LATE sOWN WHEAT GROW BEST

While wheat seedlings made in
late October and early November kill
led almost 100 per cent after grow
ing up to a height of about two in
clfes, other seedlings made from Nov
ember 81 to 81 made almost a per-
feet stand.
This is the outstanding result of
experiments made this season by the
ton in connection with the time of
seeding winter wheat. In the ex-
pertinent were used three different
varieties of winter wheat, putting
each in at three different dates of
seeding, three depths of seeding and
two methods of seeding. These
seedlings were repeated, at weekly
intervals from the last of October
until December.
"Altho this is the first year that
we have made this test, the results
are so outstanding and SO regular
that they are very satisfactory to say
= the least" says Prof ii. ID. Hughes
Of the farm crops department.
1t is the opinion of the farm crops
men that late seeding will prove very
satisfactory because il makes win
ter killing unlikely and diminishes
very greatly the trouble from the
Hessian fly. Another advantage is
that wheat could be put in after corn
il desired
Experiences of farmers in different
parts of the state have checked with
these results and altho 1t has had
but one years trial at the expert
ment station there is good reason to
believe that late seeding will be de-
sSrable.

URGES OLDER MEN TO APPLY

The government wants older men
to apply for admission to the Field
Artillery officers training school, says
Sergeant Mark A. Kelley, examining
officer for applicants at the Univer-
sity of Iowa. Men of prominence
in the communities in which they
live are especially desired.
An intimate knowledge of mathe-
mates is not required for the Field
Artillery service. This erroneous inn
preston is thought by the govern
ment to have caused hesitation
among older men in applying for ad-
mission to Camp Taylor. 'As mat
ter of fact, the instructions say,
"the mathematical requirements
should not be stumbling block to
any man of officer caliber. 1t is be-
lieved that any man who has sue
cessfully passed the ordinary college
or high school courses in algebra
and plane geometry will soon be
able to require sufficient know
ledge of these subjects.
Special blanks are now made for
the Field Artillery Applicants should
specify the branch of service and
thereby save time for themselves and
the University military department,
says Sergeant Kelly.

DID U-BoAT DESTROY A
 BIG SHIP OFF NOVA SCOTIA?
Commander Told Captain of Fishing
 Schooner That It Did.

Gloucester. Mass, July 25.-The German Uboat that sank the Glou- cester fishing schooner Robert and Richard off the Maine coast last Mon day, had attacked and destroyed a big ship" a few nights before. ac- ccrding to a remark made to Captain Robert Wharton of the fishing schooner by the German officer who boarded the vessel. It was not until today that Captain WhaSton recalled the remark.
 While the U-boat officer was search ing the cabin of the schooner he pick eG up a photograph of Captain Whar- tons young sons, Robert and Rich ard, for whom the boat was nameds Commenting on the sturdy appear ance of the boys, ke added: "We got c big ship few night ago and turned the crew adrift. Among them was boy six years old. 1t was pretty rough that night and I doubt if they got ashore"
 Captain Wharton said that when he first sighted the submarine it was coming from the north. a course which might indicate that the "big ship" was sunk off the Nova Scotia coast. The German did not say whether the ship was a steamer or sailing vessel.
 According to Captain Wharton, the submarine officer was very anxious to have him report on the nice treat- ment" accorded him and his crew. "As they left us seventy miles at sea in an open boat with scanty supplies. call it wanton cruelty" said Captain Wharton tonight He returned to his home here today after relating his ex- perience to naval intelligence officers in Boston

 Behind the lines long transports of allied troops fill the roads leading to the front, the allied planes and ob- serving balloons giving warning against interference by enemy artil- lery or hostile aircraft.
 lntermingled in the line of battle and along the roads are white, black and yellow races in all the units. and the big machine is moving without a knock or lost motion. Now and then the color scheme to the rear of the fight ing lines is broken by column of gray-clad prisoners, whose appearance is always quickly noticed by the troops who are more accustomed to the khaki of the Americans and British and the blue of the French. In scores of cases prisoners have begged their guards to tell them when they are to be shot. The majority of them however, -stolid- ly accept what they believe to be their fate

Of Great Events Impending on Battle
 Fields m France.

