French military observers were convinced that yestorda ‘s series of six raids, coinciding wi the first day oi’ the King's visit t0 the British expeditionary forces, mark- ed the culminating effort of an abortive German attempt to probe Allied positions along the length of the western front.

Potatoes Bring Million To island Farms Potato shipments this Yell‘ h!" far exceeded those of last year and it is expected that about 81,000,000 revenue will come to this Province in return for the large crop sold. Local dealers have been forced to discontinue buying due to the diffi- culty of chartering ships to export the tubers and finding ready mar- kets for the large supply. Warehouses are abundantly stock- ed at pres-am and it is expected that all the crop will be moved be- fore the Harbors become frozen over. Although new charters are out of the question, a number of boats have already been chartered and a shipment will leave sometime next week. All the potatoes should be marketed by the end of the month, a local dealer said last night. There is e. free movement in table stock, however. and most of this crop will be consumed by the Canadian market. There was not much evidence of farmers holding back on this year's market. A free movement of the tubers took place during the fall season.
