Huns Penetrate Front Line Trenches Between La
 Clytte and Voormezeele
NEW ATTEMPT TO OUTFLANK ALLIES
iIaig Reports That But for Small Sue ccsSeS. the Germans RepulSed- French Rapture Prisoners and
 Australians Take Prisoners.

Associated Press War Summary
 What possibly may probe to lie the prelude to the long expected re- sumption of hostilities by the Ger mans on the western front is being played southwest Gf Ypres, from the region of Voormezeele to LaCIytte.
 The Germans have launched an at tack against the French and British troops holding the line and at aer- tain points over the five-mle battle front they have met some success by penetrating front line trenches. Alp parently however, over the greater part of the field of combat they met with repulse. As is usual the enemy began the attack after heavy pre- liminary borbardment. The ground gained is south of Dickebush Lake, and in Ridgewood. ground which places hard fighting was continuing at last accounts.
 The objective of the enemy seems. to be the pushing forward of his line in this region in order still fur ther to outflank Ypres. on the south west, and press on toward Poeper- IHSnc, ana LHe TdlIWdy llHe running between that town and Ypres. As yet only meagre advices have come thru concerning the nature of the engagement, but unofficial reports indicate that it was made only in divisional strength.
 On the remainder of the front in Flanders and Picardy artillery duels and small operations continue on is- plated sectors.
 The French south of LaClytte have penetrated German advance positions and taken prisoners. and the Aus tralians east of Amiens have again pinched in and taken over portions of the German line.
 On the other battle fronts the op- erations continue of a minor charac- ter. In Mesopotamia the British have advanced their line to within 80 miles of Mosul, capturing the town of Kerkuk, which the Turks evacaua- ted without giving battle.

APPLYING FERTILIZER.

'T am thoroughly convinced that ap- plying fertilizer broadcast, on or too near the surface, is a mistake, as the little feeding rootlets of the potato have a most wonderful way of search Ing for and finding fertilizer, and to draw these near the surface between the rows and then cut them off with the cultivator does not give the best results, hence our effort to get some of the fertilizer below the seed piece. My objection to applying fertilizer with the planter Is the difficulty in getting the fertilizer deep enough without planting the seed piece toe deep, and then, too, we never succeeded in spreading and applying the fertilizer In as wide a ribbon as does the dis tributor. Eighteen hundred pounds of fertilizer per acre has proven to be the most profitable amount to use, and potash, even in these war times, has been proven both economical and nee essary, per cent being used this year"--Earl Dilatush in Rural New Yorker.

LACES FOR SPRING.
Afternoon Dresses and Lingerie
 Frocks to Be Worn.
American Loom Products Arc New Taking the Place of Weaves That
 Were Formerly Imported.

Lace afternoon dresses and lingerie frocks are to be worn this spring, ac- cording to some indications. At an ex- hibition held recently some of the most attractive gowns made from or in com bination with American-made laces were shown.
 The adaptability of the American manufacturer was here very clearly demonstrated, for the laces included most of the best known varieties cluny, venise, net and filet.
 As to the gowns, they could honestly be called successful. One especially at- ractive model had a one-sided draped waist which showed the lace under and over the chiffon which was used for the gown.
 Lingerie dresses are in flesh colored and pale tinted fabrics, and tinted as well as white laces are used with them -also little insects of embroidery for summer wear are the voiles and tinted voiles, with soutache braiding in pat terms which are conventional in design for the most part, no matter how much ground they may cover.
 For trotter frOcks and street wear in general, are frocks of silk jersey, some of which show clever use of flat braid, applied closely in rows. Dark blue, taupe and black are the usual colors, and the braiding usually matches rather than contrasts with the dress. Button the-back dresses, wide braided girdles and models with high collars are new or old features of this seasons gowns, just as you choose to look at it.
 Pongee was used for spring suit, which was embellished with braiding and further boasted of dotted foul- ard vest, with the conventional points in the front The braiding ran up and down both sides of the front and around on the skirt part of the coat. In spite of all this decoration the col ors matched exactly except for the white spots on the vest, and the sim pie lines helped to give the desired air of simplicity.
 Midnight blue satin was the material chosen for a three-piece suit which was cut with short bobbed-on Eton jacket and wide sleeves cut of at the wrists. The crepe was used again for the top of the dress, which was straight up and down and collarless. Cuffs and collar on the jacket were of peacock blue, and worn with this costume was . hat covered with peacock feathers.

