FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE
July 25-The Germans desper-
ately counter attacked all around
the semi-circle of the Marne sa.
lient today. They met the most
powerful resistance from the
French, the Americans and the
British. There were a few fluc-
tuations in the lines but the al
lies held well, responding in the
most vigorous manner to every
attempt of the enemy to ad-
vance.
Fresh French troops were
thrown in to meet the enemy's
blow. On both wings of the sa-
lient the artillery duel was of the
most violent character, as the
Germans had concentrated most
of their guns on their flank.

German Reserves Rushed.
Try Associated PressI


LONDON. July 25-Nine divisions
Of reserves from the army Of Crown
Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria and a
division from the eastern end Of the
line have been rushed to the aid Of
the German crown prince, between
scissors and Rheims, but, says Reu-
ter's correspondent with the American
troops in France. the Germans may
well hesitate to push more troops into
the already crowded salient, seeing
the difficulty they have had OF feed
ing those already there.
German resistance on the southern
sectors Of the salient had been reduced
to a mere shell, it Is added, and the
enemy doubtless is concentrating ef-
forts on keeping open the northern
outlets Of the salients.
The allied drive toward Oulchy-le-
Chateau not only threatens the enemy
communications with Percent -Tarde-
nois. but is serious threat for the
German troops around Epieds whose
line OF retreat would pass through
Fere.
Unable to Stop Allies.
PARIS, July 25.-More reserves are
being thrown into the battle by the
Germans, according to the latest ad-
vices reaching Paris, but these were
unable to prevent the allies from max
ing appreciable gains Wednesday. The
important point OF Oulchy-Le-C Chateau
slowly but surely Is surrounded. If
the Germans lose it, 1t will be impos-
sible for them to hang on to Fere-en-
Tardenois.
Military observers here are convinc-
ed that General Ludendorff shortly will
launch a counter offensive. His OBJ
jects will be. first, to clear the front
between Scissors and Rheims; sec.
ond, to lessen the demoralizing effect
Of a protracted retreat to the Vesle
and third, to have Germany regain the
initiative.
Consequently 1t is to his interest to
prolong the present battle as long as
possible, even at the expense Of his
treasured reserves, SO as to keep the
French occupied and give him time
to prepare another blow.

The most common test for deter
mining if soil is acid or sour is by
means of blue litmus paper, which
can be obtained at very small cost
from nearly every druggist. A small
quantity of moist soil from the field
is compacted into a ball, the ball
broken. into halves, a strip of litmus
paper laid across one part and the
parts pressed firmly together again.
After an hour or so the ball of soil
should be again broken apart and the
paper removed. If the paper shows a
decided pink color the sample of soil
is acid. II deep-rooted crop such as
alfalfa is to be grown, it will be well
to test samples taken from both the
surface soil and the subsoil.

so rapidly that it will take some
time after peace is declared to re-
stock the wool trade, says Bulletin
935, 1.-THE Sheep-Killing Dog" is
sued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
The United States is experiencing
the greatest shortage of mutton and
wool in the history of the country.
1t is the duty of the American farm
er to increase the supply.
The sheep-killing dog constitutes
one of the greatest menaces to the
success of the sheep industry.
The dog not only kills sheep but
keeps out of the sheep business men
who are otherwise inclined to go in
to it.
The most effective method of
dealing with the sheep-killing dog
is through Efficient legislation.
Notable progress has been made
by several States in enacting good
dog laws, and others are expected
to take similar action.
No law, however well worded it
may be, can be effective unless it
is enforced and has the moral sup
port of the people who are affected
