Get Gardens Going.

The American people responded
sDleDdidly to the call last year to
increase production of foods by
widespread individual effort. Own
erS of magnificent estates who
formerly raised a great tumuIt if
single dandelion dared to raise its
head on the lawn. heroically plowed
their front yards. and potatoes,
beans. and onions appeared where
the velvet green had reigned su-
preme. Others, with only a few
square feet of opportunity and only
few hours a week to spare. also
dug and planted and watered. The
aggregate results were really worth
while, even though in many cases
there was GRO p failure. The physi-
cal benefit and the feeling of patri-
otto endeavor was, however, well
worth the work.
And now, as another planting
time is at hand. the effort should be
repeated and largely increased. To
those whose crop was disappointing
there is this word of encourage
ment: Many soils were what the
farmers call sour" condition often
cured by simply turning it over so
sun and air and rain can do their
work. Some soils needed only a
little fertiliZing and some consisted
of a few inches of black dirt cove
ing and bricks, and other rubbish
lift from building. But even the
poorest soils will be more responsive
this second year of planting and in
any event the yards and gardens
which will yield profitable return
will total thousands of acres, and
every pound which can be raised at
home will add just that much to
the canning factories to be put in
shape for shipment abroad. Toma-
toes. carrots, beans. beets. are all
easy TO raise, and the humble cab
ba &c is not to be despised, for it is
on e Of the most nutritious vegeta-
bl es; early in the war the Russian
army had little else than cabbage
for long time and fought hard.

irregular. I had severe, cutting pains
across my kidneys and a dull pain
through my hips, loins and limbs.
Doan's Kidney Pills in short time
completely cured the attack"

Minister of Munitions Informs House of Comomns That New Guns
 Are Ready.

LONDON, April 25.-In a state ment made before the house of com- mons today, Lord Churchill, minister of munitions, stated that all the guns ammunition and other supplies lost by the British during the first rush of the Germans three weeks ago, have been replaced, the armies now being in better condition for opera tions against the Germans than when the big. offensive began.
 The losses sustained by the British, Lord Churchill announced, included one thousand guns and five thousand machine guns.
 The government is prepared, he continued, to make good even great CT losses, but he does not anticipate any further great demand upon the British factories to meet such an emergency.

LINES ARE HOLDING

With the French Army, April 25. Yielding only slightly at the first shock of the new German drive on Amiens, the French and British lines are now holding solidly along the nine-mile front south of the Somme where the Germans appear to have concentrated their efforts.
 This showing by the defending forces is especially gratifying ir view of the fact that the present attack on the whole front, south oi the Somme and along the Avre, is the most formidable operation under taken by the Germans since the first drive in Picardy.

TANKS IN ACTION

With the British Army, April 20. Fighting tanks, which were lntro- duced in to the fighting on the Western front by the British, have made their appearance on both sides in the present operations. British tanks responded to the attack yes terday in the Viller Brettoneaux sec tor. cutting wide swaths in the Ger man infantry.
 A counter attack launched by the British early this morning forced the Germans from Daquienne wood and enabled the British to advance thelr positions in that sector and to re cover ground taken by the Germans yesterday. The fighting has been so intense in that quarter that the Germans have been unable to iauncf a counter attack against the Frencf and British front, intended to pave the way for the capture of kemme hill. ..-.:...... :..:. .s...