A QUESTION: OF AREAS.

In 1916 both Michigan and New York grew the same area of potatoes-ap- proximately 32O,OOO acres. On this area the state of Michigan produced, in round numbers, 15.OOO.OOO bushels of potatoes. New York. for her share, however. produced 2, 4O0. 900 bushels an increase of nearly 50 per cent.
 With such a difference as this it is apparent that in the work of food pro- duction, the question of soil manage ment and of crop management is of ut most importance-for whenever it be- comes profitable to do so, there is no doubt that Michigan can increase her potato yield up to or beyond that now obtained by New York state.

Maine, was cut in half because Of the attack of fungus disease. Potato bugs take their toll all over the coun- try. No section is free from the early blight. The business farmer foresees all these troubles, and insures to pro- tect himself against loss from bugs, beetles and blights.
 The diagram shows something of the increase of the potato crop which may be expected from spraying. At the. left of the heavy vertical line are shown the crops grown either without spray ing or with only the half-spray-the spray which "gets" the bugs but does not prevent the blights. At the right the crop has received 8 complete spray. Spraying has evidently done more than merely guarantee to the farmer that he will get back what he puts into the crop-f0r it has turned splendid profit.
 How Potato Spraying Brings Results. These astonishing results are secured only by proper spraying. First, the poison of the spray kills the potato beetles. Second, the spray so discour- ages the destructive flea beetles as to cut down by nine-tenths the damage which they do. Third, the early blight It's prevented, and the vines allowed to come to. full maturity. Fourth, tip- burn is reduced so it amounts to but little; and fifth, the potato blight and rot is stopped.

 Frlcassee of Fish-Take a good sized bass, carefully remove the skin. after cleaning the fish. Bone the fish and chop 1t fine. Cover all the bones and rough pieces with cold water-a pint or less will be sufficient -after it has cooked an hour. Beat three table spoonfuls of butter to cream, add a eupful of soft breadcrumbs to the pint of strained fish stock, stir, add butter which has been mixed with the yOlk of an egg, two tablespoonfuls of chop ped parsley and pepper and salt to taste and a half tablespoonful of par mesan cheese.

How much does 1t cost YOU to raise an acre of potatoes?
 How much of your own labor. or that of your men, goes into the potato crop?
 What is the cost of the fertilizer and manure which you use on the crop?
 How much does the seed cost you7
 What should you charge for the use of the land?
 What part of the money which you put in do you actually get back?
 The chances are that you cannot an- swer all of these questions. Probably no one can. The figures will vary in different cases. Yet what you know, and what all potato farmers know, is that this year labor costs more than ever before, fertilizers are more dif1- cult to get, and good seed is hard to find. Your investment in the potato crop will be more this year than it usu- ally is-and even under the best of conditions it is so high that you shiver at the thought of losing the crop.
 In 1845 the potato blight caused the great Irish famine, and half a million people starved to death (because of the failure of the crop). In 1917 the potato crop of Aroostook county,

Heavy Satin.

Perhaps you have been 8 bit wor- ried when you have read that before long we may be asked to refrain from buying woolen coats and frocks. Don't worry. One of the things promised for spring is a very heavy double faced satin. It is to be used largely for coats and Is made in such com binations as dark green and drab, claret and black and blue and black. It makes one quite resigned to the fact that wool is scarce and that 1t is patriotic thing as soon as the weather moderates to forego it's use as much as possible.
