So many of the State's foresters have enlisted that it is Impossible to make a canvass of the State forests and the only alternative, say men at the department, is to appeal to lumbermen and farmers who have white ash stumpage or who have small stocks of manufactured ash.

At noon American airmen dropped bombs on the railway yards at Longuyon scoring several direct hits. Late In the afternoon Conflans was again raided but poor visibility made It difficult to ascertain whether the bombing was effective. Enemy anti aircraft guns were active against the American raiders In all three of the day's excursions, All four ma chines returned, One lone American aviator attack ed a" German who was diving at a French balloon. Despite the fact that there were six Germans above him'', the American forced the German ma- j chine Into a noes dive. The six othei | Germans then attacked the American and forced him to descend. He land ed behind the American lines unin jured. Americans Take Part in Desperate Battling With tiio American Army in, France. Aug. 30.—The record of an American air unit, comprising "5 pilots, shows that during July it shot down 28 enemy airplanes and one balloon. Eighteen other planes are claimed to have been brought down but these are not confirmed. The American airmen engaged in 144 combats and went on 131 cambat patrols. The unit's best days were July 16, when six enemy machines and one balloon were destroyed, and July 24, when five airplanes were destroyed without an American casualty. Austrian Morale Bad An Austrian taken prisoner oh the western front says the morale of the Austrian army now is so bad that German troops habitually are placed behind them with orders to shoot any men who endeavor to desert. While the French troops on the right and left of the Americans on the front north of Soissons struggled forward to-day, the Americans sent thousands of rounds of high explo sive shells and shrapnel into the Ger man positions. They made little ef fort to advance their line. Late this afternoon some progress was made by the Americans in the region of Juvigny. Although thq day was not marked by any spectacular advance, there was far from a lull in the activities on the American front. Germans Fight Well Since the Americans appeared on Wednesday the Germans have dis played stubbornness and skill. They have good positions and are defend ing them in a manner which would suggest that they might even attempt a serious counterattack.' The posi tions of the Americans are perhaps not so good,-and the contest seema to have narrowed down to one of camparative merits of officers and men of the two organizations. Before the day was over the Ger mans had begun to show signs of weakening and observers reported troop movements which appeared to indicate a regrouping and perhaps retirement. The orders to the Americans were to maintain a harassing lire through out the day, and even the minor at tack of one flank was decided upon only after the advance made by the French indicated its advisability. Yankees Dig In Over the field the American in fantry remained in the positions they had held last night. Dug in behind almost every little rise on the plateau and on the hillside, they awaited the order to attack. Closer to the Ger man positions scores of shell holes sheltered the men from the sweeping machine gun fire, while further to the rear there were companies wait ing to be called to their support. The artillery went into the action early in the morning, not in barrage, but firing first at one point in the German lines and then at another, in accordance with reports indicating places where the Germans were mobilizing or where there might be danger of a concentration. Rarely, if ever, have the American troops de livered over such a period so con tinuous a fire. It was of a punishing character that must have wrought terrible destruction, and probably much demoralization. Lines Close Together The lines are close together, and great Shells from the howitzers were mixed With those of the lighter char acter, while the big long range American guns sent far in the rear of the enemy lines shells to places in dicated by observers in the aerial service. * The American infantry between the lines was forced to become a part of the action to-day by the de termined Germans, whose long line of machine gun emplacements was supplemented by groups of infantry who fired at every appearance of the Americans. It svas a day of sniping for them, especially the machine gunners. One gunner had the trick of holding the trigger until Just three shots were fired. All day long his gun gave forts its "tat, tat, tat," every burst being followed by a slight change in direction. Wounded in Legs A large part of those caught in the ground-sweeping fire were wounded in the legs below the knees. The Germans in front of the Amer icans at times were subjected not only to the fire of the American guns but to a supplemental raking from the French. It has been impossible to ascertain the German casualties, but it is certain that they were heavy. The big gunfire reached the maxi mum of Intensity. The roar of the artillery rose in a great crescendo. The Americans used no gas shells. The Germans did, however, but in slightly smaller quantities than usual. TJ. S. Patrols Active American patrols are active &ach night keeping in contact with the enemy along the Vesle. The Ameri can officers continue to believe that the Germans will soon be compelled to withdraw at least as far as the Aisne, owing to the constant pres sure on the French and British fronts. The Americans are determin ed to be stepping on the hceld* of the Germans when they begin their re treat, which, the officers say "is com ing sooner or later." Use McNeil's Cold Tablets. Adv.'
