United Nations' Plotting
To Cut Months From
Length of the War.
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.

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-

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 alfalfa—when 1-10 to 1 1-4
bloom, or about as first basal shoots
appear.
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.

Cushman declares. They also lose
their green color and then the vita

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.”

I want to thank everyone for the
