IDAHO IN GOOD ORDER
Deduction to be Made from the Draft
For Enlfstments in the National
Guard and Army

WASHINGTON-The first draft Of
Americas citizenship for military duty
will be 687, 900 men, the war deparr-
ment announces. This number is just
enough to fill the regular army to its
war complement, to fill the national
guard to war strength and to furnish
the first levy of 100000 men for the
national army
States providing their quota of the
militia and regulars will have rela-
lively fewer men to supply by draft
The regulations issued today base the
1evies on new population estimates,
with deductions for heavy enlistments
already made. Idaho and Oregon Will
be among the states profiting from the
deductions.
War department gossip has it that
there will be over 100000 men draft
ed in the first levy. The number is Of
ficially withheld.

ORGANIZE AT GENESEE
TO COMBAT r. w. w. MENACE
Farmers of that Section Take Action
to Protect Their Interest and
Uphold Order

At Genesee on Tuesday a meeting
was held when over 200 people were
present and organization was perfect
ed by the election Of T. Driscoll as
president; w. E. Smith, vice presi-
dent. and ". C. Burr, secretary. A
protective committee was formed
comprising ranchers in different sec
ticns of the Genesee territory, this
committee comprising A. A. Hay
inond, James Nelson. Arthur Linehan.
Albert Carbuhn. John H. Broemmel
ing, w. l. Patrick and Walter Jain.
Over 80 signed the membership
roll of the organization. It was ex-
planned that everybody might Join the
association but that the matter OF
military drill would be optional. The
plan is to organize {. military unit for
the purpose Of receiving military in
struction in order that they might
understand the mammal of arms and
be prepared to help protect crops and
buildings should the occasion arise.
There are some who did not full
understand this part Of the organiza-
ton, thinking perhaps they would be
under control of the government or
state and subject to call to co mill
tary duty outside Of this community,
bat such is not the case. 1t IS to be
purely a lodi organization and sub
iect to no state or federal authority
or control and its purpose is purely
for the purpose Of protecting crops
and property against the invasion
and interference Of those who would
undertake to GO damage in any way.

throughout this district report that
this years yield will show a great i'm
provement in both quality and IN
quantity. Some estimates are that the
crop this year will be four times as
great as it was a year ago. This de-

cranberry bogs grow better with age
