 Always allow the 'coon to go far enough so that 

 your dog will not see him. When you take him 

 where the coon scent is, after the 'coon is dead 

 and your dog well blooded, go home with your 

 dog and 'coon. Chain your dog and put the 

 'coon near him for three or four hours before 

 skinning and while doing this, have your dog 

 near you. The next day, take your dog where 

 'coons are moving and he will soon have one for 

 you. Repeat the blooding every time and you 

 will soon have a No. 1 'coon dog.
