Ths aused the for a few days and than thngs cae to a standstll.

Ths gun got our nerves on edge, and Frtz seeed to know t, because he never gave us an hour's rest. Our reputaton as achne gunners was at stake; we tred varous ruses to locate and put ths gun out of acton, but each one proved to be a falure, and Frtz becae a worse nusance than ever. He was gettng fresher and ore careless every day, took all knds of lbertes wth us thought he was nvluclble. Then one of our crew got a brllant dea and we were all enthusastc to put t to the test. Here was hs schee: When frng y gun, was to play y tune, and Frtz, no doubt, would fall for t, try to tate e as an added nsult. Ths gunner and two others would try, by the sound, to locate Frtz and hs gun.

Our prestge was hangng by a thread. n the battalon we had to endure all knds of nsults and fresh rearks as to our ablty n slencng Frtz. Even to the battalon that Geran gun was a sore spot Next day, Frtz opened up as usual. let h fre away for a whle and then butted n wth y "pup-pup-puppup-pup-pup." kept ths up qute a whle, used two belts of aunton.

The next aernoon was set for the grand fnale. Our three guns, wth dfferent elevatons, had ther fre so arranged, that, openng up together, ther bullets would suddenly drop on Frtz lke a halstor. About three the next day, Frtz started "pup-puppng" that tune. blew a sharp Wast on a whstle, t was the sgnal agreed upon; we turned loose and Frtz's gun suddenly stopped n the ddle of a bar. We had cooked hs goose, and our ruse had worked. Aer frng two belts each, to ake sure of our Job, we hurredly dsounted our guns and took cover n the dugout. We knew what to expect soon. We ddn't have to wat long, three salvos of "whzz-bangs" cae over fro Frtz's artllery, a further confraton that we had sent that uscal achne-gunner on hs Westward-bound Journey. Tnat gun never bothered us agan. We were the heroes of tlfe battalon, our captan congratulated us, sad t was a neat pece of work, and, consequently, we were all puffed up over the stunt. There are several ways Toy uses to dsguse the locaton of hs achne gun and get hs range. Soe of the ost coonly used stunts are as follows: At nght, when he ounts hs gun over the top of hs trench and wants to get the range of Frtz's trench he adopts the ethod of what he terras "gettng the sparks." Ths conssts of frng bursts fro hs gun untl the bullets ht the Geran barbed wre. He can tell when they are cuttng the wre, because a bullet when t hts a wre throws out a blue electrc spark. Machne-gun fre s very daagng to wre and causes any a wrng party to go out at nght when t s quet to repar the daage. To dsguse the flare of hs gun at nght when frng, Toy uses what s called a flare protector. Ths s a stoveppe arrangeent whch s over the barrel casng of the gun and screens th sparks fro the rght and le, but not fro the front. So Toy, always resourceful, adopts ths schee: About three feet or less n front of the gun he drves two stakes nto the ground, abou 1 fve feet apart. Across these stakes he stretches a curtan ade out of epty sandbags rpped open. He sonks ths curtan n water and fres through t. The water prevents t catchng fre and effectvely screens the flare of the frng gun fro the eney. Sound s a valuable asset n locatng a achne gun, but Toy surounts ths obstacle by placng two achne guns about one hundred to one hundred and fy yards apart. The gun on the rght to cover wth ts fre the sector of the le gun and the gun on the le to cover that of the rght gun. Ths akes ther fre cross; they are fred sultaneously. By ths ethod t sounds lke one gun frng and gves the Gerans the presson that the gun s frng fro a pont dway between the guns whch are actually frng, and they accordngly shell that partcular spot The achne gunrers chuckle and say, "Frtz s u bruay boy, not 'alf he an't." But the en n our lnes at the spot beng shelled curse Frtz for hs gnorance and pusa n few pert rearks down the lne n reference to the achne gunners beng "wndy" and afrad to take ther edcne. CHAPTER XX. Gas Attacks and Spes. Three days aer we had slenced Frts, the Gerans sent over gas. t dd not catch us unawares, because the wnd had been ade to order, that s, t was blowng fro the Geran trenches toward ours at the rate of about fve les per hour. Warnngs had been passed down the trench to keep a sharp lookout for gas. We had a new an at the perscope, on ths aernoon n queston; was sttng ou the fre step, cleanng y rfle, when be called out to e: "There's a sort of greensh, yellow cloud rollng along the ground out n front t's cong " But wated for no ore, grabbng y bayonet, whch was detached fro the rfle, gave the alar by bangng an epty shell case, whch was hangng near the perscope. At the sae nstant, gongs started rngng down the trench, the sgnal for Toy to don hs resprator, or soke helet, as we call t. Gas travels quckly, so you ust not lose any te; you generally have about eghteen or twenty seconds n whch to adjust your gas helet. Epey s assgned to the ntellgence departent, but fnds t la not the "so" snap that he antcpated. The next nstallent tells of soe of hs experences n hs new Job as a spy-catcher. (TO BE CONTNUED.)

