Selec- . , j tion day for the new rational army, arproachinjr rapidly as the ocal exemption boards in the various. cations are that the drawing v-i!l be hold r.ext week, but no ofiiciul state ment lias been made as to th? war i.e nari mcr.t's plans. Administration oilicials still main tain strict ?:lenee as to the mother to be followed. It is understood, how ever, that it is proposed to place in a inci'le jury wheel in Washington one complete set of numbers. When a number is taken from the wheel the man in each exemption dis trict whose card bears that serial numeer will tie ciratieu. inns as eaca number is drawn approximately o'Vj no men will be drafted, or one in .eh exemption district.

Various ways of niakincr the draft s fair as possible have been sacr resied. The matter has had Presi dent Wilson's personal consideration in line with his pledge that the method- employed would be just in every respect. While the first contingent of the new army under the bill is limited to oOD.noo men, an additional 12"i.0o or 1.'0,P'm will be needed to make up the reserve battalions of this force. Ire serve battalions are row beincr re cruited for the national pruard when it is drafted into the federal service. The organization of the national army will be on the same basis. Number of Exemptions. It may be necessary also to draft cnouqrh men to fill up the re.-rulars and national pruard to war strength, although no decision to this end has been reached as yet. The re.ztilars are now close to war strertrth and the iruard units are rccru'tirjr rapidly. If possible they will be completed by the war volunteer system. There is one other consideration which will affect the total number of men to be drawn. Opinion varies as to the number of exemptions which must be made for the various causes outlined in the extended regulations A roujrh estimate of at least oO per cent exemptions for physical or other reasons has been jrenerally employed in computing the probable size of the task before the exemption boards. .May Call Million Mm. It is rot known whether the crov- ernrncnt plans to call double the num ber actually needed on the first selec tion in order to provide against ihes? exemptions. Possibly only the smaller number will be taken, to be fiiled out by later selections until the ranks are fail. If the exemption factor is al lowed for the first drawing, however, it f-ccms likely that 1,000,000 or 1, ofO.OOO names would be provided for at that time, the men to appear foi" examination in the order in which which they were drawn and the cards cf thore not reached in any district where the quota was filled before they came up before the board to be re turned. Another factor which is beinrr worked out in the selection resrula tions is the provision of the law re cuirinrr that each trtate to jriven credit at the drawing for the num ber cf men it has supplisd as volun teers in the regular army or the na tional guard.

FERED YOUTH TO TO BE READY Ciowder Notifies Eligible Men lo Ke Prepared to Appear Kefore Koards. Iccrr.nitnt Circular lints Not Cover Summoning of Persons For '. Actual Service. Washington, P. C. July 8. An ther step in biildinir the selective conscription army was taken today .vi: t ie distribution of a circular by r-vo-t Marshal General Crowderg notifying the registered men to hold them, elves in readiness for appear ance before the . boards which will con. but examine. ions and consider exemptions. ' How cy v.h'-n the jrovcrnment will select the men to be examined is not detailed in the circular, but it is r vcalcd tntvt rejristrations cards m each county or city jurisdiction are to be numbered with red ink and that "as soon as the drawing is complete lists shov.-in.jr in the press and will be posted at the cilice of each local board. it already lias hc-on an nounced that the selection will take place in Washington and the creneral presumption has been that some de vie idmilar to a jury wheel will be employed. Exemptions are to be determined by the local boards, the circular shows, only for the previously an nounced specified causes, such as re sponsibility for the support of rela tives and not for agricultural or in dustrial reasons. Seven days after designations are posted will be al lowed for fdincr claims. There will be an additional allowance of ten days for filimr proofs, and the board must decide within three days after the proof is filed. When the case of any registrant has been disposed of so far as the lo cal board is concerned, the names of those? not exempted or discharged wil be posted. Claims for exemption for agricultural or industrial work must be made within five days after such nostins: and must pro direct to the hicrher board sittin.cr for the judicia district. Appeals for the rulings of local boards must be made to the hurhcr b:ards within ten days. The circular docs not cover the summoning: of the men for actua service, pointing out that selection and acceptance does not mean an im mediate summons. Even the time of the drawing is not specified, but issuance of the cir cular is taken to mean that the worl cf selection may be in progress with in a few days September 1 has been tentatively considered as the date for assembling the first half million men in cantonments for training.

Our druggist advised me to take Chamber Iain's Tablets. I took a bottle home and the first dose relieved me wonder fully, and I kept on taking them until I was cured."

The price of the attachment is $145 on Fords, much cheaper than any other similar attachment. The Pullford will do the work of four horses and does not eat when it is not working. If you could buy four good horses for $ 1 45 you'd think they were mighty cheap. For practical work on the average farm the Pullford is the very best investment the farmer can make. It will pull your binder, do your plowing, discing, harrow ing, pull your manure spreader, haul your heavily loaded wagons to town; in fact, it will do about all the work your horses will do except planting and cultivating your corn. The Pullford will pull any load that your two best teams will pull and do it easy. We will demonstrate the Pullford in a few days. Watch the Plattsmouth Journal for the Notice.
