There is a very good friend of nilnfl,

He cannot speak a word of French,

DOGS AS ARTILLERY HORSES
Proposition Under Consideration in
France Seems to Have Much to
Recommend It.
Thu Frencli First army corps Is said
ti) be considerin.i? the adoption of dogs
for hauling artillery. The dogs In
question are the big nemish animals,
which are largely utilized in the north
of France for dragging milk carts and
other vehicles
From the economic standpoint there
l.s a good deal to be said in favor of
the replacement of the horse by tho
dog so far as light artillery is con
cerned. A pood Flemish dog can b«
bought for 100 francs, and the cost of
feeding It does not e.xceed fifty
centimes a day. The lowest price
of an artillery horse Is 100 francs, and
the daily cost of its upkeep amounts
to two francs. In other words, the
first cost of the horse is at least four
times as gr<*af. and It cosf.s four time.*i
as much to feed Moreover, for 100
fnmcs it Is possible to buy a dog In
