the water boils commence dipping 1t
away sov'!y cut Of E and at the same
time d. Jucs into compartment A.
The cours oi the juice is this-it is
dipped into A, flows around partition
y into compartment B, around par
tition ! inCo {, and SO on in zig7zag
path to 4, where it is finally dipped
out as syrap. AS above stated this
should require about 20 minutes, and
for every gallon dipped out of E, 10
gallons Will have to be put into A.
This will produce 8 gallons of syrup
in each hours time. Keep hot fire.
A scum will rise in various compart-
ments. Skim this off clean without
fail, otherwise sediment will form
in the syrup which will make it look
dark and dirty.
Labor can be saved by placing a
bucket with spigot in its bottom
over A and regulate the flow by
means of the spigot also place a
spigot in the lower part of compart-
ment E and regulate it to allow a
slow flow of the finished syrup. This
will relieve the attendant of all duty
except firing, skimming and tending
the buckets at either end.
Keep the fire hot.
"K aen the ecurn off
keep only thin quantity of juice
in the evaporator,
"Thick syrup calls for great evap-
oration, which, in turn, is produced
by hot fire and a slow rate of flow
from E.
"A brick wall may be built around
the fire place if desired, to held in
the heat and aid in quickening the
process"
Parties wishing information regard
ing the various processes involved in
manufacturing sorghum syrup should
write to their senator or representa-
tive in Congress and request copy
of U. S. Farmers Bulletin No. ATT,
Sorghum Syrup Manufacture.
Discussing the milling of sorghum,
a Kansas State Agricultural College
Bulletin says:
Sorghum for syrup should be cut
when the seed is in the late milk or
dough stage. Ripe or overripe sor-
ghum produces juice that is difficult
to clarity, while the flavor of both
overripe and green sorghum is poor.
The best grade Of surup is obtained
when the main stalk only is used, and
the leaves, head ard suckers are re-
moved. Harvesting should be man
aged so that the sorghum will be
milled within two days after it is cut,
since juices are likely to ferment, par
ticularly during warm weather. In
cold weather the stalks may be kept
for some time without injuring their
value as syrup. Where there is dan
ger of frost it is good practice to
cut the crop and store it in shocks or
plies until it can be milled.
In Kansas sorghum yields vary
from 2 to Is tons per acre The aver
age crop is about Z or tons A ton
of sorghum will furnish 700 to 1900
pounds of juice from which s to 80
gallons of syrup may be made.
The average annual production in
recent years is valued at form 49,
100000 to $4,OO0,OOO in Kansas.

Allies at Present Rate ot
Progress Will Have Back
All Ground Gained by
Enemy This Year.

With the French Army in France,
Sept. 6.-At the present rate of prog
ress the entente allies soon will have
driven the Germans from all ground
gained by them this year and the Of
fensive operation may enter a new
phase.
French calvalry, after passing
through Chauny this morning, are in
the region OF Very -Noureuil and are
advancing towards Tergnier, which is
two and a half miles west of La
Fere.
Farther north the Ham-Guiscard
position has been turned and the enc
my is retreating all along the line
with the utmost speed.
South of the Disc General Man
gins troops are pressing in close to
the enemy's line from which he
launched his spring offensive, in the
region of the lower Forest of Coucy.
French troops are within a mile Of
that line at Hill Is and in front of
Fresnes.
Near Chemin Des Danes.
Near Laffaux, General Mangin's
men are within four miles of the Che
min Des Danes and only about 10
miles from the citadel Of Laon.
The forest OF St. Gobain, which
sheltered the first long range gun
that shelled the Paris region and
which was the cornerstone of the
Hindenburg position at the angle
where the line turns to the eastward
along the Chemin Des Danes. is un-
der the fire of French guns over its
whole extent.
Just south of the river Disc the
Germans this morning were still re-
sisting at Sinceny between the river
and the lower forest OF Coucy with
the evident object OF gaining further
time to save their material further
south.
The line follows practically the 1917
front. North of Landricourt the
French are lighting from their old

Mount Vernon, Formerly Ger
man Liner, Limps Safely to
Port After Attack by
U-Boat.

Washington, Sept. 6.--The Ameri-
can army transport Mount Vernon,
formerly the North German Lloyd
liner Kronprinzessin Cecilie, was tor
pedoed by submarine yesterday 200
miles from the coast of France while
homeward bound. She was able to
return to port. The report to the
Navy department made no mention
of casualties 1t was assumed that
no one was injureds
No military units were on board,
but the big liner probably was carry
ing some sick and wounded soldiers
in addition to her crew of probably
900 or 700 navy men, The extent Of
the damage was not given in the de-
partment's advices, but from the fact
that the vessel was able to return to
France at speed OF IA knots officials
concluded she was not badly DAM
aged.
The Mount Vernon is the second of
the great German liners taken over
by this country to be torpedoed. The
President Lincoln was sunk recently
400 miles off the French coast while
homeward bound.
Before the war the Kronprinzessin
Cecille piled between New York and
European ports. When the war be-
gan she was on the high seas, bound
Tor Cherbourg and Plymouth with
$l2,OO0,O00 in gold bullion in addition
to many passengers. Instructions
were sent to her master from Ger
many by radio to return to this coun-
try. The liner Immediately put back,
arriving at Bar Harbor, Ne. She
later was moved to Boston.
Suit was brought against the North
German Lloyd line by banks in New
York for failure of the vessel to de-
liver the gold and the case finally
came before the supreme court, which
decided against the banks. Later the
vessel was seized by customs officials
for the shipping board. which had her
put in seagoing condition. the crew
having damaged the engines. The
navy took over the ship and she was
converted into transport.
The Mount Vernon is OF l9,503
gross tons and before conversion had
passenger carrying capacity of
about 1000. Her speed is 23I2 knots
an hour
