Conditions of crops in Minnesota,

WHY NOT TRY 1T HERE?

No one has yet put forth an ade-
quate or valid reason why drivers of
automobiles should not undergo an
examination as to the fitness and, if
they could qualify, be given revoc-
able license which would permit them
to operate a motor car on the public
highway provided they used judg
ment, discretion and drove sanely.
Despite this there are only few
states where such precautions are
taken. In Evanston, H., a plan has
been hit upon that will at least give
a check to reckless drivers and per-
sistent violators of traffic regula-
tions. All such, on being apprehend-
ed will be required to endure a psy-
chopathic examination as to their
mentality.
The idea OF taking such public nui-
sances to a laboratory and testing
their intelligence is excellent. 1t is
more than likely that many of the
drivers responsible for the wanton
slaughter of men, women and chill
dren on the streets and highways
would be found to be moronic.
Of course, not all selfish and in
considerate drivers are morons. Some
are "road hogs" whose offenses
against the rights of others are de-
liberate. They should be deprived of
the right to drive after due warn
ing. Anyway, testing the mentality
of persistent violators, and that fact
made public, sounds like a pretty
good remedy for the evil.

NO DODGING GOES

Talk of what this and that candi-
date thinks of prohibition fills the
newspapers. That's OK, but pro-
hibition is not the only issue by a
long shot. What do the candidates
think about injunctions, unemploy-
ment and other mighty important
issues? Labor wants to know and in
tends to see that candidates express
themselves plainly on all big issues
before election day. Candidates
might just as well tell where they
stand, for if they attempt to dodge
they are in for a rocky time.

that our diet is changing and that in

What we discover is that the
farmer, too, must bend his ways to
meet the demands of new machinery
and new methods.
AS whole, we may eat trifle less
per capita. but the main change is in
the kind OF food we eat.
Transportation and development of
new fruits and vegetables are the two
factors that have made for change in
what we eat.
But added to these factors some
thing else enters. With machinery
doing more and more work, human
beings need less energy PRODUCING
foods, and so we turn from carbo-
hydrates to proteins. 1t is estimated
that the per capita consumption of
cereals has dropped about 100 pounds

YOU MUST REGISTER

Did you register Thursday? Re-
member, whether you registered last
year or the year before, unless you
register again this year you can't
vote at the election in November. Nor
can you vote in any future elections
until you first register. At the last
session of the state legislature new
election code was passed making pro-
visions for permanent registration,
which means that once an elector is
registered it will not be necessary for
him to ever register again unless he
moves or fails to vote for a period
of two years.
However, the new code calls for
the registration this year of every
elector desiring to vote at the com
ing November election or future
elections. The law provides but three
days for general registration, Thurs
day of this week and Friday anc
Saturday of next week. Under the
new system of registration it takes
little longer to get on the books
than under the old, and with but
three days to register all voters it is
going to take some tall hustling or

all on the books, even with a steady
