The Four Men of the Fourth Year! To-day marks the beginning of the fourth year of the world war and we find these four men leading the legions of America, France, Great Britain and Russia In the battles for the preservation of democracy. It is Interesting to note that when the world war began on August 3, 1914, only Petain and Haig were taking an active part In the war against au tocracy. U. S. MUST BEAR NEW WAR BURDEN Russia's Collapse Means Na tion Must Soon Enter Field London, Aug. 3. "Looking from the broadest aspect at the events of the past fortnight in Russia," said Major General Frederick B. Maurice, chief director of military operations at the War Office, In his weekly talk yesterday to The Associated Press, "It necessarily will mean a prolongation of the war. We cannot longer count on any great material assistance from Russia. This means a greater burden on the other entente allies, and for the United States it means that she must come into the field as soon as possible and with the greatest pos sible force." "The events of the past two weeks on the Russian front have been a great disappointment to us.' con tinued General Maurice. "The Ger mans had made no preparations for a serious offensive. When the Russians attacked, the Germans used only the ordinary strategy of counterattacks with such troops as were immediately available. Certain bodies of Russians collapsed and disaffection spread through a great section of the Rus sian front, with the result that the Russians had -to abandon nearly all the ground won by General Brussiloff last autumn." Definite Object "This week the battle in Flanders was an entire success." continued General Maurice. "General Sir Doug las Halg fixed a definite line of objec tive and, speaking generally, he at tained it successfully. On the south ern third of the front he attacked and gained his objective easily. On the northern third the enemy's re sistance broke down so completely that General Halg felt justified in per mitting his troops to go well beyond the objective. In the central third we fell a little short of the objective owing to stubborn enemy resistance." General Maurice said the British commander's next move was to de termine another objective and then, after the customary process of prepa ration, to proceed similarly to achieve it. "In cases of this kind,' said the Di rector of Military Operations, "the ob jective line depends mainly upon the range of the artillery. The attacks must be patient and methodical. In this way we can gain ground and in flict heavy losses on the enemy with out heavy losses to ourselves. That Is the system we used at Arras and at Messines, and the one now being used in Flanders. "In this week's battle we co-operat ed with the French. There were about six times as many British troops as French soldiers. Of the British, four fifths were purely English and one fifth Anzac (Australians and New Zea landers), Welsh and Scotch. No Irish or Canadian troops participated.

AUGUST 3, m/. SAUERKRAUT OUTLOOK GOOD Welcome Comes From Berks County Cabbage Crop Is Flourishing Reading, Pa., Aug. 3.—While many people are doubting whether the prices of farm and truck produce which went soaring with the war will gbt back to normal before the war Is ended and the many countries involved settle down to normal con ditions ngaln, there are some who have hopes for the Berks county sauerkraut crop. The first big crop of early cabba?o is now finding Its way to the markets and with the heads selling at 4 and ft cents each and in some instances as low as 3 cents there is some indication that the sauerkraut barrel will be well filled this fall. In fact, some people have already started to maka sauerkraut for pres ent consumption, but not until the latter part of {September will the great sauerkraut industry be on in earnest. _ Last winter, wnen sauerkraut jumped to 20, 25 and as high as 30 cents a quart, it almost became the dish of kings and hopes of the favor ite old prices of 5 and 6 cents a quart were shattered. Realizing that there was a big profit in kraut at such prices, nearly every Berks farmer and every trucker and gardener set out large beds of cabbage.

The summer has been very favor able to tho raising of cabbage and unless there Is a great lack of rain from now on until the tlino that tho fall cabbage Is urown there should be a bounteous crop. With sauerkraut making It will not be a preat while before the apple boiling and cider making time is at hand, and there Is no reason to sup poso that the applebutter crock will have to go empty. There are plenty of early apples and the fall crop will be something more than has been expected. The farmers of the county have about finished up the harvest of tho wheat and rye and beginning this week some of them have started on tho oats fields. The oats is a fair crop. The wheat standing in shock will scon bo hauled to tho barns, although the large hay crop, which crowds the mows, there will bo much wheat and rye stacked in the fields, where the threshing will be done later In the season. Tho Berks farmers have not yet reached the stage, like their western brothers, where the threshing is ear ride on in the fields almost as soon as the wheat Is cut, although there will be some who will start thresh ing early In Aucust.
