FAVOR DRAFT ACE
OF Fl TO As YEARS
Representative Kahn Will Intro
duce Bill In COngress-1S
Is Too Young

Washington, June pa War De-
partment bill changing the draft ages
will be presented at this session Of
congress, Representative julius Kahn
ranking Republican member of the
House Military Affairs Committee,
declared today.
Kahn today came out strongly
against lowering the age limit below
u years. Experience of the Allies
has shown, he said, that the boys
from IS to q years are not the best
soldiers. He favors a limit of u to
10 years.
It was learned today tnat the COM
ing discussion of the draft act amend
ments is to be seized by some mem
beers as an opportunity to present 9TH
r amendments to cure what they
term inequalities and unfairncss IN
the operation Of the law.

OVER 70 MARRIED
men AFFECTED
BYDRAFTCHANCE
Will Be Taken Out OF De-
ferred Classes Into Class
One
ADVISORY BOARD TO GO
OVER QUESTIONAIRES
Marriage Since June 18th, 1917,
Not Sufficient Cause For Ex-
emp!ions, Is Order

The Redistribution of the men reg
;stered in June, 1917, in Cape Girar-
deau County will be started during
the earlier part of next week, it was
announced yesterday by the local
board members in Jackson. The re-
classification is made in compliance
with the order Of the provost mar
shat general, who asked that all draft
classes of the first registration be re-
viewed in certain states, including
Missouri. s
At least 20 young married men,
who registered under the selective
draft act last year, will be added to
Class One A, is the estimate Of the
local board According to a ruling
of the provost marshal general at
Washington, a marriage contracted
after May IS, 1917, is not sufficient
cause for exemption from service.
According to the estimate of the
members of the local board about so
young married men VINO will be eff
fected by the Reconsideration, are to
be found in the county. They have
married since May Is, 1917. Of this
number it is believed at least 10 will
be placed in Class One A under NE
new classification order.
This order provides that the regis
trant be placed in the first class, pro-
vided he has no dependents other
than his wife. If child has been
born, the rcgistrant may be given a
| deferred classification.
A few registrants who were mar
ried since May Is, 1917, were given
| a deferred classification for reasons
other than the dependency of their
wives. These men will be permitted
to remain in a deferred class.
At the present time the legal ADJ
| visory board of the county is review
| ing all questionaires of the first reg
istration class. The advisory board
will make recommendations to the To-
cal board as to whether registrant
shall remain in the class, in which
he had been originally placed, OF
whether he shall be advanced in the
draft.
The legal advisory board, however
will not pass on the cases of those
men VINO were married since May Is
1917. These will be taken up by the
local board directly and be passed OF
by the board Immediately.
The number of majority of the
married men who are effected by the
Redistribution have been passed IL
the draft calls. 1t is very likely thai
those whose number has been passed
will be placed in the next call, pro
vided they are put in Cass One 4
in the Reconsideration.
Those who believe to have claim
for exemption may take the sam
course in appealing as in previou
cases. They can present their claim:
to the district board for review o
their case.

NUMBEROF FARMERS
GREATLY INREASED|
Better Prices For Farm PIOcucts
Induce More Production
IN The South.

