draft lists. After existing guard forces
are taken into the Federal service, the
additional units heretofore authorized
will be raised.
In order to bring their organizations
10 full strength, the Third Regiment
needs 100. Troops A and B, $50, and
the First Separate Battalion, 800 re-
cruits.
As an average of only six men daily
have been joining the guard for many
days past, It would prove impossible TO
raise the forces TO war strength by the
date they are to be mustered into Fed
eraI service unless the draft list is re-
sorted to.
With respect to the First Separate
Battalion, 1t is not expected that much
difficulty will be experienced in getting
the requisite recruits. This unit has on
its waiting list about sixty men, for
whom waivers" can be asked at any
time. They failed to meet the REQUIRE
ments by being about one-half inch short

What extent of ground would such
an army cover? Just 1,O50 miles.
This is $50 miles, roughly, greater
than the distance between New York
and Chicago. Marching by fours, in
the regular military alignment, this
vast army, with horses and mules,
cannon and escort wagons, pontoons
and hospital trains, would stretch
fully a third of the way across the
United States.
Figured according to army tables,
such body of troops would require
511, 800 animals and 61,380 vehicles,
including guns. If they made one
great camp, it would cover 23,947
acres. or SO square miles.

Mr.. Ruppel from South Dakota, is
visiting his brother Fred Ruppel of
Tampico. He reports crop prospects
quite good there.
Bill Peters and wife and A. c.

They got quite few, despite the hot,
dry weather.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. T. Layne and chill

Brunt Hammer and Luther Byer are

We are certainly having dry, hot
weather. Old timers say it's the hot
test and dryest time they've had in
many years.
Miss Eva Jacobson and niece, Miss
Mildred Brassett, were shopping in
Glasgow, Saturday.
We understand there will be no fair
this year on account of the drought.
Well, if crops, gardens, etc., don't
look any better than wheat we've seen
this year, it would be better to have
no fair than to make an unsuccessful
attempt at it, for great deal of the
praise and boom of this country comes
through the county fairs.
Messrs. Fred Ruppel and brother
from S. D., and Hiram Layne autoed
up in the north country one day last
week to look at that country. They
report crop conditions bad there, too,
on account of the hot dry weather.
Bill Peters is building log chick
en- house.
Dick McCune went to Glasgow last
Saturday, and while there enlisted as
soldier, passed the examination and
left Monday for Helena, thence to Ft
Harrison. We hope to see Mr.. Nc
Cune again, and further, trust that
the terrible war will be over before
; his services are needed. Edwin Jacob
son will take care of his crop and
other belongings during his absence.
Mrs. A. c. Vertz was among the
Glasgow visitors Saturday.
Nearly every one around here cele-
brated the Fourth in Glasgow, and all
, report an exceptionally fine time.
Mr.. Roy Hart from Glasgow is as.
sisting j. L. Byer in building his

it's about as dry down there as it il

NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS

On August fifth a special election
will be held for the purpose Of sub
mitting to the people the question OF
issuing bonds to pay for certain i'm
provements and changes which the
city council deem absolutely necessary
for the best interests of the city.
Only qualified property owners in
the city are entitled to register and
vote at this election.
The city is growing, and at such a
rapid rate, that it is impossible to
keep pace with the changes and i'm
provements which become necessary
under such conditions. But by doing
a little each year and making plans
for the future, the problem can bt
solved.
Read for yourself the data on tn
question which will be submitted, il
order that you may know for yoursel
what is to be done.

FIGURES ON BIG ARMY

Estimates of the probable size Of
the United States army that will be
raised for the present war range from
1,OOO,OO to 100000 men. By split
ting the difference between the two
estimates the sum of 100000 men
may be used as a basis for calcula-
tion. Now what does an army of
100000 men really mean?
Such an army would embrace near
ly five times as many American SOL
diers as were needed to win the war
of independence. It would equal
nearly three times the total number
of United States troops engaged in
the war of 1912 and would exceed by
nearly 100000 the number Of United

WORTH TRYING FOR

On another page Of this issue is an
article by D. S. Williams of the city
schools, outlining State Superintend-
ent Trumper's plan relating to nor

If Glasgow can show sufficient
number of students who will take
this course, the local high school will
receive state aid to defray the ex-
penses.
All students who have been con-
templating going to a normal school,
or all interested in the proposition
should get in touch at once with Prof
Williams or County Superintendent
Miss Johonnot.
If we can't have normal school, il
certainly is worth the effort to gel
