A post mortem examination of the carcasses and innerds revealed no damage whatever, indicating that the gastric juices of the stomach absorbed the burrs. Thus it was proved by these tests that the alfalfa grower who has puncture vine apparently need have no worry about feeding his hay to livestock, and further that the action of the gastric juices precludes any possibility of droppings from these animals carrying the seed of the puncture vine when used as fertilizer.

The first American forces to report for active services were a division of destroyers under Captain Taussig, U. Unit- Nazaire. The first shell fired In the World War from Americans and aimed at the destruction of enemy forces on land, was Battery No. 2 of the Navtl Railroad forces in France at on September 0, 1917.

Some of the larger grain farmers in California might well profit by the procedure followed by most of the middle western farmers. Under this plan, it is suggested that grain growers plan to market half their crops in the form of beef, pork and mutton, the balance to be sold as grain. It is possible to so balance production with most forms of livestock feeding that in times when there is shortage of grain or prices are relatively high, livestock feeding can be cut down to some extent. At other times, such as lias been the case for the past two years, the proportion of grain marketed through livestock could be in- vice-preside- Rear Admiral Sims calls the The first armed forces of the ed States to land in France naval aviators in two divisions, 7 at Bordeaux and June 8 at More seismologist.

They must buy, but where they buy will depend on how much the merchant is willing to do toward getting his share of the business. - Now is the time for merchants to tell the public what they have to sell and what price that they expect to receive. The cheapest and most dependable way for merchants to reach the buying public is through the columns of their local newspaper. |
