Petrograd, Nov. 24.-Russla
this fall is enjoying the greatest
caviar feast in many years. War,
revolution, famine and lack Of
vail transportation interfered
greatly with the caviar industry,
but it is now going again, as iu
the old days, and the delicacy is
on sale in many shonc in the cit
les, and in the village stores as
well, even in the famine areas.
While in Paris, London and
Berlin caviar continues a great
luxury, costing a dollar or so a
smack, here it is doled out to all
comers for about dollar, or it's
equivalent in Bolshevik roubles,
a pound for the freshnest and

for fifty cents a pound, and
