Circus to Travel by
Motor Trucks Hereafter

The circus, which has long been
the inspiration of youth to feats of
and daring, this year will
turn its efforts to obtaining recruits
for Uncle Sans army and navy.
With the thought of bending every
effort toward some form of practical
patriotism, Frank P. Spellman, presi-
dent of the United States Circus Cor
poration. owners of the new motor
lied circus, has offered to aid the
government to recruit ble-bodied
mon for the army and navy from the
vast crowds that gather at the per-
formances. He has proposed to the
War Department that a recruiting
office be opened at the show grounds.
1t was the plan OF President Spell
man in building up his circus to put
on the road something that would
be of practical value in the way of
patriotic service, as well as some
thing that would be attractive.
With this end in view, elaborate
floats, representing the allied coun-
tries no wat mar with Germany, have
been made. These, with the magni-
ficent float, "Old Glory" passing
through the streets on motor trucks
are expected to arouse a patriotic
fervor and inspire many a young
man to offer his services to his coun-
try.

Retail Tobacconists
Not Popular in London

London, June 2.-The most unpopu-
lar persons in England at the present
day are the retail tobacco dealers.
They are accused of the most brazen
stroke of war profiting that has yet
been achieved. The budget introduced
last week raised the tax on tobacco
by forty flour cents pound. There
upon almost all of the dealers an
nounced a raise in prices averaging
on all forms of tobacco about sixty
four cents pound. The dealers take
advantage of an extra tax to charge
the consumer the tax and also an eX-
ira profit of twenty cents a pound.
The consumers are indignant, but as
the dealers generally hang together.
the consumers have no remedy eX-
cept to stop using tobacco. There Is
an additional grievance in that
large proportion of the tobacco used
in England is consumed by the SOL
diers in training, on leave, or in hos
pitals, and purchased by home people
to send to their soldiers at the front.
The profits resulting from this in
creased tax really work out at more

When Dean Babcock's attention

that it must rest upon some misun-
Outstanding because 1t had been
promised that as much hard GOAL as

Dean E. j. Babcock, who has been
giving particular attention to the coal
problem since early this year, at the
request of The Herald, has prepared
statement setting forth the situa-
ton as it exists now.
North Dakota, in common with
other states. is feeling very decidedly
the effect Of the fuel shortage. The
large increase in the consumption Of
fuel, especially in industrial uses, the
ment; the difficulties in transportation
and distribution, and those in pro-
duction, have all tended to bring
about q serious fuel shortage On the
country.
Because of the early advent Of
cold weather and the consequent in
in fuel consumption in the
northwest, the most pressing needs
have developed in this section of the
country. In North Dakota the short
age is felt most in the eastern part
of the state which. under normal con-
ditions. depends very largely upon
eastern coal, supplied through west
ern lake terminals. For some time
it has been difficult to deliver the coal
in sufficient quantities at these docks
meet the rapidly increased demand
in the northwest.
Distribution of Anthracite.
'In this portion Of the state the
shortage of anthracite is especially felt
since most of the fuel used for do
heating purposes is hard coal.
Under present conditions 1t seem inn
possible to get in and distribute the
