Rules And Managers Of Election Given At a meeting of the county Dem ocratic Executive Committee on Saturday, August 2nd, it was un- amiously decided that a strict en forcement of the rules of the party will be required at the primary election to be held on August 26th. The managers of election are urged to see that a free and im partial right to vote without in terference be granted to every qualified voter. In those precincts in which the Australian ballot will be used, the rules require that the manager shall be responsible for all ballots furnished, and when a voter presents himself he should be given a ballot? and the voter shall immediately retire alone to one of the booths, and without un due delay prepare his ballot by scratching out the name of the candidates for whom he does not care to vote. No voter shall re main in the booth longer than five minutes. After preparing his ballot the voter shall present himself to the manager. His ballot must be folded in such a way that the number can be seen, and the cou pon can be readily detached by the manager without in any way revealing the printed portion of the ballot. Und^r no condition or circumstances has anyone a right to know for whom a voter is cast ing a ballot. The secrecy of the ballot must be preserved. If a voter shall mar or deface a ballot he may obtain one addition al ballot upon returning to the manager in charge of the ballots the Executive Committee: (4) The number of official ballots actually voted. Those desiring to vote by mail shall make application in writing for a ballot to the Committee on Enrollment or Club Secretary of his precinct, not less than five days or more than sixty days prior to the primary in which he desires to vote.

In the event that there is any interference with the right of the voter to cast his ballot or any ob struction of the voting, it shall be the duty of the managers to sus pend the election until order is restored, or as may be provided by the rules of the party. Upon the close of the election, managers shall account to the Eh> ecutive Committee for all ballots delivered to them and make the following returns: (1). The num ber of official ballots furnished to each polling place: (2) The num ber of official ballots spoiled and; ■ returned by voters: (3) The num- tber of Official ballots returned to piemented by fall plowing, will control barley scab. The scab para site lives over winter on old corn stalks and other crop residues left on the surface of the ground or on- ! y partly turned under. In 1928 scab infection averaged 17 per cent ii 52 barley fields in northern Ill inois and Southern Wisconsin where barley w’as sowm in disked or poorly plowed cornland with stalks eft on the surface of the ground, in contrast, the infection in 102 fields in this area where com was removed and the land well plowed was less than 2 per cent, with lit- Jc damage to the feeding value of the barley. Fields of barley show ing scab infection should be al lowed to become fully ripe and dry Clam chowder is good any month of the year, but especially welcome in the months oysters “R” not in season. Clams are a good source of vitamins A, D and E and like all seafood contribute iodine. To make clam chowder use: 1 quart shucked clams, 2 small potatoes, 1 medium sized onion, cut in small .pieces, 2 slices bacon cut in small pieces or an equal quantity of salt pork, 1-2 teaspoon salt, few* drops tabasco, 1 pint milk, 2 tablespoons flour. Re move the clams from the liquor and strain it through cheesecloth or a very fine wire strainer. Crisp the bacon and remove it from the fat and break into small pieces. If salt pork is used cut into dice be fore frying. Cook the onion in the meat fat until yellow r , then add flour. Pour most of the clam liquor slowly into the pan and cook until thickened. Cook the clams below the boiling point in the remainder of the liquor for tw r o or three min utes, then grind through the fine knife of the meat ginder, saving any juice. Add the milk to the thickened clam liquor, the salt, the bacon or salt pork, the Notice For Bids For Transportation Of Pupil s Sealed bids will be received un til 11 a. m., August 26, 1930, for the transportation of pupils from the Mt.
