Baled Straw Brings Record Price Here

Wayne county farmers will cash in twice on their grain crops. Straw, usually baled only in small quantities, was so good this year that practically every power outfit in the county, released from thrashing, has been baling straw. Straw is selling on the Richmond market for $6 a ton, and at Cincinnati for $7.50, say local market men. It costs about $2.25 to get it on the city market, however. Not much of it has yet been sold, farmers believing that prices will be better later. Baling costs about $2.50 per ton.

WILSON TAKES

Continued From Page One. late yesterday, is now before the president. He probably will give it close study before taking up the subject with Secretary Lansing. Accepts Lloyd George's View. In official and diplomatic circles here today, Premier Lloyd George's speech was regarded as voicing the views of the allies as to any discussion of peace. His accounting of food supplies and the shipping situation as affected by the submarine warfare was also regarded as indicative of Great Britain's safe position and strong attitude. It was thought here that one of the objects of the premier's speech was to sound out public sentiment preliminary to the formal responses to be made to the pope's note. It is likely that public men in other allied countries will follow suit

EXPLAINS POPE'S NOTE

ROME, Aug. 17. "The pope's peace proposals are true restoration in the sense of Lloyd George's last speech and constitute a peace as outlined by President Wilson while they also correspond to peace without annexations or indemnities supported in other quarters," says the Corpriere D'ltalia, the semi-official organ of the Vatican. The paper adds that the pope's note does not propose to return to the status quo and suggests the restoration of "the old kingdom of Poland" as it was before being dismembered by the three empires.

WHAT GERMAN PAPERS SAY

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 17. The Kreuz Zeitung of Berlin, a copy of which has been received here, says sympathy with the pope's wish for peace must disappear 'when it is seen that he has united himself with such conditions as restorations and no indemnities. The Berlin Taeglicher Hundschau considers that the nature of the peace outlined by the pope must compel the central powers to refuse the offices of th pontiff. This newspaper says it fears the affair will have an unhappy influence not only in Austria but among the Catholics in Germany. The Koelnische Zeitung, reserves judgment on the proposal until the full text of the pope's note is obtained.

Nevertheless, it considers the proposal i to enter Into negotiations on the basis j of the pontiff's program should not be ! rejected. j

CARDS MAILED OUT TO SELECTED MEN

Every man certified for service in. the new national army will in a few days receive a postcard asking him to come to the Pythian temple on South Eighth street, Monday evening, August 20, to arrange for preliminary training before going to the concentration camps. The cards read: "If you have preliminary military instructions before you arrive at the concentration camp you will at once be of great value and will have better opportunities of securing the positions of corporals and sergeants. "Several of our Richmond men who have had military experience have volunteered their services in giving you this military drill work. "These cards are being sent to every accepted man in Richmond arid it is up to you to attend the first meeting on Monday night Aug. 20, 1917 at 7:30 o'clock in K. of P. Temple, South 8th street. "This drill is being carried on under the auspices of the Military Training Camps Association of the United States."

RESTORE WRECKED CARS

Practically all of cars turned in from two wrecks have been repaired at the Pennsylvania car shops. Some of these were steel cars. All have been turned into the regular service as good as new. Work has been rushing in consequence of the great demand for cars at the army camps for supplies and material and in preparation for the big grain movements. g . BLOOMINGTON

Continued From Page One. 8:30 o'clock in the mornings and are back on their farms before the day has gotten a good start. Result of Co-Operatfon. The first "small-town" market is the outgrowth of co-operation between citizens of Bloomington and the Indiana university department of economics and social science. Prof. Frank T. Stockton, after a thorough investigation, was convinced that the idea of bringing the producer and consumer together in these war times could be done in small towns the same as in cities. The residents had started a movement to lower the prices of farm products, if possible and Prof. Stockton and C. M. Hepburn, of the law department of the university, joined the movement and the market was established. Ordinance Passed. Prof. Stockton applied the knowledge he had obtained after a careful study of retail markets and drafted a market ordinance, which was passed by council. Prof. Stockton was named chairman of a market advisory committee to oversee the market and study its problems. The ordinance provided for a growers' or producers' market to be held on Wednesday and Saturday mornings. A market space was set aside on one of the streets near a public square. One of the city policemen was made marketmaster and thus the city incurred no additional expense for its market. Only four growers appeared at the first market but with each succeeding market .day growers and producers drove in and now from twenty-five to thirty wagons are in the "farmers' line" on market days. Opens at 6 O'clock. The market opens at 6 o'clock in the morning. Most of the dealers are sold out in two hours. A Saturday night market is to be started at once, thus giving the wage earners of Bloomington and vicinity an opportunity to reap more benefits from the market. The customers at the market get strictly fresh goods. They have wide choice in purchasing foodstuffs. The prices are so far below the local merchants that some of them already are seeking to undersell the farmers on the days when they bring their produce to market.

FIND MANY BLACKBERRIES

Blackberry pickers state that a big crop has been the feature this season. The berries are unusually large, full flavored, and without the acid taste, and a great deal has been picked in the northern sections. The woods, the berry pickers say, are full of them. Berries are cheap on the markets.

I. VV. W. AGITATORS DRIVEN FROM YARDS

DETROIT, Mich., Aug. 17. Declaring their belief that Industrial Workers of the World are responsible for recurring labor difficulties at the plant of the Great Lakes Engineering Works near River Rouge, a suburb, authorities of that village have Issued notice that every member of the organization must leave immediately. Those who fail to obey the order, it was announced, will be rounded up and placed in jail. Three strikes have been called and adjusted in the shipyards in the last ten days. Although the company recently granted a general increase of 10 per cent, agitation among the workers, it Is said, has 'continued.

Continued From Page One. only the uncompromising action of local boards can prevent a new regulation on the subject of dependency which shall reduce exemptions for dependency to a far more restricted class and to a very necessitious and clearly defined circumstances." The ruling of the general is: "Section 2 of the selective-service

law exempts no person from military service on the ground of dependency. It only authorizes the president to exclude or discharge from, draft 'those in a status with respect to persons dependent upon them for 6upport which renders their exclusion or discharge advisable,." Army Is Necessary. The controlling necessity is to raise an army. It is advisable to disturb dependents just as little as the necessity of raising an army will permit. To this end section 18 of the regulations was compiled carefully and after the most earnest consideration, i - Reports are to the effect that in some districts as high as 80 per cent of persons called before local boards are filing claims for discharge on the grounds of dependent relatives. Such a percentage of claims, when viewed in connection with all availagle statistics indicated beyond question that advantage is being taken of the provisions of the law and regulations which were intended to reduce to a minimum the misery at home normally attendant upon war." The ruling continues that "in the absence of a stern repression by the local boards of unmeritorious claims" a new law may be made, revoking the privilege of exemption or dischrge "since any such percentage of exemptions as reports of claims indicate would nullify the law and prevent the raising of an army.
