Two.) good corn crop is to pet moisture into the soil in as large quantities and to lis great depths as possible. To a1 low weeds, alfalfa, rye, or other plants to prow during the spring upon land to be planted to T corn is invite failure of the corn rop, To allow the soil to become dry anough in the spring before plowing lo break up *in big elods is to invite failure of the com crop. If the plow* ir g has been delayed until spring, the lai d should be disked before it has a Vl chance to become too dry to plow. NN Disking is more rapid and should be 01 done before the plowing in order to keep the ground from becoming too ^ dry. Deep plowing should not be ?' done in the surincr. If follow??d Hv ^ .

France, a London?Despite ail the wondrous ar weapons modern rci nee has ented, the cold steel of the buy one-, is asserted itself anew in nu.ch ol le recent bitter fighting as the arm last armenL As ulvpnrlv rpl.??fr<i ( te struggles about Monchy-le-I'reu:. nee Monday have attained an is 1 nsity unequalled by any of the ' ghting in the Somme campaign last ;ar. There was one German position irth of the town and paralleling the rarpe river which resisted four desrrate attacks. It was finally decidi to take this position at the point ' the bayonet, without a shot of any j ind being fired to rob the attack of: s surprise nature. The attack was ade along a three-quarters of a ile front under cover of darkness. The liritish batallior.s were formed i comparatively close order and at J 10 whispered word of command, re?ated along the line, trudged for-! ard into the night.

Two batallions beieving the sincerity of this proposal tailed across to bring in the prisonrs, but were immediately attacked.

HOW TO PREPARE COnAOE CHEESE How to Make Palatable and Nourishing Food From Skim Miik. _ 1 j Cottage cheese, a delicious nnd:< nourishing food, can be made from 1 skim milk which might otherwise go,; to waste, say the dairy specialist of 1 Ow> n * * -i 1 vnv. V'uivu ouavo O. Agriculture. After removing the i L-ream for coffee, the sk m milk that I is not needed for puddings, g.avies. ! etc., can easily be made into cettcg?' jl cheese. If the milk is sweet it should be placed in a pan and allowed to n- i main in a clean, warm place at a ten. p >;.Uirc of about 75 degrees u .til it 1 clabbers. The clabbered milk should i have a clean, srvr flavor. Ordinarily this will t; .o ; bout 48 hours, but when it is desi able to hasten the process a s.nali quantity if cWan-flavor, ed soured i. : U may be mixed with the sweet milk. A .* soon as the milk has thickened to the condstency of thin jelly, it should be ml ii.to pkec> the si'ec of a w; Inut. r ft r which the cuid should be sf'rieb the. -, ugh*; \ with a spoon. l'lace the pan of Urol.cn rv d is a kettle of hot water so as to -i-:se tliCj temperature to 100 degrees F.

AS THEY DO IT OUT IN KANSAS To the Readers of the Herald: Here is a few more words from the Horry hoy in Kansas. The wheat crop is short this year in Kansas. Forty-seven per cent is a total f; ilure and the balance badly damaged, but you see that does not mean that Kansas will not have any harvest this year, for there is plenty of time yet to rase barley, kafircorn. mr.i:<t and some other crops, so Kansas has a good chance fur a crop of lL .. .. ^ . - * ? iruvr cropins yet. .\iso ianners in Kansas are putting, in a good crop of spuds this year which usually makes fine.
