The outer walls of the Axis fort ress of Europe were collapsing in the East and South and its rOof was newly pierced by deluges of Allied bombs on this mid-August week-end but it is on an impending new mobi lization of American, Canadian and British military brain-trusters in Quebec that world attention centers. Under personal direction of Presi dent Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill, top ranking Allied air, sea and ground warfare experts are gathering in Canada to chart new war directives for the global struggle. They are set to take time by the forelock again and map new blows at Axis foes while the enemy still reels from the defeats inflicted {in Russia, in Sicily and on the sea ; fronts. Strategic decisions designed to }op morfths off the duration of the war on all fronts are to be expected. But they will be disclosed only as each new Allied slash in the mount ing cumulative attack develops weeks ■ or months later. There are several essential factors in the war situation that tend to reveal in broad outline matters which the experts are considering. The means to achieve desired stra tegic ends now are available to the Allies a$ never before. Mediterranean victories that have ’made Italy in a matter of weeks an impotent, tottering war paralytic on German hands instead of a helpful ally are yet to be Exploited fully. One of the latest tangible clues as to the effect of the hammering of Italy is yesterday’s Rome announcement that the Italian government had taken steps to declare Rome an open! city without further delay. Moreover, there was bold evidence that the Allies were winning in an- Prime Min- from all causes by upwards of three million tons.” Thin development sup plements reopening of the short Mediterranean route to the Indian Ocean and the middle,east. v That is § matter of supreme con sequence for the war planners gath ering in Canada. It vitally bears on the time element of what they can hope to do by cutting weeks off the period otherwise necessary to organ ize and deliver new and heavier blows to add to Axis misery on any front around the world. And time, working now in Allied favor, is the key to what may hap pen in Europe as another grim winter approaches for Nazi invaders in Rus sia. 1 mt Legion and Auxiliary Collecting Old Records The American Legion post and Auxiliary are sponsoring a campaign to collect old records. They will be sold to manufacturers at ceiling pric- August 19,1943 at lowest factory price. Nei- \ Legion nor the Auxiliary makes any money from the campaign, officials state, and the new records aire sent to men at the fighting fronts. Boy Scouts, representing the Legion post and the Auxiliary will call at ton homes sometime between August 29 and 31 to ask for unused or unwanted records. Residents are asked to search their homes and col lect any record they may have and donate them to the cause. The campaign last year brought a yield of 370,000 new records to the service, and with the hugs? increase in the various branches, more records are needed.

For lespedeza—when the bottom leaves have fallen off to a height of not over 4 inches. It is a great jnistake to wait later than this; its a waste of time, labor, and storage space to harvest lespedeza stems. Seventy per cent of the actual food value in hay is in the leaves and small stems, Mr. Cushman declares. You can easily learn that lesson by watching the cow eat hay. iShe knows what part of the plant is good for her. Analyses show that lespedeza leaves, for example, have 13.1 per cent protein, 58.9 per cent total di gestible nutrients, and 69 per cent minerals, while the corresponding analyses of lespedeza stems showj only 4.4 per cent of protein, 42.4 «per cent of digestible nutrients, and 3.6 per cent of minerals. "Sunburned leaves shatter easily,” Cushman declares. They also lose their green color and then the vita min A potency of the hay crop is I lost Vitamin A is essential for health in a producing herd and for growth in young stock. “Get an early start so that the hay can be placed in the windrow or in shocks or ricks before night. As soon as the hay has wilted (be fore it is dry enough to rgttle) rake into loose windrows for further cur i ing. Lespedeza and alfalfa can ; sometimes be put. up the same day they are cut if Die crop is not too heavy. Lespedeza and alfalfa are both the easiest yet the hardest crops to cure. They are easiest because they dry quickly and can be handled rapidly; they are die hardest because for the same reason, they are so. easy to overcure. If hay must be left overnight, be sure it is in windrows or, better still, in cocks.” CAED OF THANKS I want to thank everyone for the kindness shown me during my ill ness.
