(Dallas News)
On Tuesday, November 4, the peo
pie of Texas will vote on six propos-
ed amendments of the State Consti-
tution and a proposal to hold a consti-
tutional convention. Each of these
proposals has been described in The
News heretofore. The proposals as
they have been certified by the Secre
tary of State to appear on the ballot
are set forth below. The election law
(Article 2937 pf the Revised Civil
Statutes) authotizes the Secretary of
State to prescribe the forms to be
used in elections, and all counties
should place proposals on the ballot
in the order certified by that offcial.
However, about forty counties did not
thus observe the form in the election
of May 24, with the result that there
was much confusion.
The propositions for Nov. 4, as cer-
tified by. the Secretary of State fol-
low:

TEST SHOWS BUTTER DOES
NOT SHRINK IN STORAGE
Austin, Texas, Oct. 14,-r-Under a test
by the state department of weights
and measures a carton of butter hold-
ing thirty packages which weighed fif-
teen ounces each was shipped from
San Antonio to Fort Worth in May.
This butter was kept in cold storage
at Fort Worth until September 24„
when it was re-weighed and found to
be of exactly the original weight.
The department holds this as evi-
dence that it should not accept the ex-
cuse of the grocer that butter shrinks
in weight after he reecived it.
The department is now considering
the standardization of butter packages
to sixteen ounce weight, and requiring
that the customer receive full weight
of butter.

175 CENSUS ENUMERATORS
NEEDED FOR THIS DISTRICT.
The Director of the Census, Hon.
Sam L. Rogers, announces that 80,000
enumerators will be needed to take
the next census. The work begins on
January 2 and will last about two
weeks in cities and a month or more
in rural districts. Rates of pay will
vary, depending upon the locality and
character of the district to be can-
vassed. The average pay per enum-
erator at the census of 1910 was about
$70. At this coming census it will
probably be not less than $100.
“Active, intelligent, and reliable
men and women, not less than 18
years of age, are needed for this task’’
said Director Rogers, “and in a sense,
this is a call for volunteers. The
importance of a complete and reliar
ble census, especially in these critical
times when more than ever before per-
haps we need complete data regard-
ing population, conditions, tendencies,
and resources, can hardly be overem-
phasized. The reorganization of the
social and economic structure and the
readjustment of international rela-
tions necessitated by the War must
be based on accurate knowledge if
we are to act wisely and deal justly
with all classes and all interests. It
is hoped, therefore, that public spirit-
ed, energetic people throughout the
country will volunteer to act as cen-
sus enumerators even though they
may not care for the positions so far
as the pay is concerned. I should be
sorry to think, and I do not believe,
that all our patriotism was used up
by the War and none left over for pub-
lic service in times of peace.”
Gladden Lovell, Supervisor of the
Census for the 12th District of Texas,
which includes the counties of Erath,
Somerville, Hood, Johnson, Tarrant,
Parker, states that he will need about
175 enumerators for this district. Ap-
plications or requests for application
forms should be sent to him on or be-
fore October 15. His address is Wea-
therford, Texas. As a test of their
fitness for fhe work applicants will be
required to fill out a sample sched-
ule and will be duly notified of the
time and place for this test. So far
as practicable the place selected will
be one which is easily acecssible.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There Is only one way to cure ratarr
bal deafness, and that is by a eonsti
tutlona) remedy. Catarrhal Deafness
is caused by an Inflamed condition of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed,
you have a rumbling sound or imper-
fect hearing, and when it Is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Un
less the inflamation can be reduced,
and this tube restored to Its normal
condition, bearing will be destroyed
forever. Many eases of deafness are
caused by catarrh, which Is an In
flamed condition' of the mucous sur
faces. Hall’s Catarrh Cure acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of
the system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Catarrhal Deafne»e
that cannot be cured by Hall's Ca-
arrh Cure. Circulars free.
