TEUT0NIC ARMIES
 ARE BACKING UP
According to Reports From Eas- tern Front TeutOns Continue to Fall Back on Line-Italians Score Further Successes.

London, Aug. 14.-The Austrians and Germans in Galicia are still fali- ing back before the advance of the Russians, who, according to Petrograd have made additional gains along the Sereth and Vlota-Lipa rivers, and have captured the strongly fortified town of Tustobaby, northwest of the Dneister.
 On the upper Sereth, however, the Teutonic allies at some points on the newly chosen line are holding back the Russians. Berlin says that south of Brody, on the Lub and Graberkr sectors, Russian attacks were put down with heavy losses and Russians who had penetrated Teutonic lines on the Zboroff- -Kinucay line northwest of Tarnopol were driven off and 300 of them taken prisoners.
 According to Vienna, a Russian at tack southwest of Podkamien, near Brody, ended with the field before the Austro-German position, covered with Russian dead.
 No change took place Monday along either British or French lines in France, bad weather hindering the operations. According to Berlin, the British have been expelled over front of 700 yards southwest of the Thiep- val-Pozieres sector, which they occu- pied Sunday
 On the Isonzo front, according to Rome, the Italians have made still further advances against the Aus trians along the Carso plateau and least of Hill 212 In the latter sector another line of trenches was pene- trated and more men taken prisoner. In the Gorizia sector, Rome says, the Austrian guns are being busily em- .ployed against the Italians. Here seven charges by the Italians were put down.
 Petrograd reports a continuation of the Turkish offensive on the Persian frontier, but asserts retreat of the Turks has been forced on the south west bank of Lake Nann, Turkish Ar menia, through the fire of Russian fotillas on the lake. The Turkish war office says the Russians in Persia con tinue to be driven back by the Otto- man troops and north of Bitlis the Turks have made a further advance.

Conservation Of FertiIizing Ma
terial is Urged by Secre-
tary Houston.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.--The secre-
{ tary OF agriculture has just made
the following statement regarding the
fertilizer situation: ~
American farmers are confronted
by a serious situation in reference to
fertilizer materials. AS n result of
the embargo placed by the German
government on the expectation OF
potash, the supply OF this substance
has been entirely cut Off. Under nor
nal conditions sulphuric acid, which
is required for making super phos-
pilates, is sold for $500 or $500 a
ton. The increased demand for 1t
since the breaking out Of the Euro
pean war has caused the price to rise
to about $500 a ton. 1t is impossible
therefore for farmers to secure super
phosphates at prices which they have
been accustomed to pay. The nitro
gen supply is not materially less than.
usual.
Imported from Germany. "A
In 1913, when conditions were nor
NAL, about $125,2SO,0OO worth OF COM
mercial fertilizers was used in the
United States. OF this amount, the
farmers paid $4S,S3O,OOO for nitrogen
GUS substances, $56,0OO,000 for phos-
pilates, and s2O,45O.O0O for potash
salts. Practically all the potash salts
we're imported from Germany and the
entire quantity Of nitrate Of soda
came from Chile. Ammonium sui
phate to the value of SS,720,OOO was
received from abroad, mainly from
England. The remainder Of the fer
tilizer materials was derived from do
nestle sources.
The quantities OF the various sub
stances entering into the fertilizer
trade and the prices paid by the farm
ers were approximately as follows:
