Washington, July 9.-Oficial an
nouncement was made on Saturday
that the National Guard of Illinois

the United States 'on July 20, two
weeks from next Wednesday.
Indiana's. National Guard will be

Iowa will be called In on July 10.
A plan to maintain the present rela-
tive rank of National Guard officers
after they have been sworn into feder-
al service is under advisement, but
has not yet been officially approved.
This plan takes advantage of the legal
distinction between calling" and
drafting into federal service.
The three dates originally announced
July Is, July % and August 5-will
be utilized in bringing the guard into
national service.
The war department has put ont a
definite call for more men between the

examined.
By device similar to the jury
wheel, registration cards in red ink
are to be drawn in every county or
city jurisdiction. Then the numbers,
in the order in which they have been
drawn, will be published in all news
papers and posted in every local board.
The names of registrants exempted or
discharged will be subsequently posted.
Those claiming exemption for agri-
cultural or industrial work, will have
five days after the posting in which to

Washington, June 9.-The fate of
9,649, 1888 men on the national army reg
istration rolls will be held in huge
glass bowl filed with little gelatin cap
sules. The numbers on paper squares
in each of these capsules will designate

A final plan of the unique method of

is before Secretary Baker.
Unless shift is made in present ar

capsules will be drawn at random from
the globe Each slip indicates for draft
every man bearing that number in each

has settled upon this method as the
fairest that can be devised. The draw

room in the war department. A com

Officials assert that the draft may be
delayed through this week by resigna'

Although the German contingent was
larger, more daring, more deliberate in
its movements, and descended much
lower than on the visit of June 13, the
number of killed and wounded was, ac-
cOrding to the first official roll, roughly
one-third the previous casualty list.
Eleven German airplanes were
downed. One was felled at the mouth
of the Thames and three over the
North sea. Seven others, although not
surely part of the raiding squadron,
were destroyed by British aviators
from Dunkirk, who, warned of the
raid, had risen to intercept the raiders
on thier way home.

FARM LABOR SCARCE
But Farmers Are Getting in Large
Crops Notwithstanding.

East Grand Forks, May 12-Farm
labor is exceptionally scarce in the
territory adjacent to East Grand
Forks, according to reports reaching
local bankers and real estate men.
Many farmers are putting in their en-
tire crops with only the aid of their
own families. 1t is stated, however,
that seeding operations are progressing
nicely.
The closing of East Grand Forks and
Crookston saloons, which withdrew the
two cities from the maps of many
wanderers, has kept many men from
this section.
