Wax' Office Report., That the General Situation In Flanders Remains Unchanged—Despite Gallant .lee- sistance of Canadians Enemy Ras CapturedSt. Julien, an Unimport- ant Village.: Britain Optimistic. LONDON, April 27.—The British War Office h ;s issued the following statement respecting the battle around Ypres: "First ---Severe fighting to the northeast of Y;,1_eu still continues,. the general : itu^tion remaining un- changed. Our left flank, in readjust- ing its Iine to meet the altered con- ditions duo to the forced retirement of the French, had to face to the north and to exteac. to the west be yond St. Julien. "This extension weakened our line for a time, an.l after a very gal- lant resistance by the Canadians against superior numbers, St. Julien was captured by the enemy. Our lines now• run south of'that place. "Second—Our troops to the east of Ypres have. bourse tie.breast of res peated heavy attacks;` which they stubbornly opposed throughout the battle inan. entirely. , unexpected slt- fixation,, whichhas demanded the ex- ercise of gallants* and fortitude by the men, and quid resource and oth- er military qualities by their com- manders. "Third—Attack: were also deliv- ered Sunday 'by tiro Germans on the east of the Ypres salient. In spite of the use by the enemy of asphyx- iating gases, tbe attacks were repuls- ed, and German officers and men were captured. 'In the fighting during the last three days wo have inflicted very heavy casualties oI. the Germans. Our losses also have been beavy. The German wireless report that four British heavy guns were captured is untrue. "Ono of our aviators dropped bombs on the Courtrai station yes- terday afternoon ane destroyed the junction. . Although wounded, be brought his mac'aine safely back to our lines." The capture of St. Julien, as re- ported in the British official state- ment, is not important, this town be- ing on the extrem. northern verge on the British ines, and being ,about three miles northwest of 'Ypres. It was on the line of the British ad- vanced trenc;ies, occupied by the Canadians. The British forces are evidently waiting for a favorable op- portunity to rash this village. While the majority of those cap- able of forming an opinion believe that the Germans by the stroke they have delivered against the British, French and Belgians, are once again aiming at Dunkirk aad Calais, there are otbers who believe that it is only a feint in force to draw the allies' reserves while preparations are being made for an attack at some other part of the long line. Whatever are the intentions of the Germans, they certainly made a coup, which, while it did not break, did dinge the allied lines. The Canadians, who were holding the British portion of the lines, were the first to recover them, and in an encounter the praises of which are ringing throughout the R)rnpire—recat.tured the ground they had been compelled to give, and, since then, with their comrades, have successfully withstood the German assaults. The Belgia"as and French, who re- ceived the blastie. fuller force, and who were driven back across the ca- nal between Boesinghe and Steen- straato, were net much slower in re- covering, and, exceeding to the French official re!•trts, succeeded in regaining possessio.i of tho canal banks and much of the surrendered territory to the e et. There is no inclination here, how- ever, to belittle the initial success of the German sweep an the work that is before the allied armies before the situation can be fully restored. The official reports throw little light on the progress of the battle, but news from Holland gives the in- formation that the cannonade Sun- day night was more severe than ever, and that long trains of German re- inforcements going -to the front aro passing equally long trains of wound- ed bound for tho baso hospitals. There is no likelihood, therefore, that the battle will be Ivor for some days to come, as the Germans have made immense preparations in men and material for their offensive, which has temporarily fcaestalled that of the allies. That there is no shortage of either men or munitions is shown by the fact that the Germans are at the same time conducting an offensive n the heights of the Meuse, where hey have made a,'. unsuccessful at- ack, according to the French official report, in an effort to recapture Les Eparges. British optimism in the outcome s encouraged by tho success of the allies in repelling similar attacks last October wbon they were less well quipped than the Germans, where- as now there is believed to be little o choose as between the opposing forces In either numbers or the mach- nory of war. The battle has had a n narkeda in h effect recruiting, w zea en- oyed a considoraoie boom yesterday. A bombarrraent of extreme ede- ma) enabled the Germans to gain a oothold on the summit of Hart- manns-Weilerkop:, but the French oldiers retain their trenches captur- d on March 25, about 350 yards ram the summit. From these post- ions the enemy can be dislodged at any time by'a vigor ©us attack. t t 1 0 t 1 1 s e 1 t J': I". Nannatti Dead. LONDON, Apr.. 27,—Joseph Pat- rick.

The department or agriculture dur- ing the past year has been eouducting campaigns in Indiana, IClissouri, Iowa and . Nebraska to control the •eonta- glees disease Of hogs known as "hog cholera" by means of anti -hog cholera serum and farm quarantine. ea one county (Pettis co+irate% Mo.), where there was a loss of 1S per cent in 1311 and 25.0 per cent in 1012 of al) hogs raised, there was only a loss of 14.7, per cent up to November, 1913. This • ,decrease was due to the use of the serum,i I winch, a.tttough not used there by the department's agents until Ave gust, 1913, materially reduced the loss. About 60,000 flogs were raised during the past year, and of the 10;000 that died of the hog cholera only about 1,000 were lost after the active use oil serum and quarantine measures. veva' inaugurated. n; Iu every county where these mea,•• ures were employed, even though. bele gnu after the disease bag'eontfnt ea ftse" ravages for some time, there was less loss from hog cholera than in either of the two preceding years. In addition to its great function i4 a preventive, it has been found that the anti -bog cholera serum would cure a large proportion of hogs' in the early, stages of the disease and render them immune after recovery. However, it hogs are not treated by this- serum) from 75 to 100 per cent of all affected( berds die. This serum, so 'far as is known, is the only thing diet will pre- vent the disease. Of hogs actually sick when treated, the department's inspectors lost but 25 per cent during last summer. Of well, hogs in diseased herds 2.S per cent died after being treated, and of hogs in ex-', posed herds less than 1 per cent died after being inoculated with the serum.' In an infected herd there is always a` certain proportion of hogs that .ars well. The inspector examines the hogs when he arrives, takes the tempera tore of all hogs in the herd and sepa-, rates the sick from the well. Thd temperature is a0 indication of the' sickness. The temperature of a sick' note zar mese STAGES OP DIseAse. hog, unless the hog is near death, will run above 104 degrees and sometimes: as high as 107 or 103 degrees F. The department in initiating its came paign against the devastating hog dose' ease has only been able to commence in a few of the districts where the, cholera was the most widespread and' where the active co-operation of the; state was offered in enforcing the orals, nary quarantine measures, eta The object of the department has been to endeavor to control the dice ease and if possible to eliminate it. from the country. To secure this end' tbe best efforts of the farmer himself` are necessary. The campaign against this devastating sickness during 191a was planned in the territory selected along three lines. First.—The education and organize, tion of the farmers in the districts seg lotted, to be carried out primarily by the state eolloe. Second.—The enforcement of sanitae tion and restrictive regulations by the state veterinarian. Third.—Active supervision by the bo- reau of animal Industry of the depart,. nient and the inoculation of diseased herds and exposed herds with the anti; hog cholera serum.• Ilog cholera is caused by a germ that exists in the blood. It is an or- gnnism apparently so small that the most powerful microscopes do not show it. However, it is easy to dem- onstrate its presence by Inoculating d small part of the blood from a sick hog into a well one, which produces the hog cholera. Ilog cholera is a disease which seems • to be stopped to a degree by tbe frosts of winter, although frost cannot 'he said to stop a case after It leas taken' hold of its victim. However, it seems to prevent the rapid spread of the +els: • ease. The result is that in the spring, time the affection is as a rule at its lowest ebb, but increases rapidly frond that time until fall.
