OF career that was to land him in
the championship Mason, who was a

Broome enjoyed a great advantage in
that he was the younger brother OF

USE OF SURPLUS COwPEA SEED.
Stockmen Urged to Plant or Feed Be-
 fore It Is Destroyed by Weevils.

Washington, D. C., June 9.-There is large surplus supply of cowpea seed in the country which should be planted or fed promptly to save it from the ravages of weevils, accord ing to Committe on Seed Stocks of the United States Department of Ag- riculture. The surplus is of varieties with colored seed which ordinarily are not used for human food, but which produce hay of excellent quality and seed which is very desirable con centrated stock feed rich in protein. Beginning with warm weather in sum- mer the damage to cowpea seed in storage by weevils is likely to be very large, so that it is highly de- sirable that plans be made to utilize the surplus supply promptly in addi- tional plantings and where there is an excess above this, for feeding, partic- ularly to hogs. It is urgent, the de- partment specialists say, that the South, especially, should further in- crease it's acreage of cowpeas this year.

 A $16,O00,000 appropriation to establish balloon and seapIane sta- tions to guard against submarire and air attacks, was asked of Congress by the war department today.
 The department wants thirteen sta tions along the Atlantic coast, and three on the gulf coast, with all these Notifications linked with railroads to transfer guns.
 The appropriations committee was informed that there are a sufficient number of airplanes now to defend the coasts, but that stations for them are needed.

ANOTHER MILLION
 FOR DUTY ABROAD
American Selective Service Law Is Chased as the Most Successful Mil itary Effort to the Present-Ma-
 jority in Class One.

Washington, June 5.-Today, on the anniversary of America's first man. power mobilization, another million youths, the estimated strength of the class of 1918, registered on the first station of the journey to the colors.
 Provost Marshal General Crowder. who supervises the draft, fixes the tentative number given above for the days new total, and likewise from the experience tables of the year places the number of potential soldiers to be added to the list today at 75O,- 900, concluding that the class will be 75 per cent composed of military ef- fectives.
 As they assemble at the registering stations today, the total of men raised Tn the draft in the United States for it's armies will pass 1,3O0,00O. Before the end of the present month. the mo- bilized total will have passed 1,5O0,- 6GGG, for the immense military ma chine that owes it's existence to the readiness of plain Americans to fight IS moving forward to a goal that will meet President Wilson's demand for force, force to the utmost, and force without stint" lg
 Men absent unavoidably from their homes on registering day may apply to any board for their cards. Names as recorded will pass into the exist ing classifications of registered men and, in accordance with their physi- cal qualifications, their status as to dependents, and to industrial or agri- cultural occupations. they will be as- signed to Class One, Two, Three, Four or Five. The overwhelming majority, however, as indicated by the estimates given, the provost marshal general ex- poets to find placed in Class One.
 They will go to the foot of the list of 1917 registrants in each class, and will not be called, the re gulation pro- vides, until those above them have been taken, unless by trade or edu- cation they are fitted for specialized army service, then they may be called sooner
 National purpose to see that no individuals evade service is expressed in the regulations, wherein are voiced the command of the government to peace officers of all descriptions, Unit ed States marshals, Secret Service men, and city police, that they shall assist exemption boards in scanning lists and combing out attempted evad- CTS of the registration.
 Figures available show that no oth- CT country participating in the great war has the actual resources in men that the United States has. Against the provost marshal generals esti- mate of 100000 for the American military class of 1918, which is added to the almost 10,000,000 total of 1917, can be placed the German annual in- crement of 600,000, the French of 400,- 900, and the Italian of 350,000. And all these classes in other countries have been called in advance.
