One Mile and Quarter and Take
4,000 Prisoners.
Paris, Aug. 22. A smashing French
victory on the Verdun front Is record
ed In the oftlclal report issued on Mon
day by tho wnr ofllce. The French
have captured tho enemy defenses on
both sides of the Mouse over a front
of more than eleven miles, penetrating
the German lines at divers points to
a depth of a mile and n quarter. More
than 4,000 unwounded German prison

Tho Temps says that In ono hour
nnd twenty minutes after the French
Infantry ndvnnced to tbo nttuck at
Verdun tho objective had been at

Verdun region ended at 4:40 o'clock
In tho morning. Our troops assault
ed between Avocourt wood and Bezon
vaux. By six o'clock our first objec
tive had been attained and German
prisoners wero going to tho rcur. No
adjectives can give an Idea of the In
fernal action of the artillery, which
lasted three days. Hill S04, Dead
Man's hill and Talourldgo wero
plowed up completely by our fire. Tho
enemy was obliged to abandon his first
line, but our attacking columns with
undiminished spirit passed from trench
to trench, reducing all living combat
ants to submission. Our aviators sig
nalled our advance. It was tragic and
overwhelming."

AMERICAN8 BELIEVED ABOARD
U-BOAT DESTROYED BY
FRENCH WARSHIP.
TANKER FOUGHT TO THE LAST
rvivors of the Campana Reach Port
on Warship and Tell of Des
perate Fight With German
Submarine.
An Atlantic Port, Aug. 24. Five
U. S. navy gunners as well as the Im
prisoned captain of the Standard Oil
tanker Campana may have died In the
submarine U-2, which sank the vessel,
according to Third Olllcer J. H. Bruce,
who, wllh 40 members of the ship's
crew and eight of the gun crew, ar
rived here on a French HteiiiiHhlp.
It had been feared that the live navai
gunners, captured when the Campana
wns sunk, would be treated by the uer
mans as pirates (as threatened) and
executed with short shrift.
However, according to tho story
brought by the survivors, a French (
war vessel sent to the bottom a Ger
man diver, which may have been the
one that sank the Campana, In n brief
time after It had put an end to the .
Campana and at about the same spot,'
without taklnsr anyone off.
The Campana, It seems, fought off
the U-boat until Its ammunition was
exhausted. Ono hundred and eighty
shots were fired by the tanker, against
400 by the diver, two of which bit.
The battle began at 5 a. in. and was
waged for four hours at a range of
between 7,300 and 7,500 yards.
After the Campana hoisted the in
ternational signal of surrender. Its last
shell gone, the submarine continued to
fire, Mr. Bruce said, and all bands took
to the boats.
The U-boat commander first np
proached the boat commauded by Mr.
Bruce, which had aboard the Cam
pana's 13 naval gunners, and prdered
It alongside. He then went to the life
boat occupied by Capt. Albert Oliver
of the Campana, and took him prisoner
with live of the gunners.
Bruce and his men were rescued bj
a French warship.
The warship took them aboard and
landed them In France. Mr. Bruce
said ho wns told by an officer of the
war vessel that ho had heard n wire
less message from another French
cruiser, saying that It had sunk a Ger
man submarine In tho vicinity of the
place where the Campana had been
sunk.

