l Notice of New Registration

November election is now open at the office of the County Recor- der, and will continue until ten days before the county primary election, or until August 18th, at which time the books will be closed for seventeen days, and no registration will be made until September 18th, at which time the books will again be open and reg istering continue until October 18th, when it will be closed until May I, 1916.
 The qualifications of collectors are as follows: Must be twenty one years of age or over, a citizen of the United States either by birth or naturalization; resident of Arizona for one year prior to election, and of the County and Precinct thirty days; must be able to read the Constitution of the United States in the English lam guage and write his or her name, unless physically unable to do SO.
 If elector is a naturalized citizen he must present his second or final papers to the registration officer, else he cannot be regis tered. If, however, such papers are lost or destroyed, the elector will be permitted to register upon execution and filing with the reg istration officer an affidavit giving the time, place and court of issu- ance of such papers, and the fact of their loss or destruction and circumstances connected there with.
 The above applies to women as we'll as men, except that women of foreign birth become naturaHzed citizens upon their marriage to citizens of the United States either by birth or naturalization, or if already married the naturalization of the husband carries with it citi- zenship of the wife.
 A person must register in the precinct where he or she resides, to enable him or her to vote at any primary or election. The law by which a person, if not on the register, could register at the polls has been omitted from the code now in force, and now in order to vote at any primary or election, the electors. name must appear on the register of the precinct wherein he or she resides. If after registering, the eleotor moves to another precinct or county, he or she must cancel his or her first registration and then re-register in the precinct or county where he or she then resides. A person must not register more than once, without first oancelling his or her prior registration. To register more than once is a criminal of- fense and subjects the offender to a fine in sum not exceeding one thousand dollars, or imprisonment not exceeding five years, or both.
 Any elector unable to appear at the Recorders office may register before any Justice of Peace and in Precincts where there are no Jus tice of Peace there will be special deputies appointed to make the registration.
 There is. ample time for every elector to register, provided that every elector does not put it of until the last day. In order tc facilitate the work in the office, would request and urge that every elector register as soon as possi ble.

the delay and expense involved was
the fact that the egg which started
down the line from the hen as "a
strictly fresh" egg had little chance
OF reaching Its destination as anything
but n bad egg.
Wastefui, Expensive Process.
The whole process is wasteful. Last
summer in Missouri literally hundreds
OF wagon loads OF eggs were driven of
into the woods and dumped simply
because they had gone bad upon the
hands OF those who were not able TO
market them promptly. Then too the
loss and damage from breakage is con.
siderable. and n authority has est.
mated that the handling OF eggs by
those who pack and ship them Is 80 In
expert that each year seventy.hve mil.
lion dollars worth are broken and lost
in transportation.
ls II any wonder that when eggs I'm.
ally reach the consumer they often
cost him more than twice what the
farmer received for them? Is II n
wonder that the farmer Is dissatisfied
WIN the price he receives when II Is
sometimes less than one.half what the
consumer pays. Is II any wonder the
city man kicks at the price which he
pays, kicks again when he finds that
the high priced eggs are bad eggs.
A Better. More 6uslnessIike Way.
Contrast this method OF handling
with the way II Is done by the cooper.
alive organizations abroad. Denmark

Every farmer gathers every egg from

In Germany the eggs are marketed
much as they are In Denmark. In the
n province OF Hanover there arc for
example n hundred forty.two coop
erative poultry societies. Some OF
these combine the breeding OF poultry

izing therefrom ove $500, 0OO. 90 for
distribution among their cooperative
members.
To belong to the society each farmer
pays an entrance fee OF twenty-five
cents; shares in the society cost each
$1.25 Of which. however, only twelve
cents Is paid down. the balance being
gradually paid by a distribution OF div.
idends upon the trading profits. The
cooperative society at Hanover owns

which 100000 eggs are sold each wear.

SOME ESSENTIALS OF SUCCESS WITH HENS
II
(py PROF.. @. NJ. TuRplND

Dy PROF. @. II. TCRPIN)
A good breed OF fowls properly bred
Is the first essential Of successful &
prodection. For egg production alone
the White or the brown Leghorns are
unsurpassed, For the general farmer
and others desiring both meat and
eggs, White or Barred Rocks, White
Wyandottes and Rhode Island Reds
head the list. Keep only one breed
and breed these by continuous selec.
ton for vigor and egg production.
No hens should be kept for laying
purposes after their second laying
year. On an average hens will lay 70
per cent as many eggs during their
second laying year as they will during
the first. After this they will seldom
lay enough eggs at market prices to
pay for their feed.
The ability 10 hatch and rear young
stock Is a third essential. For the
general farmer keeping not more than
M or two hundred fowls, the natural
method OF Matching and brooding can.
be improved upon. For those In
the business OF egg production on a
larger scale, incubators and brooders
are q necessity.
A good poultry house, one that Is
always dry inside and admits plenty
OF fresh air and sunshine without
