I Love of a Dog Ana
The Lower Animals
^ -t
Kditor of The Star.
The 'first bereavement i had when
a small hoy was for the deafh of a
speckled hound dog, ‘Rock”, that died
suddenly, my father had two hound
dogs, ‘Hock and Crockett”, that he said
could catch any deer that stayed on
the ground. Deer when chased would
take to deep water rivet-; and mill
ponds. Withrow had a wide mill pond
where the deer arottifd Cherry moun
tain could take refuge. Billy (’. I,attl
more said Rock had more sense than
any dog ho ever knew. When deer
were chased they had certain crossing
places in their range. The hunters
culled these deer stands and would or
cupy thoni for « shot at the deer as
they passed. Hock learned to know
these stund? and would take'near cuts
and get there before the deer and be
ready for a sight, race. I was brought
up to love dogs and hunting. When lb
years old I had to give up hunting with
dogs and was pul to hunting with a
gun, the numerous. Yankees and for
eign hirelings that invaded our hums.
After we’had had enough of that kind
of sport we turned to fox bunting
again, but 1 soon found it too hard on
my physical and financial resources,
and T dropped dogs and hunting aim
turned my energies in trying to pro
vide for wife and children. 1 posed as
a reformed fox hunter, saying, “It is
not meant to take childrens’ bread and
cast it to dogs.” Then 1 was disgusted
with hunting birds with dogs, exterm
inating birds and that let insects de
stroy crops, so for 50 years 1 hud as
little as possible to do with dogs—all
dogs seemed a useless, dangerous nui
sance; scavengers—carriers of flea*
and all the disease germs, afloat. But
my children carrying the blood of sav- j
age ancestors imposed a few dogs on I
me that 1 reluctantly -submitted "to. i
The last year has found us with an*
Airdale pup the smartest, most Intel- j
ligent dog I have ever associated with. |
It made me love it in spite of myself.
I have stayed close home all winter j
and it jhas been my closest and most j
faithful companion. It was always
wanting to help do something, chase
chickens, drive cattle and guard the
yard at night. It let all comers pass
in daylight, but when night came it
went on duty to protect the yard and
barn lot. Then he took upon himself
the protection of Miss Lottie at her
millinery store on the public road, and
protesting the passage of cars, got
run over and went under the house and
died—as true patriots have always
died in the performance of duty. It
was so sudden and unexpected, I had
not realized how much it was to me
until it had passed so quickly, leaving
me to grieve for it. It should have
been left at home tied or kept in a
kennel. Dogs should not run at large
except under care of a master and
turned loose only when wanted. Our
dog was only nine months old and had
not learned to care for itself. I alone
was responsible for its better care
“who knows the true relations of man
to the lower animals.” The Bible says,
“The righteous man considerclh the
life of his beast.” And Solomon says;
“Who knoweth that the soul of man
goeth lip and the soul of the beast go.
eth down?” But there is not a favor
able word in the Bible for the dog.
Yet, ‘‘he prnyeth best that loveth best
- All things both great and small;; for
the good God that maketh us, Ho
maketh and loveth all.” Not a sparrow
lalls to tin -round without his notice.
Who sees wwh equal eye as God of all,
A hero perish or a sparrow fall.”
Our Christian religion tenches us to
love and work with him. All intelli
gence yields to kindness and resents
oppression. If a man has more sense
than a horse, he will ho able to man
age and treat it kindly—otherwise the.
horse will resent his barbarity.
If there be retribution in a future
life, how \vc may suffer for the way
we treat dumb animals over which wc
have dominion. If a man acts hoggish
and doggish in this life, the best lie
can hope for is to he a hog or a dog
in the next. The character he makes
here will follow him. Under the Jew
ish Sabbath, as a day of rest, horses
and oxen were included . Our preach
ers have driven horses .‘50 miles on
Sunday, preached a great sermon “on
keeping the Sabbath” and then eat a
big, hot dinner that tired women had
worked all day preparing. John the
Baptist ate grasshoppers and wild
honey; and Jesus Christ ate raw
wheat when he was hungry on a Sab
bath day. Now gome preachers will
gladly accept money from masked
dragons and wizards and praise the
“noble order” that gives it. How times
do change! The devil could now afford
a long vacation everything moves sc,
smoothly in his kingdom.

Tomato Blight
Cause of Loss
Good Results Have Been
Obtained by Setting Out
Hardened Plants.
* Prepared iy the I’nftPil Staten Department
of Agriculture.)
Tomato growers In'the Middle At
lantic and Middle Western stales may
greatly reduce their losses froth leaf
spot, or blight, hy following the prae
tiees reeonimeiidetl in Dcpurlment liul
letin 1 L\H5i, The Control' of Tomato
Leaf-Spot, hy Fred J. I'rilelinrd and
W. S. Forte, recently issued by the
I'tilted States Department nj Agricttl
ture. The disease, which, in the
Lulled States, causes the commercial
growers an estimated animal loss of
250.000 tons of tomatoes, is widely dis
tributed east of the Ilocky mountains.
Because s|iore formation of this
fungus takes place only at tempera
tures he; ween 50 and SO.o decrees i<\,
and because the disease develops best
only within a tern item (lire range of
T.'l to Ts decrees F„ it is relatively
unimportant in the northern states and
in lilt' far South. Because It thrives
best in a moist atmosphere, it is more
abundant in Maryland. Virginia, and
tlie adjoining const states than in the
inland parts of tlie same temperature
belt.
Mixtures Too Expensive.
. In the past bordemtx or other copper
Spray mixtures have given the best
control of leaf-spot, but profits have
not always been increased enough to
justify file expense. 'Die bulletin sug
gests that a more effective and eco
nomical method of control lie- in the
use of modified field practice*. Hood'
results have been obtained by setting
out large, sleeky, well-lmrdened plants
' arl.v In the spring. Since Hie fulrgus
does not produce spores at low tem
peratures the disease will not begin
to do damage in,this l-egion before the
latter half of June and for that rea
son these early plants escape more
leaf spot than tlie small ones that are
commonly set late. Plants of the de
sirable kind at least six weeks old can
l>c produced cheaply outdoors in the
South and shipped north at tlie right
time for planting. In 102» more than
110,000,(MX) southern-grown tomato
plants were shipped Into Indiana and
a considerable number into the East
ern states. Some of the larger north
ern companies manufacturing tomato
products are growing their own'plants
in the South, in order to obtain
healthy plants of suitable size and
age. The indiscriminate purchase of
southern stock of unknown history
cannot lie recommended, because of
the attendant danger of introducing
wilt and root-knot. There is need "of
a system of plant certification to pro
tect pie careful southern grower and
the northern purchaser: against this
tlanger.
Fungus Prevented.
The fungus < an lie largely prevented
from over-wintering.hy plowing under
the old tomato vines in the fall. The
vines must l>e thoroughly covered to
kill all tlie fungus on them and this
can lie accomplished by first cutting
them with a disk and by using a weed
lio'ok on the plow or a weed hook and
jointer. The fungus also grows and
produce* spores on dead weeds,
grasses, and remains of various crops,
especially cornstalks. By keeping
these dead materials covered with soil
and by destroying such plants as ttie
hors: nettle, groundclicrry, jimsonweed
arid nightshade and by burning dead
weeds and grasses along tin* fence
rows and other waste places, the dis
ease can lie well controlled.

paraded through corridors of the

need not go to class without their

The necktie strike followed the
