river lessia. With siege artillery they
began a bombardment at midnight,
utilizing guns up to sixteen inches.
The hurricane of fire lasted not less
than two hours and our batteries an
swered energetically.
"About 3 o'clock in the morning the
assaulting columns, in close formation,
marched against our positions. By a
concentrated fire, the explosion of
mines and gallant counter-attacks by
our troops the enemy was thrown back
along the whole of the front. The
weakened Germans, who suffered
enormous losses, were hurled back
into the neighboring ravines, where
they apparently began to prepare a
fresh assault.
"Sunday noon the enemy's Are in
creased with terrible intensity, but this
protracted and destructive hurricane
from most powerful guns failed to

GUI CROP HARD
HIT BY WEATHER
Dr. Surface Says That the Damp
ness Will Cause Much Loss
to the Farmers
Rains, cold nights and general un
favorable weather conditions are go
ing to cost the farmers of Pennsylva
nia many dollars in deterioration of
grann according to Dr. H. A. Surface,
the State zoologist who has been re
ceiving reports from demonstrators
who have been traveling through the
eastern part of the State and who are
now investigating in the western coun
ties.
"In many cases the grain started to
sour while in the field. Consider
able wheat has done this and I am in
formed that quite a quantity of rye
suffered from the damp and the gen
erally bad conditions," says Dr. Sur
face. "The oats crops, which we all
thought was going to be such a valu
able one and so much larger than
usual, may be diminished more than
other grains because of the damp. I
have learnedof large fields inwhlch the
oats have been cut, but which is wet
through and through. This will make
it not only difficult to handle, but un
salable In some, sections.
"The most serious feature of the
conditions will be that grains will not
demand good prices except where,
everything was favorable and there
may be a shortage of cattle feed In
some sections, although in others they
will feed the unsalable product.
"Weather conditions have been bad
and the frequent storms have caused
much dage, more than we are aware
of as yet."
