The discussion of changes in the
draft law TO create a larger reser-
voir of available man power, and es-
pecially to enlarge Class I, made up
Of men who may be ca1led with the
minimum disturbance of business and
at the smallest sacrifice Of earnings
upon which families depend, makes
10 plain that many members Of Con-
press are inclined to look at the mat
ter sentimentally, objecting 20 draft
ing men "below the voting age" and
that the War Department, rejecting
the views of army officers, Is inclined
to look at drafting from the purely
fixed belief that man below voting
age at the time he becomes n regis
trant is more useful to an army than
the man who is beyond 40 ut the
time he becomes registrant. There
are two sides TO all questions and It
is not difficult to understand why
there should be two sides in this ar
gument, or why the Congressman
should be on the side he is on and
the army officer on the side he Is on,
there being of course exceptions.
The registrant who is 45-using
the maximum proposed draft age
might be AZ or older before seeing
actual service. Many registrants un-
der existing draft law were not
called until this summer, almost a
wear after their registration. Many
officers graduated from training
camps a year ago still are in canton
ments. The road from civil life

fighting is not invariably direct or

It is conceivable that if the draft
age should be extended in both d.
rections, upward and downward, the
army makers might have their way.
They might so instruct draft boards
and medical examiners that few old
err men and many young men would
be called. Seemingly they do not
wish to rely upon such a process of
elimination, obviously one which
might not eliminate older men to the
extent desired. They prefer advance
elimination and complete elimination
of man power which would deterio-
rate during the period of training
and subsequent service while the

THE SUGAR ALLOWANCE


The Lincoln county. grocers are in
receipt of the following circular,
which all loyal ones will follow to
Enclosed please find the certifi-
Gates for your August allotment Of
sugar, which represents the entire
amount Of household sugar with
which your trade can be supplied by
you during the month of August
This is a severe cut in the amount
originally allotted per month to your
trade. II is made necessary by the
sinking by submarines of large guam
titles of sugar, by the loss Of beet
sugar factories in Europe and by
other reasons disclosed in newspaper
publications issued from Washington.
To enable you to supply your reg
ular trade, l suggest that YOU sell
only to your regular customers, and
do not allow your sugar to be taken
from you by foaters. You should
keep a book or card system alpha
betically arranged, in which you
should register the name of the head
of the household, the number Of
persons in his family, and the dates
on which you have sold him two
pounds, If a city customer, or five
pounds If a country customer; and
you should limit him to two pounds
per month per person in his family
as a total. This can be done by loose
leaf book, or by card system, and
must be open to inspection Of the
Food Administrator during all bust
ness hours. If you run out of sugar
it can not be resupplied, except as
you may have sold sugar on canning
certificates issued by the county
Food Administrator. or his deputies.
This sugar will be resupplied when
possible. The allowance to your
trade is made on the basis of your
report to this office of your sales in
April, May and June, 1918, less the
amount Of sugar you had on hand
July LIST. 1t does not take into con
sideration any suggestions you have
made in your report as to your re-
quirements for July, August and Sep
TENDER, as the entire allotment is
based on your actual use in the pre-
vious months.

MAKING DIAMONDS OF IRON
British Scientist Has Discovered n
Method OF Extracting Stones.

LONDON. June S--Real diamonds.
aruficially made, were exhibited in
connection with the annual MAY lee
ture before the British Institute of
Medals. The speaker. sir Charles A.
Parsons, who Is widely known for
his work in developing the turbine
engine. told of experiments which
showed that diamonds exist In iron.
The diamonds displayed were few
and small, and 1t was stated that
they were produced at enorm Gus
cost Only the resources of a great

ments possible However. the lee
turer believed that with the advance
of chemistry and electrical engineer

make diamonds than dig them.
A method OF making diamonds Of
commercial size and quantity was
suggested by Sir Charles His plan
was to submit large mass Of iron,
alloyed with other elements 10 heat
After the molten metal had set but
when still at a temperature perme-
able to gas, It should be subjected to
carbon monoxide at a pressure Of
about 1000 atmospheres. Under
this process, he believed, segrega-
tions forming into diamonds might
take place slowly within the mass.
One source of diamonds might be
attributed, he said, to prehistoric

Boise will furnish eight and Ada

state is 246. The men will be called

the new plan covering the apportion-
ment, which means the men will be
called from class l without respect
to any credits.
There is prospect that the Boise

man man goes to war as a subject
under the draft. will have a chance
to show his patriotism. The draft bill

INCREASE FOR WATER

The Ada County commissioners
have set the maximum rate which

trict may charge for rental water at
$2.70 per inch, which is 45c more
than the rate charged last year.
The directors of the district re-
Gently petitioned the commissioners
for higher rate, contending that in
creased costs made greater revenue
from rental lands imperative. The
order of the commissioners states in
view of the fact that the rate $2.25)
heretofore fixed and charged TO rem
tai users has been considered equit-
able and satisfactory, and its being
conceded by all parties hereto that
the actual expenses of administra-
tion, labor and materials have mater
tally increased, it appears 10 the
board that some slight increase in

sary in order to meet existing condi-
