Provost Marshal General Crowder has urged prompt action by the local boards in certifying as held for ser vice, men who make no claim for dis charge or exemption. A daily report to the district boards is required, at the close of each day's work, atid, similarly, district boards will report each night to the adjutant general the men finally accepted. "The government will call upon lo cal and district boards to furnish one- third of their quota on September 1," General Crowder's message' says, un der the heading: "The first call to the colors." The following the requirements for daily reports of the progress as out lined, which General Crowder says are inserted to "point the way to ex pedition and in order to insure that no state and no local board shall be placed in the unenviable position of not being able to answer 'Here with the full third of its quota on the day named." Local boards are urged not to stop examining men when the quota has been reached. The boards should be men have been certified,, the state ment says. In another .supplemental ruling, General Crowder states that men serving prison terms for misdemean ors are not exempt by reason of that fact.

A pleasant, refreshing beverage and a nourishing food combined in one product is found in buttermilk. It contains practically all the food ma terials of whole milk with the excep tion of the fact, most of which is re moved in the process of churning. Buttermilk contains about 3 per cent of protein, nearly 5 per cent of carbo hydrates in the form cf mill? sugar, 0.7 per cent of mineral constituents, andO.5 per cent of fat. Thus a quart of buttermilk furnishes slightly more than an ounce cf protein, one of the chief body builders. The increasing consumption of but termilk testifies to its popularity as a beverage. People are beginning to realize that it is much better to drink a glass of milk or buttermilk than it is to consume other drinks having lit tle food value.
