height, rising from lowlands on the
south and east. 1t is six miles south
west Of Yprcs and three miles west of

This German success cuts a deep

by the German assault of two weeks

The evident purpose of this attack

of Ypres and force a retirement from

of the Germans is such that only the
sternest defense will avail to check
their threatening advance.
At other points along the battle line

today a decided upward swing. Prices
closed firm, n to 2A cents net higher,
with May. $1.27k and July, s1.53 to

Expected reduction of corn acreage
was ascribed largely to the continued

planting and to shortage of seed corn.
1t was said also that increases OF
