u. S. ARMY AND GUARD
Secretary Baker Announces
Purpose of Government.

WAsHIRGroN, July 6.-Secretary Baker
to-day made the first definite announce
ment of the intention OF the Government
to apply the first increment OF fighting
men obtained from seiective conscription
to filling out the ranks of the regular
army and the National Guard.
This announcement was coupled with
publication OF the most recent figures
for the recruiting OF tho National Guard
OF the last ten days OF June. The gain
between June 20 and June 30 was more
than $4,000 men. which brings the
strength OF the guard for the whole
country, with exact details still lacking,
189.717 enlisted men. The exact num-
Der Of officers for the entire guard Is
yet lacking. but is approximately 5000.
The present strength of the New York
National Guard, as reflected by the
statement to-day, 10 1874 officers and
24,Sb9 enlisted men outside the Federal
service; the gain over June 20 was SO
officers and Gil enlisted men. Already

LONDON. July s. - England is better
supplied with food than any of the coun-
tries of Europe, and the Government Is
taking notable steps to see that this ad-
yantageous position is maintained dur
ing the coming year. The immense home
production of potatoes is now coming
into the market. The Fooe Controller
has suspended the regulations requir-
ing that potatoes shall not be served
more than one day each week They
are now freely used.
Notwithstanding this fact. the Board
OF Agriculture has Issued an impressive
statement to the farmers declaring that
the absolute necessity exists for adding
great area to the cultivated acreage
for 1918. Arrangements will be made
to survey lands now used as pasturage.
which will be pleughed up for crops
designated by the Government.
The farmers are required to accept
the conditions laid down for them by the
Government or compulsion will be used
TO see that they do so. The spectacle is
thus brought in sight of the Government
telling the farmers exactly what they
must raise and compelling them to heed
the direction. An increase OF 5000. 200
acres must be made TO make England
self-supporting during the next year.

may buy merchandise orders in
our stores, payable to the or
der of THE SUN Tobacco

tribute as our share toward
