NEXT DRAFT QUOTA Will LEAVE
ON WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER THIRD
Third Contingent Will Comprise Forty Per Cent Of Counts Quota
Men Ordered to Report Preceding Day. Demonstration and
Program Planned Hour Of Departure Unknown

The next contingent of drafted men
from Valley county will leave for the
training camp at American Lake on
Wednesday, Oct. 3. Nothing definite
has been received by the local board
as to the exact time of departure,
but everything will be ready when the
order to entrain comes, be it early in
the morning or late at night.
To guard against any possible de-
lays, the local board has summoned
116 men to report at the court house
at 3 p. m. on Tuesday, October 2.
Notices were mailed yesterday to the
men in the call, and every one of them
should report without fail to the office
of the local board on the afternoon of
the second.
Owing to the delay in receiving the
list of men certified for service from
the district board, the local board
compiled the list of men who are
scheduled to go Wednesday from their
own records. Some of these may be
changed, however, and to guard
against shortage, fifteen alternates
will be summoned to report at a.
m. on Wednesday,. These men will
take the place of any of the others
who should be left out.
The men who go on Wednesday
should heed the warnings to the boys
in the other contingents and bring
their warm underclothing along with
them. The nights are cold at the
camp and there may be some delay in
securing government clothing. For
that reason, woolen shirts are better
than white shirts and collars. A few
toilet articles, razor, change of under
wear and an extra shirt are about all
the equipment man is expected to
take with him.
Nothing definite has been decided
about the farewell reception and pro-
gram on the day of departure, but it
is a safe prediction that this third
contingent will be given one of the
biggest send-offs that has ever been
accorded body of local soldiers.

the men who are summoned to appear
to go with the next increment fol-

this local board for military duty and

MONTANA LEADS WITH
RECRUITS FOR ARMY

Montana ranks first among the
states of the Union in contributing
recruits to the United States army,
and the liberality of the common
wealth in giving up not only the
greatest number of young men, but
the best type of recruits, will 60 down
in history. According to the figures
compiled ON recruiting, the Montana
men stand higher physically than
those from any other state.

part in this war will make big mark
for themselves is unquestioned. Wher-
ever Montana troops have been sta
toned, there has been nothing but
praise for the character and splendid
physique of the men who represent
the Treasure State.
The last draft contingent that left
Valley county were fine body of men.
And that they made big chit" when
they arrived at the mobilization camp
is shown by the following paragraph
which appeared in the Tacoma Tri-
bune, and which was headed "Montana
Men Lively"
"The most rampant spirit which has
so far been manifested by incoming
draft men was displayed Friday after
noon by trainload from Montana, the
members of which made the camp
ring with their shouted jests and
whoops. Even the events of the re-
cording process and infectious disease
examination which have a curiously
SOLDERING and even frightening effect
on most delegations, could not check
the Montana spirit"
A letter from one of the boys states
that they had a fine trip and
especially by the Red Cross society of
the city of Spokane. Here they were
given luncheon and fruit of all
kinds.
When they arrived at the camp, 10
men answered roll call, so none were
lost on the way. The boys are all
well pleased with the camp and speak
very highly of a Tacoma lady who
has presented each company barracks
with a phonograph and an assortment
of records.
The boys wish to thank the ladies
of the Glasgow Red Cross society and
the ladies of the Baptist church for
the fine luncheon which was served
on the day of departure. They are
also grateful to all others who did
something for them.
Most of the boys in the second in
crement are in Co. C. of the 362nd in
fantry. The first draft contingent
from this county went into Co. B. of
the 362nd infantry.
Orders to increase the size of the
army post at Camp Lewis and to make
extensive alterations to many Of the
present buildings have been received
by Major David L. Stone, constructing
quartermaster. While the details of
the plan were not announced definite
ly, it is understood that approximately
100 new buildings will be built. This
will include between 25 and 80 bar
racks, several of them the size of the
present 150-men barracks.
In several of the barracks now built
mess rooms will be converted into
sleeping quarters and additions will be
made to others. 1t will take two
months to complete the work. The
alterations are due to the increase in
the size of the companies since the
American Lake cantonment was
started.
Provisions will also be made for a
regiment of colored soldiers. The ma
chine gun battalions will be detached
from their regiments and collected
into separate regiments. Accommoda-
tions will be provided for a trench
mortar battery.

COST OF GROWING WHEAT

With Montana's average wheat crop
this year figured at eight bushels an
acre, it costs the grower S1.9O to raise
one bushel, according to a we'll known
Wheatland county farmer. He says
it costs not less than $500 an acre
this year, but says that in a normal
year the government price would in
sure good profit.
He itemizes the cost of raising an
acre of wheat as follows:

 And what has befallen mighty Eng land is d significant lesson to oursel- vos But for the spirit of unity among the British people which has caused them to stand shoulder to shoulder and devote their best energies to beat ing off the encroaching grasp of the gigantic foe there is hardly a doubt that England would today be tot toring to her fall And if we would not invite possible defeat and humila- tion we too must do as England's peo- pie have done
 strong as we are, wealthy as we are, We must still remember that our salva- ton lies in the preservation of unan- imity within our borders. We must realize that every resource of produc- tion and industry is required. that every artificc that our minds may con- ceive must be brought to bear on the war problem to spare us fate similar to that which has befallen Belgium and Serbia. We must learn that if we would not see the iron heel of ruth less anu amazingly powerful foe plant ed on our shores. if we would avoid seeing our cities demolished. our homes destroyed, our mother. wives and daughters raVishcd. our sons butchcred and our lands devastated. as Poland has been devastated. we must bring every energy to the task of assisting the government in it's present and fu- turc efforts to vanquish the foe before he can bring these things upon us.

It is not alone duty of good citizen ship but also the only guarant of personal safety. To be safe as individ- uals we must insure the national safe ty.

There was once Young woman who

that she was sick. unsuccessful and

Her friends used to say ii took cour-

her story in 'Harper's BaZar. until she

Then one day she read the story
of great naval disaster. when the
officers. knowing that their ship must
go down before the enemy. set the
band to playing. the flags TO dying,

white gloves on. waited to go down
with their ship. As she read the
story she suddenly grew ashamed of
herself. How had she met disaster?
Never with anything but tears and
complaints.

out TO see Il sick friend or to perform
some act of cheerful kindness.
