Russian people on the battlefield, had
recourse to intrigue. 1t would be er-
roneous to consider that bolsheyism had
its inception among sane elements of
the Russian democracy. The bolshevism
becomes more and more odious to the
democracy and is approaching its down
fall. The tragedy Of the situation CON
sists in the fact that bolshevism is ced.
ing its place to triumphing Germanism,
which is grasping new regions in Rus

army being completely destroyed by
the bolshevik propaganda it is an abb

ing to crush Russia in its military, po-
litical and economic life. This is where
lies the greatest danger, not only for
Russia, but for all Of the allies.

MOVE FASTENED
BY FAILURE OF
AUSTRIAN DRIVE
Where Main Blow VIII Fall
Cannot Yet Be Determined
by Allies
ARDENNES REGION IS
BELIEVED TO BE CHOSEN
Hindenburg Evidently Moving
Slowly In Order to Avoid
Costly Mistakes

Washington. June 29.-The expected
offensive on the west front / nearly
ready to burst forth again, according
to information reaching the war de-
partment today.
Apparently it is being fastened by
the Austrian failure in italy and like
wise by Won Kuehlmann's recent re-
MARKS casting doubt on the military
leaders.
London, June 2s Heavy gun firing
was heard along the English coast
throughout lsst night The eannonading
which presumably came from the west
front, was also audible in London.
London, June 28-The Germans soon
will launch their final, supreme effort
1t was learned from an authoritative
source today.
1t is certain that a partial offensive
Will be started against the northern
portion of the British front Where
try main blow will follow is not known
but it probably will be between Rheims
ard the ArdenneS region with snbsi-
diary attacks simultaneously along the
whole front,
If the new drive should fall in this
area, it would be straight southward on
a front of more than rs miles, embrac-
ing both Rheims and Verdun. The Brit
1sh in tn, Rheims region, the Ameri-
cans in the Verdun and TouI sectors
and the French between, would bear
the brunt of the bow.
Austrias offensive power has been
broken and sh9 will be unable to re-
new her Italian drive for a consider
able time, Jules aid is furnished by
Germany. There are no indications
that such aid is likely.
An italian counter offensive in the
mountain area, on "a major scale Is
due, it was declared.
In addition to the large forces of
Americans between We1slun and st.
Mihiel and eastward of st. Mihiel
which would be involved in case the
American left wing were included in
such drive, 1t is probable that small
force of our men would be in the exact
center of the fighting. =.
Several weeks ago, American artil-
lery was reported in action at Butte
Du Mesnil, northwest of St Menehould
1t is possible that this force has been
withdrawn, as WIRE the American units
along the Chennin- des- s-Dames, but no
report to this effect has been received

THIS YEARS RECORDS PROVE
PIGS PAY IN COBB COUNTY

Now does not all this sound good
for the future of Cobb County? And
this is just few of the many sue
cessful pig club boys and girls in
the county. We could not possibly
print them all.
We truly believe pork raising will
soon be one of the chief money crops
in Georgia. Cobb County is taking
the lead in this section. South Geor-
gia is more generally raising fine hogs
than North Georgia, but not ahead of
Cobb. We are anxious to do all we
can to encourage. our young people
in the raising of pigs. We think
it will not only be good for their
bank accounts, but will also increase
the interest of young people gener-
ally in farm work. 1t will make bet
ter farmers of them.
In this connection we are remind
ed that The First National Bank last
wear advertised to lend pig money to
the club members, and they are doing
the same thing again this year. Any
bow or girl who can care for pig
can go to the bank and get the money
to buy pig of good stock.
Mr.. Massey says he as not yet
heard the experience of all those who
made the venture this year, but does
not think any will be failures, and he
wishes to help every boy and girl who
will take up this work. We commend
this progressive spirit and we feel
sure that many more young people
will take advantage of the offer this
year.
We ask parents to give the children
a chance. Let them get pig and en-
courage them.
DR.. Sawyer, the County Agent, has
been a large factor in the success of
our pig clubs this year. He has been
tireless in the work, and we can not
say too much in praise of his faithful
service.
Iowa produces nine million hogs,
and is one of the richest states. Geor-
gia produces three million hogs, and
is a better state to raise hogs in than
Iowa. The answer is plain, let's be
a hog state.

THE EFFECT OF WAR DIET
ON THE HUMAN WEIGHT

A statistical report published in the
German press and dealing with the
effect of war food on the human
constitution shows briefly that far
mers and their families lost no weight
during the war, but that persons
living in large cities were affected
to serious degree.
According to Bavarian doctors the
average person in cities lost about
one-siXth his prewar weight, but in
small towns the loss has been only
about one-twentieth.
"Self providers" as the farmers
are called, lost no weight during the
war. and this observation applies to
both men and women. Among city
consumers, however, me Most about
one-tenth their prewar weight and
women about one-fourteenth.
Information of this kind reflects,
in a measure at least, the close food
margins on which city jewellers mi
Central Europe have been living.
According to the United States Food
Administration, the situation proba-
bly, has been more critical among the
surrounding nations which Germany
has drained of food, and it is these
newly liberated countries that must
have food from America promptly
and in plenty.
