GERMANS AMBUSH AMERICANS
rive OF Pcrshing's Men Killed by the
Enemy.

With the American Army in
'"'ice' rep. (By the Associated
lress) Five American soldiers are
pelieved to to have been killed four
are missing and one was wonndod
wien an American patrol was am
"ushed IN No Mans Land last night
oy superior force of Germans.
Inc spot where the encounter oc
CURED is an isolated one and ronortc
concerning the casualties inflicted nv
both sides are meagre Only ono
American is known to have ESCAPED
the trap of the Germans. which was
iaid i'm front of our wires. The ono
survivor, who crawled back 70 the
American lines, with n bullet in his
chest, is unable to talk.
Our artillery immediately laid =
barage around the ambushing Ger
mans and some are believed to have
been accounted for. The infantry ac
counted for others as it is certain the
attacked patrol fought to a finish ac-
cording to info o.'mation tricllling in
from the. front line. Our patrolline
soldiers were walking in front of our
wire entanglements when a big enc
my patrol that had been divided into
parties which took up concealed posi-.
tons opened fire at close range. The
night was clear and the forms of the
Americans made the best possible tar.
gets for the hidden Germans. There
is no dOubht but that the Americans
battled gallantly until completely
overpowered. The artillery duel in
our sector continued today. Scores OF
alrplanes were out observing and
making photographs. The men in the
line were thrilled by q number of all
duels high in the sky over theii
heads.

Beans are Abundant.

The United States Food Admins
tration is urging wholesale and re
tail grocers to push the sale of color.
ed beans, both dried and canned. The
Food Administration declares that in
FOOD value the colored bean is equal, if
not superior to the white bean.
There are about 5000 carloads of
these colOred beans in the United.
States today. I'm response to a re-
quest for patriotic production the
farmers of the West produced the
largest crop of colored beans the
country has ever known. They can be
put on the market at fair profit at
n price which will average 80 or 40
per cent. lower than those for white
beans.
