Synopsis New Registration
 Measure

Following is a synopsis of the new registration law:
 Every male citizen of the United States who has resided in the state one year and the county and precinct where he claims his vote thirty days next preceding the election, and who can write his name and the constitution of the United States in such man. ner as to show he is not prompt ed or reciting from memory, may register. Physical disability ex- cuses the educational tests, and the usual exceptions of insane and those convicted of felony are made.
 2.-The registration books are open from May 15 to October 15 of each even numbered year, ex- cept that they are closed ten days before the regular primary and not opened till six days after.
 3.-The county recorder, his regular deputies, the justices of the peace in each precinct, and such notaries as are appointed by the recorder are registration officers.
 4.-The county recorder keeps a general county register and a separate one for each precinct. No register is printed by the county as in the past.
 5.-An elector registering gives his name, age, occupation and residence, and signs his affidavit three times. He also declares he can read the constitu- tion as required by law, and if he does not sign personally gives the reason. The printed regist- ration blank contains provisions for the above information. The registering officers certifies that the elector has passed the read ing test, which must be given by the officers, and gives a physical description of the elector on the affidavit, including height, nationally and any dis tinguishing marks. This is in case any one but the recorder re- gisters the elector. If the re- gistration is made before the re- corder the original county and precinct registers are signed. in- stead of the affidavit. When an affidavit is used copy must be given the elector by the register ing officers.
 6. 6.-Registration may be chang ed within the time during which the register remains open, by sworn request on proper form, made before registration officer showing the date of change of residence. An elector cannot re- gister in a new precinct without canceIling any previous registra- tion.

Land Commission Executing
 Leases

The state land commission has just completed the forms of ap- plication for lease of Arizona school or university lands, and is now engaged in sending to every leaseholder a copy of the applica- tion for lease. together with 8 blank permit, a printed copy ot the land law, and an explanatory letter, with the request that the applications be made out as speedily as possible and forward ed to the state land commission, a duplicate copy being retain ed in the office of the board of su- pervisors in the county in which the lease is made.
 The amount of the rental charged for the school land is fixed by the county boards of supervisors and afterwards ap- proved by the land commission. The rental of the land. that is, the amount fixed for the yearly use of the land; must be forward ed to the land commission with the application. The permit is then issued, signed by the chair man and secretary of the con- mission. The permits, however, only last until March 15, 1913. as it is thought that by that time some further land legisla- ton will have passed. If how ever, no additional land legisla- ton is passed at that time it will be an easy matter to renew the permit.
 In making an application for the school land, the applicant agrees not to sublet, or assign, the same. as any such action on his part will lead to a revocation or cancellation of the permit, and he further agrees to surren- der the land to the state peace ably, it being understood, how ever, that he does not waive any rights he may have for compen- sation for improvements he may place on the land.
 In making the application for the school land the applicant de- scribes the land minutely, as we'll as stating upon the application what his purpose is in making such an application, and what he purposes to do with the land. If a citizen of the United States, a bona fide resident of the tract he proposes to lease, and how long he has resided on the land, if he has been heretofore an oc-

Chemical Canning Compounds.

At this season of the year it might
be we'll ito call the attention Of house
wives and others, the nature Of certain
substances which are sold by agents
and others to be used in the prepara-
tion Of canned fruit and vegetables
Such compounds or preservatives usu-
ally contain among other substances
borax or its deritive, salicylic acid, or
other drugs Of like character all OF
which are detrimental to health. No
other preservatives than those known
as the natural preservatives, viz, su.
gar, salt, spices, vinegar and some
times alcohol, should be used in pre-
pairing canned goods for home con.
sumption. These with the accom-,
panying sterilization by heat make a
wholesome and safe food In a word
the housewife needs no drugs or chem
1icals when sound ripe fruits or vege-
tables are used for preserving or can
ming.

big job on his hands to arrange the
different exhibits, but he is an enthu-

The exhibit will be much better than
