On the Roer, be ' fdrd Cologne, we're still about vherc we were when the cyclone struck. We've been pushed baclt a little down In Alsace, but not enough to count much Hi the long run. We've lost no strategic points ol prime Importance, and our supply lines are still Intact. AFTER ali, the thing that will end the war Is KILLING ENOUGH GERMANS. We home fronters can only glicss, because losses have been strictly withheld from us, but it is a fnlr guess that by taking the Initiative In a gam ble that failed Von Rundstedt has lost more men than ho would hnvd lost if he had stayed on the defensive. MEANWHILE the Russians have gone into action and there seems little doubt that they have gone in for blood, i They are striking eastward to ward German Silesia, and It re quires no great stretch of the ltnnglnatlon to see this particular Drang of their offensive swinging a r o u ri d the Czechoslovaklan mountain barrier Into Austria. 'Silesia Is Germany's second most important industrial region. Czechoslovakia Is a beehive of German slave war industry. So li, southwest Poland. Austria is an immensely important center of German war Industry. The Russians, you see, are striking at NERVE CENTERS. THERE are strong intimations as this Is written (although there have been no direct dis closures) that the reds are start ing the final push to cut off East Prussia, If they run true to form, ' tliey will outflank this extended German bulge by pushing down the Vistula from Warsaw, rather . than by direct frontal assault. YOU may adhere to the BE WARE OF RUSSIA school of thought. .' If so, consider this fact: 5 Russia has announced her in tention to take all ol eastern Po land (eastward from the so-called Curron line), fehc has made this U accomplished fact by setting tip a puppet Polish government at Lublin. ; In return lor the territory thus fnken, she has promised the Poles part or perhaps all of East Prus sia and considerable parts of Ger man Silesia. ' Tills is the point: Russia has a sound, definite reason OF HER OWN for Hiking East Prussia anil Silesia. Her reason Is making good her prom ise to the Poles. The Poland she proposes Setting up will be a bet ter barrier for her AGAINST GERMANY or any- other possi ble enemy to the west. Stalin acts realistically accord nig1 to his oii conception of wht is best for Russia now and In the future. He has definite, realls lie reasons of his own for finish ing off the Germans In Silesia li nd East Prussia. - i ? This writer is perfectly confi dent that Stalin may be relied on n carry out whatever he may have lu mind for futherlng Rus sia s future greatness and securi- By Charles V. Stanton k MOST sensible approach to the problem of placing re " turning veterans on farms has been taken, we believe, by the Doiujlad County Agricultural Planning committee, which places emphasis on the fact that capital and experi ence are necessary for success in agriculture. Men who left Douglas county farms will, in general, be able to return to those farms, the committee believes. But the veteran, in experienced in agriculture and lacking capital to supply an income while learning to farm, id not encouraged by the committee to seek his livelihood from the soil. Many Douglas county boys now in military services went from farm homes. These boys can expect to come back and eventually take over the home place or set up farm enter prises of their own. They will have been experienced in production trends and methods peculiar to the county and may be expected to engage profitably in agricultural pur suits. But the committee finds that opportunity for other veter ans is limited, especially as it pertains to those with little capiti' and those lacking experience in farm production. We believe it is sound policy for the county committee to make such declaration. Too many people have the impres sion that farming is an activity in which airyone can en gage without money or technical knowledge. The truth is, however, that successful farming requires a high degree of skill, involves much study, and a vast amount of hard work. A certain period of apprenticeship is required in any leading trade or profession, but for some peculiar reason many people seem to have the idea that no previous training is necessary to make a living from the soil. Some national leaders are advocating federal aid to place veterans on farms, without taking into consideration adaptability or experience. :W?M JHESE (THINGS OUTSIDE 'J THAT'S MY BEST 'Vou'lli have me ., y dog vod ddnt ) ifmmi tsj A HOSPITAL.' : V FALL OVER EVERY O :f!ffP tm?irr rK' I tj-J ' jf DOG YOU SEE OKJ '.vW'IfllH " , ' j I TH' STREETS--!

This time his auto: bitlered by disappointment because they have been un-fk'k,;m emlt itic wisely aaviseu. Wo are not among those who believe Douglas county has reached its peak in agricultural development. We feel lliere is a great field here. Livestock can be materially in creased by proper range and pasture management, but much technical skill is involved. The poultry industry offers great opportunities, but there are few quicker ways of go ing broke than in large-scale poultry ventures unless backed by knowledge and experience. Dairying has a great future in Douglas county, but here again is a field where a man must have had previous train ing. Douglas county can sustain increased production of fruits, melons and garden products, but these crops re quire knowledge of markets as well as the problems of productivity. Douglas county invites the veteran who desires to en gage in agriculture. It offers him rich laud and golden opportunities. But he should not come with illusions that farming is an industry in which he can engage without hav ing gained technical knowledge either through agricultural schools or through a period of apprenticeship, preferably both.
