Issues Special Ruling on Subject.

Iowa farmers whose services are re-
quired to gather crops. but who are
drafted for the first army will be per-
mitted to remain upon the farms until
late in September, by Instructions soon
to be sent out from Washington.
The provost marshal general has
made ruling which will permit local
boards to exercise their discretion in
calling out farmers for the first con-
tingents at the cantonments, end will
authorize the exemption boards to use
their own judgment in this respect.
1t has already been announced that
about third of the members of the
first army will be subject to call on
Sept. /. This one-third is to- be select
ed from the entire quota in each dis
trict by the board for that district. !.
Local Boards Pick Men.
For instance, in Polk county the first
call will be for about seventy men OUT
side of Des Moines. The board will
have discretion to pick whatever men
1T believes can be spared on that date,
and may reserve others to be called
into active service at later date.
This ruling will be Of some value In
Iowa, but. will not entirely permit draft
ed men to stay at home until the corn
is all husked, which often does not
come until after snow flies. 1t will,
however, result in q great relief in la
Dor conditions during the month OF
September.
Crowders Ruling.
The ruling on this subject issued by
Provost Marshal General Crowder is as
follows
Under presidential regulations, sec
ton As, providing that certificates OF
discharge on the ground of Industrial
necessity may be temporary only, at
tention is called to the needlessness OF
using such certificates CForm 1922 for
men whose services are required in
gathering the fall crops. Such necessity
may be imperative, but is only temper
airy.
'Its termination will vary in the va
rious regions and for the different
crops, but can hardly continue beyond
the third or fourth week of September.

Not Al Called at Once.
THE adjutant general will notify
each local board to summon say 20
per cent of its quota fora certain date,
another percentage for later date,
and so on. Each local board will select
the individuals who shall form the Sue
cessiva contingents to be called.
"The local boards will have received
from tie district board (see below 81
list of men who have presented claims
for temporary discharge on the ground
of necessity to gather crops. Certificates
of discharge will not have been issued
in such case: but the local board, on
examining the papers concerning such
claims, will be enabled. If 1t deems tit

dates fixed by the adjutant general.
TO Remain at Crop WORK.
"Thus the temporary need Of leaving
these men at the crop work will be sat-
isfied without complicating or dimine
ishing the quota accounts by carrying
those men as discharged temporarily
"F'or this reason 1t ID recommended
that certificates Of temporary discharge
be not given on the ground Of crop
work, unless IN exceptional cases.
District boards, however, are in.
structed to list the persons claiming
temporary discharge on the above
ground, and to certify them to the
respective local boards with a note
showing the above claim to have been
made and disallowed, so that the local
board will thus be supplied with the
information needed by them in post
poning such men to later calls in the
manner above described

bone dry law again. Yesterday after
noon in company with Deputy Sheriff

Lappe and secured a large haul OF
booze.
Lappe left Carroll about Sunday
night in a car for. points unknown

pected that he had started out fot
business rather than pleasure. Several
days later he returned. He drove to
his mothers boarding house on the
south side and stopped the car. the
marshal was there waiting for him ana
showed the search warrant. but Lappe
ran into the house and Manneman pro-
ceeded to search the car He found il
was a. bigger job than he had looked
for. Booze Of every description was
hidden in every part Of the car. II
was under the cushions Of both front
and back seats, III the toe! boy. under
the hood and even under the hooring
OF the car. After counting his haul
he found he had sixty three quarts OF
wi,isney ana a!netv-three Quarts OF
beer.
The next thing to be done was to
find the man. Deputy Sheriff Hinze
had been watching the house while the
car was being searched and knew
Lappe was in there somewhere. The
two officers waited a time until
woman's voice called to Fred to come
out as the officers were gone. That
was the cue for. Manneman and he
went in to get the man. After search
ing over the whole house he found him
in the darkest corner Of the cellar and
brought him out.

U. 6. FACES SHORTAGE OF HORS.
ES AND MULES.

Washington, May 2-(By Union As
ISOLATED Press)-However much the
United States may be able to help the
Allies in the matter of money and food
representatives Of the Entente nation
now visiting this country will be given
to understand that having sent its
best horses and mules to European
battlefelds, for the last three years
for service with the Allies, the United
States today finds itself in times of
its own necessity amid a scarcity Of
available animals for war service.
Government agents who have been
securing the West for several weeks
have been unable to secure any num-
Der Of horses and mules which come
to the army standards. Where form
erly market places were over-crowded
with spirited, dashing horses and big
strong mules, only overheavy draft
horses and others Of practically no
use for cavalry service can be purch-
ased and these are being held at war
time figures. In many marketing
centers no animals are to be had at
all.

Evle creene's Ghost story.

Miss Evie Greene, the musical COM
edy fayorite who has Just died. used
to tell a story about a ghost which she
firmly believed she had seen, says
London Tit.Bits. The London corre-
spondent Of the Sheffield Daily Tele'
graph says the vision was at Sunder-
land, when she was playing principal
boy In a pantomime.
Miss Greene was lodging In a fish
arman's cottage, and one night. when
she and some girls from the panto-
mime were going to her ooms for sup
Der, there overlook them on the stairs
the transparent figure Of a little sailor
lad, his arms raised, his eyes closed
and his body dripping with water.
The figure hurried up to the attic
Of the cottage, and Miss Greene and
her companions ran trembling into the
nearest room. Afterwards they went
oil over the house, but could discover
40 trace Of the visitor.
Next thing Miss Greene found her
landlady grief-stricken. She had Just
received a telegraph from the owners
Of a ship In which her boy had sailed
saying that the vessel had been lost
with all hands.
