FOOD CONTROL BILL
 SENT TO CONFERENCE
House Instructs to Disagree to All Senate Amendments - Probably Will be at Least a
 Week Before Report is Ready.

Washington, July 25.-The admin istration food control bill was sent to conference by the House today with blanket instructions to disagree to all Senate amendments. The conferees will hold their first meeting tomorrow morning, but it probably will be at least a week before report on the long-disputed legislation is ready.
 Blocked in sending the measure to conference yesterday by the effort of Republican Leader Mann for a separ- ate vote, the Democrats brought in a special rule to force action today. Thirty-one Republicans joined in sup porting motion to invoke the prev ious question, shutting off debate, and after that MT. Mann's opposition collapsed completely. He made no attempt to force a record vote on adoption of the rule itself.
 The principal trouble in conference doubtless will center around the Sen- ate amendments for the war eXpendi- lures congressional committee, for a food control board of three members, for $2 minimum price for wheat, and to permit continuance of the use of foodstuffs in the manufacture of light wines and beer.
 In view of President Wilson's an Inounced opposition to the war eXpen- ditures committee, which he maintains would embarrass him in the conduct of the war, administration leaders are certain that they can eliminate it. The proposal to have three food commissioners instead of one prob ably will lead to a very stubborn fight, since the presidents desire to give Herbert Hoover free hand has many opponents in both houses.
 Indications are that the Senate pro- hibition provisions may be greatly strengthened At least five of the seven Senate conferees are said to favor personally bone dry country, and Chairman Lever of the House conferees has promised the prohibi- tion epresentatives that he will en- deavor strenuously to retain the House bone dry plan.
 A compromise plan would give the president power to limit the use of foodstuffs in light wines and beer when he believes it necessary, and provide for the redistillation of all spirits both in and out of bond.

LARGE GOAT RANCH
 IN NEWTON COUNTY

Little Rock, July 26.-Back in the hills of Newton county, two miles from the inland town of Jasper and IS miles from the nearest railroad, is the largest Angora goat ranch in Arkan- sas, recently established by F. A.. Hammons, an experienced stockman of Montana, who writes Commission CT Page that "the Arkansas range is far better than anything in the North for the goat" The ranch embraces 5000 acres of land, and is stocked with 1000 head of Angora goats. He will shear 5000 head this fall, and will have about 2,000 muttons. There are millions of acres of rough timber land in the mountain regions of the state, unsuitable for agricultural uses, that will make an ideal range for sheep and goats.

WOODRUFF COUNTY HAS
 FURNISHED ITS QUOTA

Little Rock, July 26.-Woodrutf is the only county in Arkansas that will not be required to furnish any men for the Army under the selective draft, being credited with a greater number of volunteer enlistments than required under the draft. The county has furnished 26S men for the various branches of the federal ser vice, and the quota under the selec- tive draft is only 234. Pulaski coun- ty will have to furnish the largest number, 320 for Little Rock, and 206 for the country districts, total of 526. The quota for the county is 1,O45, of which only 519 has been fur

MAJORITY OF GUARD
 IN FEDERAL SERVICE
Pick of Troops May be Rushed to the FrOnt-TO Receive In- tensive Training for Trench Warfare With Pershing.

Washington, July 25.-The entire national guard of the country, with the exception of troops from Cali fornia and the southwestern states, is in the federal service tonight under President Wilson's call.
 The remaining units will be brought in Aug. 3. on which day the whole force of probably 3o0,0OO men will be drafted into the army of the United States and will lose it's status as militia. From that day on the state troops can be used for any duty re- ouired of the regular army.
 The first increment of the guard was called out 10 days ago. Those called today embrace New England middle western and northwestern states and several southern states Probably more than 150,000 men went on the federal pay roll. New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio troops ana lDOSb lIOIn SSNSidi oliISi SIdlSs were in the first increment.
 With liberalization of the entire force complete after Aug. 5, the anks of all regiments will be filled up to full war strength wiht men from the selective draft lists.
 There have been many things to in- dicate that guard regiments which are now fairly well equipped and which have the benefit of the border mobilization will not be held long at the divisional training camps. If transportation is available, the best of the state troops may be hurried to France at once, stopping only for final outfitting. The intensive in- struction to fit them for trench war fare will be given at the American training camps in France, where Gen. Pershing's regulars already are at work.

BOIL WEEVIL INVADES
 LITTLE ROCK CITY CROP

Little Rock, July 26.-The boil weevil has invaded Little Rock and it has been suggested that it must have designs on "the city crop" This amounts to about IA ,000 bales per annum, according to the government estimate, and consists of the samples that are pulled from the bales offered on the market for sale. But it will not reach it so readily as will the new ginners law, which is designed, among other things, to prohibit the indis- criminate pulling of samples. The weevil has appeared in the demonstra- tion plot of cotton on the capitol grounds just north of the Agricul- tural Department. Half dozen fallen and punctured bolls were picked up l by Commissioner Page and put in a
 bottle. A few days later a dozen lively weevils had emerged, that, if
 turned loose in cotton patch, would have ruined many more bolls.

MAY VOLUNTEER FOR ARMY
 UNTIL NAMES ARE POSTED

Some rnisapprehension having aris- en regarding the eligibility of men for volunteer enlistment in the Army after their names had been drawn for the selective draft, Adjt. Gen. Me Cain, in response to telegrams from a number of recruiting officers, has wired them as follows:
 After a registered person has been called for military service by his local board and directed to appear for phy- sical examination he ceases to be eligible for voluntary enlistment. See section 15 and paragraph D, section IS, Rules and Regulations. Copy may he obtained from local board"
 The Provost Marshal Generals of- flee has ruled that the calling of the men consists in the posting of their names at the office of the local board, with the date on which they are to appear for physical examination. Until this was done, it was stated, a man may still voluntarily enlist.
 All day Sunday and until o'clock this morning the force of the Provost Marshal General was engaged in checking off the 10,500 numbers of Fridays drawing to make certain that no errors crept in. The final proofs have been corrected, and it was eX- pected that the numbers would be officially furnished to the various loca boards and the press some time late today.
