Chicago. Aug. 22.-weather over the corn
belt generally favorable fer making the
crop. Those who have watched 1t closely
say 1t is doing for corn what it did for
oats. The bulk of the corn crop liz sections
of largest production is regarded as past

damage the quality but that is all. OF
course, drouth can cause the corn TO curl
and fire and damage il for feeding but
will not prevent the ears from filling.
Illinois, Iowa.. Missouri and other sections
of the corn belt had rain yesterday. 1t
was the general opinion of corn traders
last night sales should be made on all
bulges. There has been liberal covering
this class. After the big break of late the
rally of cents from the low point on
Monday was regarded as enough for the
present The point made by leading bears
is that there is no general support from the
bulls.
Farmers in Illinois and Iowa are not
selling oats freely since the break in prices
of the last few days. They have sold many
oats previously and some of the country
elevator men are said to be loaded with
high priced oats. Local elevator interests
have bought freely, to provide for their
sales for shipment this month and are run
ming oats to store for delivery on August
and September sales.

PLEAD FOR FARMERS
Stubbs and Kansas Delegation in
Washington Seek Their Exemption.

Washington, Aug 22.-The danger
of taking too many young men from
the farms of Kansas and other big
farm states who are farm specialists
and needed in the increased produc-
ton campaign was pointed out to sew
eral government officials Tuesday by
a delegation from Kansas. The gov
eminent will consider their sug-
geStions and may act upon them.
On the delegation were w. r.
Stubs, Prof o. E. Reed, w. A.
Cochel, ]. G. Mercer, NJ. NJ. Sherman
and e. s. Root. They saw Secretary
of War Baker, Herbert Hoover and
other officials.
The delegation made it plain that
every farmer or man claiming to be
a farm worker should not be ex-
empted, but only that young men val
liable in the increased production
work, cattle growers and specialists,
who could not be replaced, be ex-
empted from army service. Mr.. Hoover
especially was interested in their
statements and said he wanted Pres
ident Wilson to hear it

SECOND ARMY DRAFT


been accomplished on this line 1t is
pointed out that the guardsmen will
be at the camps only a comparatively
short time. They will have a period
of intensive training and then will be
sent to France. Present plans call for
their presence at the American base
before Christmas. That will leave the
southern training sites vacant but in
order to encamp a draft army there
it will be necessary to supply vast
amounts of tentage or to ask congress
for millions to build additional wooden
cantonments. The national guard will
camp under canvas in the south, but
it will take its tents with it to France.
Also there will be a heavy demand
from the troops abroad for tentage to
replenish the supply there.
Famine in Equipment.
Americas problem has resolved it
self not into one of getting men or in
getting them across the ocean, but in
equipping them. And, from what is
said in official circles today, the prob
lem is not an easy one to solve. The
quaEtermaster's department, cooper
ating with the various war and supply
boards, is securing the market for
the needed materials, but they are not
coming in as fast as desired
The American army will have to de-
pend on the French artillery supply
for probably nine months. perhaps a
year. BY that time the vast number
of field guns for which contracts have
been let and for which congress is
asked to appropriate hundreds of mil
lions under the heading coast de-
Tense" will commence to come out of
the steel mills and from the ordnance
factories. 4
Help from Neutrals.
America is pushing aeroplane con-
Struction but it will be six months be-
fore she WI begin to assume the part
cut out for her in the air. 1t was
pointed out today that not alone do
the guns and aeroplanes have to be
built and tested; they have to be carr
ried over seas. And, what with trans
portation of men and war materiai Is
| 5000 miles and at the same time sup
plying the allies with food and shot,
the shipping facilities, including the
help which America will get from
neutrals forced to help her by the
| peril of an embargo, will be strained
to the utmost.
So there will be no more men called
out until after these problems have
| been settled. In addition t. other
| things there remains the detailed Ia
| Dor of re-apportioning all state quotas
before a new draft can be made.
What may be done late in october
| is this:
Another draft will be called and the
| local and district boards can get to
work enrolling the men. But the men
will not be called for service until
early next year. January ] is the ten
tative date, but it may be set back q
| fexp weeks

The Italian poet and dramatic,

Crossing of the Isonzo was simplified

Wierd Night Battle.
The main body of the Italian troops
massed on the far bank and in 4
bloody battle drove the Austrians
from a triple line of trenches. A
steady artillery fire shattered the en-
envy lines as the victorious troops
pushed on.
Last night the Austrians desperate
ly but vainly counter-attacked. The
barrage fire on both sides lighted the
night to daytime brilIiance and threw
Quivery shadows over the rocky lines.
Holes in the granite literally mined
holes in this radiance of shot and shell
while around all, wierd shapes and
shadows fought hand-to-kand. 1t was
a nightmare of sound and strange
distorted figures in the unearthly
light of the shells.
