sow LESS WHEAT THIS
FALL THAN LAST YEAR

More wheat should be sewn this fall
than was the average in prewar years
but not so much should be sown as
was sown last year. This is the out
standing fall-farming recommenda-
tion of the United States Department
of Agriculture, which is watching the
changes of world supply and demand
while European countries are getting
back to normal in food porduction.
and thus affecting the market for
American products. The department.
suggestions are based on the obser-
vations of specialists who were sent
abroad to report on foreign conditions
and probable needs, and on the most
extensive reports it has been possible
to obtain from other sources in this
country and other countries.
AS to winter wheat the department
suggests that $4,000, 900 acres be sown
this fall to this crop, adm that 10000
600 acres be sown in 1920 to spring
wheat. making a probable aggregated
production of 1920 of 100000, 900
bushels, of which 200, ,00O.0 900 bushels
would be available for export after
home needs are met. This production
would approximately equal the aver
age yield of wheat in the United
states fer the five years 1915 to 1919,
inclusive. The five-year average is

KEEPING HUNTING DOG
IN TRIM IS REAL ART

| NEW YORK. Oct. 1S.-Every ex-
perienced hunter knows what good
dog is. 1t isn't given to everyone,
however, to know how to keep a dog
in condition and get the best out of
him. The fall hunting season is in full
swing and the following tips may be
of aid in adding not only to the COM
fort of the dog but the success of the
hunter:
Perhaps your dog has not been
hunted before the season. It may be
that he is just off the chain and not
in field trail condition. His muscles
are flabby, his flesh is soft and long
continued work will not tire him for
the day but will incapaciate him for
the next day.
A short preparatory run where
there is no game will often tone down
dog and fit him for work.
1t the hunter is away from home
on an expedition the first care should
be to see that the dog has proper
quarters for the night. His care
should not be delegated to botel SER
wants but the master should by per-
sona1 inspection assure himself of the
comfort and proper feeding of his dog.
For hunting, dog should be fed
very sparingly in the morning Give
him bite or two of your lunch at
noon and let the full lmeal be given
at night after the days work is finish
ed. A dog will not hunt well on a
full stomach nor will his food digest
well while he is working in the field.
If you have a brace of dogs work
them alternately. Let one do the
hunting while the other is resting at
heel. Do not permit dog to lie in
water for any length of time while
afield. An occasional plunge will do
no harm, however.
On returning at night examine your
dog carefully. A slight hand rubbing
will disclose thorns or briars. They
cannot be removed too quickly if |
found
Special attention should be given to |
the feet. If they are inflamed or ten
der. they should be bathed in beef |
brine which can be obtained from any
butcher. If the skin is worn or the
loot wounded. vaseline should be ap4
olied. If very badly off, the dog
hould be laid up" until he reaches
condition again.

ARCHANGEL, April 2s. (Corres- pondence of the Associated Press)- It was largely due to the bluff" of a young Russian naval officer in com nnand of one of the little Allied steamers on the Dvina River that the original Allied expedition up that river from Archangel- was not wiped out by the Bolsheviki in the early phases of the Northern Russia cam- paign.
 The Dvina expedition, 133 strong, went poking its way nonchalantly up the broad river aboard two or three funny looking river steamers on which field pieces and machine guns had been mounted. The Bolsheviki had taken the best boats, Mississippi type of paddlewheelers, with them in their flight.
 The famous 133 reached Berenski, nearly 200 miles south of Archangel. at the junction of the Vaga river with the Dvina, without firing a shot. One night, all of a sudden. three or four Bolsheviki side-wheelers mounting big guns came around a bend in the river and started trou- ble. When we fired our cannon, they fell through the thin decks into the staterooms of our steamers

Then our river expedition got the glad news that a British monitor. senta all the way from the Belgian coast. was on the way to help them. The monitor crawled along the sandbars and got to Berenski.

WEST END.

The Pest" Mabel Normand's new est Goidwyn Picture, which comes to the West End Theatre today is de- scribed as a cyclone of wholesome fun. with a little catch in the throat now and then. There are sufficient clements of comedy in the piece to make it nothing short of a tornado of laughter and Mabel Normand's ini- mitable sense of the ridiculous can be depended on to get the utmost out of any incident in which she is in- volved.
 One of the first amusing moments in The Pest is furnished by the goat. He is the same animal which devoured the apron Miss Normand wears as Fuckers. the farmouse drudge, at a time when the entire company was scurrying wildly to find the necessary article. In the play proper he chases Fuckers around the yard. forcing her to seek refuge up a flight of stairs while he stands below g1aring at her menacingly.
