Commandant, the town was bonn
bardcd on the 2Sth, while demon

Of ono OF the neighboring creeks
behind Duala. The Governor had
already retired up the railway and
Colonel Zimmerman followed him
as soon as the bombardment began.
The next morning Lieutenant Moth
nagel, the commandant, surrendered
in accordance with his instructions.
The surrender included tho town
of Bonaberi on the opposite side Of
the estuary, all the supplies and field
guns in store, and 400 Europeans,
making an important diminution of
the enemy forces. Tho most valua-
BILE prize was the shipping which in

belonging to the Woormann line,
among them being some Of tho finest
boats engaged in the West Afr can
service, with total tonnage Of
30,915 tons. These were later on
sold as prizes. Many smaller boats
were captured, including the Gov

safe and convenient base of
operations having been thus secured,
General Dobell proceeded to clear the
vicinity OF tho enemy by advancing
along the two lines of railway, ono
running eastward from Duala and

An allied force was sent along the
eastern line and advanced to Japoma
on the Dibamba creek, a distance of
about 10 miles, by the first week in

yards in length, had been broken in

BADGE SHOWS SONS IN ARMY
Former Congressman Proud of En-
blem Bearing Four Bright Stars,
Indicating His Contribution.

Harry Lee Maynard, former mem
Der of congress from the Norfolk,
Va, district, was greeted by friend,
who inquired the significance of a
neat little badge he was wearing.
The badge was in the form of red
shield with four blue stars.
That's new idea," explained Mr..
Maynard. ga friend gave me that in
New York, and it will probably be-
come popular idea. You see, 1
have four sons in the service. One
is surgeon in the regular army,
now somewhere in France another
is captain in the regular army, in
the coast artillery at Sparta, Wis. !;
another was graduated at the first
Fort Myer training camp and made
a captain, and the fourth is mem
Der of the naval reserves. My fifth
son is at a military school in Vir-
ginia, and l am a member of the
Home Defense league.
"The idea, of the badge is to indi-
cate that l have four sons in the
service. Any parent who has SONS
serving his country has the right to
wear such badge, the blue stars
indicating the number. of SONS who
are in the service"

HAD NOT HEARD OF THE WAR
Colorado Sheep RaneheP Not Aware Of
World Conflict Until Arrested for
Failure to Register.

Private John Allen-or maybe it
was John Sharp Williams-used to
tell story about mountaineer in
the Tennessee Cumberlands who
thought that the Civil war was still
going, 40 years after Appomattox.
A Colorado sheep rancher matches
it, goes it one better, relates the Bos-
ton Transcript. Arrested for fail
ure to register for the draft, he ex-
cused himself by explaining that he
didn't know there was any war. He
had never heard of Liege and Ma
mur, of the Marine or Ypres, of the
Lusitania or the Sussex. Incredible
but for the fact that the man was a
sheep herder. His occupation fur
nishes him with an alibi, if not with
ticket of exemption, for the sheep
herders on the lonely sagebrush des-
erts of the West of all known beings
are the loneliest.
Out with his focks for six months
OF year at time alone under the
stars with his dog and his sheep, re-
lieved at long intervals by another
herder as completely cut off from
civilization as himself, the sheepman
is the antithesis of the city dweller,
getting his news hot from the wire
that leads to the ends of the earth.
Not even the tender on a lightship,
spending his life at sea upon boat
that never changes its anchorage,
is so completely isolated from his fell
lows as the sheep herder.

IMPROBABLE?

Somebody, certainly no friend of
the allies, started not long ago, a
campaign designed to force the al
lied fleets to 60 in and attack the
German bases, says the Scientific
American. In these days of the
mine, the submarine and the heavy
long-range gum. practically the only
result of such an attack would be
frightful loss of allied warships.
The German coast defense system is
probably the most perfect work, ma
val or military, in the whole Ger
man system.

farmers whose crops now
promise a big harvest. On the

recorded, and on the seventh,
1.47 inches. Much of the wheat

revived and will make a-much
larger yield than was at first

Suggestions For Greater
Efficiency Of Motor
Power

day is the production OF the
greatest possible amount of
food, and most important
factor in this is motive power.
To fulfill our obligation in
carrying out the governments
agricultural war program we
must utilize fully and most eff
ficiently the power that is
available in Kansas. To assist
in making the states horse and
machine power render the
greatest possible service. this
brief circular of suggestions
has been prepared by the horse
and machine power committee
of the Kansas Council of De
fense.
The Horse
As the work of a horse is our
main dependence, he is given
first consideration.
1. Treat kindly and give
the best of care.
2. Water frequently. 1t in
creases his endurance and
power.
3. Feed regularly a uniform
ration.
A. Feed about one and one
third pounds of grain and one
pound of hay for each 100
pounds live weight.
5. Feed heavier for severe
work conditions.
8. Allow rest periods oc-
casionally.
2. Watch the horse careful
ly. Dropping ears, unsteadi-
ness of gait, short and quick
breathing, and sudden ceas-
ing of sweat are danger sig
mails demanding prompt atten-
tion.
8. If the horse suffers heat
stroke. remove the harness,
protect him from the sun. ap-
ply cold to the head-either
wafer or ice-wash out his
mouth and nostrils, and sponge
his entire body with cold water.
8. Provide as cool a place as
possible for the work horse at
night.
10. Avoid overspeeding and
fretting.
II. Eliminate lice, worms,
and flies.
IL. Groom the work horse
thoroughly.
13. Clean the collar every
= time it is put on the horse, and
keep its bearing surface hard
and smooth.
IA. If possible, sponge of
the work horse, especially
where collar and other parts
of the harness have left their
marks when he comes in from
work. Sponge out his mouth
nose and eyes. Wash his shoul-
ders every night for a few
weeks with cold salt water.
Reconstruction processes af.
ter the war will add to the pres.
ent demand for horses of quail.
ity of the right type, and the
United States with its excellent
natural advantages will be ex-
pected to furnish the horses
needed. AS only one out OF
every twenty horses of the state
will classify as draft horse
and weigh 1000 pounds OF
more, each Kansas farmer
should breed every mare he
owns showing a predominance
of draft breeding, to a good
sound, pure-bred draft stallion
in 1918. Such a policy will be
profitable as well as patriotic
The Tractor
1. Don't let the tractor be q
Stacker. Give it good care and
proper attention, but show it nc
mercy.
2. Use your neighbor wher
possible. Exchange work.
Use the tractor for heavy
work, releasing horses fol
plowing corn, etc.
a. BE prepared. Have every.
thing ready for continuou:
work.
5. Do your own tractor
work at the earliest practi
cal moment.
6. Remember that expert
ments and experience prove
that early preparation oi
ground for wheat brings high
er yields.
