Urgent Appeal to Cedar Rapids Rail
road Man.

Cedar Rapids, June l4.-,Another ur-
gent appeal has been made to the local
railroads to help encourage the enlist
ment Of trackmen and bridgemen for
construction work in France. The Sew
.enth reserve engineers regiment offers
many opportunities to the railroad men
who want to get into the service in
the work with which they are familiar.
The Seventh regiment Is officered by
practical construction men, which as
sures every enlisted man OF being I'M
der capable leaders.
Many tempting offers are made to
the men in order to get the best con-
struction men to enlist for the much
needed work. The pay connected with
enlistments varies from ISL paid the
master engineers down to $50 paid the
lowest private in the ranks. AS all the
cost of food, clothing. transportation.
shelter IS paid by the government, the
pay of the enlisted men is all net. Ce-
dar Rapids has already sent twentys
five men with the engineers corps. and
it Is to be hoped that many more will
take advantage Of this last call of the
government for engineers.

Essex, June 14.--Rain and cold
weather have been keeping the faSMers
from the fields and the crops from
growing. Many will have to replant
and along the Nishna river bottom the
crops are under water. The pastures
along the river are under water and
those having cattle had to move them
to higher ground. Arthur Lindberg lost
a COW and Mr.. Palm also had the mis-
fortune to lose several head OF stock.
The water reached the Charles Lille
dahl large home and the water was
above the floor. They had to put their
hogs in wagons to keep them from
drowning. The tracks between Essex
and Red Oak have been washed out so
Thursday there was no train service
at Essex. The water at Porter's lake
is a foot above the floor in the skating
rink, which was built unusually high.
1t is said by some Of the older citi-
zens that they have never seen the
river so high for twenty -five. years.
People are making special trips to view
the water, which looks more like e
large lake than the quiet Nishnabotna-
