HOW BOYS CAN HELP
Can Play Big Part in UphoIding
American Ideals.
Secretary Houston Says They Can Aid
In Home Gardening and Con-
serving Food.

Washington.-How every American
boy, although separated by the Allan
tic ocean from the actual theater Of
the war against autocracy, can play
his part in upholding American ideals
Is pointed out by Secretary Of Agricul-
ture Houston in a message addressed
to the Boy Scouts Of America. The Sec
retary pledges to the boys the hearty
cooperation of the federal and state
agricultural agencies.
Secretary Houston's statement fol-
lows:
"rhe splendid army of Boy Scouts
of America can be Of very great help
to the nation In this time of world
need. The war can be won only If we
deliver the men, the ships, and the
food in sufficient number and quanti-
ties to make our war program effec-
tive. You as boy scouts can greatly
aid by growing home vegetable gar
dens, raising pigs and poultry, con-
Saving food by canning and drying for
home use and in many other ways
opoa to you.
"WilP you not help your country
<gain this year even In a bigger and q
better way than you did during the
summer of 1917? Your task will be to
beat your own record in food produc-
tion and conservation. May your motto
for 1913 be. Every scout to feed sol
der and one other
II desire to extend to you the hearty
good will and cooperation Of the Off
cials of the United States department
of agriculture. also that Of the coop
erative club leaders Of boys and girls

leges, who will be glad to assist you In

CANADIAN view
OF THE BATTLE
GEN. FOCH'S sTRATERGY is TO
WHITTLE ENEMY DOWN.

Ottawa, Can, April 1S.-Today' s
news is not SO good as one could
wish, but the following viewpoint is
suggested:
We are confronted by enormous
concentrations of men and guns
The purpose of the enemy has been
revealed as an operation attempting
to separate the British and French
armies by rushing on the former.
Gen. Foch, in closest agreement with
Field Marshal Haig, is aiming not
only at arresting the enemy, but at
q counter attack which shall defeat
the Germans. Therefore, within GER
tain limits, the sound policy is to al
low the Germans to spend their sur
plus power as lavishly as possible in
order to reach the stage of equality
or even inferiority.
ION the other hand Gen. Foch is
endeavoring to avoid the enemy OBJ
tanning a great strategic advantage,
simultaneously placing a definite
price on certain places as worth so
much and no more in defending.
Thus when the price of defending
Bailleul was paid, Bailleul was evac-
uated
1T must be remembered that Gen.
Ludendorf has laid down all his
cards, while Gen. Foch has not yet
shown his hand.
Gen. Foch's dispositions inspire a
degree of confidence which the sit
uation in Flanders seemingly does
not justify. We may rest assured
that our own supreme command is
watching both the enemy and the
map with intense vigilance.
while the enemy hopes to frus-
trate our plans by forcing changes by
weight of numbers, so far the in
comparable steadfastness of our SOL
diers has deprived the enemy of the
fruits of his schemes"

BLOW SHIFTED
BY The HUNS
INDICATION THAT THE TEUTONS
ARE OVERPLAYING
THE GAME.

New York, April 1S.-The Brit
ish are recovering the initiative in
the struggle for the hills south of
Ypres. The recapture of Meteren by
Marshal Haig indicates that Won
Hindenburg has shifted his attacks
to the east, where there are still
more death traps for him in the
hills. The slight retirement in this
area by the British suggests simply
81 tactical rearrangement which
should present new difficulties for
the Germans.
Hindenburg's continued efforts to
penetrate through the Ypres high
lands from any direction, also at
heavy cost in casualties, has now be-
come a measure of self defense to
protect highly dangerous German
salient to the east of Nieppe forest.
This salient is the weakest link in
the new German front. Hindenburg
Is compelled to risk holding fast to
it, because 1t represents the nearest
approach of the German line to the
important British railway junction
at Hazebrouck. The capture of Haze
Drouck Is Hindenburg's immediate
objective as the most necessary pre-
liminary step in his effort to reach
the channel ports.
In his latest efforts to reach Haze
brouck, however, Hindenburg has
come perilously near overplaying his
hand. The British position here is
Q continuation of the British salient
at Ypres, The two together form a
huge S turned upside down. The
Ypres salient runs eastward into the
German line in the upper half of the
IS, and the Nieppe forest salient ex-
tends westward into British in the
lower half of the S.
II the British hold fast to Ypres,
the German front cannot be straight
ened. Any time Gen. Foch concludes
the situation is critical, he can strike
the German Nieppe salient with his
reserves and doubtless bend 1t back
But, to do this now, while Hinden-
burg is so ferociously Staying his own
men, Is probably not Gen. Foch's
plan. Hindenburg must be given all
possible freedom first, for self de-
struction.

BRITISH ARMY
LEADERS Confident
HUNS PUSH ON TO SLAUGHTER
WITHOUT MATERIAL GAINS.

