Johannes S. Anderson. of Chica-
go, was first sergeant of Company B..
132d Infantry. when the Thirty
third Division captured 'Consenvoye
in the great allied advance of last
October.
The Germans were pouring an in
tense artillery and machine gun
gun fire into the American line be-
tween the Meuse and the Argonne
forest. Company b was right in
the thick of it.
Sergt. Anderson noticed that most
of the machine-gun fire came from
single German marchine-gun nest
just ahead of his company's posi-
tion. It's fire was. SO deadly that
the company could not advance; it
would have meant instant death to
every man in it.
Instantly SergtI Anderson formed
his plan. Leaving his company. he
crept forward alone across No Mans
Land. The ground was fiat and open;
the sergeant's only protection from
the murderous rain of bullets and ca
ploding shells over his head was a
shell hole here and there. which ar
forded him a moments rest
Crawling steadily forward, however,
Anderson worked his way around the
boche machine-gun nest and to the
rear of it. Fate was with him. ana
he never got a scratch.
Reaching a shell-hole just beyond
the German crew. Anderson dropped
into IT and awaited his opportunity.
There were twenty-three men around
the German gun. and they were pump
ing 1t for all they were worth. At
last they had to stop to replenrsn
their ammunition. Anderson's chance
had come. Jumping up with wild
Chicago yell. he fired his rifle into
the midst Of the Huns and rushed for
ward upon them.
The Germans were taken complere-

MANY DESPERAD0ES HUNTED
 DOWN ON PUBLIC DOMAIN

You would hardly think of the Unit ed States department of agriculture as an agency for hunting down des- peradoes, but it is. That the desper- adoes happen to be not men but wild animals does not detract either from the adventure or the value of the work. Now and then a wild animal becomes notorious for it's exploits in killing live stock. The inspectors of the bureau of biological survey make special efforts to hunt down and kill such animals. A mountain lion that was known to have destroyed $1 ,0OO worth of live stock in one month was killed near Dubois, Wyo., a few months ago. That the animal had eluded many private hunters was shown by the number of scars on the body. Another mountain lion taken in April had killed seven colts during the spring. In the same state a pair of wolves that had destroyed S2 800 worth of live stock was killed, the fe- male by a government hunter and the male by a private hunter. A ranch owner near Mertzon, Tex, reported that within three, months he had lost 300 sheep, valued at S3,2C0, as the re- suit of the depredations of six coy otes. Government hunters, in July, captured all six of the beasts.
 But not all of the bad beasts have been disposed of. About 30 very cun- ming wolves still roam the ranges of New Mexico, causing annual losses to live. stock amounting to about S2,U00 each. When the departments cam paign for destruction of pedatory animals began, however, there were between 300 and 400 wolves in the state. The small number remaining though made up of the most cunning and destructive individuals of the packs, is being steadily reduced, in spite of the fact that the stock of wolves in that st..te is constantly re- cruited by stragglers from the moun- tains of northern Chihuahua, Mexico.

Hungry Birds Attack Diving Montana Stock.

BUTTE, MONT.-Swarms of hun gry magpies are attacking half-frozen and famished range cattle in some sections of this part of Montana, ac- cording to telephone messages recelv- ed from farmers by the Butte Miner. The birds swoop down upon the cattle and peck at their brand marks, caus- ing wounds which are made more ser ious by cold weather and lack of food.
 Hundreds of range cattle are said to be dying from starvation since the severe weather set in. One farmer is said to have shot seventeen of his herd that the stock might be saved for beef before they perished.

Barley Ration for Fattening Shoats.

Barley, a handy and economical feed for swine in the Southwest, has been found an excellent ration for fat tening shoats. Twelve parts of ground barley to one of tankage should give good results. The barley is not as good a ration when fed whole, and must be fed in connection with some feed rich in protein.
 Barley is in many respects similar to corn. It contains 9 per cent pro- tein as compared to 7.5 per cent pro- tein in corn. Barley has a nutritive ratio of one part protein to 7.S car bohydrates and fat. As compared to this, corn has one part protein to 10.4 parts carbohydrates and fats. Barley will therefore not require quite so much high priced supplementary feed as corn.

Why Boys Leave the Farm
 Why did you leave the farm, my lad? Why did you roam and quit your dad? Why did you beat it off to town and turn your poor old father down? Thinkers of platform, pull pit, press, are wallowing in deep dis tress; they seek to know the hidden cause, why farmer boys desert their paws.
