AUGUST CALL ON
STATE May NOT
Be HEAVY; ONLY.
$50 IS OUTLOOK.
Governments Paper Indi-
Gates Low Call-l23 Cass
Men Ready Here

North Dakota may be called upon
to furnish only $50 men in the
August draft call, according to an
unofficial announcement in the of
fetal Bulletin" the government war
time newspaper published in Wash
ington.
North Dakota, in the July call, is
furnishing 5000 men.
The adjutant general Of the state,
Angus Fraser, has just completed a
survey Of the state local draft
boards to determine the number OF
men remaining within class l, and
many of the counties have only a
few men, while some have not a suf-
ficient number of class / men to fill
the July call.
Using New Men in August
In the August call it is deemed
likely that several counties will nave
to rely upon the new draft list to fill
their quotas. The men who became
81 since June 5, 1917, and registered
on June s, 1918, are being classified
by the various local boards of the
state, under instructions to have the
lists ready in the event there Is need
of calling such men up in the
August quota.
Cass Has 1923 Men.
Cass county, which is sending 227
men in the July call, has 123 men in
the class list available for the
August call. There are, all told, 141
men in the list, but several are dis
qualified for service at this time, be-
cause Of slight physical defects.
None but fighting men, ready for
immediate service, are wanted in
the present calls.
Few Will Be Released.
Few men will be released by the
draft boards for the navy, as the
boards have received notices that
they must keep men up to 80 per
cent Of the current quota.

hogs, but in the main we were sue

epidemic throughout the county OF

the hogs.
Doubtless these troubles are caus-
ed from parasites-lice and worms
and improper digestion of food. Where
the skin is sore it should me treated

oil and one tablespoonful of turpen-
tine per hundred pounds of live weight.
And one of the best tonic you can get
is one bushel wood ashes, one bushel
charcoal, eight pounds lime, eight
pounds table salt, four pounds sulphur
and three pounds copperas. This
should be mixed well in dry place
where the swine will have free access

Keep lice off by greasinz with any o.

fresh water should be supplied at all
times, both to drink and to wallow In.