London, April 18.-Having driven
the British from Bailleul and Wyt-
schaete the Germans are battling
desperately to gain other points on
the high ground south and south
west of Ypres. After fighting with
huge forces for eight days the Ger
mans Tuesday got out of the low
lands. but to make their gains secure
hey must push on further. The
British from the high ground at the
way, are striking back doggedly.
In capturing Wytschaete and the
southwest, the Germans drove the
British fro mthe high ground at the
southern tip of the Messines-Pass-
chendaele ridge, which extends for
IA miles from Wulverghem to Pass
chandale in a northeasterly direc-
tion. From Wulverghem to Wyt-
schaete is two and one-half miles.
Ypres lies four miles directly north
of Wytschaete and between them are
the heights of Klein Zillebeke and
Observatory ridge, which are equal
in height to Wytschaete, 60 meters.
To wipe out the Ypres salient the
Germans must gain more of the long
ridge and must cut the railroad from
Hazebrouck to Ypres, which is one
of the main supply lines to the Brit
ish lines east and northeast Of Ypres.
Meteren lies west of Bailleul and
four miles east of the railroad, and
six miles northeast of Hazebrouck.
These facts may seem somewhat
grim in the reading, but they have
,heir brighter side. The Germans
have won new ground at a great cost
Of life and there is no dimunition in
the magnificent spirit which has
been holding against the enemy inva-
sion since April 4. There Is no flag
ging Of faith among the officers and
men along this front in their ulti-
mate victory.
No more gallant defense has been
recorded since the war began than
that now going on, and while further
sacrifices are expected and even fur
ther loss of ground, no doubt exists
on the British front that ultimately
The Allies will come into their own
when the German side has spent its
fury.
1t must not be forgotten that thus
far virtualyl the whole weight Of the
terrific German onslaught has been
directed at the annihilation OF the
British army. The first great blow
was aimed at the British, and was
continued until with the assistance
OF the gallant French allies, the Ger
man onrush was checked.
Baked in their plans at the out,
set the enemy shifted and struck
heavily in the region of Arras. Now
1t is the Armentieres sector; tomor-
row 1t may be somewhere else along
the British front. There now are or
the western front approximately zoe
German divisions. or this huge
number, about 120 have already
been engaged, mainly against the
British.

About 30 Per Cent of Animals Wound.

After Treatment in Red
Star Hospitals. ..

New York.-Necessity of sending
hundreds of thousands of horses to
France for the American artillery
units and of establishing hospitals for
the treatment of wounded animals is
emphasized by DIR. w. o. Stllman,
president Of the Red Star animal re-
lief, In bulletins upon the work of the
organization. He said that the Ger
nlans had lost many batteries of field
uieces because of lack of animals to
draw them to safety during allied ad-
sances, while fewer guns had been lost
by the British partly because they had
large numbers of horses.
100000 Horses in Use.
Figures compiled by the society
chow that there are 100000 in use
hy all the armies In the war; and that
iae losses on the western front alone
have averaged 1900 a month. In
three-mile front at Verdun the French
lost more than 5000 horses. About l..
100000 of the horses were bought by
the allies In America and were trans.
ported with large losses. About $4,000
died on this side after they had been
purchased and were awaiting ship
ment to Europe and 5000 died in the
ships. The value of the horses ship
ped to Europe last year was more than
$5OOOO,OO0 and the loss for a heavy
month of fighting is about $1,500,00O.
There are about 22,000,0OO horses in
America, and the estimates are that an
American army of 100000 men will
need about 10000 horses for draft
purposes and mounts, and several>hun
dred thousands more to fill up the
losses of battle. The need of shipping
to maintain this force at highest eff.
cheney, to transport animals to fill
the losses, with only part of the fod-
der, would be 80 ships a month.
Fighting units can deal only with
well animals. AS soon as a horse be-
comes sick, diseased, shell-shocked or
wounded Ii must be removed to the
rear and sound, vigorous animal
sent forward to take its place. Thou
sands of animals are In the hospitals
at one time. They must be cured as
quickly as possible to take the places
of the injured which are certain to
reach the hospital.
Animal hospitals.
Behind the British lines animal nos
pitfalls are everywhere. To the left, to
the right, there is hospital not more
than four miles away, and eight miles
away from each is another. The Roy
al Society for the Prevention of Cruel
ty to Animals has hospitals for 10000
horses aud mules. A field hospital is
no mere stable shack. 1t Is a group Of
well-designed buildings, complete with
operating rooms, operating equipment,
ambulances, forage barns, cooking
kitchens, quarters for the staff, and
every other detail necessary for cur
ing and restoring thousands of wound
ed animals. 1t must have an ample
staff of veterinarians and helpers-nOt
mere stablemen, but men with expert
ence In animal hospital work, who can
bandage wound or give hand to the
veterinarian who Is performing an op-
Grafton. They are saving 80 per cent
of the horses and sending them back
to their batteries again.
