Times Recorder.

The B. A. Thomas Hog Powder has q record
of 95 per cent cures of Hog Cholera If you feed
your hogs as directed. you need never fear hog
cholera nor any other hog disease. And the
directions are very simple, just about what you
are doing. Plus few cents worth of Thomas
Hog Powder in the feed twice week.
Usually though, Cholera gets in before we
know it, Then it requires close attention to each
hog-each hog must be dosed-and if you viii
dyse them as directed you viii save better than
80 per cent. If you don't the B. A. Thomas
medicine costs you nothing. We--not some s
tant manufacturer-pay your money back.

F0RESEES CONTESTS
 OF TODAY'S PRIMARY

In communication to The Graphic which he heads "Confusion for the Voter and Possible Contests for Can didates," Judge D. J. Kerwin says:
 This communication is simply to call attention to the impossibility of compliance on the part of the voter, as we'll as candidates. with the eleventh announcement tha' the municipal primary election would be held under the new election law. To do this will simply mean confuNion to the voter, noncompliance with the law up to this date by those who should have adopted this law in the first instance and undoubtedly every chance to every defeated candidate to contest the election and make it a nullity.
 "This law, in preparing for the pri- mary, has not been complied with, and the election should be held in conformity with the law under which it was called Of the new primary law, section 4 and subdivision one of section 4, sections, section 9 and other matters not complied with.
 Another thing of importance is that no alternate judges. or clerks have been selected, and it says that no deputy or an office holder shall be eligible to membership on the county central committee. In this election the committee that appointed ] the judges violated the new primary law in two ways.
 "For the making valid of the elec- ton and to avoid the possibility of contests. the election should be fin ished as begun--under the same law and not half and half.
