•BULLETIN.

BERLIN, June 27.—Marked activity continues in evidence along the Franco-Belgian front held by the British and the northern wing of the French line. Numerous gas clouds are being employed by the entente forces in the operations, the war office an-, nounced today.

Today's dispatches give little indication of the.gonial course of events within the past few hours along the Franco-Belgian front where the. British artillery has been notauiv active for two or three, days. The latest reports- from both Berlin and .London, however, lehd color to the somnwhat prevalent belief that the long threatened concerted attack by the entente allies on the various fronts is in preparation, if not in actuai process of execution.

At Verdun the "situation lias not materially changed, over night. Paris reports further progress fcr ihe Frei ch in regaining ground in the region of the Thiaumont work" north of the citadel. Rather spirited fghting als? has been in progress in the region of F'luery with no alterations in positijn.

Never Neglect Colds Treat Them Promptly

Often they lead to those pulmonarv troubles which are responsible for more than one-tenth of all lives lost through Illness.

Heavy colds which develop deepseated coughts or cause inflammation of the air-passages and persist in spite at medication, weaken the system to a point where resistance easily is overcome—and asthma, bronchial and pulmonary troubles are the result. To renew normal resistance. Eckman'a Alterative has been found highly beneficial in many instances.

Its lime content is so combined with other remedial agents as to be easily assimilated by the average person—and it contains no narcotihs or habit-form-ing druars of any sort. So it's safe to try. Sold by Arthur Baur and leading druggists.

MOVE TO SAVE CROP!

Lays Extensive Plau to Speed TJp Harvest to Prevent Repetition of Losses of 1915.

BUDAPEST (via Berlin to London), Jufie 27.—With memories of the 1915 weather fresh in mind and the freakish weather of the past three weeks as a warning that a record crop can easily be turned over night into a partial failure, the Hungarian agricultural authorities have decided upon unusual and radical measures to harvest the 1916 crops in the speediest possible manner.

The municipal local authorities throughout the country have been empowered to requisition for harvesting purposes the services of every man, woman, and child at home, not serving the state in some indispensable service at fixed wages. Prisoners of war working in no military concerns also have been requisitioned for the harvesting and several thousand workmen have been imported from Russian Poland and all the troops in the interior who can be spared will be furloughed* for t,he same purpose.

The ministry of agriculture has acquired all available harvesting machinery for distribution among the peasantry, and agricultural experts estimate that six weeks of sunshine, after the long rains, will result in the production of a record breaking crop In Hungary.
