DONALD FRANZ A CROW HUNTER
He Collected Bounty on Fourteen
Heads This Morning.

Donald Franz. a small farmer boy,
got in early this morning with a
string of fourteen crow heads, which
he presented to the county clerk. He
received a voucher for 20 cents, or
five cents per head
The crow season opened Saturday
and the first customer was small boy
who had robbed a crows nest. He
cashed two eggs at one cent each. and
three freshly Matched birds at five
cents each. When told that he should
have incubated the two eggs, which
were on the point of Matching. and
thereby increased his revenues by
eight cents, he saw the logic of the
suggestion, and said he would not
bring any more eggs.
