TURNS HIS BACK YARD INTO
I WELL-PAYING WAR FARM
William S. Glover Finds Profitable Investment in His Patri
otic Work; City Lot Used to Good Advantage
Few persons realize what the war
has done for this country in the mat
ter of promoting intensive agricul
tural efforts, especially in the re
stricted areas of the cities and towns.
William S. Glover can lay claim to
being one 01' the leading farmers of
Harrisburg. He lives at 333 Muencli
street and here is the story of his
season's trucking on a lot 18 by 75
I'eet, surrounded by board fences and
buildings:
During leisure hours from his reg
ular employment he planted string
beans, pole beans, lima beans, beets,
cabbage, corn, parsley, and tomatoes
and after using on his family table
vegetables throughout the summer
and up to the thirtieth of September,
Mrs. Glover was able to can, preserve
and pickle 152 quarts of the excess
.yield of the vegetables named.
Mr. Glover says the total cost was
$2.55—51.95 for seeds, 50 cents for
manure n,nd 10 cents for spraying, i
BRITISH TROOPS
TRIUMPH IN WAR
DRIVES OF DAY
Casualties of Great Propor
tions Inflicted on Enemy
in St. Quentin Area
With the British Army in France,
Oct. 2.—Yesterday was another day
Of victories for the fighting British
army. The Belgians also continued
their forward movement. Gains of
the greatest importance were made
by the Australians between Cambrai
and St. Quentin, and it seems that
they have crossed the canal every
where. Long lines of enemy trans
ports are fleeing east and northeast
ward from this region, as well as
other regions.
The day was an ideal one for fly
ing, and the British aviators, who
had not been busy for several days,
again came into tlieir own. The
planes flew low over the enemy,
masses and poured bullets by tens of
thousands into them, while at the
•same time bombers picked massed
troops as targets and often loosed
their projectiles on the transport
columns in full flight, inflicting ter
rible damage. The better visibility
also enabled the British gunners to
do more accurate work.
Once more casualties of great pro
portions have been inflicted on the
Germans, who now are fighting with
greatest desperation, realizing that
their position in this entire area is
more precarious than at any time
during the past four years.
True, there has been again the
hardest sort of close fighting astride
and in the Hindenburg system; but
back of here there is open country.
Joncourt now is well behind the
British lines after brisk lighting.
The lines are some distance east of
Levergles. Estrees, captured once
and then lost ir. a counterattack, has
now been taken again by storm. The
Australians smashed well eastward
of if, making sure of maintaining
their gain.
From here the battle line curves
hack northwestward, passing about
1.500 yards southwest of Gouey.
which also lias once been reached
by the allied troops but at the pres
ent moment is in German hands.
■The torch has been applied to
Cambrai and the town is burning
briskly. It is evident that the Ger
mans realize they must get away
from this locality, and consequently
they are burning Cambrai and other
places. Great tongues of flame and
billows of smoke are rising from
Cambrai.
Accused of Having 5 Wives,
Indictment Mars Honeymoon
New York. Oct. 2—With two
women claiming him as husband
and three others alleged to have
married him in cities scattered
throughout the country, Howard
Lee /ones, a mechanical engineer,
who is said to have held an official
position at New Orleans with the
Emergency Fleet Corporation, was
indicted here yesterday on a charge
of bigamy.
Jones, who claims Alexandria, Va.,
as his home, was arrested last Fri
day at Wilmington, Del., where he
was spending a honeymoon with

and the market value of the crop was
$36.33 reckoned on the basket quan
tity. If he had sold the crop as is
usually done at market by the half
peck or quart, the revenue would
itave been probably twice as much.
The first planting was done the
first week in May. In July he gaih
ered the first crop of string beans
and promptly planted another crop,
which he continued to gather, the
last on Monday of this week. He
raised pole beans between the rows
of beets which gave hint two crops in

GERMANS YIELD
TO YANKEES IN
ARGONNE DRIVE
American Sappers Clean Up
Teuton Machine Gunners;
U. S. Airmen Busy
By Associated Press
With the American Army North
west of Verdun, Oct. 2.—The enemy
last night appeared to be withdraw
ing on the American left in the di
rection of the junction of the Brun
hild and Kriemhild systems.
In the Argonne forest Americans
made progress during the day. East
of the forest they were operating
north of Cierges and held positions
on the road from Gesnes to Exer
mont. They repulsed a counterat
tack north of Apremont.
In this district there has been
stiff lighting, local positions repeat
edly changing hands until the Amer
icans yesterday established their su
premacy.
The American aerial force has
bagged one hundred hostile planes
and twenty-one balloons since Sep
tember 26.
In the Argonne forest there has
been a strange blind struggle in the
very thickest part of the wooded
bastion, where the undergrowth is
so dense that opposing platoons fil
tered through each other without
being aware of it.
The Germans several times'utilized
these mistakes by turning machine
guns on men who had passed them,
but American sappers, cleaning up
behind the advance, soon put a stop
to this by cleaning up the enemy
gunners
On the American left during the
advance the Americans were faced
by determined opposition which de
layed them for two days. Here the
greater part of the fighting was
across the mouth of the valley up
which runs the high road to Dun.
on the Meuse. The Americans were
confronted by a German division
which had been resting in Alsace
and was thrown hurriedly into the
fight.
In this region the nearest ap
proach to hand-to-hand fighting took
place, grenades being used in pref
erence to any other weapon. Great
work was done by pioneer troops in
cleaning out maehine-gun nests.
Luke, Arizona Birdman,
Fires Three Hun Balloons
Willi the American Army on the
Lorraine. Oct. 2.—Three more
enemy balloons have been added to
his already long list by Lieutenant
Frank Luke, Jr., of Phoenix. Ariz.
Confident that he would get the bal
loons he desired. Luke dropped a
message as he flew over the line op
posite the points he intended to at
tack. telling the Americans to look
out for burning balloons. A few
minutes later two enemy observer
balloons fell In flames. After a brief
interval a balloon further down the
line was seen to be on fire, marking
Luke's dash over the enemy front.
The attack was made during the
darkness.
