BOCHE'S RETREAT IS
 MARKED BY RUIN

With the British Army in France, Sept. 5 (By The Associated Press.)- The effect of the recent British suc- cesses are hourly becoming more ap- parent
 The enemy is steadily, but surely going back.
 Successive minor victories in Elan ders, the application of sustained pressure in the battle zone south of the Scarpe, the exploitation of the ad- vances north of Peronne and the steady bombardment from the Brit ish cannon are all helping the general movement.
 Marked by Destruction.
 The foes retirement is being mark ed by the usual destruction for fires and explosions are reported from var ous sections, especially the area in front of the Hindenburg line from the , Bapaume- Cambrai line southward, where the torch seems to have been freely used.
 It looks as if the Germans here were going behind the line, with it's great system of concrete dugouts and defenses.
 Don't Intend to Stay.
 They are not in the habit of destroy ing where they mean to stay, and be- sides, the crushing defeat they suf- fered when the Drocourt- -Queant line was smashed makes this ground ex- ceedingly difficult, if not dangerous to hold.
 On the banks of the Somme, south of Peronne, the enemy is manning 1 b: ol. ~kr,, strongly and firing heavily on the crossings and their approaches, ap- parently fearing British attempt to | cross.
 1 A Precarious Position. At the same time the suburbs on 1 the southeastern outskirts of Peronne. where the German machine gunners have also been holding out desper- ately, have not been cleared of the enemy, so that the position of the Germans on the east bank of the Somme is becoming increasingly pre- carious.
 Along the banks of the Canal Du Nord in the region north and south of Inchy- En- -Artois, strong German rein- f0rcements have come up and they are holding some places, especially back of Moeuvres, the western bank with immense numbers of machine guns.
 May Try to Consolidate.
 As yet they have not been attack ed by the British in any force.
 It is not at all unlikely that the Germans will try to consolidate their line in this locality, with the Hinden- burg inc at some point further south.
 Nearer Hindenburg Line.
 In general, the advance in the ter ritory northeast of Peronne is bring ing the British steadily nearer to the Hindenburg line.
 The Germans are keeping the bridges and approaches on the Som- me south of Peronne under heavy ma chine gun and mortar fire. 1 The German retrograde movement in Flanders appears to be partly vol untary, induced by the recent opera tions south of the Scarpe, and partly the result of local attacks in which positions of strategical importance were gained by the British. A large portion of the German line is in the course of being readjusted and the British today were continuing to gain ground almost everywhere.

SoIVeS the Butter
Problem

Troco is not merely a butter
substitute; it is the successor to
butter. It tastes exactly like the
finest creamery butter and is as
digestib1e as butter, with the
same high nutritive value.
Troco solves the butter prob
lem for those who hitherto have
used nothing but the best cream
cry butter. These critical users
say that rarely is butter so
sweet and delicate in flavor.
But don't Just ask for nut

Compare Troco Scfth the
Best Creamery Butter

The test of Troeo is on the
table, in comparison with the
best creamery butter. This IS
where it wins butter lovers.
For cooking it has no equal
either in results or from the
standpoint of economy. Troco
goes farther than butter.
Old laws, made before Troco
was invented, compel US to label
it as an oleonargarine. This Is
extremely misleading.
Troco is a quality product
used in homes where only the
best is tolerated. Here favor,
quality and the assurance OF fas-
tidious manufacturing methods
insure the popularity of Troco.
