Is officially reported that seventy Ger
man divisions, OF $4,000 men, have
taken part in the fighting and that
troops have been moved from every
part Of the western battle front to re-
inforce the armies which have been
forcing the British to fall back OBJ
servers at the front say that the Ger
man losses have been frlghtful and
that the enemy has lost from ten to
twenty per cent OF his men, by the
most conservation estimates.
Attention centers here now on the
French front rather than on the prog
ress made by the Germans against the
British lines. AS the battle proceeds
officers here are becoming more GER
tain that the defenders are carrying
out definite plan which the British
withdrawal is a nart, but which will
prove soon to be coupled with a pow
erful counter thrust The most pro-
bable place for the launching OF such
a movement, 1t was thought, was from
the fianking position the French held
tenaciously tonight along the Jeff
bank of the Disc.

The contribution made by the pro

NAL food products Is illustrated by the
following:
Reports compiled by the U. s De-
partment of Agriculture indicate an
increase in cattle of 1929, 900 head
and 12.441.000 hogs. These figures
were compiled to Jan. LIST last.
In this period there was a decrease
in sheep of $1,000 head. The indica-
tons are that this decrease will show
an increase, according to recent re
ports.
Since Jan. list unofficial information
indicates an increase In hogs Of not
less than per cent. and not more
than Is per cent. as compared with
one year ago, with an increase in the
average weight.
Following the request of the U. s.
Food Administration for an increase

the increase may yield not less than

ping program arranged by Mr.. Hoov-
er regarding animal food products
would have been impossible.
The dressed hog products during
the three months ending Sept. 80,
