TRENCH s1Io.
Advocated for Preservation Of Bee
Top Silage.

4VP 0Ao8os
This method of storing sugar
beet tops is successfully practiced
by many farmers in Colorado. The
greatest difficulty seems to be that
of constructing fence strong
enough to keep the livestock from
invading the trench. Evidently
they like beet top silage.
The trench should be located on
elevated. well drained ground, con-
venient to the place of feeding. 1t
should be three to five feet deep
and five to ten feet wide, also of
sufficient length to hold the crop.
In digging the trench, team can
be used thereby saving time and
labor.
It should have gradual slope
at each end so that the tops can be
hauled directly down into the
trench. The weight Of the team
and wagon will aid in packing the
silage. Some people use an alfalfa
renOvator or q roller, maintaining
that more satisfactory results in
packing are obtained.
The beet tops are placed in lay.

extension of the allied front from
Rheims to the sea had reached to &C

said, additional troops were necessary

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
FRANCE, Friday, June IA. - The
first raid by an American bombing
squadron behind the German lines
was accomplished with successful and
satisfactory results, the Americans
performing like veterans. Some of
the observers already had been on
similar flying missions with French
or British pilots and they knew ex-
actly how to gauge accurately the
fall Of the bombs.
CAS- they made their start for Ger
many, the bombing planes received
quite an ovation. A number of
French and British aviators and offic-
ers and a large number of American
fliers cheered them from the flying
field as they came racing down the
grass, tilted upward and then turned
north toward the enemys lines.
The German anti-aircraft batteries
gave them a hot reception as they
crossed the front but this -shelling
was extremely tame compared to what
they underwent as they approached

American planes, leading the squadron

The appearance of the German sub

arresting development from whatever
point of view it is studied and oppor-
tunity was given this week to Archi-

departure en- the part of the Germans
and its effect upon the naval situation

ment Of success in all warfare, and
particularly in naval warfare, but
there are time when a chief of staff
can speak with necessary reserve
without giving information to the en-

leaders of the fighting forces must

"The enemy has merely made a
demonstration with the hope of caus-
ing us to discentralize our efforts to
put down the submarine. His object
is to frighten the American people in
the hope that they may exert their in
fluence on their naval authorities.
The Germans, you may be sure,
have been studying the charts and in
sending one of their so-called subma-

they thought to raise an outcry in the

LONDON, June 15.-German sub
marine activity off the Atlantic coast
Of the United States should not be
taken very seriously, as the Germans
probably will not attempt blockade
of tie American shores. This is the
opinion of Vice Admiral Sir Rosslyn
Wemyse, first sea lord of the British
admiralty. The admiral believes that
there is only one submarine operating
off the American coast and that the
purpose Of its trip across the Atlantic
was to frighten the Americans.
German ruthlessness at sea. the
first sea lord declared. must be met
by centralized warfare in the North
Sea and the Mediterranean.
Admiral Wemyse paid tribute to the
cooperation of the American naval
forces in European waters. He said
the American ships not only were sta
toned in the North hut were also
