Berlin, Nov. 18.-Whether the latest
German victories in the cast have
stopped the Russian advance can noe
be foretold, but undoubtedly they
have resulted in giving the Germans
an excellent strategic position, and
at the same time increasing the diff
fcuIties Of the enemy's position. The
Russians near Soldau were driven
through Lipno to Flock and the army
defeated by General Hindenberg at
WlocIawek was forced southwark to
KUtno instead of back upon the line
of its advance. The Vistula is be-
tw cen the two Russian forces and is
likely to prove a great barrier in case
OF further defeats.
The victory itself, it is declared,
Should not be oyerestimated, because
il is not yet known whether it has
brought the enemy to retreat or even
to q standstil1. The losses, excluding
prisoners, exceed a whole corps, but
il must not be forgotten that the Rus
slams are operating in great force.

The anxiety that has been espresso d
in regard to the effect upon human
health Of the present outbreak of tie
foot-and-mouth disease is regarded by
government authorities as somewh at
exaggerated. The most common fear
is that the milk supply might becon e
contaminated, but in view of the pre-
cautions that the local authorities in
the infected areas are very generally
taking their is comparatively little
danger of this. Milk from infected
farms is not permitted to be shipped at
all. Pasteurization is recommended,
however, for all milk.

BAMBOO AS PAPER MATERIAL
Experiments Being Made With ths
Hope That This Material May
Be FounS Available.


Inventors are seeking a substitute
for the wood pulp in the manufacturs
OF paper. SO far various methods
have been tried to produce the coarser
grades OF paper from corn husks,
grass. reeds and other forms of veg
etable life, but print paper has not
yet been successfully produced from
anything except wood pulp,
In the far east they are making ex-
periments with bamboo as a possible
basis for the making of pulp. some
capitalists of the Orient have gone so
far as to establish factories in Siam,
Burma and India, but the undertaking
has not yet been altogether successful.
The great factor against the success
Of the enterprise in India seems to be
the question of satisfactory and cheap
transportation.
Pulp so far manufactured has had
the fault of being too dark in color to
bring a satisfactory price. Bamboos
most Of the time so far have cost SS.41
gold ton. Little of the product so
far has been sold, but samples sub

company may receive as high as $5S.27
gold ton. The maximum output of
the factory so far has not exceeded
half of the original expectation of IS
tons of pulp day, but 1t Is now ex-
pected that with small addition to
the plant a normal output of IL tons
can be maintained and that this rate
may be exceeded in time. with COM
parativeiy little additional expense.
The critical feature OF the entire
enterprise seems to be in the matter
of bleaching the pulp. Experts claim
for bamboo pulp certain advantages,
among which is the fact that bamboo
pulp can be had in parts of the world
where other pulp materials are not to
be, had; it produces fine pulp which
felts r. .dily and produces a thick
opaque paper OF greater thickness
than usual for its weight, making 1t
especially suitable for particular va
rieties of paper; the flne flexible hber
is easily digested by the ordinary BIZ.
sulphide process and the bamboo can
readily be handled mechanically and
chemically.
