Whittlesey's men crawled through
the underbrusn, found the prisoner
and guided him back to his COM
radee. The note was taken to Col.
Whittlesey. In effect, it is said
that the battalion. which had been
without food for four days. was en-
tirely surrounded and could not
hope to escape: and urged that. In
mercy to the wounded and to those
still living, further resistance
should be abandoned.

In order to make any reply, the

boy would have to carry 1t, bec0m-
ing q prisoner. or it would have to
be- shouted, q dangerous proceeding
because it would help indicate the
position Of the battalion So the
boys simply dug themselves in and
Lung on.
In two days, more than 1000 cas-
ualties resulted from the attempts
to rescue the battalion, Burrows
says. The troops had to make all
their dAshes by night. and the only
route by which they could approach
the advance position was up
winding ravine in which the Ger
mans had built narrow guase
track. Tho enemy kept this ravine
under constant fire, and the casual
ties among the relief squads were
heavy.
When the battalion finally was
rescued, Burrows and Blair. who
had moved up their supplies, had
hot drinks and cigarettes for the
400 survivors as they were brought
back into the lines and helped give
flrst aid to the wounded and get
them back to the dressing station.

TOM BL0DGETT SEES
SOME GOOD IN
RECENT RAINS

In all my born days it seems to me
that we have had more rain lately
than ever saw; just when we
thought we did not need it.
You would wake up in the night
and hear it pouring; it would clear
off in time for breakfast, and by the
time the old hen and chickens got
a good start in the alfalfa patch
here would come another shower.
The clouds would take the hint and
dry up for spell during the noon
hour, and the cotton choppers would
wade out in the mud to swat the
grass and about the time they got
their files on the hoes, here would
come crack of thunder, and drive
them out of the field
The weeds grin like coolies sit
ting on the back of buck private
standing at attention, and wrap the
cotton up like sick kitten in a
blanket,
Nothing is ever so bad, but that it
might be worse, and have scratched
my head to find out how the rains
could have done more damage than
they did, and sure enough they did a
lot of good after all.
First they put a crimp in the necks
of the Wall street bears and made
them think we would not raise any
cotton, and the bulls began tighten
ing up their galluses, and spot cotton
went up so that lot Of folks got out
from under load that was getting
pretty heavy, and heaved sigh of re-
lief. That's rain score No. |.
Then there is going to be lot of
skips in the cotton, and corn, and it
is too late to replant any cotton, and
nearly too late to replant corn, unless
your plant the whole field over.
Now comes along county demon
strators Thomas and Lambert and
order car of peanuts to sell to the
farmers at SPIT IL at the Planters
Oil Mill, dragging the market price
down from above $4.OO per bushel
The farmers can overcome the loss
in skipped places in their other crops
by planting peanuts and turn the
stock in the field after cotton is pick
ed, and the hogs and cattle will fat
ten on the peanuts, and make up for
the loss in cotton
God Almighty must believe in cot
ton all right, but He evidently is try
