Undated-With the American and
French great counter offensive still
rolling eastward, the next couple of
days will determine the exact char
acter even if it comes to a halt to-
day. 1t seems probable that it will
have accomplished its purpose, the
believing of the pressure against
Rheims, for General LudendOff pro
badly will not continue his offensive
on the south while his right flank and
rear are seriously menaced
A matter of intense interest is the
manner in which the Germans will
meet the new onslaught. There have
been reports relative to the low NOR
ale of the enemy forces but these
must be provided by actual develop
mems before they can ben generally
credited.
II the Germans hold the Allies
after having been flung back with
the rapidity that seemed like dis
organization, The fighting qualities
of the enemy troops must be consid-
cred as good as their commanders
desire. SO far as reports tell of the
situation, the German advance from
Dormans to Rheims has come to a
halt. This is the situation likewise
east Of Rheims.

last night from American headquar-
1ers tolls of the high morale of the

has been given new and a great
stimulus
For two, or three years those who
know something of the profit in tobac-
co farming have been urging that
more farmers get after this special
line. Now that the buyers have Gene

Experts who have gone over Crisp
county several times within the past
two or three years have every time
told farmers here that they can gather
in great profit from their farms by
gowing tobacco. 1t is still very
difficult thing to get farmer even to
experiment in growing it, but the Alb

indicate that more of our farmers are
becoming interested and it is hoped
that there will be an honest effort tC
