HINTS ON BACKYARD FLOCK
Each PuIIet Should Produce Ten Dozen Eggs in Year-At Least Ten
 Hens in Flock.

Here are some safe figures about what can be expected of a backyard flock. Each hen in her bullet year should produce ten dozen eggs. The average size of the backyard flock should be at least ten hens Thus each flock would produce in Il year 100 dozens of eggs which. at the conserva- tive value of p cents d dozen. would be worth S25. But the 100 dozen Is mora important than the $25.

CHAPTER VII.

To complete our misery, we received
orders during the night to attack the
French at 4:15 in the morning. We
made our preparations under a pour
ing rain. Promptly at 4 rs we went
over the top, jumping over corpses and
wounded men. We were forced to re.
tire before hail Of machine gun fire
and sustaining large number Of un.
necessary casualties.
Hardly had we regained our trenches
when the French attacked us. They
came within three meters of our trench,
and here their attack broke down un-
der our fire. They too had to retire
with fearful losses.
Three times in two hours the French
attacked, always with heavy losses
and no results. We were at our wits
end. Unless help came soon it would
be impossible for us to hold the posi-
ton. We were tortured by hunger and
thirst as we'll as being wet to the skin
and were so exhausted that we could
hardly stand.

because we have used up all our
ammunition" was the answer of one of
the battery men.
els it impossible to bring ammuni-
ton through this barrage?"
"NO," replied the artilleryman, "but
there is no more ammunition. That is
why we cannot get any. At Neufcha-
teau we started like wild men after the
enemy. Man and beast died from the
heat, railroads and other mediums of
transportation were left in their dam
aged condition in the Wild excitement
of victory, as we dashed into the heart
of France. We raced on, blindly and
thOughtlessly, thereby interrupting
communication with our bases, ran
directly into the trap set for us by the
French. Before the first ammunition
and other relief supplies reach us we
will all be killed."
Up to this time we had trusted
blindly in the invincible strategy of our
great general staff. Vow it was brought
home to us on all sides that the
French were fighting at home, close
to their greatest source of supply, and
had excellent railroad connections at
their disposal. Further than that the
French maintained a terrible artillery
fire from guns of far greater caliber
than we believed they owned. This led
us to the conclusion that they were Oc-
cupying positions which had been pre-
pared for long time. Yet we believed
that the picture painted by the artil-
soon to know better.
AS we approached the enemy's
trenches, we were met with a heavy
machine gun fire, and in double-quick
step hurried to the temporary prOtec-

ploring. Their cries are augmented
by other wounded closer by. All called
for bandages, but we had none left. We
tore strips from our muddy shirts and
with them covered the gaping wounds.
Men are dying constantly. There are
no doctors, no bandages, nothing. The
wounded must be assisted, but first the
FrenchOmust be repulsed.
The rain falls harder constantly and
we are all wet to the skin. We shoot
blindly into the night. The fuctuating
fire of musketry becomes strong, then
weaker, then strong again.
+ We pioneers are scattered among the
infantry. My neighbor touches me.
"Say," he calls.
"What do you want?" I ask. "Who
are you?"
"Come here" he Kissed.
It is eerie, alone in this DEVILS night.
"Why are you here? Will you MUIR
der me like those over there. Soon
they will return from over there and
the fun will be on again. Do you hear
the others weep?"
And he laughed.
Suddenly he started again: 81 al
ways shoot at them until they stop
weeping. That is fun"
And again he laughed, maniacally,
and louder than before.
I realized finally that this man had
lost his reason. A man passed bring
ing ammunition and I asked him to
fetch the commander at once. The Of
ficer arrived, accompanied by an infan-
try lieutenant. I met them and report
ed that my neighbor had been firing on
the wounded, talking nonsense, and
undoubtedly was insane. The lieuten-
ant stepped between US.
Can you see anything?" he asked.
"See! No. But hear them moan
ing and weeping. AS soon as hit one
he is quiet for he sleeps!'
The lieutenant nodded to me. He
tried to take the gun from the man,
but the latter seized it quickly and
sprang back to cover. From there he
fired while standing among the wound
ed, until a moment later, he himself
fell, riddled.b many bullets.
The drama had only few specta-
tors. It was hardly over before it was
forgotten. Anything but sentiment.
The blind firing continued. The
cries of the wounded became constant
~ louder.
Why? These wounded lying be-
tween the two fighting lines are eK-
posed to the firing of both parties. No
one can help them for it would be in
sanity to venture into No Mans Land.
Ever louder and with more heart
rending pleadings, the wounded called
for the stretchers, for help, for water.
At the most a curse Or an oath is the
only response.
Our trench was filled with several
inches of water and underneath that,
mud. In this morass lay dead and
wounded, thrown together. 1t became
necessary to make room and so the
dead were thrown over the ramparts.
At one o'clock in the night men came
with stretchers and took away some OF
the wounded, but for those wretches
lying in No Mans Land there was no
help.

ton of hastily thrown up dugOuts. A
hard rain had set in. The field around
us was covered with dead and wound
ed. Even our trench was filled with
wounded, which made it's occupation
by the defenders difficult. Many Of
the wounded men were paralyzed from
lying on the Shiny ground. All were
without bandages. They begged for
bread and water, but we had none for
ourselves. They pleaded piteously, just
for scrap of bread. Many of them
had lain in this inferno for two days,
without having eaten anything what
ever.
We were scarcely established when
the French attacked en- maSse. The Oc-
cupants Of these trenches, whom we
had REINFORCED had already repulsed
several of these attacks. They urged
us to shoot and fired wildly themselves
into the ranks of the advancing masses.
We responded to the exhOrtatiOns of
the infantry officers: Fire, fire hard
er, harder"
We fired until the barrels of our
guns became red-hot. The enemy
turned. The victims of our fire al
ready lying in heaps in No Mans Land
between our lines and the enemy's
were increased by hundreds. The at
tack was repulsed.
It is dark, and it rains and rains. All
about us in the darkness are heard
the wounded weeping, moaning, i'm
