North Dakota Enters the Bone
Dry Column in Reality Week
From Next Sunday
STORES ALREADY LAID
IN MAY BE TAKEN UP
Authorities Have Indicated 1nten.
tion of Seizing Unreasonable
Amounts

With only few days remaining in
which intoxicating liquors may be I'M
ported into North Dakota. every in
coming train from "below' is loaded
down with every known variety of
drinkable and undrinkable. The North
Dakotan who must nave his wee drop
is preparing for the long drOuth ush-
cred in July 1 through the joint oper-
ations of North Dakota's new bone dry
law and the Webb-Kenyon federal sta
tute. Twin city liquor houses, which
have long enjoyed heavy mail order
business in North Dakota, for the last
three months have urged patrons to
stock up. "No one can prevent your
laying in as much liquor as you can
pay for" they advise their customers.
States attorneys hold otherwise.
Large stocks Of liquor already have
been confiscated on the grounds that
they are too large to warrant the as
sumption that they are intended for
personal use, and a more general raid
on wine cellars no doubt will come
after July /.
Due to FIuke.
North Dakota's entrance into the
bone dry column July 1 comes through
a fluke. Representative Bowman OF
Kuhn, league leader in the Fifteenth
assembly, introduced bill requiring
railroads to procure receipt from
consignees of liquor shipments and de-
manding a certificate from the recip'
lent that the intoxicants were intend
ed for his personal use. The idea OF
the bill was that it would curb the
operations of blindpiggers and boot
leggers who have shipped in large
quantities in their own names and in
the names Of others, with or without
the consent of the owners. When the
temperance committee in the senate
received the measure it decided to go
further by determining the question OF
just what amount of liquor might be
considered reasonable for personal
consumption. -Four quarts OF whiskey,
eight gallons Of wine and 70 quarts of
beer were fixed as fair limit for
individual monthly consumption, and
the committee also amended the bill
to provide that registered pharmacists
under affidavit that the liquor was to
be sold for medicinal purposes and
not illegally might import intoxicants.
Both amendments passed, and the bill

The Base of the American Flotilla
in British Waters, June 2O.-Two Am
erican destrOyers have returned here
with so survivors of two torpedoed
British ships. The ships were sunk
at the farthest point westward in the
Atlantic that the U-boats have ap-
peared since the ruthless submarine
campaign began. The destroyers went
to the aid of the British boats in an
swer to their S. o. S. CALL
When the American warships ar
rived on the scene, they found the
ships were gone and for many hours
they groped about in the dark in
search Of them. Thirty.one of the
first boat were later found and 40 of
the second boat were picked up later.
Admiral Sims and other naval Off
GERS met the destroyers on their re-
turn and complimented the command
ers on their work
Although there are no war time re-
strictions on the sale of liquor III the
port here, the saloons are not the
rendezvous of either the Americans
or the Britishers. One Of the diver
sions of the Americans is initiating
their colleagues into the mysteries OF
the American national game of base
ball.

FIRST TWO DAYS
NET 35 MILLION

Washington, June 20. - Incomplete
reports to American Red Gross head
iquarters here last night showed more
than $35,0OO,OOO subscribed during the
first two days of he>weeks campaign
to raise $1C0,0OO,OOO for war relief.
i Several great individual donations
helped to swell the total today, but
the Red Cross war council expects
later reports to include great multi
tude of smaller donations by people
of moderate means, whose subscrip-
tions went far toward the eleventh
hour over subscription of the Liberty
Loan.
Pledge Ten Million.
Tonight's total did not include the
contributions of many small city or
town communities, particularly in the
west, where it is said local campaign
committees plan to withhold their to-
tails until late in the week, in the
hope of avoiding a too optimistic
spirit.
A single pledge of $4,000, 900 has
been given the war council tentatively
for use in fighting tuberculosis in
France. The name of the contributor
was not made public.
A feature of yesterdays reports was
the generous subscriptions from Gin
cinnati. Milwaukee, Buffalo and other
cities having large German popula-
tions.

Eggs are 60 cents a dozen in many
towns and housewives are haunted
by the prediction that dollar-a-dozen
eggs will be fashionable before spring.
good money for eggs at such rates
must demand that she get good eggs.
She owes this to herself and. to hei
neighbot. But how is she to test eggs
without breaking the shells? -
By X-raying the eggs in her own
kitchen. She can make her own ma
chine from materials which she has
at hand, a shoe box, or any other
box of the same shape and size, and
a small electric bulb or candle.
In one end of the box, cut a hole,
the shape of an egg, only slightly
, smaller. so the eggs to be tested will
fit tightly.
Insert the lighted bulb or candle
in the box and fasten the cover on
closely. F%7t s7}~F rs =.
