JEFFERSON COUNTY NOW LISTS 37,496
 QUALIFIED VOTERS
Exactly 7,6O4 Women Have Registered Here Since Ten nessee Legislation on Suffrage Became Ma
 tionaIIy Official

During the days that the reg istration books were open tt the women of Jefferson exact ly 7,604 registered, according to the records in the office O. M. E. Morris, election commis sioner.
 On Friday, the last day on which the women could register under the existing laws, 3,723 women quail flied to have their names placed on the voting list of the county.
 Since the publication of the sup pIementary list, prior to the pri- mary election in May, which con- tained 2S,3S1 names, 1,511 men have registered. These men, in the ma ority of instances, are returned soldiers who had not previously registered since their return from the late world war, Mir. Morris de- cIared. Under the constitutional amendment, according to his con- struction of it, men in service dur ing the world war were exempt from poll tax from 1901. However, he stated that Attorney General J. c. Smith of Alabama reversed his decision. In his opinion, the men owed poll tax up until the time they entered the service. The su- preme court, however, upheld the opinion of MT. Morris. he declared, nnd many of the returned soldiers waited until this question was set- tied by the supreme court before qualifying.
 Together with the women and men registering since May the vOt- ing list of Jefferson county now contains 37,f96 names.

 BlSBEE, Ariz., Oct. 16-Notices were posted today by the Copper Queen branch of the Phelps Dodge corporation, carrying on extensive mining operations in this district, to the effect that a number of men would be laid off from the Saera- nento hill property on Nov. 1.

HOW MOTOR TRUCKS CONSERVE FOOD
AND ACREAGE
The possibilities of the motor manufacturing in
dustry outside of passenger cars are enormous
that it is difficult to estimate from statistics
available. While the manufacture of passenger cass
is even yet in it's infancy in this country,
trucks tractors just beginning to attract at
tention and it is not too much say that their gen.
eral is only question of very short time since
the number increases almost rapidly the man.
ufacturing facilities will permit.
Their use means the displacement Of horse power
and the consequent diversion of the acreage required
to feed the horses the of food production for
human beings.
1t is estimated that the number of motor trucks
in in the United States is close to 100000.
This number according to statistics dspares about
1000 900 horses which would conserve according TO
reliable estimate about 10 900 acres of land and this
would feed 100000 people Thus it is readily
that the saving by the OF trucks in the sup
Fly of food would be enormous but the conservation
would be the less important in food distribution.
Trucks are being rapidly substituted for railroad
in the short haul transportation of freight anil
this service alone will create demand difficult to
supply
1t does not require observan person in the face
of these facts to understand and appreciate the great
future that awaits the motor truck manufacturing
business.
