100000 mark today and headed for
the $5,OO0,000,OO0 maximum with
every indication that by continuation
of the relentless campaign the latter
figure would lbe realized when the
books close Saturday. Although un-
official estimates from the IL fed

figure, officials tonight expressed
the conviction that subscriptions
were past the SO ,50O,OOO,OOO mark.

reserve bank headquarters, the to-

FARMERS FORM A
COOPERATIVE CLUB
PURPOSE TO ARRANGE SOME
FEASIBLE PLAN OF MARKET
ING THEIR CROPS.

Nearly sixty farmers of Terrell
county were present Friday at a
meeting held in Dawson for the pur-
pose of discussing the question of
storing and marketing the various
farm crops.
Every one present was enthusiast
ic, showing full realization that the
farmers must now cooperate and
pull together both in the buying and
selling of the commodities grown by
them.
Several talks were made by prom
inent farmers, emphasizing the need
of storage facilities, both public and
individual, since with the changing
from the one-crop system of cotton
the bulk of the harvest will not only
be larger, but will require better
storage.
Following a temporary organiza-
ton the Terrell County Farmers CO.
Operative Association was formally
organized with Dr. J. G. Dean as
chairman and Mr. George A. Gibson
secretary and treasurer.
By vote of the meeting the chair
man was authorized to appoint a COM
mittee composed of W. S. Thornton
and H. 7. Bridges, with the chairman
and secretary as members, to thor
oughly investigate all matters con-
nected with the sale or marketing of
farm products, the organization of
a bonded warehouse, or offer plan
suited to present conditions, and re-
port in full on next Friday morning
at the meeting to be held at the court
house at ten o'clock, when every
farmer in the county is urgently re-
quested to be present.

SEEMS HARDLY POSSIBLE TO
GET QUOTA FROM FIRST CALL
ONLY FORTY-ONE PROVED TO
BE PHYSICALLY FIT WHO OF
FERED NO CLAIM FOR EXEMP-
TON OR DISCHARGE.

Following the call and examination
by the local exemption board for the
first 800 men drafted by the con-
scription act, a second call will be
necessary to fill the required quota
for Terrell county.
Eighty-six men were discharged for
physical disability, though some are
subject to being re-eXamined since
the receipt of more information from
the adiutant general as well as The
fact that many we're only TEMPORARY
" exempted. Claims for exemption
have been filed by 121, while others
have designated their intention of do
ing so before the allotted time passes
for the filing of same. Thirty-seven
men did not answer to their names
for exemption. These men did not
appear for various reasons. Some
were known to be too i'll to be exam
ined: others are known to have al
ready enlisted in some branch of the
government service. The remaining
number will have to be investigated
to learn why they did not report for
examination. So out of the 800
names drawn for the first examina-
ton it will be seen that if the board
grants anything like fair per cent.
of the exemption claims filed there
will still be a good number of men
left to don the United States army
uniform.
At present there are Al who will
soon receive their order to report
since they have neither been exempt
ed or discharged, being physically fit
as well as not asking an exemption.
1t was estimated this morning that
at least three hundred additional
names will have to be called, and
many claim that this will not be near
enough, if the exemption claims are,
anything like good ones.
