70 have his wheat threshed, a neaVy
snow having caught him, and this con-
d,tiou almost forced him into the hog
business. He hustled around aud
bought up a bunch Of hogs which he
turned into cash few days ago as

Mr.. sorensen gives 1t as his opinion
that the unthreshed wheat makes bet-
ter food for growing hogs than me
grain. especially during the cold vim
tor weather. as it keeps them rustiina
all the time. There is practically nc

REGIsTI Z THIS MONTH
some Phases OF the New Election Law
Post Up On Changes.

Some very material changes were
made in the election law By the last
legislature. and, when they are prop
erly understood. these changes will no
doubt prove of benefit to the average
elector.
One OF the changes, and the first
one to be considered by the people.
is in the matter Of registration. The
new law provides that all voters who
we're registered at the last general
election need not register again so
long as they remain in the same pre-
cinct, but should they move TO an
other precinct, or should a new pre-
cinct be created such voters may Sc
cure transfers if they are within the
same county. Only new voters in the
county will be required to register.
and they may do so before a justice
OF the peace, notary public or before
the clerk OF the District Court. pre-
ferably the latter If it is convenient
10 do so, for the reason that the other
officers named receive a fee while the
clerk does not. so in the interest OF
economy # is best to register before
the clerk.
Registration must be made during
the month Of July. for according to the
provisions OF the new law. the clerk
is allowed thirty days in which TO
make returns 70 the election officers
of the various precincts Of the coun-
