SHOWS PRETTY CATCH
 OF BLACK BASS. JeWett City Expert Brings in Four Fish-Total Weight 13 3-4 Pounds.

George s. Brown of Jevett City, formerly of Norwich, and well known n eastern Connecticut as an expert ait caster, as well as writer of many instructive articles on the ,portsmanlike method of taking fish 1n artificial bait, apparently has but title difficulty in securing the willy black bass
 When his neighbors see his red run about starting off towards one of the many lakes that surround Jewett City they cancel all orders placed at the markets and rarely get disappointed. In truth, the appetizing odor of baked black bass is getting quite common.
 Wednesday was surely no day to go out for bass. at least that it what the Old-timers said, but just to show what knowledge of bass habits and proper handling of artificial bait would do, dr Brown spent one hour and 8 half just ninety minutes-in casting a lure. The net results were sufficient to stop all traffic on the main street of Jewett City when he returned. It was a good catch and to see the real fish was far better than to hear lot Of much better fish stories. He had gust four fish, caught out of five strikes. The weights were 3-3 lbs, 2 S-4 lbs, 3 1-4 lbs. and lbs Total 79eight, 13 3-4 lbs.

sToRRS HENS KEEP
 UP EGG PRODUCTION
Hot Weather Seems to Offer No Han
 dicap in 10th Week.

In spite of the hot weather the birds in the contest at Storrs, during the fortieth week, managed to lay S265 eggs, or a yield of 466 per cent. This is only 70 eggs less than last week. The Oregons again came in the lead with a yield of 54 eggs. A pen of White Leghorns entered by Exmoor Farms, Lebanon, Pa, were second with 51 eggs to their credit Pen "A. White Wyandottes owned by Mrs. R. W. Stevens, Saltwater, N. Y, was a close third with 50 eggs. Pen l. Barred Rocks, entered by Merritt M Clark, pen 21. White Wyandottes en- tered by Rrayuan Farms, Westville, N. H.. and pen 49. Rhode Island Reds from the W. Mansfield Poultry Farms Attleboro, Mass, were tied for fourth place with 49 eggs, while pen 30, of White Wyandottes, owned by Cook and Porter. East Hampton, Mass, were fifth with AS eggs to their credit. As can be seen the heevy breeds did their share with five out of the seven best pens to their credit.
 For the past few months there has been more or less unrest among poul- trymen both as individuals and as or ganiZations. All over the eastern sec- ton of the country people felt that the price of feed had been too high, the price of poultry products too low, that there was need for organized ef- fort in buying and selling. As re- suit of this feeling, the New England Poultry Producers Exchange has been organized with offices in Boston and The National Poultry Federation has Leen formed with headquarters at Washington. In view of such unset led conditions and the feeling on the part of many poultry farmers that their poultry was no longer profitable, the management of the contest began to believe that perhaps there would not be the same interest in laying comptition another year as has ob- tained heretofore.
 The fact is that the college now has over 80 applications and only a total of 100 can be received. and this three months before the next contest opens. ready planning to send birds to Storrs next November.
 The three best pens in each of the principal varieties are as follows: Pen Barred Plymouth Rocks.

British Retire From Certain Positions
In Ypres Saient---Heavy German Loss

Out of the chaos of the tremendous
tattle and the Lys river, south and
southwest of Yypres, the thunder of
which may be heard forty or fifty
miles away, there have come during
the day reports which are encouraging
to the allied powers.
The British not only have held all
the ground which they were defend.
! ing Tuesday, but have struck back sc
powerfully that Meteren and a part
!, of Wytschaete were retaken and helC
for time. Only after heavy attacks
cid the British retire again from the
villages.
The utmost disturbing news is the
report from Berlin that Poelcapelle
and Langemarck, north of Ypres
lave been taken by the Germans anc
the admission from London that the
British have retired from certain po.
sitions in their lines in the Ypres sal.
lent. Retirements here was expected
for the German advance at Neuve
Eglise and Bailleul left the positions
in the front of Ypres open to flank
attack.
The official statement is that the
retirement is orderly and it probably
will have more of sentimental thar
6 stretegic effect. How far the Brit.
ish have withdrawn is unknown anc
j. may be that the German claim OF
t king Poelcapelle and Langemarck is
result of the British retirement.
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1918-04-19

The battle has been intensified at
many points along the curved front
from Messines Ridge to Meteren. Re-
ports have come that the Germans
have occupied St. Eloi village, which
is less than three miles south of
Ypres, but this report is unconfirmcd
On all the rest of thu front from Mes
sines Ridge, south and westward, the
Germans have flung themselves
against a granite wall.
Dispatches tell of frightful losses
inflicted on the attacking masses by
British rifles and machine guns.
On the southern side of the salient
were engagements of some magnitude
Especially east of Aobecq, where Ger
mans were caught and scattered by
British artillery fire.
On the line in front of Arras, The
British took the offensive and drove
the Germans from the British trenches
carried by the enemy.
In the Picardy sector the artillery is
lively between the Somme and Disc
rivers, but there are only patrol IN
counters.
