At the present time the status of affairs in that sector is considered by the Rus- slans as eatifactory. The Germans have been checked and their sphere of action is being narrowed con- stantly. Eastward along the line, to points beyond Dvinak, the Russians are suc- cessfully pressing the Germans, gain- ing ground in many_places. Their mest considerable success recently has been at Postavy. This town was taken and the Germans were driven westward through Duka in a fierce battle. In Galicia the Russians are follow- tng up their successes at Novo Alex- nites. It ts stated in reports from this region thet three German divis- fons were cut to pleces there. ‘The Russian authorities attribute their euccesses less to withdrawal of Germans for the Serbian campaign than to the vigor of the Russian at- tack.

TWO ‘NO MEAT’ DAYS ORDERED IN GERMA Novel Methods Are Adopted to Conserve the Supply of Food. BERLIN, Oct. 23.—Germany's food supply has suddenly become the mont ifmportant internal question of the day, the press devoting more space to butter, milk, eggs and meat than to war news. A beginning probably will be made next week to “stretch” the meat sup- ply along novel lines. There will be two no-meat days each week on which dealers will be forbidden to kind of meat or f posed wholly or partly of meat ingre. dients. On these days canned good may not even be displayed in windows. On two other days rea-| tauranta may not serve food fried or | ‘ise prepared with any fats, in- ing butter or lard. On o day—making five in all—the sale of pork is forbidden. pi a WILSON ON LONG AUTO RIDE.