Commission Anxious to Aid Farmers
In Getting Good Seed.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Members of tho Nebraska legislature
nro being invited to send in to tho
stato food commisiBon samples of
wheat, oats, alfalfa and other seed to
bo tested in.tho stato's seed labora
tory, without charge, under tbo now
law. Tho object in view is to aid
farmers in increasing tho production
of foodstuffs noccssary for the conduct
of tho wnr.
Tho circular which Food Commis
sioner Murschcl is sending out reads
as follows:
"Wo aro attempting to help tho
farmers by testing their Beed for them
and nt prosent nro trying to got data
regarding different seed crop condi
tions. ,
"Wo wish to find whnt the germina
tion of winter wheat averages this
year, and how much variation there is
in tho germinntlon pi this grain. Oats,
wo expect to vary moro widely and
therefore should bo given more atten
tion in order to insure good yields,
and would like to have you collect and
Bend such samples to us if you can find
it convenient. An ordinary cupful will
bo sufficient. Wo will return reports
on" tests either to you or direct to tho
farmer as you direct.
"Tho now seed law, making free seed
tostlng possible, makes it convenient
for tho food, drug, dairy and oil com
mission to aid the farmer directly nnd
wo bellovo that working with the stato
representatives of tho various districts
will bo very effective in producing
good crop stands and the elimination
of noxious weeds, and we feel that
with tho present economic conditions,
this is ono of prime Importance.
"Of tho hundreds of samples of al
falfa tested in the laboratory during
tho past few months, tho germination
of at least 75per cent of the alfalfa
Beed has been found to bo far below
standard, many unviable seeds being
present. About 30 per cent of tho
samples germinated below CO per cent,
making a situation which, It seems to
us should not be disregarded, con
sidering tho prlco of the seed, tho
difficulty In seeding and the length of
tlmo tho farmer expects this crop to
occupy tho ground.
"Sixty per cent of tho cane samples
germinated hero were below standard,
which is only G5 per cent.
"Wo will greatly appreciate any co
operation which you mny give ub, and
ask you to address bundles of seed to
the seed laboratory, state house, Lin
soln." Expert Advice on Defective Children.
The state fair managers will again
this year havo a department where
expert advico may bo obtained for
frail, deformed and defective children.
An appeal has been sent out to arouse
more interest in this department. But
few parents called at the headquar
ters last year, it was stated, on ac
count of a lack of advertising for the
department. Tho liBt of aliments or
deformities which it is suggested that
the specialists can give advice upon
are hare-lip, cleft palate, club foot,
dislocated hip, curved spine, paralysis,
rickets, tuberculosis, poor nutrition,
and mental backwardness. It is sug
gested that a conference with tbo
specialist at tho fair may lead to a
cure of tho child, or he may direct
the parents to one of tho state institu
tions where the child can be support
ed, educated, and treated in tho best
way by the state. Application blanks
may be secured from Mr. Danielson,
secretary of tho state board of agri
culture, at tho state capitol. Examina
tions for these applicants will be held
Friday afternoon, September 7, and
will bo private. Entries for children
needing help will close September 1.
Entries for the "Better Babies Con
test" will close August 20.
State Superintendent Clcramons left
Sunday for Washington, D. C, to at
tend a conference of nntlonal and
state officials on n systematic plan for
developing vocational education in the
public schools. Tho national govern
ment has appropriated money for this
purposo conditional on each stato pro
viding an equal amount to tho sum
nlloted it from foderal funds. Tho No
braska legislature appropriated ?18,
000 to match tho federal allowance for
tho first year.
Tho federal farm help agency, which
operates at Lincoln in conjunction
with tho stato bureau of labor, has
more applications for jobs at tho pres
ent tlmo than there aro places to All.
Tho demand for farm laborers soms to
havo ceased almost entirely. It is ex
pected that when corn husking comes
'along there will bo another big rush
of mon. Meanwhile, tbero are a num
ber of young people who want Jobs,
among them being several married
couples, who would like to live in
tenant housos and do farm work.
When tbo legislature Inst winter
appropriated $1,500 to reimburse Daw
son county for an overpayment of
taxes made to the state some years
ago, it set a precodent which is likely
to cause more or less trouble in futuro.
Lincoln county has now presented a
claim to the stato auditor for $1,300
tfhlch is alloged to have been remitted
io the stato by Its county treasurer
for tho year 1011, over and above the
Bum that was actually due. Other
counties aro oxpoctod to follow suit,
sb it can probably be shown in many
cases that there have been overpayments
TO AID TENANT FARMER8
Defense Council Will Help Them to
Secure Seed for Planting.
In connection with its campaign to
secure tho planting of a large winter
Wheat acreage in Nebraska, tho stato
council of defense is taking steps to
ascertain whether Individual farmers
in tho section recently devastated by
hall aro in shape financially to pay
for high priced seed and, If not. to ob
tain for them the necessary credit that
will permit them to buy it and put in
tho crop this fall.
Letters havo been sent to the chair
men of county defense councils in
Merrick, Polk, Fillmore, York, Hamil
ton, Clay and one or two other coun
ties through which the "hailed- out"
strip runs, asking thorn to havo local
surveys made for tho purposo of find
ing out if thoro aro any farmers
whoso crops have been destroyed who
havo not tho money to purchase seed
wheat and aro unablo to borrow it.
Tho purpose in view is chiefly to
help tenant farmers who havo seen the
fruits of their Bummer's work Bwopt
away In a single hour, and who do not
own property which they could mort
gage in order to buy seed wheat on
top of their other necessities Tho
devastated corn acreage would natu
rally bo turned into wheat fields if
seed wero obtainable at normal prlcos,
but at $2,60 to $2.85 a bushel a good
many will bo unnble to buy it unless
they are financially assisted.

Urges Practice at Fire Drill.
Stato Fire Commissioner W. S.
Ridgell has notified school boards
that the 1917 legislature placpd tho
fire escape law under tho jurisdiction
of the fire commission. This law re
quires fire escapes to bo placed on all
school houses of two stories or over,
also requires them to be stairway flro
escapes and to bo approved by tho fire
commission. His notico says: "In
case you have no fire escapa on your
school building or buildings, you will
please make arrangements at once
to comply with this law, as we shall
insist that fire escapes be put on all
school buildings In the state of Ne
braska. Please let us know when
you have compiled with this law. The
legislature of 1911 passed a law re
quiring all schools to toach fire pre
vention, at leant thirty minutes a
month. Your county superintendent
has been supplied with fire prevention
text books and you will please see to
it that all teachers comply with this
important law. A fire drill should be
practiced at least once a month."

in answer to tho chief's inquiry, says
ho believes the liquor can bo shipped,
to the war department if that dopart

general says the shipment would be an
interstate shipment and would come
under the federal law and not tho stato
law which prohibits shipments of in

Cottage choeBe is one of tho best
meat substitutes known, according to
home economics specialists at tho
University of Nebraska. It contains
a larger percentage of' protein, or
body-building material, than most
meats, and it supplies this at a much
lower cost. A pound of cottage
cheeso contains about one-fifth of a
pound of protein, nearly all of which
is digestible. Meats usually contain
Iobs protein, and have considerable
waste. A pound of cottage cheeso daily
supplies all the protein required by an
ordinary adult.
