Of
THE GERMANS
GREATEST EVER.
FEW SURVIVE THE
ALLIED RESISTANCE.
On the Two Wings, Teuton.
Have Been Unable to Make
Headway

WITH THE FRENCH AEMY m
TRANCE, June 1o-(By the AssoetA-
ted Press.)-Fighting In this war
probably never has been more severe
than that going On to-day, in tho great
battle Of French and German arInieA,
between Montdidier and Noyon.
The Germans, attacking on
ground where the entente allies were
ready to receive the shock, have found
themselves thrown into a slaughter
house whence most Of them never WIN
make an exit.
When the German infantry began
coming over in the densest masses
they encountered Immediately An ex-
trenlely hot fire from both machine
guns and artillery, which moved them
down. Ever since, as fresh waves on
tered the conflict, they wore subjected
to si1nilar punishment.
The German progress must not DO
taken to mean that the German forces
have overcome the defenders, who In
tended from the begisning to retire
to their actual lines Of combat as SOON
as the action developed. 2
Some idea Of the detr -:nined nature
Of the fighting may be gathered from
the struggle On each wing. Tne VII
lage Of CourcelIes charged hands
numerous times and, when this dis
patch was sent, was in tho possession
Of the allies. At the Other enc OF thu
line, Mont Remand WAS still making
magnificent defense, AID last reports
showed that LIE Plelnout was yet in
allied hands.
The center. about -Matz,
where the Germans made their most
obstinate effort aud formed pocket
tending southeastuard, Is nc oEiy
part Of the line against wiieh the
Germans have been able &c report q
real ga:u. Their intention IS to tr7
20 reach the banks OF the o15e and
threaten the allied Galic-,t which ex-
tends to the vicinity Of Eoyon.
The Germans knew Thcr they
opened the attack tina: their task
would be difficult. Therefore, they
sent Into tho fray only chosen d1vt~
sions, which had been specially trained
for the assault. 1t Is estimated tina:
they engaged approximately twenty
divisions on the front line for the Hrst
shock, while behind these. ready 20
take the place OF tie exhausted divi-
sions, there probably were similar
number, perhaps even greater.

The battle has been described by
correspondents as one OF the most
furious that has been fought since the
war began, with the enemy unusually
reckless in wasting life TO gain his
ob!ectives.
The latest Official communication
from the German war office says ad-
ditioral ground has been gained by tho
Germans southwest Of Noyon against
newly brought up French reinforce
rnents and that the Germans have
taken about 5000 prisoners and Sorno
guns.
Near Bussiares, northwest OF Cha
teau Thierry the Americans ana
French again have delivered strong
attacks agairst the German lines
and taken more ground. They have
also captured number OF prisoners
and thirty machine guns. On the re-
naairder Of the front IN France and
Belgium tho operations have been OF
minor nature, although south OF the
sorne tho British near Bouzencoure
have carried out an operation which
srai4hteued ont threatening salient
that sagged In their Line.
As the Austrians continue TO bring
up large forces Of men behind their
lines In the italian theatre, the arttl-
lery activity and raidinS operations
are daily 1ncrea sing. Throughout the
mountain regions from TonAle to the
8renta river and along the lower
reaches of the Piave river tho guns OF
both sides are engaged In violent
duels. Numerous surprise attacks have
been attempted by the Austrtans in
various sectors, but all Of them were
successfully repuused. Aerial opera
ttons on q large scale also arc IN pro-
gress and fights in the air are Of daily
occurrence. Large quantities OF eIplo-
sives have been dropped on enemy po-
sitions by Italians and number OF
enemy aircraft have been shot down.
In the Macedonia theatre there also
has been an increase IN the artillery
activity the enemy bonn harding the
allied lines on both sides Of the var
dar river. On the part Of the front
held by the Serbians the artillery fire
has been unusually severe.
Official announcement has been made
to the headquarters at London fhat
34S officers, men nurses, women OF
the medical corps and civilians were
killed up to June l by German air
raiders bombing hospitals. and that
e4a persons were wounded In these