Washington, July 25.-With Ameri- can French and British forces press ing the enemy hard on all sides of the Aisne- Marne battle front, the air of Washington was electric tonight with a feeling Of expectancy. as of great events impending. Rumols of decisive victory ran through official circles like wildhre.
 Cntraceable reports were current that the army Of the German crown prince had been trapped and ever that the crown prince himself had been captured
 Official reports gave no foundation on which the feeling of suppressed excitement could be based.
 The latest despatches," said Secre- tary Baker. show continued advances in several places by American, British and French troops. They are not ex- tensive but are important and show that the battle is continuing with great vigor."
 Earlier in the day q press despatch told of rlImors in London that the British west of Rheims had scored a decided success and advanced toward fismes, the German rail base midway between Soissons and Rheims. Later reports confirmed this to the extent of a stride forward by British an6 French forces on a three-mile front just west of Rheims, throwing the snemy back a mile and a half. Proba bly it was this which started wild re- ports of a sweeping victory.

 General Foch has taken leaf out of the book Of German military strategy and ordained the use by the allied armies of the pincer system of offen- siye in the Soissons- Rheims salient.
 Both jaws of the pincer are moving smoothly. with the pivot along the Marne working in unison and the pro cess Of attempting to capture many Of the nearly half million Germans in the big pocket is well on the way to what at present seems like possible success.
 The Germans, however. evidently do not intend tc permit themselves to be- eatrarred without fighting. Having thrown thousands of endorsements into the already congested salient, they have started a counter attack of great violence all along the seml-c1 cular front from the O7lrcq river to tho region immediately southwest of Rheims and their men are said to have orders 10 stem the allied tide of advance at all costs.
 Nevertheless. at last accounts the Americans. French, British and Italian troops. themselves well reinforced to meet the new turn in affairs, were steadily pressing forward at nearly all points on the battle line to Rheims, while east of the cathedral city a Polish contingent-the first of the Poles to enter the oombat--is declared to have carried out successfully an enterprise against the enemy in which more than 200 Germans were made prisoner.
 The western jaw of the pincer con- tinues to move eastward along the Ourcq river, on both sides of the stram. and the Franco-American froous now are virtually knocking at the gates of Fere en Tardenois, the important railway junction and store house for Germany's war supplies Further south to the Marne new ad- vances. in keeping with those in the north. have been attained.

ALLIED SHIP FIRES
 ON U. S. SUBMARINE
American Graf. Taken for Enemy U.
 boat-Outer Hull Was Penetrated.

Washington, July 25 (by A. P.)- Mistaken evidently for the German submersible which has been operating off the North Atlantic coast, an American submarine of the latest type was fired upon in New England waters and slightly damaged last Tuesday by an armed vessel. No one aboard the submarine was injured, and the craft has reached port safely.
 The navy departments announce ment today did not reveal the identity or nationality of the armed vessel, but it was understood that it was an allied transport. Unofficial reports were that the submarine had been running submerged and came 10 the surface near the armed ship. The latter opened fire and had made one hit before the American craft made known it's identity. The shell pene- trated the outer hull of the subma- rlne but did not explode. The only cficial details were contained i'll this statement by the navy department:
 The navy department is informed that q United States submarine was fired on by mistake by an armed merchant vessel on July 23. off the American coast. One shell penetrated the outer hull of the submarine. but did not explode. No material injury was done, only a small section of shel l plating being damaged. No one aboard was injured and the subma- rlne proceeded to her base under he1 own power.'
 1 Had the shell exploded after enter 1 ing the outer hull, it was said, the submarine probably would have beer
 destroyed As it was. the inner hull evidently was not damaged, and the submarine will be ready for service
 again as soon as the damaged outel hull plates can be replaced.
