Prepare Counter Offensive.
All day we became more certain
that our guess as to our probable mis-
sion was correct. We heard that the
Foreign legion and the Second Amerf-
can division had come up on our right.
We knew that our division, the For
eign legion, and the Second division,
would not be concentrated at the same
point If 1t did not mean a real often
sive. Soon after the orders for the
attack We're given US, Apparently the
idea was to stake all on one throw.
Marshal Foch had decided on coun-
ter offensive in this part and had del
egated to General Mangin, command
er of the French army, the task Of put
ting it into execution. Mangin desired
to make this offensive, Ia possible, a
complete surprise. All care was used
that no unnecessary movement took
place among our troops in the back
area. We were not to take over the
position from the Fench troops hold
ing the front line, as was generally
customary for the attacking troops
before an action, but rather to march
up on the night Of the offensive and
attack through themt Fortunately,
from the point of view of secrecy, the
night before the attack it rained cats
dogs. The infantry slogged through
the mud up roads cut to pieces by
trucks and over trails ankle deep in
water. The artillery skittered and
strained into place. The tanks clanked
and ratified up, breaking the columns
and tearing up what was left of the
road. 1t was so dark you could hardly
see your hand before your face.
As a part of the element of surprise

MILLION DOLLAR
CROP Of COTTON
IN PEC0S VALLEY
Carlsbad Planters Are Arrang-
ing to Care For Enormous.
Output Of Fleecy Staples
Shortage of Help Feared,

ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS 10 MORNING JOURNAL
Carlsbad, N. NJ, Sept 5.-The
million dollar cotton crop is on ITS
way. Already pickers are on Carls-
bad project fields, examining the frsI
bolls of the fleecy white staple INTO
their crowded cotton sacks. Cotton
Planters are fixing great crates on
their wagons. to haul their loads of
silky treasure to the waiting cotton
gins And gin men are grding up
their loins for the strenuous days
before them, for although the GIN
ming facilities have been doubled for
the monster crop a-coming, even
then they know that day and night
shifts confront them, before the staple
can be safely packed away in heavy
bales of burlaped wealth.
Much less than half of the $4,000
acres of cultivated land under the
Carlsbad project will yield the mil
hen dollars. To be exact $500 acres
of cotton were planted. Eighty per
cent of this is long staple, or Du-
rengo. Durango cotton is slower in
maturing, but it gives heavy pre-
MUM to the planter who sows it in
his fields. Buyers know now that
Carlsbad cotton is the high class
kind. Mill men do not use it for
ducking, or for the hard and out
side crusty skin OF that humble
article of commerce, the old-time
feather bed. No. Cotton from Carls-
bad fields is made into aeropane
wings, and chintzs, and dimities, and
pretty pink blouses. That's the stuff
that Carlsbad cotton is made into.
Fly I'm the Ointment.
But there is a fly in every ONT
ment, and this fly is a rather busy
one There are not enough people
here to pick 5000 bales. From two
hundred and fifty to five hundred
more pickers can safely hnd EN-
ployment. They need not hesitate,
for even now scouts are out along the
border, hunting for the lordly picker.
Pickers here will start at $l,60 per
hundred pounds, and they can make
good money at 1t. The first Corners
will be given the houses, but many
and whole families take up the work.
The county agricultural agent may be
safely appealed to for further infor-
nation on the subject.
There are four gins on the Carlsbad
project The oldest one is at Carls-
bad. 1t is a two stand gin, but
$500 was spent on it last spring,
to modernize it in every particular.
/; is managed by II. +. Christian, and
Tim Murray is the technical man on
the job. Together they make an eff
ficient pair. The gin at Otis Will
christen itself soon, for it is a $4,000
affair, and has yet to bale its first
bale. But it is rapidly finding itself
and Manager Warrick expects to
throw his switches within the nex'
ten days. Every dollar of capital be-
hind this gin was subscribed by local
men. The Carlsbad project has gtne
beyond the stage of needing outside
capital to finance its needed indus
tries.
