BRITISH SOON TO Be
IN CONSTANTTNOPLE
Probable Occupation Predicted
With Allied Fleet in the
Black Sea.
WOULD FREE RUMANIA
Naval Battle With Former
Russian Ships May Be
. Fought Soon.

LONDON, Nov. 1.--Discussing the i'm
mediate results OF Turkeys exit from
tho war. the Daily Neps to-day points
to the probability that Constantinople
will be occupied forthwith by the British
forces in Bulgaria, and that an allied
fleet will enter the Black Sea as soon as
the Dandanelles are swept OF mines.
THAT will have the effect" says the
newspaper. "of freeing the Rumanian
and south Russian coasts from the DOM
nation of the once Russian but now
German Black Sea feet. Since that feet
consists Of two dreadnoughts and sew
eral other serviceable vessels. and may
be Joined Immediately by the Goeben,
there Is a possibility of naval battle of
some magnitude, but II may well suit the
Allies to be content for the present with
sending submarines through these straits.
"On land the actual disappearance of
Turkey and the imminent disappearance
OF Austria as belligerents leave Germany
Isolated and ringed round with enemies.
Formidable allied forces arc released for
diversion TO new action on the frontiers
Of Saxony or Bavaria or elsewhere. The
case OF Germany sinks from the des-
perate to the irretrievable."
Close Contact With Russia.
One OF the important results OF the
Turkish submission, the Evening Stand
ard points out, will be the possibility OF
coming once more into close contact
with Russia, land the rendering of as
sistance to the classes under which that
vast State may be reconstructed finan-
ciaIly. economically. socially and politi-
cally.
The corn of southern Russia" contin-
ues the newspaper, will be available.
II will bring us into touch with the Ru-
Tanlan armies. II will also release
'arge military and naval forces for en-
p.oyment elsewhere IL the Kaiser and his
hackers decide to continue the hopeless
struggle.
Coupled with the break UP Of the
Austro-Hungarian Empire II spells the
complete isolation of the German Empire

TO OUR HOME SOLDIERS WHO
GUARD THE BREAD LINE

South Dakota is on the eve of haul
ing to her elevators the largest grain
crop in her history. Last year she
produced agricultural products to the
value of more than half a billion dol

crop will exceed the 1917 crop by
twenty-five per cent.
While the armies of the United
States are giving such a wonderful
account of themselves on the battle
fields of France. 1t becomes our du.y
to carefully guard the grain products
of South Dakota so that there will be

BUMPER GRAIN CROP. FOR U. S.
Wheat Will Exceed 1917 by 22s, ooo, 900
BusheIs-corn Crop Damaged by
Hot Weather.

Washington, Aug. 9.-The United
States wheat production for the year
is estimated in the monthly govern
ment report at S7S,O00,00O bushels and
the corn crop at 2,9S9,O00,000 bushels.
These figures are based on conditions
reported on August l.
These estimates, if proved correct at
the harvest, mean the country will
reap 17O,OOO,000 bushels less corn than
last year, but will make gain in the
wheat crop of 228,00O000 bushels. The
corn crop last year totaled 3,159,OOO.-
600 bushels and the wheat crop only
65O,OOO,O00 bushels.
Today's estimates show falling off
from the estimates of a month ago.
Then crops of 3.16O,OOO,OOO bushels of
corn and sol 100000 bushls of wheat
were predicted.
Other important government fore
casts today are: Oats, 1,42S,OOO,OOO
bushels barley, 232,Oo0,Ooo bushels;
rye. 100000 bushels.
Corn and wheat are bumper crops
this year despite adverse weather con-
ditions. which have curtailed some
what the heavy production indicated
earlier in the growing season.

CHEERFUL HEART GOES FAR
When You Come to Think of 1t, the
Man with Crouch" Is Seldom
Popular.

To keep the face cheerful, the voice
cheerful, to do good like a medicine,
we must keep the heart cheerful.
This is not an easy matter. One does
not simply have to say: II will be
cheerful" and then have 1t so. He
has to work for cheerfulness, just as
he works to be honest or kind or
brave, or learned. He must be looking
out for bright things to see and do.
He must deliberately, yet quickly,
choose which things he will think
about and how. He has to shut his
teeth, as it were, sometimes, and turn
away from the gloomy things, and do
something to bring back the cheerful
spirit again. If we are cheerful for
others, we are doing for ourselves.
Good given, means good sent back.
Cheerfulness can become habit, and
habit sometimes helps us over hard
places. A cheerful heart seeth cheer
full things.-Exchange.

TO EXEMPT MARRIED MEN
Secretary Baker Urges Change in Law
So Registrars Need Not
Classify Selves.

