Packard in response to queries from many county auditors. ands.ot.men.in foreign-service.at. the time of the last general election, only a few hundred attempted to vote, and in such counties as Burleigh, where Townley hosses were in control, a ma- jority of these ballote were ruthless: ly thrown out, In Burleigh county this action was taken at the behest of Ed. S. Allen, who was a candidate for state’s attorney, and who feared the soldier vote would defeat him, Mr. Packard’s- Gpinion. Hon. 'T. H. H. Thoresen, State's Attorney, Dunn Co., Dunn Center, N. Dak. Dear Sir: Relative to your inquiry as to whether or not any qualified elector of this state who has complied with the laws in regard to registration, is entitled to vote on absent voters’ bal- lot at the approaching refeerndum election on June 26th, I beg leave to advise you that this office has repeat- edly ruled that the absent voters’ law only applies to general elections. This law was enacted in 1918, and Section 992 of the C. L, of 1913 provides that: “Any qualified elector of this state having complied with the laws in regard to registration, who is absent from the county of which he is an elector on the day of holding ‘a general or primary election, may vote at such elec- tion, as hereinafter .provided.” There was enacted. at, the speciai session of the legislature in 1918, a “Blections in Mili- UP FOR THE FAIR HOPPERS SHOULD BE NET AT EDGE OF THE FIBLDS Federal Specialist Advises| Watching Baby Insects and Feeding Them Young PEST CAN BE CONTROLLED Farmers in Burleigh county and in all the western part of this state are naturally taking much interest in the fight that is being conducted agains the swarms of grasshoppers that have appeared in the fields this summer. The effort to combat the pests is rap- idly taking systematic shape and the campaign will without doudt be en- ittely successful if persisted in to the end. C. N. AinsHe of the U.

But there is no use in spreading the poison in fields where only a few! scattering hoppers are to be found, nor in worrying over the appearance of a limited number such as is always to be found in every field. Where the numbers are noticeable there should be no delay in the application of the polson for it is believed that even the very young hoppers will eat the pois- oned bran. Must Be Thoroughly Mixed. Whoever mixes the “dope” should keep in mind that the important part of the whole process is in the thor- form it in that case. Full grown hens will rarely eat enough of it to injure them.

This can hardly be overdone, | HOS. the state in the service of their coun- try can vote at the special referen- dum election June 26. Mr. Packard finds that under the Townley bill of 1913 the soldiers are left only the privilege of voting at regular elec- tions. George Reishus, who had been a good leaguer in the regular session of 1917, came down to the specia: session with a simple but effective bill already drawn extending to the} thousands of men then in military service abroad a right to participate] 't in the government of their state. The bill was frowned on by leaguers. Pub- lic opinion, however, demanded it. The state who from the coun- ty in which he an elector at any géneral election other than a primary and engaged in the mili- tary or naval service of the Unit- ed States, may vote at such elec- tion as hereinafter provided.” It will be observed that the 1918 statute restricted and narrowed the provisions of the 1913 act by making i pplicable. only to general elec-} tions. A general Section 946 of the C. L. of 1913. election is defined in This It is hard to tell which is the prouder of the two—the big horse in his go-to-meeting clothes, or the owner who is holding him. Horses though not registered, but not a: as good as this one are hard to find. There'll be quite a number at the Inter-State Fair, Fargo, N. D., July 21 to 26. tion that may be of help later. At present there are only a few fields that are seriously infested in that part of the county, but the hop. pers are very young, some not even hatched yet, and the condition may change for the worse as the hoppers multiply and increase in size. At the present stage Mr. Ainslie recommends the use of the poisoned bran along the edges of the fields where the small hoppers aro moving in from the native grass, about straw stacks and rock piles. Wherever the eggs were placed last fall the peris are naturally abundant just now and a and a failure to do this is probably the cause of any want of success 11! the use of the mixture. A tight wa- gon box, cement floor or large water tank make good places to do the pre- paring, preferably out of the wind. If the poison is prepared a day or two before using, so much the better, | if time can be had, to give the bran a chance to absorb as much moisture as possible. It may be that keeping the stuff a week with more or less consequent fermentation, improves its attractiveness for the hoppers, since it is the odor that draws them to it. The arsenic will retain its poisonous HOSKINS, STORM BOUND FOR TWO WEEKS, HOME After being stranded for more than two weeks at Lake Sally by weather which made the roads impassable,, R. v.

The Townleyites knew at that time that the primary election would be close, and they feared the soldier vote.
