Especially is the potato crop large
one. In order to conserve the supply,
the government has taken a hand in

report, while we only estimated $780,

"The reason for Germany's inner
condition is that the government at
present is engaged in legalizing uni
formity and adopting such measures
as have been taken by local and MILL
tary authorities. Butter prices will
be regulated for the empire by the
rules of Berlin. Maximum prices will
be set for milk. The needs of chill
dren, ailing mothers and the sick will
be specially cared for through sales
counters and special tickets. Meas
ures will also be taken whereby the

AuSTRO-CERMANS ARE

Paris, Oct. ga dispatch filed at
Athens by the Havas correspondent
says the Austro-G German offensive in
Serbia has been brought to a stand
still on the entire northern front, ac-
cording to advices received at Athens
from Nish. South of Pozarevac the
Serbians retired a few miles to strong
er positions.
Bulgarian attacks on the Timok and
Prot fronts are said to have been re-
pulsed so effectively that the invad-
ers were compelled to fill gaps in
their ranks and reform their units.
The dispatch adds that on this
northern part of the front, which the
Serbians consider invulnerable, the
operations of the Bulgarians have
been suspended. The Bulgarians are
making their principal efforts in Ser
bian Macedonia, where their impetus
is said to have been checked by the
combined movements Of. the French
and Serbians.
