DRAFT LOTTERY m BY GROIVDER FOR NEXT WEEK

Will Determine Order of 13,000,000 Men Registered Sept. 1 2. WASHINGTON'. Sept. 25 The national lottery which in a measure will determine the order of the calling of the 13,000,000 men between 18 and 45 yqars of ape who registered Sept. 12 probably will not be held before next week. Officials had hoped to fix a date late this week, but this plan Is understood to have been abandoned in order that additional time may be given local boards to correct any errors made in assigning serial numbers toi the registrants. jSince men between 19 and 36 are to be the first railed to the colors, the drawing will have less effect upon determining the order of the call than did that of the nearly 1,000,000 men w)io turned 21 before last June 5. Ofder numbers for all the 13.000,000 nwn will be drawn, but youths of IS add men between 36 and 45 will not btf classified until the boards have gen classification to all the men between 19 and 36 who are the first to receive their questionnaires. In the meantime many of the 19 to 36 classes will have been Inducted Into service. j Good Progress is Made. .Reports received by Gen. Crowder, provost marshal, from nearly all states indicated that satisfactory progbjfo is being made by local boards in attaching serial numbers to the registration cards, but in one or two instances mistakes by local boards have nftide necessary the renumbering of the cards for all registrants under their Jurisdiction. No date for the drawing can be fixed until this work 1 completed and the serial numbers posted, and while this may be done this week. It Is understood that Gen. Crowder will allow several days for the discovery of any errors before holding the drawing. ;One New England board, before attaching the numbers, classified all registrants by age. making a separate group of 18-year-old registrants, a second for registrants between 19 and 37. nid a' third for those from 37 to 43 years old. This was held to introduce ft! possibility of affecting unfairly the ofder of the call, though the intention ws merely to facilitate the additional wWk of classification to be done later, and orders were issued to renumber tlje entire group. (Only five states have now to report the totals of the registration. Unless t!)eir returns show sharp decreases

under the offic al estimate the total registration will exceed tho original estimate of 12,778,000.

Weird Religious Fads Spread Over All Parts of Germany

AMSTERDAM, Sept. 25 Weird outbursts of religious mania are reported from many parts of the German empire. The commander of the 19th army corps at Leipzig has found It necessary to prohibit 'meetings of a sect known as the "Little Flock," which originated at Meerane. Its head posej as the Messiah and pronounces "sentences" from his "judgment seat," from which he "separates the sheep from the goats." The new "Messiah" has achieved some measure of popularity by his attacks on the established clergy on the ground that they draw stipends, which he says, the apostle, Paul never did; neither does he, himself. The "Little Flock" craze, it seems, has spread to such an extent in Saxony, especially among impressionable young people, that the authorities have had to interfere. Many extreme pan-Germans have given way to a heathenish mysticism. They openly propagate a revival of the pagan worship of the ancient Teutons, including offerings to Wotan. A modern offshoot to this queer movement is headed by. one Ludwig Neuner, who definitely renounces Christianity on the superfluous plea that it is "foreign to. the German

ideal." Family life is out of date, says Neuner, and children should be the charges of the state. For prayer, Neuner proposes the following substitute, which the Roman Catholic Germania appropriately calls a "prayer ersatz" or substlue: Bodily and menal "uplifts" movements every morning; baths, deep breathing, song and dance, reading of valuable poetry, contemplation of truly artistic objects of art; training of will power by auto suggestion, etc. The Roman Catholic Bavarian Courier suggests an additional movement, tapping of the forehead morning, noon and night

LAFAYETTE, Ind., Sept. 25. "In sowing wheat, know what the fly-free date is and sow after that date," Is the word to Indiana farmers from D. S. Myer, of Purdue University, state leader in the campaign to increase the acreage and yield of wheat for next year. This warning was given following receipt of word from a number of counties that farmers were sowing wheat earlier this year than usual because of fears of rhe labor shortage. Early sowing multiplies the danger of the Hessian fly, which has wrought such havoc in Indiana fields in past years. This year it was found in only a few places. To avoid danger from this insect, a chart prepared by government entomologists shows the p.pproximate date It is safe to sow and avoid the fly. This chart sets forth the following dates after which farmers should sow: Those north of a line running from Fort Wayne to Winamac, pfter September 25; those north of a line from Winchester to Covington, after September 30; those north of a line from Lawrenceburg to Sullivan, after October 5; those south of this line after October 10. However, sowing should be done as soon after that date as possible. These dates vary a few days from year to year, depending on the seasonal conditions, the entomologists have ascertained, but farmers in. the various counties may obtain definite data regarding the safe date for sowing from the county agricultural agents.

County Agent News

Indiana corn helps feed the world. Seed selected before freezing weather and stored properly means a big crop next year, with more food nnd more money for the producer. Get your seed now.

Frank Petro, superintendent of the County Infirmary, has selected twelve bushels of selected seed corn. He says he is not going to pay. some profiteer $25 a bushel for seed corn next spring. This is a slogan that could well be adopted by every farmer in Wayne county. If your corn is ripe begin selecting at once. If you are growing a late variety of corn see your neighbor and make arrangements to get your supply direct from the field.

All poultrymen who will need chestnut size anthracite coal next spring, please send name and address and the amount needed to J. C. Kline, county agent, Richmond, Ind. This information will be sent to the federal fuel administrator for Indiana and a sufficient supply will be reserved.

In dairying, large production and profit go hand in hand. Breeding furnishes the most economical way to obtain large producing cows.

CICCOLINI CHALMERS LAZZARI MATZF.NAUER SCOTT DB TREVILLE Five Other Great Opera Stars Hear Lazzari In Tone Test

CAROLINE Lazzari, contralto of the Chicago Opera Company, is endowed with a glorious voice which is fast gaining for her a world reputation. She is the latest acquisition to the Edison group of stars. The drawing which is made from an actual photograph depicts the famous diva conducting a tone test before one of the most critical audiences which ever witnessed such an event. One after another she sang the beautiful arias which have brought the world to her feet; sang them in unison with the instrument, ceasing occasion

ally to see if her listeners could detect when it was she they heard and when the New Edison. And of this renowned group, trained to note the subtlest shades of tone color, not one could distinguish the artist's living voice from f the instrument's Re-Creation of it. To develop a phonograph capable of meeting this test Mr. Edison spent more than three million dollars in research work. The result is the only instrument which can sustain the searching test of direct . comparison with living singers
