ALLIES MAKE GAINS
Win Back in Three Weeks Most
Of Last Territory

After the battle Of the Ayte, the
situation Of the belligerents presents
a change which far rapidity and ex-
tent has rarely been approached in
military history. Marshal Foch's
strategy and the .masterly tactics Of
the generals commanding the armies
and groups Of armies under him have
in three weeks wrested from the Ger
mans what required four months for
them to obtain at cost variously
estimated at from 100000 to 1,00O,-
600 men.
The immediate results of the
counter offensive which will have the
greatest bearing on substantial oper-
ations are the clearing OF the Chateau
Thierry pocket, ending the menace
to Epernay and Paris; the liberation
Of Montedidier. ending the menace to
Amiens; the freeing of the important
eastern railroad line from Paris to
Chalons and the equally important
northern line from Paris to Amiens.

COTTON SET BACK
The coniiuued Drouth Has Caused
Great Damage

The past two weeks we're very
pnfavorable for cotton in the
western belt. Drouth end high
temperatures caused serious deter
ioration IN Oklahoma and through
out most of Arkansas. The
critical situation in Texas was in
tensifed says the Commercial
Appeal.
Reports from Oklahoma indicate
that the condition there, as Of
August 10 was only slightly above
so per cent of a normal. compared
with a condition of Is on July 25.
The present condition in Texas
seems to have been very largely
discounted In the government esti-
mate Of July 25; while most cor
respondents are of the opinion that
deterioration was as great or greater
from July % to August 10 than
from June %, the bureau report
was regarded as extreme.
Recent rains in Arkansas will
probably prove beneficial. Deter
iortion has been most severe in
southern and western sections.
East of the Mississippi river,
with the exception of locally in
North Mississippi and West Ten
nessee progress has been sati-
factory. Cotton crops of the Car
oIinas, Georgia and Alabama are
excellent. Mississippi is good TO
excellent, while Tennessee has prob
ably gone back 10 per cent.
The weather has been favorable
east of the river, but has continued
hot and dry west Of it. There is
considerable complaintof shedding
and of bolls opening prematurely.
Insect damage, including boil
weevil depreciation, was negligible.
Cultivation was never better,
for which reason the plant through
out the entire belt was well fortified
to withstand a siege of dry weather.

FOOD ZONES

H. A. Morgan, Federal food adj
ministrator for Tennessee, has adj
dressed letter to the county food
administrators of the state notifying
them that for the purpose of holding
conferences and to aid in the work
of organization, the state has been
divided into nine zones:
We are placed in the Jackson zone
composed of the following counties:
Perry, Decatur, Benton, Hardin,
McNairy, Hardeman, Chester, Madi-
son. Carroll, Henry, Weakley and
Henderson.
Zone conferences will be held at
stated intervals, called by the Federal
Food Administrator of the state. In
addition, it is planned to hold one
or more conferences for the three
grand divisions each year.
District representatives have been
appointed for Tennessee. the one for
jackson and Memphis zones is D. w.
Moss, Dyersburg.
The district agents will aid the
county administrators in work of
organization, and county administra-
tors should not hesitate to ask them
for assistance. ID
