British Launch Attack at DaIUn
Under Protection of Dense Foo
and Smash Through Foes Lines
lBy Morning journal Special Leased MIrel

With the British Army in France,
Aug. u (by the Associated Press)
1880 p. m.) Having smashed into
General Won Bellows seventeenth army
during a heavy fog at dawn today on
a front of more than ten miles, ex-
tending from the Ancre river to Moy-
enneville, the British have made
steady progress, capturing villages,
taking guns ana inflicting heavy cas-
ualties.
Coming on the heels of the battle
south of the Somme the scene of
which virtually adioins this field, the
blow exploits the confusion created
among the German forces
Heavy fighting has occurred along
the cfnbankment of the Albert-Arras
railroad which, although well within
the German lines last night, seems to
have been easily reached by the
storming British infantrymen, assist
ed by tanks 1t was from this en-
bankment that the Germans, armed
with countless machine guns, fired a
rain of bullets, but while they were
doing it they must have suffered Sc
yerely not only from machine gun fire
but from shells, for the British field
guns moved up closely in the rear of
the infantrymen and from their flank,
where the big British guns hurled in
an avalanche of steel from the north.
Brael Down Enemy Defense
AS is inevitable when battle RACES
with such intensity as along this em-
bankment, the exact situation is OBJ
scure, but reports have been received
that the British have broken dowp the
German defense at various places and
have passed through TO the eastern
side, Behind the embankment there
may not have been a great force Of
German reserves when the battle be-
gan, but by this time the harassed
enemy certainly is rushing men to the
scene as fast as he can, for another
disaster threatens him.
The battle opened with a sudden
crash of guns of all calibres just as day
was breaking. Great billows of thick
fog such as are seen only on this side
of the Atlantic, hung over the scene.
The infantrymen and tank crews
could scarcely see a hundred feet
ahead of them and the flare of count
less blazing cannon was smothered,
while explosions from their mouths
rolled up into a continuous deadening
roar.
Fog Favorable 10 Attackers.
The fog was most favorable to the
attacking formations, for it effective
ly shielded them from the eyes Of the
enemy and at the same time caused
the Germans opposite to believe that
the attack was not directly against
them.
The guns sounded long way off"
said one of the early prisoners. $50
we congratulated ourselves that we
were not to be attacked. Just then

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion Of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure catarrhal deafness and that
is by constitutional remedy. Ca
tarrhal deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lin
ing OF tho Eustacheon tub. When
this tube is lntlamed you have
rumbllng sound or imperfect near
ing, and when it IS entirely closed,
deafness is the result. Unlefs the
inflammation can be reduced andthis
tube restored to its normal condi
ton hearing Will be destroyed for
ever. Many cases Of deafness arc
caused by catarrh, which is an IN
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Halls Calarrh Medicine acts
thru the blood ON the mucous sur
faces of the system.

COUNTY AGENT
FOR POTTER
Potter County 10 Get Direct Benefit
Of Many Federal Activities

The Press is able TO heartily
endorse the latest move of Pot
ter county farmers to get a Coun-
ty Agent In all the reading of
our South Dakota exchanges. we
do not recall a single instance of
county becoming dissatisfied with
the proposition. WE are indebted
to the Potter County News for the
following account OF the meeting
held last week to effect a prelimi-
nary organization.
Mr., Ed. Ehason of Cattron twp
has been appointed as one of the
comitteemen for the west end of
the county.
In order to further the increas-
ed production of food stuffs the
US. government has taken hold of
the county agent proposition and
has made it possible !or every
county to have county agent at
PRACTICAL y no local cost. MIR. I'm
dcrwood of Pierre was in The Mty
last Thursday and met with the
council of defense and a number
of interested men. to start the nee
essary organization.
Briefly stated, county agent
is man drawing a salary from The
government. who would he sent
here TO open an office and devote
his time exclusively to assisting
Potter county farmers and stock
ralsers, to improve crop condi
tlons, farming methods, and par
tlcularly to assist in prevention of
disease amorsG, sF.,ce: and eradica
tion of disease w6fich may have
developed. All that the county is
asked to do is to furnish heated
and suitably furnished office and
to pay for the services of y stem
ographcr when one is required
MIR. j. b. Clark, chairman of
the board of county commissioners
who was present at the meeting,
stated that there We're two furnish
cd and heated rooms at the court
house which were not in use, and
that there was no reason why the
office question could not be easily
and satisfactorily disposed o f
in that way. Mr.. Underwood
stated that IN all probability n
stenographer would not be needed
more than one or two days week.
"Etery county agent is required
to keep an automobile, so that he
will be ready at any time to re-
spond to calls from any part Of the
county.
''ln order to secure the county
agent it is necessary that an organ
lzation be formed with not less than
200 members, who must pay an
entrance fee of 81 each. The
money secured IN this way remains
in the hands of the local treasurer
and is used to defray such few
local expenses as there may be
The work of the agent, however
is not confined TO members of the
organization, but Is for every resi-
dent OF the county.
At the preliminary meeting a
the office of l.. j O'Keehe q pre-
liminary organization was formed
and j. Il. Clark. J. E. Myler, W
S. Manful. &. NJ Breene and j G
Lucas were named as an executive
committee to get the matter start
ed. They in turn divided tn
county into nine districts and hay
, named committeeman In each dis
trict to organize their districts
