What the outcome will be remains to be see. The situation a one that effete avery 'newspaper reader, since 'unlese relief is obtained the publishers muet ;advance their prices or else go out of business.

The newspaper is a very siecessary pare of our daily life and /enters icleeeev in relationship With tee progress of the 'country. Only when it becomes absolutely essential will the gttiblishers advance rates.

When allied artillery, at the begin- ning of the Somme assault, demon- strated the pregnability of all kinds of defensive fortifications on the sur- face of the eartb, the Germans began placing their reliance on eaves, cel- lars, and uadeeground worts.

'LONDON, Oct. 31.—In. the fighting at the bend of the Cerna River in Macedonia the Serbians and the French have made fresh progress, ad- vancing and. taking trenches in places in loeal encounters, repulsing Bul- garia counter-attacks, taking a num- ber of machine guns aad some score of prisoners.- The French in the einity of the Cerna have captured Gardilovo Village' and a system of Bulgarian trenches between Kemal and the Cerna..

The Roumanians have wore a victory in the Prahovo valley to the north-east, where two attacks by von, Falkenbaynes armies were repulsed. An advance was also made on the • Roumanian left wing, Berlin claims that south-east of Botherahurm Pas$ several Rouumenan positions were taken by storm, giaing the Teatena possession, of the dominating heights. of the neighborhood, Another 700 prisoners were taken. The fact is admitted that south-west of the Szurduk Pass the Roumanians have forced the Austro -German columns to fall back. In this region the Roumanians have strong points of sapport la the large towns of Braila, Galatz and Reni, to the north-west, on the other side of the Danube, whence reinforce- ments and supplies can be easily transported across the river. It was from Tteni, at the bend. of the Dan- ube, that the Russians entered the Dobrudja to aid the Roumanians when the latter declared war. They crossed the river on pontoon bridges, which doubtless by this time have been strengthened for the passage of heavy artillery, which seems to be the chief need of the army opposing Field Marshal von Mackensen. Three good railroads reach the cities men- tioned—from Czernowitz, Kishineff, and. Bucharest—and it is safe to say that over all of them trains full of munitions and troops are now :peed- ing to the Dobrudja corner. Mackensen is meeting with little resistance. The allied command, it is believed, is willing to fall back steadily toward the Bessarabian Their chief concern is to elude en- veloping moves. Sofia reports the capture of 500 ad- ditional prisoners, including some Russian telegraph operators. The Russo -Roumanian army in the Dobrudja is retreating towards the pontoon bridges across the Dan- ube from Hirsova, northward to Tult- cha and Isakcba, near the mouth of the river, according to Sunday's Bul- garian War Office statement. The Bulgarians have destroyed the bridge at Hirsova and the advanced guard on the eastern wing has reached the region of Babadagh, any miles north of Constanza. Will ?slake Paper From Wood Chips. WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.—As the a result of studies which have beenl made at the Forest Products Labor- atory on methods of handling wood chips suitable for paper pulp, it is announced that Wisconsin paper companies are now negotiating witri, the railroads for shipment to their factories of experimental trainloads of chips of Western woods adapted to paper making. Previous investigations by the For- est Service have demonstrated that good grades of paper can be made! from a number of Western woods. The experts now estimate that some of these woods, when cut into chips and dried and baled, can be deliver- ed to the mills in Wisconsin at a very; small advance over the cost of chipel made from local timber. In. Wiscon- sin alone, it is stated, there is an an- nual market for over 600,000 cords of pulpwood. Russia's Resources Ample. PETROGRAD, Oct. 31.—The Mine ister of the Inteeicr, H.
