PLANT POTATOES
 FOR HOME USE.

It isn't too late the first half of June to plant late potatoes in all sec tions of the United tates, say special ists of the United States Department of Agriculture, who are recommend ing that all available space in gardens be used for this crop to safeguard home supplies and to reduce transpor- tation.
 Their recommendation is made de- spite the fact that potatoes require more space than most garden crops, and should not be planted in small gardens to the exclusion of other veg etables. One bushel of seed potatoes will plant one-tenth of an acre or a plot A by 100 feet and will produce enough potatoes for the use of a family of five during the winter. At present there is surplus of old pota- toes on the market and sufficient seed can be obtained at reasonable prices It is suggested therefore that seed be used more literally than last year and that 12 to 15 bushels of seed be used per acre.

Associated Press Dispatch.

Associated Press Dispatch.
 New York, June 12.-German eff forts to batter down defenses between Mont Didier and Disc river, which was begun Sunday, seemed to check on third day of the struggle. On the western end of the battle line the French, by counter-attacks, regained important ground, while on the center and right lines, repeated efforts of the enemy to exploit earlier successes, met stern resistance, French claiming that the Germans are being held. At the same moment the front between the Aisne and the Marne rivers, to the southeast, again famed up. Striking the allied line west of Sois- sons in the neighborhood of Dom Miers, Cutry and South Amblcny, the Germans have begun what may be serious threat to the security of the allies north of the Disc. A German statement Tuesday night claimed no progress had been made in the battle between Mont Didier and the Olse,, but earlier communique, however, claimed the capture of 18,0O0 prison CTS since Sunday.
 Northwest of Chateau Thierry the American marines have driven the Germans entirely from Belleau Wood, adding three hundred prisoners to their bag. There is no important ac- tivity in other American sectors. In the center on the Macedonian front, the French drove the Bulgarians from several villages. Serbian troops repulsed an enemy attack near Dob ropolje.
 Two Austrian battleships of the largest type were torpedoed Monday of the Dalmatian coast by two Italian torpedo boats, which escaped un- harmed.

their part they must not average
more than two pounds of all kinds

this weight includes the bone.
1T is quite evident that there are
a few who, owing to vocations or
conditions, must be allowed to con-

means that the rest of us Wh1 are
able to do SO must be, sure and eat
