ENEMIES TO GET NO REST
Weekly Review of War Operations
—Allies Have Men and Material to
Overcome Natural Obetaclei—U. 8.
Troops Take Part I nßattle.
Washington.—Military experts here
do not expect winter to halt the great
allied drive against the Germans In
Flanders. Secretary Baker's weekly
review ol war operations discloses the
belief of the war department that po
tency of material and men will enable
the British and French commanders
to triumph over natural obstacles and
continue forcing the enemy backward
without waiting for spring.
The review touches for the first time
upon the American expeditionary
forces in France, declaring the men,
Jfter three Months Intensive training,
are in efficient, fighting trim and splen
did physical condition.
In dwelling upon the Importance of
the battle of Flanders and Its effect
upon the morale of the Germans, the
war secretary declares it apparent that
the German high command planned
the recent expedition against the Rus
sians in the Riga sector in order to
bolster up morale and meet Impend
ing internal difficulties. By extending
her lines in the east, he adds, Ger
many has merely added to the length
of her line of communications and
increased confidence In the final allied
victory.
The review covering the week end
ing October 20, follows:
''Our men in France, after three
months Intensive training are In splen
did physical condition and efficient
fighting trim. They have readily be
come acclimatized and now feel at
home in the war zone.
"Our troops have met with the most
warm-hearted and enthusiastic recep
tion on the part of the armies and
people of France.
"The health of our men overseas
Is reported as excellent.
"The week Just closed has been one
of relative quiet on all fronts. •
Bad Weather Prevails.
"Bad weather already prevails along
he western front, wintry oondltior.s
fill aoon set In and the terrln will
>ecome Increasingly difficult for at
acklng troops. Nevertheless, the po
.ency of allied material and men, the
accumulation of the technical means
Of combat, and the preparations which
'lave been going on for many months
rtll make It possible for the British
ad French commanders to triumph
/er natural obstacles, and with few
short intervals we may expect the of
fenslv.e to press forward.
, "It is not anticipated that the alliei
Wii
i go Into winter quarters this year. J
•'The full Importance of the battle |
n Flanders Is beginning to be reveal
ed. In order to appreciate the real
significance of this engagement and
the effect It has had on the morale of
the German army and the German peo
ple, we must consider briefly the
German attaoks In the Riga sector, In
cluding the capture of Oesel, Dago,
and other minor Islands of the Fin
nish gulf.
"While no attempt should be made
to belittle the Importance of the po
sitions gained by the enemy, we can
not fall to record that It is apparent
that the Germans undertook this ex
pedition with a view to bolstering up
the morale of the country, more par
ticularly in order to be able to meet
the impending Internal difficulties
which threaten to culminate In a re
newed cabinet crisis in the near fu
ture.
Anything for a Victory.
"The German higher command baa
(■variably picked out a weakened ob
jective, in order to be able to record
a success which should be of political
rather than military value. The asl
ands of the Finnish coast in the hands
of the enemy In no way offset the re
cent allied victories in Flanders.

Naval Battle In Baltic.
Although American torpedoboat de

miles since the United States entered
the war, crossing the ocean, convoy
ing vessels and chasing submarines,
only recently has a German submar
ine succeeded in damaging one of
them.
The attack occurred somewhere
within the war zone, but, though the
destroyer was badly damaged, she was
able to make port. One man, a gun
ner's mate, was killed, being blown
into the sea by the force of the ex
plosion of the torpedo. Five other
men were wounded.
The Germans are entirely In pos

GERMAN AGENTB MAKING
EFFORT TO DEFEAT LOAN
Organized Propaganda In All Parts of
the Country.
Washington.—Pro-German agjpts la
the United States, accordng to Reports
to the treasury department, have di
rected their energies' toward defeating
the Liberty Loan. Their organized
propaganda has borne fruit, from Min
nesota to Texas, It is asserted, in scat
tered localities where weak efforts
have been made not openly, but by in
direct methods to discu.rage subscrip
tions.
Official recognition of the propa
ganda against the loan was voiced to
day by Colonel Herebert M. Lord, rep
resenting the war department, at the
war risk insurance conference at
which the details of the new sailors'
and soldiers' insurance-law are being
explained to offcers and enlisted men
trom the various cantonments.
"There has been an organized ef
fort," said Colonel Lord, who was
chairman of the meeting "to discour
age and defeat the loan."
This effort he added, has been made
by "seeking to n#tarepresent the pa
triotism of the new national army."
An offlcal account of the proceedings
of the conference, which was behind
closed doors, issued by the treasury
department, reads as follows:
"In convincing refutation of the
slander, which was to the effect that
the men of the new natolnal army op
posed the war. Colonel Lord announc
ed that subscriptions from the army (or
the loan already aggregate $26,000,000
and that some of the subscriptions
irsre written in torelgn languages.
"The announcement caused great
enthusiasm among the delegates from
the army and navy, marine corps and
coast guard (attending the conference)
MO of whom swarmed up to the plat
form following the address and sign
ed war Insurance applications, all of
which, except forty, were for the max
imum of $10,000."

