us cursed so much then, though we
were pretty handy with language ut
any time. But when you are under
heavy fire like that and cannot give
it back as good as you get, you go
crazy unless you have something to do.
Cussing is the best thing we, could
think Of.
Up the trench the third bay was
simply smashed in and the Germans
were placing bomb after bomb right
In it and In ours. The captain yelled
out that he was going up to the next
bay to examine 1t, but no more had
he got there than he had his head
taken clean off his shoulders.
At daybreak our trenches were all
pounded in and most of our dugOuts
were filled up. Then Fritz opened up
with his artillery fire right on us. We
thought they were going to charge and
we figured their barrage would lift
and we could see them come over.
We received orders to stand to with
fixed bayonets. Then the man at the
periscope shouted, "They come"
A battery directly behind us went
into action first and then they all
Joined in and inside of five minutes
about eight hundred guns were raising
Cain with Fritz. The Boches were
caught square In No Mans Land and
our rifles and machine guns simply
moved them down. Many of them
came half way across, then dropped
their guns and ran for our trenches
to give themselves up. They could not
have got back to their own trenches.
It was shame to waste shell on
these poor fish. II they had been CIV
vies the law would prevent you from
hitting them-you know the kind.
They could hardly drag themselves
along.
That Is the way they look when you
have got them. But when they have
got you-kicks, cuffs, bayonet jabs-
there Is nothing they will not do to
add to your misery. They seem to
think that 1t boosts their own courage.
An artillery fire like ours was great

much fun for Fritz or for. us in the
trenches. We got under cover almost
as much as Fritz and held thumbs for
the gunners to get through in hurry.
Then the fire died down and 1t was
so quiet it made you jump.
We thought our parapet was busted
up good deal, but when we looked
through the periscope we saw what
had happened to Fritz trenches and,
believe me. they were practically
ruined.
Out In No Mans Land It looked like
Woolworth's five-and-ten; everywhere
were gray uniforms, with tincups and
accouterments that belonged to the
Germans before our artillery and ma
chine guns got to them.
Our stretcher bearers were busy,
carrying the wounded back to first-aid
dressing station, for, Of course, we had
suffered too. From there the blesses
were shipped to the clearing station.
The dead lay in the trenches all day
and at night they were carried out
by working parties to "Stiff park" as
] called It.
A man with anything on his mind
ought not to 60 to the front-line
trenches. He will be crazy inside Of
month. The best way IL not to
care whether 1t rains or SHOWS: there
are plenty Of important things to
worry about.

A warm barn not only adds TO
the comfort Of your. live stock but
it saves an immense amount Of feed.
Your horses and COWS use a great
proportion Of their feed for bodily
warmth and comfort before they
viii return service TO mankind. A
cold COW will give no milk. A cold
horse will give no service. Every
barn should be equipped with some
method of taking the chill off the
drinking water. II takes large
quantities Of feed to produce animal
heat.
1t must be remembered. however,
that in making a snug barn. ventila-
ton is all important. There is a
very clever pamphlet describing the
King system Of ventilation, which
has been issued by the National
Lumber Manufacturers association
which may be had on application at
any local lumberyard or by address
ing the association at Chicago.
1t gives working diagrams OF how
TO ventila.e an old barn or how 20
install a ventilating system in a
new barn.
II window ventilation is desired il
is a good practice TO hinge the win
dow at the bottom, putting a fan
shaped metal piece on each side so
that the window may be tilted in
wards This will keep the cold
draught off the animals and allow
the foul air TO escape.
Another excellent plan is to get a
few pieces of matched flooring at
the lumber yard and build a shaft

Third vegetable proteins alone
cannot be fed economically.
Fourth. % percent meat scrap is

IN MEMORIAM.

Died at Belleview Orchard west o.
Charles Town, October 28th, 1918, OF
pneumonia, Elizabeth C. Custer, only
daughter of Forrest L. and Fannie
R. Custer, aged six years.
The angel of death has been in oul
lidst and has removed one of the
:ovliest of his flock. This little one
was the idol Of it's mother and father
If the strong ties of family affection
the anxious desire of friends and the
skill of physician could have availed
our much-loved darling would not
have died. Truly God in his provi-
dence is mysterious, but let us not
mourn, for there is hope in her de-
parture, "For of such is the kingdom
of heaven" In meekness and sweet
L ness of disposition she was remark
able, but few babes could equal her.
During her long suferings they were
tireless in their attention to her. But
the. good Shepherd saw fit to call her
from fond parents, which was their
loss but His gain. We know she has
gone to rest; we no longer behold her
but the wide arm of Omnipotence is
opened to receive her into the haven
of eternal rest.
Fold her hands across her bosom,
Smooth the hair off her brow, Weep
no more for little Elizabeth, she
is only sleping now.
Only sleeping to awaken in the para
disc of love
Then why mourn her, for We'll meet
her. Round the throne of God
above.
One sweet flower was little Elizabeth,
ever full of life and mirth.
But too rare and fair treasure to
remain with US on earth.
So at morn came lovely angels
Whispering softly Elizabeth come
Thou art wanted by the Savior
To praise Him in His heavenly home
Yes, her work on earth is finished, she
has crossed the silvery stream.
She is reckoning us to meet her mid
the golden city's CLEAN.
By her loving grandfather,
l.. r. CUSTER.
