OUTDOOR MARKET FOR
TRUCK IN ATLANTA

Atlanta, Ga, Aug 24-An outdoor
market where truck farmers can sell
their products directly to the con-
sumers on certain days of the week
is the latest move started in Atlanta
to meet the great problem OF the high
cost OF living.
In the little city of Decatur, which
is Atlanta's next door neighbor, they
have had such a market in successful
operation for several weeks, and the
housewives of the town have found
it to be veritabl boon of good for
tune. At o'clock every Tuesday and
Saturday mornings the truck farmers
Of the vicinity OF Decatur drive into
town with wagon loads of vegetables
and other food products and sell them
on the court house square. The
housewives go to the square with
baskets and the earliest arrivals get
the pick of the truck

WAR TO DATE

along the Izonso front daily CON
tues to gain in impetus, and appar-
entity the strong Austrian counter
attacks nowhere have been able to
stem the tide that is bringing Gen.
Cadrona's men gradually closer to-
ward their objective.
Meanwhile the German operations
east OF Riga are developing in
strength as the Russians have given
further ground to the enemy Around
Verdun in France the French army is
holding its gains OF the early week
unhampcred BY the German infantry,
but with the guns OF the German
Crown Prince raking the line ar va
rious points.
AT Lens the Canadians have work
ed their way farther into the environs
of the coal city and in Belgium, near
Ypres, Field Marshal Haig's men
have been victorious in a two day
battle, making gains over their front
varying in depth from half a mile
to few hundred yards, notwithstand-
ing the tenacious resistance of the le-
gions of Crown Prince Rupprecht.
On both the northern and southern
ends of the battle line in the Austro-
Italian thcater the Italians have press
ed forward their line for considerable
new gains against the Austrians. The
counter-attacks of the Austrians are
OF the most extreme violence, but no.
where have they been able to dislodge
the Italians.
More than 10000 prisoners already
have been taken by the Italians
Although the exact extent of the
Italian advance has not yet become
apparent and the objective aimed at
is not definitely known, Gen. Cadrona,
over the entire thirty-seven miles OF
the fighting front, has everywhere
made progress and the Austrians are
reported unofficially to be stripping
Irlest OF its valuables and moving
them to Vienna and other places.
East Of Riga the Russians have fall
Ell back before the enemy all along
the line from Ragged Fem on the
Gull OF Riga, through Turkum and
hammern to the upper stretches of
the River IA. Fighting is going on a
Scant twenty miles east of Riga in the
Lake Babit sector The German Off
clal communication, in announcing
German gains in this region, saws the
Russians evacuated positions without
offering battle previously having des-
troyed villages behind them.
To the south in Volhynia, the Ger
mans also have delivered attacks
against the Russians for gains of ter
ritory, but later were dislodged in
counter-attacks. In the Roumanian
theater the Russo-Roumanian troops
have taken the offensive in various
sectors or repulsed Teutonic allied
counter-attackS.
In Russia the political situation
again is to the fore. Petrograd news
papers take the pessimistic view that
unless an agreement between the con-
tending political groups is reached at
the approaching extraordinary nation
al council to be held at Moscow open
conflict must follow. The constitu-
ent assembly elections have been
