A MORE LIKELY ACCOUNT

With the American Army, France,
April 21.--After the heavy German
attack of yesterday, the American
main position remained intact and
this morning, after a brief lombard
ment, the Americans attacked and
drove the enemy out of the old out
posts which they had maintained,
thus breaking down an offensive
which it is believed was intended as
the beginning Of German plan to
separate the Americans and French.
There was comparative lull today
along the sector northwest of Toul.
The Americans engaged in the ter
rife hand-to-hand fighting yesterday
showed the most daring bravery,
stories of which are being recounted.
As indicating the violence of the
offensive, French ambulance men, who
went through the famous battle of
Verdun, declared today that, compar-
atively speaking, the German artiI-
lery fire against the Americans was
heavier than in any single engage
ment on the Verdun front at any time.

TEUTOHS AFRAID To
TELL THE TRUTH
To Their People Regarding the Re-
suit of Their Attack Saturday on
Americans Near TOul
ASSOCIATED Press)

With the American Army, France,
April 2O.-Twelve hundred German
storm troops. the largest number ever
concentrated against the American
troops for an offensive operation,
were hurled against the American
positions on a one-miIe front east of
the Renneres forest, northwest of
Toul today after a terrific lombard
ment of gas and high explosive shells.
The enemy succeeded IN penetrat-
ing the front line trenches and taking
the village of Seicheprey, but after
furious hand-to-hand fighting, which
was still going on a nightfall, the
American troops reeaptured the vii
lage and most of the ground lost in
the early fighting.
The attacking troops carried ra-
tions and entrenching tools, indicating
that they intended to occupy the Am
erican positions for long period. A
heavy haze overhung the sector when
the attack began but later there was
brilliant sunshine. The American ar
tillerymen did valiant work, the men
on many of the batteries wearing
gas masks.
The enemy's casualties are believed
to have been the heaviest sustained by
them thus far in any operation against
American troops. Numbefs of German
dead are lying in no-man's-land in
front of the American trenches.
No Americans were taken prisoner
but three Germans were captured.
German airplanes, flying at low
altitude, endeavored to disorganize
the Americans resistance by spray
ing the American lines with machine
gun fire. The American lines remained
virtually intact.
The German airmen poured machine
gun fire into the American troops, but
the anti-aircraft batteries came into
play and American airmen took the
air, bringing down two of the enemy
planes and dispensing the others. All
the American airmen returned safely.

WHY THERE IS NO PHONE
AT THE UNION STATION

Editor Star: From statements
made on the street it seems that some
of the citizens of Ocala are blaming
the telephone company for discontinue
ing the telephone service at the union
station. The following are the facts
in the case:
When the union station was occu-
pied, the S. A. L. ordered the tele-
phone installed in the union station.
The S. A. L. paid for the service
November and December, 1917. Since
that date the telephone has been
charged to the Union Station Com
pany. It has been billed on the first
of each month for the service as all
other subscribers, but has never writ
ten the telephone people anything
concerning it or paid one cent for
service during 1913. Four months
have been billed; four months they
have not paid. Whose fault it is we
do not know. We are anxious to fur
nish the service, but only on the basis
the railroads furnish tickets to Wash
! ington. The management of the tele-
phone company thought it had fur
nished free service long enough and
ordered it discontinued.
Yours truly,
J. P. Phillips, Manager.
April %, 1913.
There is no reason to blame the
telephone company for taking out the
| phone; it would be treating its other
subscribers unfairly if it didn't. The
blame is on either the stinginess or
the carelessness of the Union Station
Company, which should repair its
omission as soon as possible, as hav-
/ ing no phone in the station is an IN
excusable imposition on the public.

sending you a tag from Some cottonseed

chemicals to use with 1t. rms cottonseed
meal cost $4,000 per ton. What would
be the analysis of the guano when mxedf
A ton of the character of feed meal
which you have purchased would prob
ably not contain much over 60 to IS
pounds of nitrogen. There would prob
ably be about % to 80 pounds of phos-
phoric acid and 20 or rs pounds OF
potash. You understand, of course,
these figures are approximate. This
meal would not contain more than half
as much plant food as what is known
as a prime grade of cottonseed meal
The price you paid for this for fer
tilizing purposes was, therefore, very
high, as you should have obtained a ton
of what we would class as good cot
tonseed meal, containing not less than
per cent of ammonia, for $47.50. If
your were to mix one-half ton of the
meal you have on hand with 1000
pounds of acid phosphate you would
probably provide as good formula as
you are likely to secure this year. There
should not be much difficulty in OBJ
tanning acid phosphate from some deal
er in your section. I could not say Off
hand just what the price would be,
probably SIS to s25 per ton. One thou
sand pounds of meal and 1000 pounds
of acid phosphate would contain APP
proXimately 80 pounds of available nj
trogen, IT'S pounds of availabue phos-
phoric acid and 10 pounds Of potash.
These figures are. of course, approx
mate The percentage composition
would. therefore, be only is per cent
nitrogen and 81 per cent phosphoric
acid, with about % per cent of potash.
This would be rather a low grade fer
tilizer and it would be greatly inn
proved if you could mix about 100 to
200 pounds of nitrate of soda with it..
We suggest that you use this formula
at the rate of not less than 800 pounds
per acre under cotton and about 500
pounds under sweet potatoes. We con-
slider the addition of the nitrogen es-
sential in either event.

Sawdust has very little fertilizing
value SO little indeed that it is doubt
full whether it would pay you to haul 1t
out and distribute it on your land. In
the case of very heavy land which needs
to be lightened up it probably could
be scattered over. the surface at the
rate of several loads per acre. Its chief
value however, would be as an amelio-
rant TO the heavy condition of the soil
rather than as a fertilizer. We would
advise you rather to gather up all the
leaf mold and rich woods earth you
can obtain and use it at the rate Of
two or more tons per acre under the
drill row for such crops as corn and
cotton. In addition wei would use a
mixture of cottonseed meal and acid
phosphate at the rate of 800 pounds
and upwards per acre. Put the ferti-
lizer in the drill row and mix thor
oughly with the subsoil and bed there
on for cotton The fertilizer should
be so admixed with the soil that It
will not come in direct contact with
the seed. We are sure you will find
the woods earth and leaf mold much
more effective as a source of plant
food and as a soil ameliorant than the
sawdust.

All scientists agree that poisonou,
products in the blood are eliminated by
the kidneys and liver. The kidneys act
as kind of filter for these products.
When the kidneys are changed or de-
generated, by disease or old age, then
these poisons are retained in the BODY.
If we wish to prevent old age coming
on too soon, or if we want to increase
our chances for a long life, DR.. Pierce of
the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, says
that you should drink plenty of water
daily between meals to flush the kidneys.

If we wish to keep our kidneys in the
