ELECTION LAWS WILL BE CHANGED BY BILL -NOW BEFORE SOLONS

Radical changes will be made in the election laws by. an amendment bill which was passed by the senate in the special session of the legislature and which will be passed by the house and signed by the governor, in all probability, because it is a bi-partisan measure which has the approval of the leaders of both parties. The bill includes the matter contained In eight administration election law bills designed to provide additional facilities necessary as a result of suffrage. Under the provisions of the measure election officials will be paid a lump sum for their services instead of receiving compensation by the day. The measure provides for two assitant clerks in each polling place and also

admits of changes in precinct boundaries by county commissioners as late as Aug. 8. Regulations for the preservacation of ballots are provided and absent voters' are permitted to mark their ballots with a black pencil or with Ink instead of with a blue pencil as at present. To Be Open 13 Hours. The amendment to the registration law, which was also agreed upon by the bipartisan committee of the senate was passed under suspension of the rules at the night session. The measure provides that registration places shall be open from 8 a. m. to 9 p. m. and that any voter can register on blanks that will be provided without going in person to the

registration place. Voters will have two opportunities to register, first on Sept. 4, and again on Oct. 4. Those who fall to register on one of those two days will be out of luck on the first Tuesday in November and will have no chance to exercise "self determination" in the matter of a president of the United States and a governor of the state. Women Easier to Register. It Is the belief at the state headquarters of the two parties that it will be easier to get women registered than men. The novelty of voting, it 13 believed by party chiefs, will appeal to women strong enoiiKh to cause them to register without solicitation. All women have not been keenly interested in thes uffrage movement, but now that suffrage is a fact, it is believed they will not hesitate to exercise the privilege or right, whichever it Is, to cast their ballots. legislation is pending in the present pppsion of the general assembly to provide for permanent registration, WRking registration unnecessary hereafter excrpt by voters who change precincts between elections. This legislation will not anply to this election, so a complete new registration must be made this fall.

Keep Your Soil Busy

E. E. RICE, Garden Supervisor. Have vegetables on the family table all winter by planting the places left vacant by the early harvested crops. During July and August beets, carrots, turnips, kohlrabi, winter radishes, endive, spinach and lettuce may be planted, say horticulturists at Purdue university. Just as soon as one crop is harvested another should be planted In Its place. The early vegetables are perhaps the least Important in supplying food for family use. It is the midseason and late- vegetables, the ones that are planted toward the close of

summer, that help most In loading our

tables In winter with canned goods

taken from our shelves or frsh-tast-

lng vegetables from the storage pit.

In planting succession crops the

vegetables should be rotated, follow

ing leaf crops with vegetables that are grown, for their seeds or roots and vice versa. Avoid as much as possible the

planting of any particular vegetable the second time in the same row. The rotation of crops will better utilize the plant food In the soil and will

tend to lessen the damage done by in

sects and diseases. Through August there is still time to put In quick maturing varieties of some vegetables. Beets and carrots will reach size sufficient to pay to plant them early in the month, while plenty of lettuce, spinach, turnips, kohlrabi, winter radishes, endive and Chinese cabbage may be raised before freezing weather, if planted in early August. Do not neglect to sow late crops In the garden.

POLAND CHINA MEN

WILL START. SHOWS

The Wayne county Poland China

breeders met at Centervllle on Friday

night to plan a great constructive

work, not merely for the present indi

vidual membership but for the benefit of the entire fraternity, and to make

Wayne a center of pure blood "black hogs.

It was realized that the association

was organized too late to make "snow

arrangements this season, but by next fall the organization will be in line to make exhibits at county and other

fairs. This will give the small breed'

ers a chance to make joint exhibits under the auspices of the association. A campaign for membership la to be

made when the rush of farm work is

over. In the meantime plans are evolv.

ing to hold one or more well adver

tised combination sales during the falL Another Meeting July 30. To further discuss and complete arrangements for a sale, or sales, which will promote the interest of the breed and benefit the man who has too few

topnotchers to hold an individual sale, a meeting will be held at Centervllle on July 30. There are a number of nationally known Poland breeders in Wayne now and 4he idea is to make this, a greater Poland center, a spot where men can find the very best of the line at auction, or at private sale throughout the year. Poland men seeking information, or wishing to join the organization should call on or address: Wood Eliason, president; Porter Pike, secretary, or Walter Fulghum, treasurer.

The Farm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn

"It took but one and one-half pounds of twine per acre to bind my wheat, this year, against about three pounds last year," said Harry Gilbert. "I have much less Btraw and it may develop at the machine that I have as much or even more wheat The heada are long and well filled. It seems, too. that

every farmer is cutting a better crop than he hoped for, even where the crop stands thineet." Louis Hill, managger of the Great Northern road, says he is expecting wheat to rule high until along in October, and for this reason. "The car situation will not permit free deliveries of wheat to millers and as the mills will largely defend on local and

nearby supplies, there will be compe

tition for the grain and good prices.

until there is a wider movement of the new crop. Break In Price of Corn. Many farmers who sold their hogs early and have been holding cprn for $2 and up, have been badly shaken up by the recent shaking down of the price. Every corn county in the country has its percentage of such men. There were many, however, who found they could not profitably feed $2 cprn and who were content to sacrifice their hogs and to take the market price on corn, when it brought much

more money in the "cash ring." When Argentine began laying down corn in New York at $1.60, much below our

prices, corn-using industries withdrew. The whisky men had very little use for corn and the bears began raiding it. Haying Half Done. Colonel Tom Conniff, who has been having a two weeks vacation, got home on Wednesday. He says that he haB sales booked for as early as Aug. 17, and several strung out into the fall and winter months. "The indications are," said he, "that we shall have a goodly number of sales thh season. In fact the farm sale is becoming a habit, you might say." Ask

ed as to wheat on his farm he stated that it appeared to be of good quality and that there ia considerable of it. "Our haying is about half dona."

SENATE BILL AID9 FORMER GOVERNOR CHASE'S WIDOW INDIANAPOLIS, July 17. One of life's tragedies came to light in the senate when a bill was passed unanimously under suspension of the rules, granting $100 a month for the remainder of her life to Mrs. Rioda Chase, widow of ex-Governor Ira J.

Chase. Mrs. Chase Is 86 years old t

and blind and without other means of support than the $30 a month pension which she receives from the govern

ment as the widow of a civil war 60ldier. She also served in that war as a nurse and contracted smallpox while caring for Union soldiers.
