Allies Make Gains at Gallipoli and Northern Front
London reports say French and British forces continue to gain land in the Dardanelles though no decisive phase has been reached. A British correspondent claims the Gallipoli coast may be in Allied hands. In the North Sea a Dutch trawler was attacked by a German aeroplane but not seriously damaged. A great battle rages in northern France with both sides exhausted, while the Russian war office says the Galicia front relaxes. Both German and French official notices finally align on progress.

North Dakota Wheat Acreage Seen Rising Sharply
Experts forecast North Dakota wheat acreage will reach about 8.1 million acres this year, up from 7.2 million last year, a roughly 19 percent increase. New lands in western and central counties seed wheat, with Red River valley showing little change. Delays in planting low lands reduced actual sowing, but overall acreage is expected to rise as prairie lands are broken. Wheat statewide stands 6 percent above the eight year average, with spring plowing 72 percent complete.