Washington, Aug. 10.-New draft
regulations, under which the govern
ment would do the selecting, are under
consideration by the war department.
This was disclosed on Friday by Sec
rotary Baker, after he had appeared
before the senate military committee
to urge prompt enactment of the act
extending the age limits. He made it
nlain that he is not satisfied with the
present system under which the regis
trant must. claim deferred classified
ton. Many with dependents hesitate
for patriotic reasons TO make such a
claim. He said he was inclined to the
opinion that the marriage relation will
inselfe constitute deferred classified
.tion. He wishes to lay down a set Of
questions for the registrant to answer
and then have rules take care OF the
classification.

ALLIES DESTROY $50 "SUBS'
Lloyd George Tells Commons of De-
struction of U-Boats-Britain Has
Raised Army of 100000.

London, Aug. S.-Since August, 1914,
including those already with the col
ors, Great Britain. alone has raised
for the army and navy 6,25O,OOO men
for the most part voluntarily, declared
Premier Lloyd George. The dOminions
have contributed 100000 men and
India 100000 men, he said.
One hundred and fifty German SUBJ
marines have been destroyed, Mr..
Lloyd George announced, more than
half of them in the last year.
General FOch by his commensurate
has driven the enemy back, and al
though the danger is not over, he would
be sanguine man on the German
general staff who would now predict
that Germany could obtain a military
victory, continued the premier. He
characterized General Foch's counter
offensive as "the most brilliant in the
annals of war;"
The Germans, declared the premier,
have attempted their land offensive be-
cause the submarine offensive has
failed.
Mr.. Lloyd George stated that during
July 100000 American troops had been
brought over, $4,000 of them in Brit
ish ships.
Until all the allies were defeated at
sea, Mr.. Lloyd George declared, Ger
many could never triumph.
The premier was speaking in the
house of commons, making a state
ment on the war situation.

is showing signs Of great anxiety and
apparently is anticipating a wide ex-
tension of the fighting front to the
north.
A German local attack north of
KENNEL on the Flanders front, was
repulsed after sharp fighting.
Chaulnes, the key to the southern
line of the German salient, was cap
tured by Australian and Canadian
troops. The fall of Chaulnes is said
to have followed a desperate struggle
with strong German forces rushed up
to cover the retreat.
British Advance on Bray.
The British encountered fierce oppO-
sitiOn north of the SOmme, but they
are now advancing down the long
slopes toward Bray, if they have not
already succeeded in reaching that
town.
At noon the allied line was as fol-
lows starting from the north: West of
Meaulte, which is still in German
hands; thence to Etinhem Framerville
and Lihons, which are still German;
Hallu station (the Germans hold Hal
lu); Parvillers, L'Eschelle and Arman-
court, and thence through TillolOy
Park and through the station of Roye-
sur-Matz to Mareuil-Lamotte to Sam
son and Machemont, from which it
joins the line on the Disc.
Foe Calls Reserves.
The enemy apparently is calling on
his reserves to help him save all ma
terial possible.
The pivot of the German resistance
at this stage of the battle, it now ap-
pears, is Noyon, about midway be-
tween Montdidier and Scissors.
The enemy is throwing in reserves
from this base to prevent, regardless
of cost, the allies from gaining control
of the Noyon-Ham road, which is
choked with material, guns and troops.
Try to Cover Flight.
The Germans are expected to make
a desperate stand on the Roye- Noyon
line to permit the columns retreating
in the direction of Nesle and Ham to
reach safety.
The resistance of the Germans is
stiffening against the Fourth British
army under General Rawlinson. They
are reaeting violently in the region of
Lihons, which changed hands twice
during the night, but which in the
morning was firmly held by the Brit
iSh.
In the area before Vauvillers the
enemy has been supported by heavy
artillery, but farther south the
French First and Third armies have
advanced slightly, and in this neigh
bOrhOod the Germans do not appear
to be too we'll supplied with artil
lery.
Fires Behind Line.
Large fires and long transport col
umns in the enemys back areas
strengthen the belief his heavy
counter-attacks against the British
are intended to afford time to evacu-
ate his stores.
The allied casualties in the first
two days of fighting were compara-
llNeIy uSHl DeCduSe lne allies Wiz
tually ran through the German po-
sitions. But since Saturday the fight
ing has been of more severe char
acter.
All the morning reports show -ex-
IRENE confusion among the enemy
forces in their precipitate retreat.
Among the prisoners taken are
generals, colonies and officers of all
grades. Eleven divisions of Generals
Won Hutier and Won Marwitz have
been identified by prisoners taken.
