A Miracle of Toll
A miracle in many ways, the
Imperial Valley is first of all a
miracle of toll. The ancient dcs-
ert was not transformed BY those
who spend their lives in talk and
splitting thc hairs of theories; the
red waters of the wild and Iawless
river were not tanned by parlor SO
cialists and professional sy udical-
lists.

done by the toll Of brain and Drawn.
They who had the vision did not stop
with just the song thst was singing
in their hearts. Instead, they wrought

The tasks that thev saw before them,

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

The Cumberland Valley Tractor
show to be held at the Mckee farm
near Hagerstown on the 10th and 18th
of April viii be OF special interest to
the many tractor owners of this county
and to those who contemplate buying
tractor soon.
During the week Of October 9TH and
November LIST, joint meetings Of the
Maryland Agricultural Society and
the Farmers National Congress will
be held at Hagerstown. There will be
wool exhibition for the purpose OF
demonstrating the quality OF Maryland
aeeees. VIII not the sheep growers OF
this County reserve one fleece for ex-
hibit at this time and put Charles
County on the map Of Sheep Growing
Maryland.
DR.. 5. S. Buckley OF the Extension
Service has an excellent article in
April lth number Of the Maryland
Farmer on Pork and Pastime He
says for Charles County that the best
pasture for hogs is rye followed by
COW Peas and Alfalfa is coming to be
an excellent substitute for therye crop.
How many know that hogs viii eat
Alfalfa hay the same as horses and
pay big profits? Then again do you
know that the cheapest way to fatten
your pork after growing it on grass
and little grain is to have field Of
soy beans and let them harvest the
beans for you. Topping OFF with
week OF corn win make good solid
pork
There is money in pork at l99 cents
per pound on the hoof.
This is the month for top-dressing
your pasture and hay fields. Sulphate
Of Ammonia with Acid Phosphate have
proven to produce tho best results at
the Experiment Station. Wecan make
our hay last US the whole year if we
raise little more on the same land
than We now NOV.
Our pastures will prove to be so
much more profitable if growing grass
instead Of weeds.
The Community Club at Waldorf, |
will hold meeting on the evening Of
April 18th. ANY one interested in the
welfare Of the community will lind the
discussions helpful,

3.276 Lost in Wounded Alone
The division surgeon that evening
reported the losses in wounded alone
from July "a to s p. IN. July 80. as

Though on August 1, parts of the
16Sth were forced back slightly by
German counter attacks, on the
other hand the 265th took the Bois
Brule, while the position on the left
were slightly improved toward the
Forest de Nesles The activities of
the Germans increased in many par
ticulars and their airplanes were ex-
tremely annoying, particularly one
pursuit patrol, believed to belong to
the Circus formerly commanded by
the famous ace. Captain Baron
Richthofen, the favorite .maneuver OF

front line

and long range artillery opposition
was encountered after five days in
the fox holes on diet of gold fish and
corned willie. the men were In a mood
to advance rapidly through the Foret
de Nesles where, although the noise of
Ammunition dumps being exploded by
the enemy was frequently to be heard
from the front, nearly $4,000 shells of
various calibers were captured intact.
The front line lay that night north
of Les Bons Hommes Farm, nearly
five kilometsrs beyond its starting
point of the morning and during the
the Srn, while continuing the pursuit
toward the Nelse without half, the
troops of the 4Snd Division by those
of the 4th was gradually accomplished

lieved in the vicinity of Cherry Char

The division then drew back for n
brief rest having been in practically
continuous offensive battle for nine
days. during which period it advanced
its front line approximately 10 kilo-
meters from La Croix Rouge Farm to
Mont st. Martin.

Entirely regardless of the forces
against them, the Rainbows kept on
pushing. At 8 a. m. of the 30th, the
168th attacked out of the ravine OF
Sergy across the uplands toward Mes

started his Alabamians through the
wheat fields of the plateau toward the
Chateau de Nesles, closely supported
by the 101st Field Artillery of the
26th Division and particularly by the
sniping guns of Battery A.
With the latter destroying the Ger
man machine gun nests in front as
fast as they were discovered, the 167th
was able by noon to cross the plateau
and esta blish itself on the hillside 500
meters south of the chateau. But the

spirits as end Lieut.. Oliver Ames, Jr..

of heroism.
Their exposed position was protect