CITY SHOULD KNOW ITSELF
One That Has All Necessary Infor
mation at Finger** End Makes
Impression Upon Inquirer.
There are many ways In which a
central organization can be of Hervlee
to a city in Industrial development.
An Industrial commissioner, a man of
vision and Intelligence, with experience
In the problems that confront manu
facturers, can make a survey of a city
with reference to Industrial advantages
and have them ready for every In
quirer.
The prospective likes
to do business with a city tjiat knows
Itself, just as the Individual likes to
trade with the man that knows his
stock. There are so many details that
enter Into industry, so, nmny points of
Information about location, switching
and traffic facilities, raw materials, and
related Industries, that it requires ex
haustive study of the whole field to
make a creditable presentation of the
city's advantages to the inquirer from
the outside. The city that has all these
facts at its fingers' end, and can pre
sent them conviAclngly, Is in better po
sition than the one where only a smat
tering of essential facts are known.
The Importance of a careful survey
of related manufacturing groups
should not bo underestimated. Now
more than ever before the manufac
turer looks for a place where his tin
finished material can be delivered In
any volume on short, notice and at a
minimum of cost Or it may be that
he wants a city which has developed a
line related to his own, so*hat he can
get the benefit of its prestige in that
line. Here, again, we see the import
ance of knowing our city and its In
dustrial possibilities thoroughly, and
that is the function of the Industrial
department of a chamber of commerce.
BETTER CITY AN INVESTMENT
Improvements In Street! and Building*
Pay Returns Just as In Any
Private Business.
Mr. MacFnrland, president of the
American Civic association, takes the
practical business view when he says
that city betterments are nothing less
than paying investments. The streets
belong to the people. Their widening,
or the building of new ones to accom
modate Increasing traffic, is simply a
business expansion that will pay a re
turn as does any private business up
on new capital put Into It.
The same thing Is true of housing.
No city Is rich enough to afTord lions-*
lng conditions that mitigate against
the welfare of any part of Its popula
tion, says the Kansas City 'Star. The
man of small means, as Mr. MacFar
land sflys—the man who must have a
low rental —is the basis of Industrial
prosperity. Low rental dwellings are
necessary, but it does not follow that
low rental dwellings should be lucking
In the sanitary conveniences that are
essential to public health. The owner
of rental dwellings who neglects to
maintain them -in proper condition Is
interfering with the city's business and
prosperity. The city's business de
mands laws regulating housing in con
formity with the best Interests of thut
business, and those laws should be rig
idly enforced.
Small Suburban Lot Best.
The Ideal size for a suburban lot,
If you do not keep a man or a horse.
Is about one-sixth of an acre —say, 00
by ISO feet. This Is all that the owner
can keep in apple-pie order, provided
the place has plenty of vegetables and
flowers. This assumes that the family
Is willing to spend $25 a year for out
side labor, fertilizers, seeds, bulbs,
etc. It also assumes that the wife Is
willing to spend an hour a day in the
garden and Is not ashamed to bo seen
raking, planting and doing everything
except the hard labor.
Those who move from the city to
the country will make a great mistake
If, under such conditions, they attempt
more than this. Gardening Is an ex
pensive business and one might as well
recognize the limitations of the gam*.
Brick Porch improves Old House.
The transformation a broad porch
of nice-looking face brick will bring
about on an old-style frame house Is
wonderful. One sees In various places
(Jong the streets houses on which such
changes have been made, and he is
forced to admit that a great Improve
ment has resulted. While the effect
Is so striking, the cost of sucti an ad
dition Is not so great.
A combination of rough face brick
of reddish-brown coloring, white stone
cap and turned columns painted white,
wllh the steps and porch floor of con
crete, makes an attractive appearance,
A new brtck porch would be a valuable
addition to many wooden houses of the
old type, which now boast of old-style
narrow piazzas.
Value of Vegetable Garden.
A vegetable garden never hurt the
I look* of any lot. It doesn't take a
I dreamer to rove over a 30 by 40 fool
j'pfat of growing lettuce, ripening to-
I mntoeM or *tur>ly potato plant*-—not In

