 Connecticut: Fair tonight and Friday; frost tonight in the in- terior; moderate northwest to north winds.
 A long ridge of high pressure extending from upper Michigan southeastward to South Carolina is producing pleasant weather weather with unusually low tenn peratures for the season in the central and eastern districts. Snow was reported from northern New York and New England. The disturbance which was cen- tral over southern Texas yester- day morning has moved slowly northWard and is now central over Oklahoma. It is causing un- settled. showery weather between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi river. Freezing tenn peratures continue along the northern border.
 Conditions favor for this vfcin- fty fair weather with cool nights.

All over America men are going through the motions indicated in the photographs with the others that go to make up the American manual CT arms. Thousands must learn these things in order, military men are agreed, to fit themselves for service in the army. They are a necessary part of military training and discip- line.
 These regulations are uniform throughout the United States and are used in the training of regulars, sail ors national guardsmen, etc By uniformity possible confusion arising from conflicting regulations is avoid ed and men drilled in one part of the country have no difficulty in recogniz- ing and obeying orders when they are transferred to another section.
 The manual of arms helps material ly in improving tho physical condition of the soldiers, although the training of the body is not its primary purpose. For that end the@rerts have devised other exercises, which are known as setting up" drills.

BRIDGEPORT TO
 SUPPLY 700 TO SELECTIvE DRAFT

Bridgeports quota under the selec- five draft act, enacted by congress, will be approximately TOO. Announce made on Tuesday by Adjutant Gen. eral Cole requires the state of Con- nectict to furnish but 5000 men as against much larger proportions in other states. This low figure is be- Ieved to have been decided upon be- cause of the preponderance of raunf- ton making plants in Connecticut.
 Analysis of the se1ecttve draft based on the ad3utapt generals figure of 5000 means that Bridgeport vii fur nish of, the states allotment a num- ber in the same proportion to 5000 as the local population is to the state population.
 Ons the basis of the 1910 census figures which give the state a popu- lation of 1.114.475, the local quota of men with a ten per cent. margin for rs5ections of the physically unfit will mean 8 draft of approximately TOO men,

 Dear Doctor: One of our neighbors a disease which the local physicians pronounce to be smallpox, though in a mild form. One of the members of this family was hereea day or two before they were auarantined, and af- ter the patient had broken out Could we have taken the disease from him :? Another neighbours family was expos ed. It would not be possible for us to take it from them before they had 1t, would 1t? Can 1t be carried from place to place in the clothing of a person who has been exposed but has not the disease as yet? Will vaccin- nation after exposure prevent the dis ease in that particular case?
 MISS<B E
 (Answer) You ought to have the Home Health Club Book Vol. 2 and carefully read all that is given in it on the subject of Smallpox. It will give specific directions and answer in de- tail the questions you have asked.
 If all persons who have been ex- posed to Smallpox would sponge their bodies night and morning with hot, strong vinegar for few days after ex- posture they need have no fear of con tagion. All clothing worn when ex- posed should be put out in the sun and air, and such clothing as can be washed should be boiled The dis I>1 house in the clothing and it is best to use every precaution to prevent its spreading. The Home Health Club methods of prevention should be carefully followed. Vaccination will not prevent the party from having the Smallpox who has already been ex- posed if the disease is already in the system.
 Dear Doctor: Will you kindly tell me what food is best for Rheumatic person? have a friend who cannot drink buttermik and is very anxious to eat that which will diminish the acid in the blood. In the interest of an afflicted friend.
 {Answer.) A very good substitute for buttermilk is bran lemonade. Use perfectly clean bran and pour over 1t pure cold water; allow to stand for a |lfew minutes, drain off the water and add lemon juice and a little sugar. This makes a very paiatable as well as wholesome drink and good substi- ute for butternilk, although of course, it does not contain the nufri- tive elements that are in buttermilk. A rheumatic person should avoid all meats especially fats, eat an abun- dance of vegetables and fruits, fresh and canned, drink no tea or coffee at any time and chew all food thorough ly. A rigid adherence to this rule will in due time eradicate the acid tfrom the system.

COOPERATION IS ASKED IN
 TRANSPORTATION SERVICE
To Shippers and Receivers of Freight by Rail, Railroads Operating in Ari- Zona, and Others Interested:

The National Council of Defense calls attention to the necessity for lco-operation between all interests, to the end that full efficiency Of the trans portation unit (freight carl may he obtained.
 It is of general knowledge that there has existed, during the past year or
 more, serious shortage of freight cars, and that other railroad facilities have been taxed beyond their capacity
 call upon the railroads of the country for extraordinary and aditional ser vice in the movement of troops and supplies incident to the war. The prompt movement of food products and of commodities essential to the needs of the War Department is of pressing importance. Much can be done by the shipping public to aid in the expeditions movement of freight, and, wherever possible, loading cars to their maximum carrying capacity. Cars can be loaded ten per cent in excess of marked capacity. Mini
 mum loading would grealy reduce the
 number of cars necessary to move the tonnage now being handled. The prompt loading and unloading of cars will likewise increase the efficiency
 of the rail carriers. Frequently cars
 are held under load by consignees up
 to the full free time allowance, when in many cases they could be released
 much quicker. Similarly, shippers avail themselves of the full free time allowance in which to load cars in-
 stead of so arranging their affairs to load and forward more promptly. We feel sure that the shippers and receivers of freight in Arizona will lco-operate in these matters to the full 1 est extent.
 Respectfully submitted, F. 4. Jones.

LET FARMERS GET PROFITS

TUCSON, Ariz., June 25-In order to thwart the plans of food specula- tors who are seeking to contract far in advance for the grain crops of the state, farmers are being asked to avoid making such contracts and it is being pointed out to them that they might as well get the profit from the increase in food prices as the specula tor. In other words they are being shown that if it is a good thing for the speculator to buy up the crops. then it is good thing for the farmer to hold on to them and take the profit which the speculator would otherwise make.
 Fair profits to the farmer will en- courage food production this fall and next spring and will keep prices nor nal. If spectators succeed in tying up the grain crops, prices will be ab- normal and the farmer will not get the return he is entitled to.
 The Arizona Council of Defense is ported speculation in food produc- tions and pitiless publicity will be ap- piled to those who take advantage of the war situation to extort abnormal profits from the consumer.
