organizations embodying the MEM
bers of the National Guard drafted
into the military service Of the United
States and to create the national army,
and has caused said aggregate
number to be apportioned to the sew
eral states and territories and the
District of Columbia as set forth in
the schedule hereto appended.
Must Apportion Quotas.
"The governor Of each state and ter
ritory and the commissioners Of the
District Of Columbia, acting for and
by the direction of the president and
in accordance with said act Of congress
and rules and regulations prescribed
pursuant thereto, shall apportion the
quota SO apportioned to such state, ter
rtory or district and shall communi-
cate to each local board established
in such state, territory or district no.
tice Of the net quota to be furnished
by such board, and such net quotas
shall thereupon be furnished by the re-
spective local boards as required by
said act Of congress and rules and reg
ulations prescribed pursuant thereto"
In computing the number Of men to
be required from the various states
the government put to the credit Of
each state every man 1t now has in
the National Guard and every man it
has contributed since April ,as u
war volunteer to the regular army.
Computation Method.
Placing on the debit side Of the led
ger the national army of 100000, the
entire National Guard at war strength
and the number of war volunteers
needed on April last, to bring the
regulars up to the war strength. the
grand total was apportioned according
to population. &C..
This gave a gross quota for each
state, from which a net quota was com
puted by checking off the number Of
National Guardsmen available for fed
eral service and the number Of men
given by the state to the regular army
since April 1.
The apportionment was made on the
basis of an estimated grand total for
the United States and its possessions
Of 1O5,36e,O58 Inhabitants.
Total Of 1,152,985.
Each will furnish under this appor-
tionment the men its total registration
would Indicate as fair proportion,
rather than the number the actual pop
ulation Of the district would Indicate.
The total of these gross quotas Is l.
152,9S5 men.
Credit is given to the various states
for a total of 485, 1856 voluntary enlist
ments in the National Guard and reg
ulars, making the total net quota for
all states 1000 men.

Washington.-The war department
has promulgated a formal order from
the president drafting 8s7 600 men into
the military service Of the United
States under the selective conscription
law. The order shows what part Of
the total must be furnished by each
state and territory.
The only steps now remaining are
distribution by the governors ! Of
state quotas among the local exemp-
ton districts and the great lottery,
which probably will be held next
week and which will establish the
order in which registrants are to pre-
sent themselves for service or exemp-
ton.
The men summoned for service will
be used to fill the regular army and
National Guard to war strength and
to organize the first 100000 Of the new
national army.
Total to Be 1862, 1855.
The total Of these three forces will
be 1,262,9S5 men.
Later another 100000 will be called

Road conditions were miserable. The
heavy rains of Friday. made the roads
almost impossible in spots. But the
Elgin Six" blasted its way through the
sands of Anoka county with the same
ease that it traversed the gumbo of the
Red River valley. The Red trail route
is not bad highway for automobile
travel. but when soaked by an all nights
rain 1t surely becomes not only bad, but
very treacherous in spots. 1t must be
also taken in consideration that the run
was partly made at night Night travel
at a high rate of speed over familiar
roads is bad enough. but when coupled
with uncertainty and rain-soaked
highway, the Elgin run looms up as a
most remarkable performance.
The performance for endurance and
speed is probably the best record ever
attained anywhere especially when the
conditions under which the run was
made are taken into consideration. 1t

Late Potato and Tomato

Plant Lice.
BY @. z. MORGAN.
Garden Supervisor.

Plant lice or aphids, more appropriate
ly termed Kaiser bugs" are with us in
great abundance and unless extra care
and caution are taken the late potato
and tomato crops will be complete
failure. The Characteristic appearance
of the injury of this little pest is that
the plant seems TO be low in condition
throughout, and the leave curl and fin-
ally the plant dies clear down. the aph-
ids migrating to another plant.
The cause of their abundance is the
favorable spring, the lice being able to
produce very fast while their enemies
we're not able TO keep pace with them
Among the common enemies the
sommcn lady bird beetles and their
larvae, Of which the convergent lady
bird. the nine-spotted lady bird and the
spotted lady bird are the most effective.
also the aphis lion and the maggots of
the common surplus flies are very ef-
fective. Even more beneficial are the
little parasitic flies whose larvae live
within the maggots and destroy myr-
lads OF them with incredible swiftness,
often destroying the aphids over a whole
field in a few days.

the temperature and food supply. these

AS the affected leaf becomes low in

Geld weather.
To control this pest a contact in
secticide or a spray that will kill by
contact is used. Nicotine sulphate-one
tablespoonful to one gallon Of kerosene
emulsion. are the two standard sprays.
In making kerosene emulsion use one
half pound soap. two gallons kerosene
and one gallon soft water first dissolve
the soap in the boiling hot water. re-
move from fire and add kerosene, beat
into a perfect emulsion, dilute eleven
to fifteen times. The aphid being
sucking insect the poison sprays such as
arsenate of lead will have no effect upon
1t.
If good clean culture and other meth
eds of good gardening had been prac-
ticed early in the season. the indications
are that they would not have been so
bad. But since they are here the plants
must be sprayed If any results are to be
expected.
