"I'll tell you a great secret about feeding puppies and grown dogs, too. In 1 learned It forty years ago when I ll0 owned my first litter of pups. I rtl "They were flnlcky enters.

"It's a ftinny thing that foxes and , olves and coyotes can eat chickens j r turkeys or ducks, bones and all. and t ot be harmed, while It's death to a o?. I^tblnk It's propahly because j ild animals eat the bones raw. and ags eat them after the fowl has been wked. The cookfcg makes the bone* rijUe and dangerous. "Wasn't It you, Colonel Prouse. who sked me how to cure your pup of illlng chickens? The best way 1 now of Is to tie around his neck the I ext chicken he kills and leave It hangig tbere for three or four days. "In hot weather like this the pup ' III have oil he wants of the chicken's >mpany by that time, and the chances re that he's going to leave chickens one in the future. "Speaking of feeding?dogs are like* i humans In another way. More of lem die from overeating than from idereatlng. A dog over a y?-ur old ?eds only one meal a day.

(For my own part, I won't take ' e horrible stuff, but I've made many dog and many a child take it, and s ey usually get well). t "Remember something else, too: If r ur dog doesn't Improve right sway . ter his dose of castor oil. send for j e nearest flrst-rnte veterinary you n find; It's bad economy to save a 1 veterinary fee by giving 'home treat- ^ nt' to a $300 dog that's sick. j "A dessertspoonful of codllver oil a y Is grand tonic and health builder, o. for any dog.

"Mr. Greer, you asked me what kind bedding to put In your dog'a kennel summer. None at all. Leave the >ards bare. In winter the best bedng I? cedar Bhavlngs.
