Enormous forces of artillery were
being mObilized. New guns continued
to arrive every day and were installed
without going into action. The trans
portatiOn of munitions and material
was also very brisk. We did not sus-
pect at this time that this was the first
preparation for great offensive.
After four weeks in this vicinity we
were sent to another part Of the front,
once more without being told our des-
tination. We marched away and in the
afternoon we arrived at Dun-sur-
Meuse.
Hardly had we entered the town
when tho German crown prince, accom-
panied oy several officers and a large
pack of hunting dogs rode by.
"Good morning, pioneers !" he called
out to us.
Then he inspected our unit closely.
He spoke to our captain, after which
one of the officers of his staff took us
to Red Cross establishment where
we were banqueted and given wine.
The headquarters of the Hohenzol-
Meuse. The ladies of the Red Cross
treated us cordially. We asked them
If all passing troops were as well treat
ed as we had been.
''Oh, yes" young woman answered,
"but only few come here. The crown
prince, however, has an especial at
tachment for the pioneers"
We were quartered over night. Sol
diers told us that Dun-sur-Meuse was
the headquarters of the Fifth army.
There were gay times in the town, with
an open-air concert every day. The Off
GERS often received women visitors
from Germany.
After hard march we arrived at
the front positions. In veritable
labyrinth of trenches, filed with water,
we had the utmost difficulty finding
our way about. Finally we arrived at
the very front. The French were only
ten meters away and before we had
been there two days we took part in a
hand grenade encounter.
Some distance back we established a
pioneer depot. Twenty-Five of our men
did nothing but assemble hand gre
nades. We were soon settled and ready
for an emergency.
In camp we were divided among
various troops. They showed us how
the warfare waged at this front re-
quired every imaginable kind of fight
ing. There was mining, sapping, hand
grenade throwing mine throwing and
light patrol battles. This went on day
after day and night after night, with
4S hours in the trench and 12-hour
rest. The shortage Of men made a
less strenuous schedule impossible.

SHIPPING SWINE IN SUMMER
Hot Weather Precautions to Prevent
Loss Of Important Part Of Ma
tion's Meat Supply.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Every hog that is killed In transit
due to overcrOwding or mishandling
means loss, at present prices, of prob
ably more than $50 to the shipper as
well as waste of meat needed by the
nation. Mortality in transit or after
arrival at the central market can be
lessened greatly In hot weather by the
practice of the following simple pre-
cautions on the part of shippers and
dealers:
1. When hogs are very hot, during
or after drive, never pour cold water
over their backs.
2. Before loading, clean out each car
and bed 1t with sand which, during dry,
hot weather should be wetted down
thoroughly. Hogs in transit during the
night only are not so likely to be lost
from overheating as are the animals
shipped In the daytime. With day ship
ments in hot weather 1t Is highly ad-
visable to suspend burlap sacks Of ice

should have liberal allowance of

ing them off is good method of i'm.

Kinds of crops: (a) For the cotton
belt Bermuda, bur clover, white clover
and Lespedeza make good permanent
pastures. These should be supple
mented by small grains and rape for
winter, crimson clover and vetch for
spring, cowpeas and sorghum for sum-
mer, corn with soy beans, velvet beans
or peanuts for fall. (b) For the CEN
trail and middle Atlantic states, includ-
ing the bluegrass region, blue grass
should be used largely for permanent
pasture. 1t should be supplemented
by rye for winter, rape for spring, red
clover for spring and summer, corn
with soy beans and rape for fall. (c)
For the Northern and Eastern states
blue grass or redtop provides perma-
nent pasture. Supplementary grazing
should be furnished by oats anu peas
for spring, rape and red clover for
summer. and early field corn for fall.
(d) for the West grazing is furnished
by alfalfa and corn. Corn should be
''hogged down."

CHAPTER XVI.

The next day we received orders to
march to an unknown destination. We
soon arrived at the depot of ApremOnt
where we were obliged to wait. The
depot had been destroyed. The next
station was Chatel. Both of these
places are about five kilometers behind
the front.
The prisoners were assembled In
Apremont. Several Of them had come
from that town. Their families were
still In their homes ana many prisoners

CHAPTER XIV.

Each day in the Argonne levied its
toll of victims. sometimes many, some
times only few. 1t Is only natural
that the morale of the soldiers should
not be at its best under these circum-
stances. With the same indifference
that the men had once gone to their
work to support their wives and chill
drcn they now went into action. This
business of killing had become daily
routine. Whenever we discussed our
situation, the crown prince and the
commander of the Sixteenth army
corps, Lieutenant General Won Mudra,
Jared worst.
The troops In the Argonne forest be-
longed to the Sixteenth corps. the Thir-
ty-third and Thirty-fourth divisions.
Neither the crown prince nor Won Mud
ra had ever been seen In the trenches.
One Of the members on the crown
princes staff was the old field mar
mander of the Sixteenth corps, who,
before the war. was considered hu-
man fiend. These three called Clover
Leaf by the soldiers, were far more de-
spised by most of the men than were
the French cannon, which sought our
miserable lives.
The Hohenzollern heir did not find
life hard at his headquarters several
kiIometers behind the battle front. 1t
was easy for him to make himself
popular with his order to go ahead at
the cost of thousands of lives. He was
very well liked among the high officers,
with whom he sat behind stove al
though the progress was not fast
enough for them.
He honored Won Mudra with the or
