100000 UNDER ARMS
AND 1.45O,OOO OVERSEAS
Great job of Getting 80 Divisions
to France by June Certain
OF Success.

Washington, Aug. 22.-Of more
than 100000 men now under
arms. the American army has sent
nearly one-half or more than 1,450,-
600 overseas for service against the
enemy in France. Italy and Siberia
These figures were revealed by
General March, chief of staff. in his
Saturday talks with newspaper men
and members Of the senate military
committee. The senator's were told
that some transports are making
the trip to Europe and back in 10
days, and the average has been re-
duced to % days. which with addi-
tional shipping becoming available
makes the great job OF getting 80
divisions of American troops to
France by June 80, 1919, certain of
success.
The chief Of staff paid only brief
attention to the progress OF the
lighting in France where the stua-
tion is developing slowly. He did
characterize the battle, however. as
the German retreat" and otherwise
indicated that further retirement
was expected.
Explaining his announcement as
to embarkation, General March said:
when | give figures hereafter of
troops embarking from the United
states the totals will embrace the
troops in Siberia. in Italy, France
and Russia proper. The figures will
mean the entire American eXpedi-
tionary force in all parts Of the
world. We have now embarked on
all the expeditions more than 1.45O,-
900 men"
Discussing the work of Amerci-
cans abroad, he said:

CHINAs&NDs SOLDIERS
TO BORDER OF SIBERIA
Will Repel Invasion by Armed Ger
man and Hungarian PriSOn-
erS of War.

Washington, Aug. 22.-The Chi
nese government has sent large
force of troops to the Siberian bor-
der to prevent a Threatened invas-
ion of Chinese territory by German
and Hungarian prisoners of war who
Joined with the red guard and other
elements of the Bolsheviki against
the CzechoSlovaks in the trans
Baikal region.
The sending of the Chinese forces
was taken to mean that every means
OF extending relief to the Czecho-
Slovaks was being taken by the al
lied powers. The active participa-
ton of the Chinese army on the ST.
berian border may have an import
ant bearing on developments there
within a few days, according to Off
cials here. That the large number
of prisoners who were set free by
the Bolsheviki, armed and equipped,
and enlisted to fight against the
Czecho-Slovaks are meonacing the
Chinese border has been known here
for several days and II permitted to
cross the border, they would be able
to maneuysr to far better advant-
age. This, however, China has de-
clared she will not permit and if
Chinese territory is violated a bat
tie is promised with all the advant-
ages resting with the Chinese.
1t was said at the state depart
ment tAfS allied troops in Vlad-
Rsss nna under 9r,'s orders to re
appeal for assistance recently made
by General Diedrichs, the Czecho-
Slovak leader. The allied forces, Il
was said, are empowered to take any
action or move to any place where
Nthey can render the best service to
the Czecho-Slovak army. The
American troops are to be governed
by military necessities and are not
bound by orders to any particular
field of action. 1t is safe to assume
that the troops of the British.
French and other allied nations at
Vladivostok have similar instruc-
tions.
That the Japanese troops from
Manchuria will be the first to rem
der General Diedrichs and his small
band of fighters practical aid seems
probable from late news from that
portion of the world. But they will
be promptly reinforced by troops of
NTe entente nations provided it is
found that the line OF communication
20 Vladivostok can be maintained by
: the Manchurian railroad or other
wise.

my spare time to chop wood for the

Of hot tea. I rinsed out my dixie and
returned 1t to the cookhouse, and went
back to the billet with an exhilarated
feeling that my days labor was done.
I had fallen asleep on the straw when
once again the cook appeared In the
door of the billet with: "Blime me, you
Yanks are lazy. Who in - a-goin' to
draw the water for the mornin' tea?
Do you think I'm a-goin' to? Well.

ROOTS.
Feed Only the Good Cows.

(B. w. Bird, Boston Chamber OF Commerce.)
In my last article I dwelt upon the
importance of the farmers finding out
how efficient their machinery was, and
only second to that is the importance OF
the fuel which they use In running the
machine. In large factories IL 10 often
times one chemists job to test the coal,
oil or other fuel that is ueed In the
furnaces 80 that the greatest amount OF
steam can be produced for the small
est expense. Everyone knows that q
boiler cannot be made to produce a
maximum of steam on low grade or poor
coal.
This is equally true of the dairy
COW. Many farmers feel that any kind
of roughage is good enough for the COW,
and If they save money on the feed they
will get lower cost on their milk. II this
is true of the farmer, why isn't 1t true OF
the manufacturer on his coalp he can
buy poor coal at very much lower
price than he can q high grade, standard
quality, yet in almost every case the
manufacturer prefers to pay the higher
price and he gets greater yield for bis
money.
If, therefore, the farmer would weigh
his milk, ascertain the poor producing
COWS, sell them for beef, and feed the
remaining cows proper ration to pro.
duce the greatest amount Of milk, he
would have just ss much milk In all
probability as he had before, and less
cows to feed.
Take for example the farmer who has
12 COWS. he has the expense Of housing
these COWS, the interest on them, their
care, and the cost of his time In milking
them. Suppose he gets 10 cans of milk
day from these cows. II by weighing
the milk, and eliminating the two or
three poor COWS and feeding the others
a proper ration, including grain (even at
the present price of grain), he can with
nine COWS produce 10 cans of milk day,
he has saved in labor, interest, overhead,
and bis actual cost of the milk Is not as
much as II was before.
Every large producer Is following these
methods. If 1t Is good for the large pro-
ducer, It is equally good business for
the small one. Consult your local farm
bureau as to the best and most economi.
cal methods of feeding. Start q COW.
testing association in your neighbor-
hood.
