Recruits for Militia.

In order to continue recruiting for
the Ohio National Guard throughout
the state, officers were arranging to
assign men from the different regi
ments to visit all localities in the
state to conduct a campaign to get en-
listments. These men will take the
place of the II who were discharged
after being mustered in for recruiting
duty. They were men who had been
rejected from the service on account
of slight physical disabilities, but
were thought to be fit for recruiting
work. The order to discharge them
reversed previous order that they
should be mustered in, camp officers
said. The mobilization camp was
quiet. Commanding officers predicted
that it would be at least two weeks
before any troops are given orders to
move. Preparation for election leave
for Ohio National Gbardsmen was un,
der way, following the announcement
by Brigadier General William " Nc
Maken, camp commander, that provi-
sion would be made for most of the
men to leave camp if they desired to
exercise their right of franchise The
Third Regiment is gleeful. Through
the efforts of Colonel R. L. Huber
$4,000 pay foc June was procured and
precedent was established by the pay,
ment of troops on Sunday. Colonel
! Huber proposed to borrow the money
to pay the men at once from business
men in Dayton if the Quartermaster'
Department could not procure the
funds because of technicalities which
were holding UP the pay.

Trying to Save Howard.

Cow Frank B. Willis intends to
make strenuous efforts to prevent the
disqualification of Col. Lloyd W. How
ard, of Toledo, by federal medical Off
GERS on duty at Camp Willis. The in
dicatiOns point to determined clash
of authority if the War Department
insists on it's decision to cause Col.
Howard's rejection for disabilities.
Col. Howard has been an officer in
the Ohio National Guard for more
than 20 years and has continuous
service record of nearly 80 years, and
the contention is that he is not dist
qualified save in a purely technical
sense. When first examined he was
rejected temporarily for hernia. 1t is
claimed at that time Col. Howard and
Gov. Willis had positive assurance
that If an operation reduced the hernia
there would be no further objections.
With the understanding Col. Howard
went to q hospital and had an opera
ton performed that was successful in
disposing of the hernia. Then came

cooperative Creameries Show
Tremendous Increase 10
Butter Production.

The Dairy Commissioner, at first an
nual convention of Saskatchewan
Dairymen's association, reviewed pro
gress Of 1915 which shows a great In
crease in the butter production Of the
cooperative creameries amounting b
100000 lbs. He also said the i'm
provement in quality is shown by the
preference accorded Saskatchewan
butter in outside markets. Shipments
out of the province for the year to-
tailed 80 carloads.
According to bulletin just issued bE
the Manitoba department of agricul-
ture, the dairy industry had a very
successful year in 1915. There was N
increase of over 100000 lbs. of cream
cry butter produced, as against ths
previous year, about 100000 lbs. IN
crease in dairy butter and over 25,00o
lbs. increase in the cheese output. The
increase of the total value of milk and
milk products was over $427, ,000 The
production of dairy butter for Mani
toba during the year was 4, ,150, ,444 lb9s
and 1t brought an average price of 28c
per h.; of creamery butter $3.50, ,669
lbs. were produced which commanded
29c per Id. on the average; cheese pro-
duction was 726, ,725 lbs. which sold at
an average price of 15c-the total
value of these three products is given
as %, 2,760,698, in addition to which ths
milk produced is valued at $925,6b0
and the cream at $158,827, the aver1uu
price of the milk being reekoned %
21c per ID. and of sweet cream at 82a
per lb. butter-fat. In connection with
the dairy industry it is interesting 10
note that almost the most important
fodder crop now is corn, of which the
1915 production amounted to 190,1S2
tons. The biggest cultivated fodder
crop is timothy which for last seasoM
produced 193,357 tons and the next
most popular crop was bronze grass
with 45,815 tons: of alfalfa and cloves
there were produced some ces.00c tons.
The number of cattle in the provinces
is given as 6S1, ,005, which is an IN
crease of 10000 over the previous
year.

Western Union Newspaper News Service.
Columbus.-If the state of Ohio is
not called upon finally to pay con-
siderable part of the expenses con-
nected with the building of Camp Will
Lis, many officials of the War Depart
ment at Washington will be surprised.
There appears to be a great difference
Of opinion existing between the high
er officials of the War Department
and those who actually handle the
business of the Department. Secre-
tary of War Baker and Major General
Mills, chief of the Division of Militia
Affairs, believe that the Federal Gov
ernment should pay the Camp Willis
bills, subject to the auditing and in
spection of the Central Department.
The minor officers familiar with the
obligations Incurred at Camp Willis
suggest that the inspection of ac-
counts by the Central Department
will throw back upon the state a con-
siderable part of the total expendi-
ture. They base this assumption on
the size Of some of the items, which,
20 far, they have been Unable to re-
concile with the requirements of a
temporary camp. The sum of $4,000
said to havs been spent for roads and
an equal sum for sewers chiefly have
aroused speculation.
War Department officials are not
yet informed whether the S1,500,000
provided in the army appropriation
bill for the payment of mobilization
camp expenses will be sufficient, but
they expect the sum to be more thar
ample. Reports have not been re
ceived in sufficient number from the
| various states to indicate what the
total may be- Unofficial information
indicates, however, that in most o
the states only few thousand dollar!
were spent.

Drought Hard on Growing Crops.

Drought Hard on Growing Crops.
While the small showers that
fell over much of Ohio last week
gave some relief, the seriousness
of the situation from the state
ment made by the State Board of Ag-
riculture in its report Of crop condi-
tions as of August /. ''The continued
drought" it says, sis affecting very
unfavorahly all growing crops. Some
local showers occurred but were not
sufficient for any material improve
ment. Corn, potatoes, pastures, tobac-
co and garden truck are suffering bad
ly and unless rain comes soon, these
crops will be very light. Water is get
ting scarce"
While prices in all parts Of the state
are shown to be high, the crops gen
orally are poor, owing to unfavorable
weather conditions. OF them, the
board says:
1.-THE wheat harvest is far enough
advanced that an estimate of the yield
may be made with approximate cor
rectness. Correspondents of this de
partment estimate the production al
70 per cent, compared with a norma,
production Of Is bushels per acre
The estimated acreage harvested was
1,577,352 acres. Total production
should be approximately 16,562,19t
bushels, being 19,468,O42 bushels shor
of 1915 crop.
"Oats show a decrease of 2 per cen
in prospect compared with estimate o
one month ago. The outlook is mos
discouraging. The severe drought ha'
cut the crop short.
