Writer Paints SorroWful Picture
of Trip From Lemberg

SWEPT THREE TINES BY WAR
Only Cites Were Spared, and They

impossible.

The dague.-Lemberg and Przemysl
how long It seems since our thoughts
were concentrated on those two Ga.
lictan towns In reality it is but a
few short months. To ride from Lem
berg to Przemysl today is to ride
through one huge, vast churchyard
Wherever you look you see graves.
There they lie in groups in the wilder
ness!
On some are transfixed a small gray
cap or German helmet, already rot
ting. On others the rough wooden
crosses are sinking into the ground,
as though they knew the plow would
soon be there. Sometimes you see
huge graves, from which many-colored
regimental flags wave vigorously
above the pitiful landscape. 1t is al
most as If someone were laughing in
the grave below The only break in
this terrible churchyard is formed by
some blackened. tumbled ground, once
village.
Such is the country over which the
fury of war has ragged three times.
Only cities have been spared, and have
recuperated with speed which would
seem almost impossible. Lemberg is
as gay and busy as ever; Przemysl is
once more the peaceful provincial
town of peace days. The streets are

ago horse-fillet was the best that
riches could buy, and only very occa-

town to sell chicken, for which $40
was gladly given. Winter clothes
were not to be had then, and rich men
did not hesitate to walk the streets
wrapped in some woman's cast-off
mantle.
In this war forts have fallen like
ninepins. To Przemysl alone has
fallen the honor of a long siege. To
the garrison fell hardships which the
siege of Paris did not know In the

BIG PRICE AT AUCTION.
Carroll County Farm Sells at Over Two
Hundred An Acre

IuHOTeo An acre.
Carroll, Aug. 4.-The August Stangl
farm in Eden township was sold to An
ton Klocke, of the same township, for
$211 per acre and at auction. The farm
has 200 acres, and under the conditions
Of the sale, in the settlement of the
Stangl estate. full payment of the pur-
chase price of $4,000 is required be-
fore the first of November. A spot pay
ment of $4,000 was made by the pur-
chaser.
The sale was made at public auction
and the entire business of the sale was
disposed of in less than an hour, in
Guiding an intermiSsiop of a few min
utes when the property reached the
5000 mark. The bidding started at $3.50.
The 1915 crops are not included in the
sale, nor is possession to be given I'M
til March l, 1917.
The farm ranks among the best in
the county, but the improvements are
not extensive or beyond the average of
the surrounding farms. There is not a
foot of waste land in it, however, and
the farm is in prime condition.
The sale is in settlement of the Aug
ust Stangl estate, division of which is
to be made between the widow and fif-
teen children, of whom there are six
under 10 years of age.
The farm is fourteen miles south of
Carroll and two and half miles south
and east of Templeton. The price runs
close to the record of land prices II,
Carroll county and is probably the
highest for transaction WIDELY for

ARMY OFFICERS ACCUSED OF
EFFORTS TO MAKE MILITIA
SERVICE UNPOPULAR.
POINT TO sLAckERs
ORDER AS EVIDENCE
Small Pay and Failure to Provide
Fare Back Home for Men With Do
pendent Families Taken as Added
Evidence That Regulars Hope to
XIII off State Organizations.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moincs, Aug 4.-Friends of the
National Guard here are declaring that
the war department at Washingt ton,
thru the influence of the regular army.
IS setting about to make the National
Guard SO unpopular with those who
are members Of it that dice out they
will not 80 into thu service again. II is
claimed that this is one of the most
effective ways of killing off the guard
and thus giving the whole army field
to the regular army.
The latest move here in Iowa bring
ing the cavalrymen who refused to take
the federal oath to Fort Des' Moines
and requiring them to do service down
or the border regardless Of whethe-
they take the federal oath or not is
cited as further evidence on the part Of
The war department to make the guard
unpopular. Then the small pay given
the men, the failure to provide trans
portation for them back home when
mustered out or honorably discharged
down at Brownsville, their failure to
equip the guard in anything like an
adequate manner these are some of the
things, guardsmen say, which will kin
the guard. Loyal and patriotic youn.
men do not like this sort of treatment.
Neither do they wish to become profess
sional soldiers and give up their life's
occupations.
Slackers Report.
Practically all of the members Of
troops A, B, c and D who refused to
take the federal oath and did not there
fore go to the border have reached Fort
Des MONIES in response to the call OF
the war department announced yester-
day. The troopers will be equipped at
Fort Des Moines and given a little pre-
liminary training and will then be sent
to the border, according to present
plans.
Inasmuch as they have not taken the
federal oath the men can't be sent into
Mexico, but the government can compel
them to serve anywhere in the United
States under the oath they took when
they joined the guard.

TAXES TO BE HIGHER.
Local Boards Blamed For Gsnsral In.
crease in Levy. 90

crease in Levy. ~
Des Moines, Aug. iowa property
owners are paying $50.05o,164 taxes
this year on an average tax levy OF
1896 mills according to a report filed
yesterday with the executive council
by f. S. Shaw, auditor Of state. This
is an increase in the average tax levy
OF 2.6S mills.
With reports from many parts Of
the state that school districts are in
tending to raise their demands for
funds, and that counties and town
ships will increase their levies. the
average tax over the state is expected
to advance beyond so mills for 1917.
The increase in the rate Of tax be-
ing collected this year is shown by
the records altho the state reduced
it's levy from 49, to As mills.
The increase is shown in the
amounts levied for school purposes.
Counties continued to demand big
funds for various purposes and in
creased many levies.
At this time when high taxation is
an issue in Iowa, the state officials call
attention to the fact that the cause
lies with the counties and townships.
Regardless of the fact that state taxes
went down this year, taxes on the av-
erage increased over the state.

NO WAY TO GET BoRERs OUT.
Clean Cultivation Earlier Would Have
Kent Them Down.

Once common stalk borer is In a
stalk of corn, there is no practical way
of getting rid of it, says r. L. Webster,
entomologist of the Iowa experiment
station at Ames, in answer to many
reports of injury to corn by this in
sect that have been coming to him
from all parts Of Iowa.
This insect bores in stalks of corn,
oats. wheat, as well as many garden
plants and even Towering plants and
weeds. There is only one generation,
however, so there is no danger of con-
tinuous damage thru the season. Once
in a stalk, there is no way to get it
out.
Clean cultivation earlier in the sea-
son would have done much toward con-
trolling the stalk borer by keeping
down the weeds and grasses in which
they breed. Usually injury is worst
along the margin Of the field, along
fence rows, where the stalk borers
breed.