TRACTORS MAKE
 bETTERFA ARNERS
By Ernest G. Coan, Advertisinq Man
 aeer Pratt Gilbert Companv

aSer Pratt Gilbert Company
 l have before me a letter from q friend, Colorado farmer, telling me that he and several other neighbors purchased small Avery tractors the past spring in order that they might speed up their crop production. These men are what we might term small farmers. He says that every man will get back half or more the cost of his tractor this year and if he could not get another he would not dispose of his at any price.
 The most notable thing about the sale of tractors to farmers is that they are giving satisfaction. Where there Is any dissatisfaction it is due to the l type of the machine or to the care l lessness in the operation of the tractor
 But the idea 1 want to bring out is that not only is the power of the i tractor increasing production but it's work is educating the farmer as well or might better say transforming his methods of farming. There is no sys- tematizer like a tractor. the greatest farm efficiency expert in the country It gives the farmer a feeling of i'm portance and teaches him more the value of time and labor reduction
 Let us look at some of the ways h which tractor acts as a transformer:
 It makes for better field arrange ment. It increases the alertness of the farmer and leads to the adoption o1 better methods. He learns the value of rotation cover crops, and the proper distribution of farm work. All thes, things eventually lead to greater croI production.
 The use of the tractor means bigger crops. It is apparent that anything ! which will make tillage easier will dc much to increase crop production. One

 The run to the coast was made in fine time, though no effort was made to cut the interstate record, and the new owners report that the cars are doing spendidly, in fact, cars and owners are doing well. as they say in the birth notices.
 The picture was taken just before starting on the tour to the west and was posed in front of the Phoenix Motor company. agency for the famous Studebaler line and Sandusky trac- tors.

WATCH BATTERIES
 IN SUMMER, ADVICE

More battery trouble develops in summer than any other season of the year and the storage battery must be watched carefully if the motorist wants to avoid this trouble.
 During the warm weather the cleo trolyte evaporates much more rapid ly,' says E. l.. Gielow, chief electrician for the Western Machinery company. Consequently the cells must be tested oftener to see that the specific gray ity is up to a certain point, also, fresh water must be added oftener to bring the liquid up to the proper level.'
 "A battery properly cared for rarely gives the owner any trouble, even though it is a complicated apparatus. Our service station is here for that purpose, to give the battery fresh dis titled water when needed, to test it regularly to see that it is not being overheated, or starved, etc.
 Every car owner is invited to come to us for that service no matter what kind of battery he has on the car"

ED RUDOLPH MAKES RUN ID COAST IN
 FORD IN TWO DAYS

Ed. Rudolph, Ford agent, while out after road records, hung up a mark in his Ford last week in vacation run to the Pacific coast which shows what the little car can and will do-if such showing was necessary in this day and age. MT. Rudolph pulled out from Phoenix on Monday morning in his trusty Ford and was in Venice by the sad sea waves on Tuesday evening This shows that the Ford will go with the best of them when it comes to desert travel.
 MT. Dore is on the job at the Ford establishment. as he always is, in Mir Rudolph's absence. He announced yes terday that another consignment of Fordson tractors is on its way and will soon be here. while the estab- lishment is ready to make immediate deliveries of Ford trucks and of the enclosed model of Ford cars.
 Every effort is, of course, being made to get standard Ford machines as soon as possible, but there is still a

Practical Paragraphs
Nut Retainer

Nut Retainer
 The simplest method of insuring that a nut shall not be loosened on it's bolt by vibration or other accident, is to take a punch and distort the thread just above the nut after the latter has been fully run on. It is only necessary to distort the thread little and when the nut is run off with a wrench. it will restore the thread to it's original shape.

reason for this is that the portions of land taken in are usually the best fertile on the farm. Another thing is that this introduction of new land in creases the area titled to a consider able extent. Then the depth of blow ing is increased and the plant roots given grea ar feeding space. All these forces work for bigger crops as soon as a tractor is bought, while a multi tude of other conditions get in their work later.
 The tractor will give the farmer big ger profits. Increased production not only means that the farmer will have more produce to sell, but it means that his whole output will be marketed on more intelligent basis and at q greater margin of profit.
