer

and how, without any warning. one OF
the nurses hurried to his bedside ana

strangely beautiful. Always their
hands were cool and their uniforms

been picked ur and carried to the hos

life-grim death stalking just behind
the door. His identity was not known.
but he was Il man, wide of-Shoulder
and small of girth. He had Il fiat

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There Is
only one way to cure Catarrhal Deafness,
and tnat Is by a constitutional remedy.
HALLS CATARRH MEDICINE acts
through the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
of the System. Catarrhal Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the
mucous lining OF the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube Is infiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when II is entirely closed. Deafness is the
result. Unless the Inflammation can be re-
duced and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition, hearing may be destroyed
forever. Many cases OF Deafness are
caused by Catarrh which Is an infiamed
condition OF the Mucous Surfaces

TO PROPAGATE BY GRATING
stocks-Cover Cut Surfaces With
Layer of Wax.

(t-repared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
All the common pomaceous fruits
(apples, pears and quinces), the stone
fruits (peaches, plums, cherries and ap-
ricots), and the citrus fruits demons,
lines and oranges) are now multi
piled by grating or budding. The
progress in plant breeding and the
great rapidity with which new sorts
are now disseminated could not be OBJ
tained without the aid of budding or
grating. Under existing conditions
it is not necessary for the originator
of new sort of apple to give any
thought TO the question of fixing that
type so it may be reproduced from
seed; the method of reproducing the
sort does not enter as factor into his
efforts to secure the desired variation.
Grating or budding has settled that
long ago; but were it otherwise, horti-
culturists would be studying different
problems, and the nurseryman would
be more of scientist than a manu-
facturer.
A scion is portion cut from a
plant to be inserted upon another Cor
the same) plant, with the intention
that 1t shall grow. Except for her
baceous grating the wood for sciOns
should be taken while in a dormant
or resting condition. The time usu-
ally considered best is after the leaves
have fallen, but before severe freez.
ing begins. The sciOns are tied in
punches and buried in moist sand,
where they will not freeze and yet
be kept cold enough to prevent growth.
Good results often follow cutting
scions in the spring just before or at
the time the grating is to be done.
If cleft grating is the style to be en-
ployed, this practice frequently gives
good results, but spring cutting of
scions for whip grating is not desir-
able, as not enough time Is given for
proper healing Of the wound before
planting time in the spring.
The stock is the plant or part Of
plant upon which or into which the
bud or scion is inserted. For best re-
suits in grating 1t is essential that
the stock be in an active condition,
or so that active growth can be quick
ly brought about.
This style Of graft Is particularly
adapted to large trees when for any
reason it becomes necessary to change
the variety. Branches too large to be
worked by other methods can be cleft
grated.
A branch one or one and one-half
inches In diameter is severed with a
saw. Care should be taken that the
bark be not loosened from any portion
of the stub. Split the exposed end
with broad thin chisel or grating
tool. Then with wedge or the wedge
shaped prong at the end of the graft
ing tool spread the cleft SO that the
scions may be inserted.
The scion should consist of a por.
tioL Of the previous seasons growth
and should be long enough to have two
or three buds. The lower end Of the
scion, which is to be inserted into the
cleft, should be cut into the shape of
a wedge, having the outer edge thick

Cleft Grafting-a, the Scion; b, Scions
Inserted In Cleft.

er than the other. In general, IL Is
q good plan to cut the scion so that
the lowest bud will come just at the
top of this wedge, so that 1t will be
near the top of the stock. BY cut
ting the wedge thicker at one side the
pressure of the stock is brought upoo
the outer growing part of both scioa
and stock, whereas were the scion
thicker on the inner side the condi.
tions would be reversed and the death
of the scion would follow. The i'm
portance Of having an intimate con-
nection between the growing tissues
Of both scion and stock cannot be-
too strongly emphasized, for upon this
alone the success of grating depends.
To make this contact of the growing
portions doubly certain, the scion Is
often set at slight angle with the
stock into which II is inserted in or
der to cause the growing portions Of
the two to cross.
After the scions have been set the
operation of cleft grating is COM
pleted by covering all cut surfaces
with layer of grating wax.

ANOTHER way TO
SAVE our WHEAT
Rolled Oats May Be Ground at
Home With Food Chopper
or Hand Mill.
Used As BREAKFAST CEREAL
For Making Bread and Cakes II Is
Best to Combine With Fine FIours
Recipes Given Have Been
Thoroughly Tested.

Rolled oats have long been used as
q breakfast cereal In American homes,
but the use OF the ground rolled oats
I'm place Of wheat flour in bread and
cake making is new to some people.
Oats flour is procurable in some mar
kets but in most cases it does not
differ materially from that made In
the home by grinding the rolled oats
In hand mill or through fooG
chopper.
Since oats -four is more granular
than wheat flour, better texture can
be obtained by using 1t in combina-
tion with one of the finer flours, such
as rice flour. potato flour, or, corn
-four. The quick breads and yeast
breads as well as the cakes and
cookies made from the ground rolled
oats have an excellent flavor.
Either the home-ground rolled oats
or the commercial flour may be use'f
IN the recipes that follow. If you have
favorite recipes Of your own, use
them, substituting one and One-eighth
cupfuls of the ground rolled oats for
one cupful of wheat flour. The

OATMEAL OUTPUT GROWS

Practically the entire output
of oatmeal and rolled oats in the
United States Is produced by II
mills During the last seven
years there was a moderate
and regular increase In the size
of the business until 1917, when
the output Of these mills In
creased Ga per cent over the
previous year. The total output
in 1917 was more than double
that of 1914 and almost three
times as large as the 1911 pro-
duction. Even with the large
increase in 1917, however, the
amount OF oats used for human
food is still only about 3 per
cent Of the entire oat crop.
