Of potatoes Monday morning, and
Mishawaka housewives made merry
over the fact. This seasons home
grown were offered freely at $50
per bushel, while in Elkhart they
were selling at $1.2O. Local grocers
are expecting 10 buy them from the
farmers at a dollar a bushel before
the end of the week and will retail
them for $1.25. The drop in this
article Of food warrants some of the
merchants in predicting that there
will be 80 cent potatoes this fall.
Imported tubers still remain at the
high price. but there ere so many
home grown being offered that il is
expected they will be crowded out or

Farmers in the city Monday morn

wouldn't buy from them. preferring
10 do business with the commission

TO happen sooner or later. one
farmer brought a ton of cabbage TO

OUT OF FEDERAL HANDS.

WASHINGTON, July 23.-Federal
Jurisdiction over the operation of
the draft ceases today.
The fortunes of more than a mil
lion American young men, called to
the oolors in the first draft, will rest
in the hands of the local exemption
boards and the district boards. when
Provost Marshal Gen. EnOch Crowd
er mails the official lists of men call
ed, late today.
Once in operation, local boards
and district boards will be entirely
out of the Jurisdiction Of the federal
government. The next act of the
federal government will be the mo-
bilization of the national army which
probably will not take place until
early fall.
All Steps Clear.
Every step has been made clear
to the local boards and there should
be no delay" said Gen. Crowder to-
day. The only possible snag the
local boards can strike is in the mat
ter of industrial exemptions. There
is no clear-cut ruling of what indus
tries shall be allowed exemptions be
cause we have felt inclined TO allow
the members. of the local board TO
pass Judgment on this matter. How
ever. if there arises a demand for a
ruling. Pres't Wilson will issue
proclamation naming Industrial
classes which may be exempted
Six Of the civilian members of Gen.
Crowder's own staff were drawn in
the draft, but lin order TO set an
example for other governmental de-
partments", the general will not
seek exemption for them.
Requests for exemptions are f1ood
ing into the Office of the provost
marshal from every quarter. The de
partment of justice is swamped with
requests of similar character. The
answer 10 all seekers of exemptions
is simply: Put the matter up TO
your local board"
