MUST VOTE FOR FULL
NUMBER OF VACANCIES
City Democratic Committee Opposes
"Single-Shot" Plan AS Unfair
to Candidates.
HULCE DECLARED NOMINEE
Candidates for City Committee in
Lee and Madison Wards Declared
Electcd-Sine Candidates in Clay;
Eight in jefferson.

By resolution adopted by tho City
democratic Committee, voters at the
primary on August must cast their
oallots for the full complement Of
vacancies to be filled under each head
otherwise the judges of election will be
directed not TO count ballots which do
aot comply with the ruling.
In other words. as there are five
places TO be filled in the House OF Dele
gates. the voter must indicate his
preference for five of the nine candi-
dates: for the State Senate. two of tho
four candidates, and for the Admins
lrative Board. two Of the three candi-
dates. This eliminates the so-called
single shot" idea. which is considered
Unfair. ipasmuch as il permits n clique
OF voters TO single out one or more
candidates for their ballot and give
them an advantage over their oppo-
ncnts
clyde w. Saunders. chairman OF the
committee. was instructed to consult
with AttorncyGencral Pollard and
ascertain II such requirement is legal
under the new primary law. No ruling
has been made on this point by the
Attorney-GeEerars office. but the i'm
preston prevails that the law permits
committees to make such additional
regulations for the conduct Of the pri-
mary as il may see fit. and which do
not conflict with the provisions of tho
act itself. Assistant Acknowledgement

OF Interest to Our Farmers

The final reports of various near by
states concerning the precaution and
prevention of disease common to do
nestle animals and poultry can be
eliminated to a very small degree by
freely using white wash in and about
barns, poultry houses, hog pens and
general farm buildings. In our adjoin-
ing counties there has been consider
able activity among the farmers with
high pressure spraying machines which
are best for this work, as the mixture
gets into cracks where mites, lice and
vermin hide and hatch. White wash is
inexpensive and instant death to these
common pests and also destroys their
eggs leaves the building, clean, pure.
white and sanitary. We have quite a
number of our our farmers in Howard
county who have used white wash and
indorse it very highly. stating they
have had but little disease of any form
since first application. I'VE therefore
urge all owners of live stock and poul-
try to investigate this and assist this
movement.

AS we look at it, one of the wisest
provisions of the bill is the one which
permits public school teachers to take
the initiative. Public school teachers
more than any other persons know the
ne eds Of children of the community in
which they work, and as rule they
know the circumstances of the parents
as well. We hope that teachers every
where will take note of this and if they
have knowledge oflchildren whoproper-

act, they will bring the matter to the
attention of the court in the county in
which they reside, and thus secure for

The provisions of the bill may be thus

the case, the parents and the county
attorney being notified. The judge is
empowered to appoint local physician
to examine the child and report to him,
on blanks furnished by the state for
this purpose, concerning the condition
of the child and whether in his opinion
there is probability that he may be
helped by proper treatment. If it ap-
pears to the court that such is the case,
and the parents give their consent, the
child may then be committed to the
