MANY FALSE iRlsHMEN.
Confusion ofNames Results in PuxxIine
Situation In Montana.

SItuSttoU M montana.
Helena. Mont. July 31.-The authori-
ties of Montana have been faced with a
puzzling situation rounding up dis
loyalists. for many Of the persons sus-
pected of being unpatriotic bore such
names as Sullivan. Murphy. Mulligan
and O'Brien. but instead of being Irish
men were Austrians, Russians, Bull
garians and Turks.
1t was finally discovered that this
situation was brought about many
years ago when thousands of foreign
ers bearing names almost unpronounce-
able were asked by employment agents
at mines. ranches and railroad ) ards
to adopt American names.
At that time Irishmen predominated
as leaders Of section gangs and miners
and they rechristened the workers to
match their own tastes.
Into the great melting pot stirred by
the Irish section-boss stepped the Rus
sian and he came out smiling as
Patrick O'Grady. Then followed the
Austrian. who came out Mickey O'Flan-
agan and the Bulgarian who was
known thereafter as Dinny O'Toole.
+ And the practice grew until the irish

But the war has changed things.
Government agents and state vigilance
officials have been keeping keen watch
on many Of these false Irishmen 1t is
seemingly impossible to rechrsten the
aliens now and every new case needs
a new explanation.

Des Moines. July 31.-One draft call

LOO men.
About ten days ago the provost mar
Hhai general In wire forwarded to
the state adjutant general stated that
as many men would be called in
August as in July and said further that
some 5000 white men and "a CORE
spending number Of colored men would
be asked for in August. This number
would be no means equal the July
drafts. which In all took $4,000 Iowans

sued is for 206 men who have had at
least a grammar school education for
special instruction as auto tradesmen
at ,Des Moines College. starting Aug.

feer thru their local boards for this
work up to Aug. 6. Registrars of the
class of 1918 may volunteer under this

WAS filed by assigning one man from
each Of the city boards Of the state and
one from each county board in the
alphabetical list up to and including
Marion county.
There are by no means enough men

ene5 europe.

Americas great corn crop, exceed
ing 5000. 600. 900 bushels, will save the
worlds food situation. officials of the
United States food administration be
lieva.
Corn Is the nations hest food cereal,
housewives are beginning TO r~ealize.
1t contains all the elements needed to
keep the body in a state of health n
vhan used according to the scores of
tried recipes. especially when COM
bined with an added portion of oil or
fat, Will sustain life indefinitely. In
dian warriors in colonial days lived on
parched corn alone for many days at a
time, and at Valley Forge parched
corn was at times the sole ration OF
the Continental soldiers.
Owing to transportation difficulties
caused by the war the corn crop moved
more slowly to market this year than
ever before. Now, however. the cereal
is reaching the millers and consumers.
In the meantime the nations surplus
wheat has been sent to Europe.
Today there are approximately ~
bushels of corn for every American.
This quantity is greater by five bush
elssthan in former years.
Corn has become the nations main
stay in the crisis of war.
Just as this cereal saved the first
American colonists from famine on
many occasions. just as 1t served as a
staple food during the War of the Rev
olution aud during the Civil War. King
Corn has again come to the front in
the nations battle with autocracy.
Corn meal is finding greatly ncreas-
ed use In the making of ordinary white
bread. Hundreds of housewives and
many of the larger bakers are mixing
20 per cent. corn meal with wheat
flour to make leavened bread. This
kind Of a mixture Is worked and baked
In the same recipes and with the same
methods that apply to straight wheat
bread.
Corn bread--using corn meal entire.
ly-is gaining a greater popularity
than eve before. Housewives are
coming to realize that every pound OF
wheat saved in America means a pound
of wheat released for shipment to the
nations with which America Is associ.
ated in the war.
There are a score Of corn products
that today possess unusual importance
for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet
entnH corn cakes and huckwheat cakes
and for use in the kitchen instead of
g%ranulated sugar is one Of the leading
products made from corn.
Corn oil. excellent for frying and for
every other purpose filled by salad oils,

quantities. 1t comes from the germ Of
the corn.
