Judge Golf has so far abattd the
rigor and the vigor and the nigger OF
his registration injunction as to pass
an order allowing offices of registra-
ton in the State to be opened on the
first Monday in June. AS conse-
quence, our County Supervisor, Mr.. NJ.
Gary Cauehman, was in his office on
Monday of thlSweek We half suspect
however, that Gary would have open
ed up anyway.

An Experiment in Oats.
Mr.. w. L. Walton, of the Meeting
Street section, has the finest oats prob
ably in the county. He sowed twice
last fa11 end winter notwithstanding
were killed by the cold weather. In
the early spring of this year he drilled
thirty acres in oats using 200 pounds
of guano per acre, the drills being
about eight (S) inches apart. At This
writing the outlook for an abundant
yield is very promising. Perhaps in
this experiment Of Farmer Waltons
we have the solution of the oat prob
lem of how to avoid the freezes and
put old winter IN the hole. We shall
watch friend Walton's experiment
with great interest.