Washington, June 2O.-The war
emergency brought a great increase
in the number of farmers, farm wo-
men, and boys and girls instructed
by county agents of the United States
Department of Agriculture and the
State agricultural colleges in prob
lens of greater food production and
conservation.
According to reports to the Office
of Extension Work South of the
States Relations Service, 303, 1923
farmers in the Southern States were
reached during 1917 with definite
demonstrations in the growing of
crops, raising and feeding of live
stock, marketing and other problems.
The number of acres covered by
the crop demonstrations alone in 1917
was, 1857, 4S5. In addition to these
a conservative estimate of the num-
Der of farms directly reached by the
county agents in 1918 is 100000
The figures represent about 60 per
cent of all farms in the South.
Agents are giving advice and help
in one way or another to nearly ev-
eryone with whom they come in con-
tact, and the direct and indirect in
fuences of the county agents work
and the proportion of the farmers
reached is thought to be much higher
than the figures given.
Approximately 2OO,OOO,OOO cans Of
fruits and vegetables were preserved
for future use through the work of
the home demonstration agents in the
southern States in 1917, according TO
reports to the Office of Extension
Work South, of the States Relations
Service.
In the regular home demonstration
work S2,227 women did regular work
III lHelI llOIllSS iOl DSIlcIlI VI
selves and their community clubs
3,S12 community clubs of women
were organized for instruction; 1906
girls were organized into clubs. The
girls enumerated put up 1884, 513
cans of fruit and vegetables, while
the women put up 34,993,677 cans.
These women and girls also used the
new home drying process, taught for
the first time last year, and thus pre-
served 5,511,SS1 pounds of dried veg
etables and fruits They picked OF
brined vegetables to the extent OF
1,17S,6S3 gallons.
| In addition to this work the agents
working in 1917 enlisted an emer,
gency enrolment in the South OF
about 100000 women and girls who
undertook to raise gardens and espe-
cially to can and preserve for future
use.

4 careful investigation into the
rlobablc costs Of the bridges across
the drainage channels on the Rock
Leyec Road and near Blomeyer sup
ported by the estimate of the State
Highway Engineer Department
shows t&at the total costs of these
two bridges will be not more than
$4,000. Of this amount 100000 Is
figured for The building Of tie Rock
Levce crossing and the $4,000 is the
estimate of costs of the Blomeyer
bridge.
Cape Girardcau Township will be
required, however, to pay only one-
half of the costs Of the BlOmeyer
bridge, the other half must be borne
by Scott County, thus making the
costs fer the BIomeyer bridge, as far
as Cape Girardeau Township IS con-
ccrncd $37, 800.
This estimate was made by County
Highway Engineer Dennis Scivally
after the cross sections had been TAX
en- and soundings were made for a
foundation. This was necessary IN
order to ascertain how deep the ex-
cavation for the foundation had to be
dur and how much material would
be needed for the building of the
foundation.
County Highway Engineer Scivally
declared that the remainder OF the
100000 proposed road bond issue
which will be voted on June %, would
be expended for the improvement OF
all roads of the entire township. This
sum. he said, would be sufficient to
put every road in the township IN a
irst-class condition.
Tne sum of $62 500 will be avail
able of the 100000 issue for the re-
construction and improvement of Tho
roads in the township after the Rock
Ievee Road bridge has been complct'
ed and TIE township has paid its hall

In order to be certain of the estl-
mated costs Of the bridge over thu
Rock Levce Road, County Highway
Engineer Scivaliy said he put thu
matter up to the State Highway De,
partment submitting a description OF
toDographical conditions and othel
data necessary to make an estimate
of the costs.
The following telegram was receiv
ed yesterday from Assistant Stat
Highway Engineer J. Russell Ellis:
Concrete bridge for the Rock Leve'
Road will cost, roughly estimated
100000.
In j. mass meeting held at tn
court house Il week ago, County High
way Engineer Scivally explained tn
situation fully giving the dimension
of the bridge the kind of materia
to be used and other details tina
showed that the bridges over tn
drainage channels would be the hes
structures of their kind in Southeas
Missouri. He termed them perms
nent bridges, stating that they woul
continue to stand for generations.

Mirrors In History.

During the middle ages. from che
twelfth to the end Of the fifteenth
century, pocket mirrors or small hand
mirrors carried at the girdle were con-
sidered q necessary part Of q lsdy's
'.oilet. The method Of backing gla>s
with metal for mirrors was well known
IN the middle ages, though steel and
silver mirrors were almost exclusively
used. 1t was In Venice that the max.
Ing OF glass mirrors on q commercial
scale was hrst developed.
