NE, And WESTERN
TONNAGE TO Be
RE DISTRIBUTED

The Anthracite Committee of the
meeting, Wednesday, in Philadelphia,
with producers and distributors of
anthracite for the purpose of rear
ranging and re-distributing tonnage
these shippers formerly sent into ter
ritory either barred from anthracite
or had the tonnage cut down to meet
the fuel situation. Water shipments
were halted to New England owing to
the U-boat menace and provisions
were made to ship this extra water
tonnage ny rail.
A big gain in time in routing and
distribution was created with a COM
mensurate aid in output. The ship
pers agreed, among themselves, to
transfer their coal accounts and there
by cooperate more intensively in sup
plying points under the new rulings
of the Anthracite Committee.
In a former order, producers and
distributors were requested by the
Committee to ship a minimum during
June of domestic tonnage, one-twelfth
of the shipments into New England
during the coal year beginning April
1, 1916.
The Committee announced that on
account of the water situation at this
time shipments east of Boston may
be temporarily interrupted.
Regional Director Smith advises
that the railroads are prepared to
handle largely increased tonnage and
this must be taken advantage of by
all producers and shippers at this
time

,hance of being sent to the bottom by

chance of being sent to the bottom by
a shot from one of their guns"
Lieut.. Trofimov was asked about
the possibility of larger U-boats than
those reported being in this vicinity.
He replied that last Fall, before he
left his vessel, he heard that the Ger
mans had built a U-boat of 1000 tons,
not equipped with torpedo tubes, but
the extra space fitted with large
number of guns. His information
was that the guns were to be used
in supplying captured Allies vessels
with weapons, so they might be con-
verified into merchant raiders. This
submarine, he said, was able, accord
ing to his information, to remain
away from base for three months.
He never heard whether the large
submarine was actually used on a long
voyage or not.

cost of pure-bred sire service at $6.12
This item is also below the average
cost to those keeping pure-bred sires
in our state. The rest of the record
as compiled in regard to total cost,
net cost, and cost of milk per quart
YOU will readily understand.
In the above showing the cost of
producing milk, we have made no
reference to the cost of managerial
ability No farm can be run without
it. 1t is a very important item but
one of the hardest items in the list on
which to make a fair approximation
as to cost It would add materially
to the cost of production. but any one
who reads this article will readily
Sc ethatH no estimate has been above
the actual cost. That the final cost
of a quart of milk, as shown by these
figures, is not over estimated is self
evident.

men OF IS WILL NOT Be TAKEN
Until 1t Is Absolutely Necessary,
Says Secretary Baker-CIassifica-

Washington, Aug 19.-Men of Is

til it is absolutely necessary, SeCre-
tary of War Baker told the house mil
itary affairs committee today in OPP
ening up hearings on the new man
power bill making the draft age from
IS to As.
Baker, and later Chief of staff
March, emphasized that men of 18
years would be taken last and that
they probably would be called into
the army next spring as probably the
whole new class would be exhausted
by next June.
Baker also said that the classified
ton of men over thirty-one would be
a long process, and that it might be
necessary to take from men not over
eighteen before the men above thirty
two were fully classified.
Wants Power When Necessary.
For this reason he said that he OBJ
jeCted to any provision in the new
man power bill that would not be
elastic enough to give the war de-
partment that power. -. .... ..
Senator Gore of Oklahoma this af.
ternoon introduced an amendment 20

the drafting of men under twenty one

the Dunkards and MennOnites, and
where additional farm help is needed,
these places are made known to the
environment commanders, togethei
with record of their farm labor
needs.
The plan has worked out so well
that in the three camps where def
mite lists of DIRECTORS were compiled,
practically all Of these men have been
placed. Camp Meade had SO, all Of
them now at labor on farms; 100 of
the 1O2 men at Camp Lee have beer,

Camp Taylor.

strict regulations drawn up by the
War Department They are placed
on farms at a standard wage and re-
ports of their conduct and effective
