A despatch from London says: While British and French airmen con- tinue their bombing operations against Germany’s submarine base at Zee- brug‘ge and points of\military import- ance behind the lines, the French aviators are keeping up their attacks on German towns and cities, in re- prisal for shelling by German aircraft of the open town of Bar-le-ljuc. More than 15,000 pounds of explosives are imported to have been dropped on numerous German settlements, among them the famous town of Baden, famed as a health resort. U. S.

The attack was delivered with all the wonted dash of previous ofi'ensives and swiftly the Brigishers took posi- tions that had been marked out for them. some of them to a depth of more than a mile. The main ridge of the ,heights running north and south to the east of Ypres, which affords a dominating point for the launching of future attacks, is nearly all in their “To-day ié one of the great days in army annals. The victory is being proclaimed as one of the greatest since the Marne." The Renter correspondent at Britâ€" ish headquarters in Fraffce says: A despatch from London says: The anticipated renewal of Field Marshal Haig's big offensive in Flanders has begun, and all the objectives of the first day have been won and held. Like the preceding attacks, the latest one was timed to the minute. The British forces at the given signal at daylight swarmed from their trenches over ground that had been harrowed by myraids of shells from the great ar- ray of artillery, and all along the front of more than eight miles, from south of Tower Hamlets to the north of Langemarck, they made notable new gains of terrain, inflicted heavy cas-‘ ualties on the Germans, while them-‘ selves suffering slight losses, and took1 many prisoners, large numbers of‘ whom gladly surrendered. i BRITISH CAPTURE STRATEGIC POSITIONS Markets 0f the WWWIIJLELL‘” COMMANDING FLARDERS PLAIN!

A despatch from Washington says: (â€"Such remarkable progress has been made in the quick building of the im- mense flotilla of America destroyers to cope with the submarine campaign that the Navy Department now is as- sured of much quicker delivery of the ships than was contemplated at the last estimate, which in itself was far ahead of the original time‘ Progress on the ships now building and arrange- mentS‘xfor others to follow, it is said at the Navy Department, are such that the American navy will lead the world with its destroyers within eighteen months. It is now certain that all destroyers now building will be delivered ready for duty in European waters early next year. Many of then had not been expected until the winter of 1918. Approximately, ten months had been saved. “Within a fortnight we have struck the enemy in Flanders three stagger- ing blows in a very vital spot, bent him back reeling about three miles, mostly uphill. “Five of these counterâ€"attacks were made against a short front to the north of the Yprequenin road, being broken up by artillery. Three were delivered against our new positions near Reutel. Two of these were beaten back, but the third advanced in great strength late in the afternoon bending back our line slightly, neces- sitating, however, only a trifling mod- ification of the front, which has ab- solutely no bear-ng on the general tactical results achieved. “Within a fortnight we have struck the enemy in Flanders three stagger- ing blows in a verv vital snot. bent Country Produceâ€"Wholesale Butterâ€"Creamery solids. per 11).. 41! to 42c; priins. per 11)., 42 to «like; dairw per 1b.. 35 to 360.

A fur- ther regulation compels the railroad companies to observe a rate of speed that saves coal. The decreased speed rule is credited with surprising re- sults.

PETER AND ST. PAUL 1_-_i n.1, ,.. 1 A .11.-..-L..L a despatch I .from Winter wheat. A despatch from Ottawa says: After November 1 the net profits of Canadain millers will be limited to a maximum average of 25 cents on the milling of sufficient wheat to make a barrel of flour of 196 pounds and the ofi‘als produced in connection with such milling. ‘ Hon. W. J. Hanna, Food Control- Ier, made this announcement on Fri- day night, as the outcome of several conferences with representatives of all branches of the milling trade. Every mill with a capacity of 100 bar- rels of flour or more per day must take out a license from the Food Con- troller. The licensing will be optional with the mills with a capacity betWeen 50 and 100 barrels per day. Every li« censed establishment must submit each month a detailed sworn state- ment of costs of manufacture and profits on sales. Failure to comply with any of the\regulations may re- sult in suspensign or cancelation of license. Mr. Hanna also stated that he would select and approve three standard grades of flour and that all licensed mills wouch be required to manufac- ture and sell one or more of these standard grades. One will be a flour made from Manitoba Spring wheat; the second will be a blended flourf from a mixture of‘ Manitoba Spring wheat and Ontario Winter wheat; while the third will be made entirely The standard grades Will be of first-class quality‘ suited to all purposes, and will repre- sent a higher percentage extraction than the white flour now in general use in Canada. For them maximum cash prices will be set from time to time. Such prices will be f.o.b. cars on track at point of delivery or the equivalent at point 0f origin. 39.1w [0 ML“: cam to $5.50; milkex‘s, g. :125; do.. com. and ringers. $90 to $125 $11.50; sheep. he: yearlings. $11 to 2 choice. $16 to $15 :16 to $17; hogs” e '25; ('10., wéighedha )., $17.76. . 631.

A despatch from British Headquar- ters in France, says-kâ€"There was an unusual feature in the battle near Zonnebeke. Three German divisions had been ordered to retake the line the British captured here last week. The attack was set for six o’clock. The Germans were caught in the British barrage as they were preparing to push forward, and lost grievously. Once before, in August, around Lens, the British and Germans planned an attack at the same hour, and Canadian troops going over the top and advanc- ing quickly, came upon masses of Get- mans moving toward them in the thick haze, and a few minutes later the Ger- mans were making their last stand on theparapet of their trenches. One regiment from the Russian front caused a panic bf shouting; “The English are on us,” and bolting. from B say “In the area immediately north of the Menin Road, where a few of the enemy succeeded in passing through the barrage, they were completely re- pulsed by our\ infantry.
