History maker The Smith Plow, which was on display at last fole in the state's agricultural development. The week's North Carolina State Fair, played a major plow was invented in Raeford. Fleas driving dog, owner nuts DEAR DOCTOR: Fleas are driving me and my dog nuts. What can I do besides bathing him and placing a flea collar around his neck ? ANSWER: Fleas are driving a lot of pet owners a little around the bend at this time of year. Late summer is usually the time veterinarians get lots of requests from pet owners to help eliminate the fleas and the skin problems they cause. The key to controlling fleas on your pet is to remember that you have to treat both the pet and the pet's environment. The fleas on the pet are laying eggs that fall off the dog or cat and then develop where they land into more adult fleas. When they fall off in your house, you will have fleas all winter unless the fleas are killed with foggers or carpet sprays. If they develop outside, they will be bothering your pet until frost stops their development for this year. Using an insecticide yard spray will help cut the flea population where You And Your Pet your outside dog lives. Pay par ticular attention to the dog house and where your dog frequently rests. Continue treating the dog with insecticide shampoos and use a flea collar if you wish. Your veterinarian can suggest stronger measures that are available from only veterinarians. One such medication is the flea tablet that is given twice weekly to kill the fleas as they bite your pet. DEAR DOCTOR: My dog had puppies about three weeks ago. The mother only feeds them three times a day and they seem to cry a lot in between feedings. How do I tell if they are getting enough milk? When should I normally begin feeding them and what food should I use? ANSWER: Make an appoint ment with your veterinarian and separate the mother from her pups for several hours before the visit. Locklear enlists in National Guard Ricky Locklear of Route 1, Shannon was enlisted recently as a Sergeant in the North Carolina Na tional Guard. Sgt. Locklear is a four year veteran of the Marine Corps, and was able to retain his rank that he earned in the marines when he enlisted in the National Guard. Sgt. Locklear will become a member of the indirect fire section within Headquarter 2/252 Armor Battalion in Raeford. This will allow buildup of milk in the mother's glands so we can tell how much milk she has. With large litters or poor milking mothers ex tra food may be needed as early as one or two weeks using a commer cial milk replacer. Cow's milk is not rich enough for puppies. When supplementing young pups, a nurs ing bottle can be used. At about three weeks of age most pups will show interest in solid food. Give them baby cereal mixed with lots of water so it is fairly liquid. Between three and four weeks baby cereal and water may be mixed with a dry puppy food. The baby cereal may be gradually phased out as the pups near six weeks leaving just the pup py food.
