FRENCH ARMY NOW

 OF PHOTOGRAPHERS

Paris, Sept. 28--One of the French soldiers killed at the taking of Met zeral in A1sace. bAe1onged to a branch of the army service, organized after 10 months of war called the Photo graphic Section,' ''f which is now off cially photographing the war. Its: role is artistic, historical and educa- tonaL Although the staff is military it also is serving the foreign office and the department of public instruction.
 General Joffre, Monsieur MilIerand, Minister of War, Delcasse, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Sarraul, Min ister of Public Instruction, aided by the committee of foreign affairs of the Chamber of Deputies and the for ei gn office colIaborated in its organf- "a ton. The operators arc all mob ilizcd men, and, as at Metzeral, are on the fighting line, taking pictures, which, with orders. reports, plans and stitute the historical section. of the General Staff.
 For the fine arts section and the educational department it is intended thus to make a complete collection of photogra phs of destroyed or damaged public monuments of great artistic value, and in general to furnish a sort of illustrated annex to the history of the war for the instruction of future ge- erations.
 These official photograp phers during the seven days bcrnbardment of Met zeraI took 5000 negatives.
 A sales department has been or ganized to put on the market copies of all the photographs that the censos authorizes to be duplicated.

FOOD SCARCITY IN NORWAY Y-SWEDEN
 CAUSE OF ALARM
Governments May Prohibit Ex- ports of Provisions to Re-
 lieVe Conditions.
Christiania.

Christiania. Norway, Sept. 2s- Something very close to a panic is spreading over both Norway and Swe- den, as a result of the alarming scar city of provisions. and the unprece- dented prices which are demanded for the simplest kind of food. Nor way is now the point of following Sweden's lead in prohibiting the ex- port of all provisions of. which there is a present shortage, in order that prices may be brought down within the reach of the poorer classes.
 The advance in prices in Norway is approximately the same as in Swe- den, but in some eases it has been even more marked. Herring which is one of the main articles of diet among the peasant population, have risen from two cents to four and a half and five cents apiece, and the present price of oatmeal is 250 per cent higher than it was before the war.
 The meat shortage was temporarily relieved some time ago, as it was in Sweden, by the slaughter of large number of cattle, which there was not enough grain to feed, but prices have now advanced again, reaching the highest level ever known in Nor way. It is a curious paradox, how ever, that as nation, Norway's econ 
 than before the war. Norway's tre- nendous exports, at the same time that they have drained the country Of it's necessary provisions for home con sumption and carried masses of the people to the verge of starvation, have money into the country enabled the countryyto pay for all it's imports, and left a large surplus to be used for in dustriaI- purposes and public loans.
 The Bank of Norway-the govern ment's bank-had a year ago twenty million dollars of gold in its vaults Today it has forty million. A year ago it had issued paper money to the extent of five and half million be- yond it's deposits, while today with the same amount of paper currency in circulation, it has reserve of three million dollars.
 Deposits in private banks are at present thirty million dollars greater than a year ago on the same date. These banks had to their credit m foreign banks s70o. poo last year. This year they have ten millions. The war has thus brought Norway a flood tide of prosperity, and if government ac- and provide the poorer people with food, Norway will have little to lose and a great deal to gain from 9 long war.
 Norways friendship for England and the fact that she has had less to complain of in the restriction of imports than Sweden, have made her trade qdestion a much less serious one than in her sister country. Her chief grievance against England re- mains the English censorship of her mail and cablegrams to America and other neutral countries. Norway is still trying to devise a more direct and speedier cornmuni cation with America.
