DRAFTED MEN WITH DEEPEN
DENTS GIVEN FULL PROTEC-
TION.
Army, Navy, and Marine Corps
Closed Absolutely to Those
Having Needy Relatives.

Washington, NOV. 19.--Men of
draft age with dependent relatives
are placed in a more secure position
under the new regulations to, gov
ern future operations of. the selec-
tive service law made public last
week by Provost Marshal General
Crowder. While deferred classifica-
ton under the new plan, which re-
places all discharge or exemption
certificates may be revoked when
granted for any other cause, there is
no way in which men with depen-
dents can be called up for service out
of their turn. Added protection for
dependents is secured by the require
ments in cases where the registrant
seeks to waive his deferred classified
ton status that valves also must be
obtained from those dependent on
him before he can be taken into the
military service.
The effect of the regulations is to
close the ranks of the army, navy or
| marine corps absolutely to men be-
tween 21 and 81 years old where
they have dependents who would suf-
fer if they went to the front. Local
boards are constituted judges CT all
such cases.
For the first time also a day is
provided in which men physically
untitled for front line duty in the ar
my and yet able to do some part OF
the work of soldier may be called
for limited military service behind
the lines. Partial physical exemp-
lions may be granted by local boards
to create this new classification.
1t is made plain that men already
held by local boards for service, will
continue to be sent forward as need
ed until such time as the new Glass
in each district is sufficiently organic
ed to care for drafts from the dis
trict. All pending appeals will the1
be wiped off the slate and the new
system will apply in full.
Another change permits enlistment
of registered men in the navy and
marine corps, where they are so fan
down on the call list as to make GER
tain that their action will not delay
the task of army building.
Provision for voluntary enlistment
il the army is made by means OF a
voluntary waiver classification and
the automatic advancement of the
Iregistrant to Glass 1 and his Undue
ton at once into the military SER
vice. Where the registrant has de
pendents his waiver must be accom-
panied, however, by waivers from
those dependent on him, If not min
ors, or by affidavits showing tina
minor dependents will be adequately
provided for, if there are minor de-
pende1ts. A waiver by minor car
not be accepted.

tobacco, 1875, 478,000 pounds
Potatoes also are record crop,
with a total of 439,6S6,000 bushels,
but unfavorable weather late in the
season caused reduction of 1S,000,-
900 bushels.
THE corn crop of 1917 is notable
as occupying the largest acreage and
producing the largest total crop OF
record" said a statement of the de-
partment of agriculture. THE yield
per acre, however, is not exceptional
owing to an unfavorable season char
acteriged by late spring, and cold
summer, which was also too dry ov-
er much of the corn belt, and early
and damaging frosts and freezes, the
season thus being shortened at both
ends. Thus, lhhappily, the bounti,
full crop contains much corn that did
not fully mature, probably in excess
of 20 per cent, although most Of, this
had reached the dough state, making
it useful for silos and early feeding.
1.-THE potato crop, estimated al
I440, 200, 600 bushels, is the largest on
record, Notwithstanding al unfavor'
able September and October, which
cut down the actual production be-
low the forecasts made earlier in the
season. The northern commercial Sec
tions were most seriously affected by
the unfavorable weather during Dc
tober. The quality of the crop II
slightly above the average.
THE buckwheat production o.
16,S13,O00 bushels falls below earl!
forecasts, although it is up to the av
erage in total production compared
with former years.
"The fiaxseed crop, is very disap
pointing in its outcome, being small
Ter than early forecasts and much
below an average production.
1.-THE tobacco crop of 1,1S5, AIS,
900 pounds is the largest on record

DIAMOND RING In FISH.
Lost Ring Found in Stomach OF
Fish.

Danville, ILL.,, Nov. 19.-That
truth is stronger than fiction was
demonstrated at Hoopeston when
Ray Tilton, young farmer, received
a letter from Peoria saying dia-
mond ring, valued at $3.50, had been
found in the stomach of fish which
had been caught in the Illinois river.
In July Tilton was at Peoria, and
while rowing on the river the ring
dropped off his finger. He never ex-
pected to see it again, and was much
surprised to- receive the letter. The
writer said he caught the fish, and
while dressing it, saw something
bright fall out of the stomach. He
also said he would be glad to send
the ring to Hoopeston if Tilton
would send the reward offered in a
Peoria newspaper. 1t was sent.

Corn RIOTS i'm Three Days.

Max Grafenberg of Dover related
an experience Saturday that shows
in what condition the corn crop is,
largely as a result of continued
damp weather for many weeks past.
He gathered load of corn to feed to
his hogs, and did not feed the last OF
it till three days after he gathered it.
On the third day he discovered that
the husked corn had started to mold
in the wagon.-West Union Gazette.

SHUT UP OR GO TO JAIL.
No More Warnings to BE Issued Il
German Sympathizers.

Fort Dodge, Nov 19.-United
States Marshal f. r.. Moore. with
deputies for the northern federal
district of Iowa, met in conference
Monday night to plan the prosecu-
ton of German sympathizers. Mar
shall Moore says the number of Ger
man sympathizers is large in the dis
trict. Officers will start campaign
to round them up and deal with
them severely to the full extent OF
the law. Moore reports he has travel
ed 1000 miles warning people and
the next offense will be arrest. Twen-
ty-four persons already have been
arrested for disloyalty in this dis
trict. The marshal estimates the
number of pro-Germans in this VI
ciaity larger than any place In the
country outside of solid German
settlements.