NEW UWS ARE NEEDED Present Method of Collectng Dran Tax s Too Burdensoe, Accordng to O. E. Robey. By O. E. ROBEY, Specalst n Dranage Mchgan Agrcultural College. "Bast Lansfng, Mch. n these days s whch we are takng all concevable steps to protect our crops aganst all possble enees and the world fro fane we should not lose sght of the ense crop producng value of proper dranage. Whenever we see an area under water whch would becoe very good far land f properly draned, but whch la not bearng an edble blade of grass, we wonder why we are not akng better use of t. Excess water of another sort, however, s probably curtalng our agrcultural effort ore than are these vast tracts of unreclaed land n Mchgan. refer to the thousands of felds plowed and planted each year wth the antcpaton of a favorable season but whch yeld only dsappontent at harvest te because of too uch osture n the subsol..n the case of the undeveloped land We do not expect a crop. We do not apend our hgh-prced labor atteptng to cultvate t nor do we waste our hgh-prced seeds. Our drect loss here 9. not great. n the other nstance, where the wetness s not so evdent. we squander both te and seed and the-joss. s soetes runous. Ths latter type of land, the knd that looks dry but actually s wetter than Wsconsn s losng ore for the Mchgan farer today than are the unreclaed tracts. Usually these lands are arked by a heavy clay sol whch s very retentve of osture. A contnued wet spell so saturates the that they rean full of water for a long te. Ths prevents the sol fro properly warng up n the sprng, or at any other perod of the growng season, because the water as well as the sol ust be heated. The osture also prevents the proper crculaton of the ar whch s so necessary for the growth of the plant and for the breakng down of plantfood. Warth, food and ar are all of the very vtal eleents n the developent of a plant. One of the ost effectve ways of nsurng a crop upon ths type of land s to systeatcally underdran t. Underdranage, where t s needed, s one of the ost fundaental requreents of proable agrculture. Yet how oen s ths fact lost sght of. f underdralnage s necessary, and t s necessary f a crop s partally or copletely lost n an unfavorable season, t s one of the frst proveents whch should be ade. Whenever dranage s spoken of n a county where t has not "been tred out to any great extent the expense s frst thought of. t does see expensve to nvest fro $20 to $40 an acre n land that ay be already hgh n prce, but t should be reebered that the bene fro ths expendture s not for one year alone, but should reasonably extend over a lfe-te. f we consder the proble on ths bass, t aounts to a uch saller expense per year than any of the other nvestents whch we are akng to ncrease producton, such as applcaton of fertlzers, use of hgh-producng seeds, -a.nd so on. f n vstng varous sectons of the state where underdralnage has been practced for soe te one cannot but be pressed by the unfor opnon of those who have tred t that t a one of the ost payng nvestents they have ever ade. Many a farer who s accuulatng oney to buy an addtonal far ght far better nvest hs oney n systeatcally uoderrtralnlng hs present property. Mat? nstances have coe to y attecton of farers, who lackng oney, have borrowed t and draned to ther fnancal betterent. jo llustrate what tle dranage wll do ~to ncrease food producton, t s obty ooceosary to reeber the nr- X ef tle lad n Mchgan last year. %e>bttoevb that the ,000 tle put 'MpUt year wll ncrease crop produc- **& one-thrd on the toad draned wfat taken orer a aeres of years, thousand acres of land were ted 1«MMdgan last year. The la>!