WATERING STOCK IN SUMMER
A* Bprings and Btreams Dry Up It la
highly Essential to Furnish
Abundant Water Supply.
Animals need more water during hot
weather than they do during the win
ter. There Is a greater loss of water
from their bodies in the processes of
heat regulation, digestion, etc., conse
quently they drink more If they have
it. As the natural sources, such as
streams and springs dry up In the sum
mer, it is highly essential that particu
lar attention be given to furnishing a,
plentiful supply of fresh water during
the heated period.
Fresh and cool water supplied in
ample amounts will serve the very use
ful purposes of eliminating many of
the digestive disturbances often com
plained of by feeders. Unless the di
gestlvo agencies are properly func
tioned the best results can by no
means be realized. And since water,
which Is one of the mosj abundant ele
ments we hnve, serves such a useful
purpose It should be given serious con
sideration particularly at this time of
the year, when the dry, hot weather
will soon come. The man who hns a
never-fulling spring In his pasture is
Indeed lucky, but with a good deep
well equipped with a wind pump or
better still a pump run by a gasoline
engine one need have little worry over
the needs of his stock for water, so
long as he sees that their drinking
troughs are always full.
COLT ATTENTION IN SUMMER
Young Animal Bhould. Be Plaeed In
Dark Stall During Day—Encour
age It to Eat Grain.
The colt should be left In a cool,
dark stall during the day If the mare
Is worked, asserts Dr. C. W. McOamp
bell, associate professor of animal hus
bandry In the Kansas state agricul
tural college.
For the first few weeks the mare
should bo brought to the barn In the
middle ofthe forenoon and the middle
of the afternoon and the colt allowed
to suckle. The eolt should be left
with the mare at night. Encourage It
to eat as soon as possible—preferably
crushed oats with bran. If oats are
not nvallable a ration consisting of
four parts of corn, three of bran, and
one of linseed meal by weight may be
substituted.
Let the colt have clover or' alfalfa
hay as soon as he will eat It. See to
It that he has access to clean, pure
water at all times. If the mare and
foal are running In the pasture u creep
should be made where the colt can
have access to grain.

Paris.—Although att first It m be
llevced that the visit of the Zeppelin
fleet to France was an independent
laid and the flrat at«p toward carrying
out the threat tmede in a German wire
less massage which laid it had been
decided to destroy Paris in reprisal (or
French air raids on German towns, it
now is generally believed that these
eight Zeppelins, (our of which were de
stroyd or captured, wre returning from
nglai.d and had lost their bearings
owing to (og and probably had lost
touch with their wireless communica
tions.
The log book of the Zoppelin which
landed Intact shows that she had bees
to England and .prisoners from three
other airships confirm this. One o( the
men captured said It was the lack o(
gasoline that (orced his Zeppelin to
descend. The raid Is widely proclaim,
ed by French observers as being defi
nite proof of the superiority of the
airplanes over the Zeppelin. The day of
Zeppelin for bombardment one expert
said, Is over. The sudden resumption
of the use of the Oerman dirigibles Is
explained by toe theory that the raid
ing Zeppelins belonged to a new type
which lately bad been reported to be
in the course of construction at Lake
Constance.
Of the four Zeppelins lost, two were
destroyed and two were forced to de
scend. The two disabled orlshlps, un
do rattack by aviators and anti-air
defense posts, descended in the Boone
valley and were forced to land In the
neighborhood of Slsteron, In Basses-
AI pes. The crews, after setting Ore
to the airships, attempted to flee, but
were taken prisoners.
London. —Router's correspondent at

It Is believed, adds the correspond

probably refers to the Zeppelin
brought down at Rambervillers, near
the Alsatian border).
