startling than have been heard in con-

Speech" interrupted Hastings.

Indications are that the second draft
will be made not later than November
and call probably another 625,000 men.
100000 on Front Next Year.
More may be called as the general
staff is planning to fill all vacancies

will be selected, making 1,625,000 be-
fore Christmas. If necessary, men eX-
empted on the first draft will be called.
Army officials are concentrating on
getting transport facilities to move
the great force overseas. BY spring.
according to indications, the United
States will be represented on the Eu
ropean battlefields by not less than
100000 men and by summer the num-
Der probably will be 100000
Men Well Trained.
The war department selected the
New York and Illinois guardsmen as
the first militia to go to Europe be-
cause each state has a complete d.
vision and the men can be moved as
a unit and because their work on the
border satisfied the army authorities
they have sufficient training. Also,
they can be better spared than regu-
lars needed to train the draft army.
President Wilson Is expected within
the next two days to issue proclama-
ton setting n date for the draft and
establishing the exemption machinery.
Work is being rushed to have the
environments ready for the first mere
ments September /. Intensive train
ing will fit the men to go to Europe
within six months, 1t Is estimated, their
preparation to be completed behind the
front in France.

lar army now average from 40 to 60
per cent.
The men accepted will form the best
army, physically, in the world. In no
other army are the physical require
ments so hard to meet. Even Ger
many's armies are picked on less
stringent standard.

against rats offering a reward of
about 2 1-2 cents for every carcass
delivered. While it is hoped to reduce
the rat plague considerably the chief
end is to secure an important addition
to the stocks of fats available for the
making of soaps and lubricants. The
rat carcasses are treated in a corpse
utilization establishment, where, after
the fat has been boiled out, what re-
mains is converted into a poultry

amount Of fat is also secured by skim
