PLANNING NEXT WHEAT CROP

Abilene, Kan Sept. An the heart
of the wheat belt plans are being
made for the next wheat crop to be
a record breaker Probably 60 pei
cent of the land is already under
plough, and on every farm teams and
tractors are busy. The comparative
failure of the corn crop has lessened
the enthusiasm for utilizing the
ground for that cereal instead ot
wheat-which was one of the leading
arguments of farmers when they ask
ed for higher wheat prices. Had
there been a record breaking corr
yield this season corn would have
been a favorite, owing to the money
return.

Paris. Sept. War strategists of
the French, British and American ar
mics are almost unanimous in their
opinion that the German failure to
counter attack for the possession of
the Queant-Drocourt line gives added
credence to unofficial reports that still
another line has been prepared-a
switch line from Bremieres to MOeuv-
res-and that here valiant effort
will be made to stem the tide of the
battle. The British already have
reached Rumaucourt, short distance
from this new line, and both from
the north and the south they are ap'
preaching it.
While the greatest progress con-
tinues to be made southeast and east
of Arras, momentous events appar-
emily are impending north of Sois-
sons. Here General Mangin has for
several days been pushing forward in
a slow but steady advance until he
now holds the key position to the
Vesle front, from which, if their move
ments are an indication Of their plan
of vancouver, the Germans plan to re-
treat back of the Aisne or to the
Chemin des Danes. The Germans
have been forced out of the Ailette
river sector and the main defenses
of the Hindenburg line are endanger-
ed A thrust by the Franco-American
forces at this place would be serious
menace to the German lines south and
east of scissors.
That this thrust is momentarily ex-
pected is shown by great activity back
of the German lines, but the Ameri-
can and French forces wait with ut
most confidence in their power to
thrust aside every obstacle.
