238 HUNTING DUG.^. 



Another eas}' waj to make a good place foi* 

 a dog is cut a hole in the side of a. building that 

 has a good roof, and put a box large enough so 

 that it will give your dog plenty of room right 

 tight up against the inside of the building where 

 you cut the holes thru. Knock one side of your 

 box out and put it to the hole on inside of build- 

 ing. Put your burlap on the outside at the hole 

 as before described, and you have a fine place 

 for your dog. Make the hole just large enough 

 so he can get thru it easily, and cut it high 

 enough so that when he lays down in the box, 

 the bottom of the hole will be above the dog. 

 Give your dog good, clean bedding at least once 

 a week. Twice a week is not too often. Use 

 some disinfectant about two or three times a 

 month inside of dog house. The best cure for 

 mange that I have ever used, or for sores to 

 heal them] is black gun powder, powdered sul- 

 phur and lard, mixed and well rubbed in. It 

 is a sure cure for mange. It will soon kill the 

 germs, if properly applied. 



I notice where a brother, in telling how to 

 break a young dog to tree 'Coon said, to let the 

 'coon chew the dog for a while, help the 'coon, 

 let him eat the dog for about 20 minutes and 

 the dog would go to hunting them to get revenge, 

 or something to that effect. Now it is my 

 opinion that the dog would not want any more
