name, but also his residence, his bust

The language of the statute is that
the elector shall add to his signature,
and does not provide that anyone else
can do this for him. Yet your commit
tee finds that a great ma aiority of the
signatures found in this purpol ted pc
tition absolutely and entirely fail to
comply with this plain, mandatory and
imperative provision of the statute.
Your committee further finds that
these forgeries last mentioned consist
ed in some person other than the signer
of the purported petition having al
tered the same after the signature
sheets had been signed by the purport-
ed signers thereof, by adding to the
same.
BULK OF SIGNATURES ILLEGAL.
1t appears to your committee, and
your committee finds, that of the S,SS4
pnrported signatures to said petition
nearly 6,30O of the same are absolutely
illegal under cited sections of the law.
This leaves about 1000 purportea sign
ers who have furnished the ilentitioa-
ton required by law.
Your committee further finds that of
this number of :, 900 purported signer S

have signed the purported petition
more than once, and only through lack
of time does your committee feel justi-
fled in failing to ascertain and report
the exact number and exact instances
OF fraud in this respect. Among these
instances that your committee has so
far ascertaiDed are III. G. Saober. VIII o
signs as No. 10. and again as No 1896:
G. II. Cassill, who signs as No. 4 .335 and
3,oiO; O. Nj. O5bon, who signs as 3o7 and

Your committee further reports that
there have haen filed with your com
lnittee afGdavits showing that this pur-
ported petition has iii a number of
instances been signed by persons who
are not electors of this state or of any
county or precinct therein. Among
these instances are those of siyners
who are minors, others who are not
residents or electors of any county
within this state, but having their resi-
dence elsewhere.
Your committee further reports in
this regard that it has been represent
ed to your committee that in large
number of instances these signature

received a stated compensation for
each signature obtained That frauds

POULTRY NOTES.

From the Farmer and Breeder.
We are pleased 20 give our readers an
other splendid article on turkey culture
from the pen OF Mrs. Charles Jones or
Compton, Ill. She not only knows how to
raise the best, but also knows how to tell
others how to raise them. Her advertise
ment appears in another column and we
can heartily recommend her TO our read
ers for not only Bronze turkeys but for
Barred Plymouth Rock and Buff Cochin
fowls as well as Pekin ducks and Chester
White swine. This article deserves a
careful reading by every one who rears
turkeys.
Look well TO the grit box and see that all
fowls have clean, dry quarters during the
changing spring weather. The vitality of
the chicks next summer will depend on
the way you use them now.
Look out for lice and examine the hens
that are laying now and clear out the lice
so that when the hens begin to SIT there
will be q minimum OF lice on them. Be
snre that small numbers are DESTROYED
before the hatch comes OF. Kill the lice
off or they Will kill the chicks.
Pen OF the best now for the seasons
stockers n II there is no way 10 pen the
best sell or eat the poorest. There Is no
economy In rearing stock from inferior
~parentage. The best IL none too good.
Don't be st.ngy, hut have plenty or good
vigorous males. Iwould recommend one
male at least TO every twelve mems on the
range and one to ten IL n1ne or even
better, one to eight. for best results.