*:«tf ttbt ^jtr land doe to better «ortda»t wheat, < feed a dty of 50,- der present condtons, t wll he seen, would be to ncrease the aount of tle dranage n Mchgan. Ths would not only produce food now, when t s ost needed, but t would go on producng food for years and years to coe. Durng the last year the farers of the state of Mchgan pad over three llon dollars n dran taxes to secure sutable outlets for dranage to ther land and undoubtedly ths was oney well spent. t wll brng a great deal ore than ths aount n returns, but t s one of the ost laentable facts n our dranage stuaton that any farers adjacent to these drans do not realze as uch as they ght fro ths tax nvesteut. f proper systes of underdralnage could be edately nstalled the land could be ade to very quckly pay for ths outlay. n the ajorty of cases, however, the hgh dran tax exhausts the supply of oney wth whch the farer ght carry on ths aer-deveopnent. By the te the farer gets squared away the dtch s oen so flled up wth rubbsh that ts value as an outlet s aterally reduced, f not entrely destroyed. We need legslatve reedes for ths, soethng that wll encourage edate developent of the adjacent property and provde for alntenace of county drans aer they are copleted, The foraton of dranage dstrcts wth the power to bond s one way of eetng the frst trouble, and no doubt a sutable schee can be worked out to correct the latter. Organzaton of dstrcts along natural lnes, nstead of along the present arbtrary boundares, would be helpful. CROP OF FORESTERS FALS Nuber of Traned Woodsen nade. quate for Supplyng of Current Deands. East Lansng, Mch. For the an who s lured by the breath of the pne woods, and for all those who love the great out-of-doors, the present s a season of opportunty, declares Prof. A. K. Chttenden, head of the departent of forestry at M. A. C. Owners of country estates, ctes n quest of tree surgeons, and federal and state governents are all of the n the arket for en traned n forestry, but n the opnon of the professor they are destned to rean epty handed unless young Aerca coes to the rescue. "Even before the war cae upon us," says Professor Chttenden, "the calls for foresters wth college tranng uch outnubered the en qualfed to fll the postons offered. Ths state of affars has coe about as the result of the ncreasng eployent of foresters by ctes throughout the country, and to the use of the n large nubers n other capactes. "Unless ore boys enroll n the colleges for tranng as foresters, ths dearth of able en s lkely to becoe chronc. The boy who doesn't know what to do wth hself ought to nvestgate ths professon." BG CROP PEDGREED GRAN Large Acreages of Red Rock Wheat and Rosen Rye Are Harvested. East Lansng, Mch. Reports fled wth the Mchgan agrcultural college by growers n varous parts of Mchgan ndcate that enough pedgreed wheat and rye was harvested wthn the state ths season to sow at least half of Mchgan's wheat and rye acreages, to these proved crops next fall. Enough nspected and certfed Red Rock wheat was harvested, accordng to the stateent of secretary of the Mchgan Crop proveent assocaton, to sow 90,000 acres ths cong fall to ths superor gran, and enough of Red Rock wheat of all grades to sow 360,000 acres. Of Rosen rye a suffcent quantty of the nspected and certfed gran has been harvested to sow 70,000 acres. Both Red Rock wheat and Rosen rye, whch are specal strans of hgh yeldng grans produced orgnally by the experent staton of the college, have won such a reputaton for theselves that Mchgan growers were called upon last season to supply seed to far* era n 20 other states. "Strpe" Hts Barley. A dsease known as the barley "leaf strpe" s reported by the departent of plant pathology of M. A. C. to have been the cause of apprecable loss ths season to Mchgan barley growers. The dsease produces stunted plants wth blasted heads, and the leaves are strped so that they look lke rbbon grass. Accordng to the college pathologsts, the ost effectve way to get rd of the trouble s to secure seed that s dean and to avod puttng- n another crop of barley on the Held fro whch the dseased crop was reoved, doaanca as growers very rarely follow barky wt* barley. t» ecortn* of. dean teed fro neghbors whose felds free fro the daeaae la eauld* wwy* e* a*edtee#f* NNOCENCE.

The story was told when good lands near lnes of ralway could be that. That day has coe ore quckly than expected.
