Paris.-In the principal theatre Of
operations ON the Polish front the
Poles are debouching from Demblin
and continuing their advance. They
have reached the valley of the Middle
Bug. The prisoners taken by the
Poles in the last few days aggregate
10000. The large amount of war
material has not been estimated.
Many guns, with their carriages, have
been abandoned in the forests.
The chief operations are now going
on on the fork of the Narew and Bug
rivers, from which the Bolshevik
troops, defeated before Warsaw, are
retiring hastily. The Polish army ad-
vancing in the direction of Ostrolenka
has as its objective the cutting Of
communications between the Bolshe-
Wiki center and right. Thus it is be-
tween Ostrolenka and Lomza, on the
marshy land bathed by the Narew,
that the enemy probably will make his
last effort before the fate of the red
army in the north, the situation of
which is extremely grave, is decided.
In imitation of the maneuver en-
ecuted in 1881 by Nicholas I, the Boil
sheviki have withdrawn strong Sec
ton of their forces to attack Thorn
and Wloclawek, across the Vistula,
and cut communications between Dan
zig and Warsaw. These troops have
encountered fresh Polish army
formed in Posnania and Pomerania,
which debouched from Graudenz and
Thorn. Meanwhile another army,
under direction of General Billotte,
advancing from Modlin, has attacked
them from the south. Finally third
army, under General Hikorski. is de-
Tending the Narew river, endeavoring
to cut off these troops from their
single road of retreat in the north.
Scattered over nearly 100 miles
along the frontier of East Prussia, be-
tween Strasbourg and Ostralenka,
these red forces seem condemned to
annihilation, unless they take refuge
on Prussian territory.

FREEDOM OF EGYPTPossIBLE
Negotiations Promised Soon Between
England and World Powers.

L0ndon.-NegOtiations incident to
the recognition of the independence of
Egypt by Great Britain will take place
between this country and the world
powers as soon as final agreement is
signed by the Egyptian and British
governments, says the London Times.
The final convention will be submitted
for confirmation to the British parlia-
ment and the Egyptian assembly.
1t is probable the latter body will e
asked to pass Il new organic law e. :

A treaty, described as principally de-

tween CZecho-Slovakia and Jugo-

soon will be followed by Rumana's

Probably one of the best recon-

is eaten by its producer. This is the
case with rabbit meat. In fact, the
furnishing of meat for the home table
should be the primary purpose Of any,
one engaging in the profitable and
growing occupation Of rabbit raising.
Breeding rabbits for commercial pur-
poses in the United States, is practi-
cally new business, which to many
persons seems surprising in view Of
the popularity of the rabbit meat in
European countries.
Production Steadily Increasing.
There has been disposition in this
country to look upon the rabbit merely
rs pet and not as a meat animal
suited for profitable ends. The rabbits
that did reach the American table
were wild ones shot during short
season of the year and shipped to q
market that was not overeager for
