Along the western side of the Ger man salient there is no official men ton of events of especial importance during last night. It is reported that French and Americans were attack ing the enemy this morning, centering their efforts on the work of clearing the Germans out of the wooded areas to the south and southwest of Fere en Tardenois. This was said to have been nearly accomplished.
 In spite of the general expectation that the Germans are fighting on the southern side of the salient to cover the retreat of their armies and the salvaging of the vast supplies piled up along the Marne in preparation for the great offensive which began on

July Is, there appears to be a disposi- ton on the part of some of the mili- tary experts to consider the possibil- ity of a new German attack some where on the battle line between Soissons and Rheims. The stubborn manner in which the enemy has been fighting, and his failure to attack on some other sector point, it is contend ed, to the belief that the Germans are committed to a renewed offensive along the Marne in the hope of still winning victory there.
 Along the British front, near Arras and Lens and along the Somme sec tor, the German artillery has been active. British raiding parties have bean active at various points along their lines.

Some Hints on Canning

The July Farm and Fireside says:
Keep the water at a jumping boil
and do not allow the fire to die down
for an instant while cans are in the
Gamer.
Keep the cover on the Gamer dur
ing every moment of the processing
time. Steam plays a large part in
cooking.
Greens or green vegetables are
most satisfactorily blanched in steam
instead of hot water. Use a steam
cooker or put the products in a CO.
lander and set them over a vessel of
boiling water, covered tightly.
ITO prevent bleaching or darkening
of products packed in glass jars, wrap
jars in paper.
Examine jars and cans OCCASION
ally during the summer to detect any
sign of fermentation, leaking or swell
ing.
THE flavor is injured by letting
peeled fruit stand too long before
cooking"

From the number of shocks in their

Their tobacco, especially, looks good.

FARM AND STOCK.

Binder Irvine for the harvest of
1919 will cost farmers about three
cents less per pound than they paid
this year, an estimated total saving
TO grain growers OF the United States
OF 100000. The u. 5. Food Ad-
ministration was enabled to make
this saving to the farmers by buying
100000 bales OF sisal from the Yucca
tan monopoly controlling sisal
Beard Bros, have a million pounds
oil tobacco yet to prize. They have
already priced and delivered over two
million pounds.
Egg producers and consumers are
now realizing the wisdom of the
Food Administrator in requiring all
eggs to be candled when bought from
the producer. They gather them up
oftener, getting more and better eggs
and realize more money. The con-
sumer saves too, in that every egg he
buys is good egg.
The government has ordered that
100000 additional sheep and more
than 100000 additional cattle shall
be permitted to Craze on the National
forests this year, which will bring the
total number of stock grazed under
permit to nearly 100000 sheep and
100000 head of cattle and $1,000
head of swine. Last year the addi-

This is proof conclusively that there
are no better lands in the State than
right here in Breckenridge county,
when they have the right treatment

in connection with the Red Cross

Green County had three thousand

For much too long time, we were content to lead
the young people of this republic to think correctly
incorrectly that they must go to Germany in order prop
erly to complete their educations in science, music phil

pursuits Possibly we were somewhat lacking in
spects but is move probable that the superiority of the
German educational institutions largely imaginary
