Sportsmen of North Dakota are
undertaking the task of extermin-
ating the crows, as it is said that
thep destroy the nests Of prairie
chickens: This being the case, it
may be a good stunt for some Of
the local nimrods to get busy and
do away with some Of the cawers in
this vicinity. Nearly every morn
ing and evening a flock may be
seen in the Missouri river bottom
below the townsite, that will prob
ably number in the thousands.

LONDON PAPERS FEARFUL
OF GREATER AIR RAIDS
Belief Expressed That Attacks May
Reach Magnitude of an
Invasion.

LONDON. May 28.-The newspapers
in their editorials today deal with Fri
days air raid. They say that not only
did 1T result in the greatest number Of
casualties of any raid yet made but
they consider it a proboble forerun-
ner of many similar raids which NAV
be carried out by a far greater number
of airplanes, and, in the course of time
be multiplied to the extent Of amount
ing to an invasion.
The great speed and height at which
a1rplanes operate, as well as their yir-
tual immunity from damage by anti
aircraft artillery, are regarded as
among the reasons why they have re-
placed the vulnerable Zeppelins and are
likely to become more serious mem
ace.
The perpetually recurring contro-
versy concerning the reprisals has been
reawakened by the raid, the pro-reprisaI-
lists demanding attacks on German towns.
while the anti-reprisalists strongly on.
pose this not only on the ground Of hiI-
manity and decency, but because thew
hold that 1t Is proved that such raids on
Freiburg and Karlsruhe did not have
the least deterrent effect There is a note
worthy absence of severe criticism of the
invaders not being attacked sooner and
| more strongly. 1t is generally recognized
that the fighting front has the first call
on alrmen, where they are indispensable
and never too numerous
One commentator writes: 'sThe entry
| OF America into the war has fortunatels
| placed at the service of the allies a new
| and powerful air force 1t is possible fhe
| speedy development Of this force NAV
enable the air defenses of this counfry
to be increased very greatly"

SAYS fewer DELIVERIES
WOULD Benefit BUYERS
Mark Dobrin Thinks, However,
There Are Times When It Is Nee
.essary to Send Home Packages.

IF buyers would cooperate with
stores in carrying home packages when
they conveniently can do SO they would
enable stores to cut down their de-
liyeries from three or four to two a
day, and effect saving which would
rebound to the benefit of the customer"
This Is the view of Mark Dobrin of
NJ. Goldenberg's department store rela-
bundle" campaign of The Star.
There is no reason for practicing
unusual economies nor for refraining
from buying any of the things normal
" needed in the household" said Mr..
Dobrin. But there always is the need
to eliminate unnecessary expenses and
overhead costs in a store, an elimina-
tion which, of course, means an ulti-
mate saving for the consumer.
Now Goldenberg's has no thought Of
mate service. There are times when
1t may be necessary to send home even
small packages. For example, there is
the case of the woman who makes a
purchase on her way down town which
fstneeded in the home before she will
return.
For this reason I would not favor
any hard-and-fast rule regarding the
q certain purchase price. or over a
certain size or weight. But I do think
that the number Of deliveries made per
DAY could be cut down to two. instead
oittnfee OF IOur. without inconvenience
TO. buyers. Such a curtailment of the
number of deliveries would mean a
decided saving. and it could be accom-
plfshed with the corporation of Gus
toners who were willing to carry home
purchases when they could conveniently
do so."
Mr.. Dobrin points to the special de-
livery practice. by which packages are
sent out ahead Of regular deliveries, as
Q source of heavy tax on the delivery
system. Two-thirds Of the ready-to-
wear articles. and two-thirds of the
millinery deliveries. are sent in this
manner, by request of the purchasers,
Mr.. Dobrin stated. He believes a saw
ing could be effected If buyers would
ask for this service only when it is
absolutely necessary.

HOW TO RUN YOUR FURNACE
Saving of Coal and Better Service Will
Be Had If These Instructions
Are Followed.

There's a lesson for every household
er in the pamphlet on how to save coal,
just given out here by the anthracite
bureau of information. Listen:
Don't put in too much coal or too
little.
Don't crowd it above the top of the
friedrich lining in range, cylinder stove
or hot-air furnace.
FIJI the fuel space twice a day in
winter weather, heaping the coal
slightly in the center.
Don't add small quantities of coal
several times a day, with attendant
shakings. Shake the CRATE only twice
a day before fresh coal is put in and
stop when a bright light shows under
meath.
Don't leave the feed door open; it
cools the heating surfaces. To check
draft, open the check damper in the
stovepipe and shut the ashpit door.
See that the coal is properly con-
sumed and not shaken through the
crate to pass out with the ashes.
Keep the ashpit empty.
Don't use the wrong size of coal !;
it's unecunomical.
If right size and quality of coal are
used no ash sitter is required.
