BELIEVE GERMANS HAVE
REACHED END OF RUSH

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN
FRANCE, June 3.-The allied troops
feel that the enemy has reached the
virtual end of this rush. Ground is
now given up only when the allied
commanders consider it useless to hold
it and when combats occur they are
fought on a much more equal basis
than heretofore. The troops have
never lost confidence in their ability
to prevent a breach in the line and
now with British and French reinforce
ments arriving rapidly, the morale OF
the allied armies is higher than ever.
Throughout Sunday series of at
tacks and counter attacks brought into
action large bodies. of troops all about
the villages forming a sort of line
along the borders OF the forest of Vii
lers-Cotterets. The possession of these
villages is of the utmost Importance
for future developments.

GERMANS ACCENTUATE
MOVEMENT IN SOUTH

WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN
FRANCE. June BY the A. P-]-The
Germans have accentuated their move
ment to the South of the forest OF Vii
Iers-Cotterets and in the valley OF the
Ourcq and at the same time are at
tempting to push forward further TO
the north between the Aisne and the
Disc rivers. This is indicated clearly
by their concentrations OF troops.
The enemy is able to command the
portion of Chateau Thierry which lies
on the northern bank of the Marne,
but the allies still retain the Southern
portion.

LEFT OVER SEEDS
MAY BE GOOD

By using the best of vegetable seed
stocks left over from last season a
good deal can be done to overcome the
present seed shortage. Seed prices are
going to be higher than those of last
year, and seed should be purchased and
used with great discrimination. A. G..
Bouquet, head of vegetable gardening
at 0. A. c., offers the following sug-
gestions as to the use of left over
seed stocks:
Beets, cabbage, caulitlower, ruta-
baga, turnips and related plants may
grow well even if four or five years
old. Spinach does rot give so good
results in the second and third years.
Toaatoes. peppers and egg plants are
uGbally good for three years; squash
and pumpkins, five to eight beans and
sweet corn three; peas and lettuce,
three.
Onion, parsley, carrot and parSnlp
seed usually should be fresh, although
two-year old seed sometimes gives
good satisfaction. Onions and parsnlps
will not usually germinate more than
30 to 60 per cen, the second year. All
Of the shortlived left over seed should
be tested for termination.
The shortage may be further relieved
by estimating the amount needed be.
fore purchase, buying good seed from
reliable dealers. right preparation OF
soil for gerimnation, seeding at proper
time to avoid loss, and thinner seeding
in the rows so that fewer plants will
be wasted in thinning. The amount OF
seed Of various kinds required to plant
hundred foot row are given in ''The
Home Vegetable Garden" No. 281
prepared by Prof. Bouquet. Copies
may be had on request to O. A. G..

BUMPER APPLE CROP
Is LOOKED FOR

With indications pointing to a bump
er crop of more than 1000, 600 boxes
of apples the coming fall, growers are
now confronted with the problem Of
proper application of spray. More
than 100 skilled spray machine men
have been called away in army or navy
service, and it is feared that q high
percentage of fruit marred by disease
pests or fungus may result unless
measures are taken to train new spray
machine experts. Leroy Childs pro-
poses a school for tho instruction Of
new spraymen.
Except for the cost of paper, which,
according to an announcement by A.W.
Stene will be bought for one cent less
per pound than last season, all other
materials used in apple production will
cost more the coming year. Boxes, it
is said, will cost at least a cert more
than last season, and while shortage
viii prevail in some districts, the AS
socation has already placed contracts
for its members. The Association has
ordered 20 carloads Of paper.

Facts About Mount Hood
lFrom the Oregon Voter

How high is Mount Hood and how
far is it from Portland?
Mt Hood is II, 1875 feet high and is
so miles from Portland
Its height equals 43 city blocks, a
little over two miles.
1t is 200 times higher than Mount
Tabor.
1t is 500 times higher than the Yeon
building.
In an air line it is the same distance
from Portland as is Salem, the state
capital.
In bulk, Mount Hood is nearly 40
times grester than Pixies Peak, which
probably is the best-known of Ameri-
can peaks, so far as the populous east
is concerned. Pixies Peak is IA, l47
Feet high. measured from sea level,
but it rises only 5000 feet above the
level of the plains and only 1900 feet
above the mountain plateau upon
which it rests. Mount Hood rises
II, lao feet above the Columbia river
at Hood River, and 5000 feet above
the valley floors to the aountain.
Try your memory 80 miles from
Portland and II, ,i25 feet high. Re-
member these figures this week next
week we will have some other figures
that will help you answer another
question asked by everyone who visits
Portland.

There would also be less danger of the
