filled out his blank in the following words: 
Classses 6 and 6.—Litter of puppies. 
Finally, there was no attempt to evade Mr, Grege’s protest. 
Tt was'an attempt on his part to deprive Mr. Stevenson of the 
right to compete through a narrow-aninded technical objec- 
_, tion. The managers gave him and his protest all the atten- 
+) - tion deservedzi: | 
His imsinuations as to the fixing of the matter are beneath 
contempt. The judge had nothing whatever to do with the 
correction of the error, nor was he consulted in the matter by 
the managers. ELLIOT SMITH,

DOGS ON THE LONG [{SLAND ROAD,—The Long Island 
Railroad Company, 115 Broadway, New York, Noy. 
Editor Forest and Stream: 1 desire to correct the statement 
published in last week's issue of Forest anp StRRAM, that 
charges are made for transportation of dogs upon this com- 
pany’s railroad. As you will see by inclosed copy of circular, 
dated June 26, 1884, such charges were discontinued, and since 
that dateno charges haye been made to our knowledge, By 
noticing this correction, since there is no ground for your cor- 
respondent's complaint, you will greatly oblige, J. R. Max- 
WELL, Vice-President; The cireular reads as follows: ‘‘Long 
Island Railroad. Special notice to baggage masters and all 
concerned, From and after this date thers will be no charge 
made for dogs. when accompanied by a passenger. Only lap 
dogs will be allowed in the coaches. All other dogs must be 
carried in the baggage car, This rule must be rigidly inforced,

KENNEL MANAGEMENT. 
2" No Notice Taken of Anonymous Correspondents. 
Doctor, Southington, Conn.—My two-year old pointer has con- 
stantly sore and mattery eyes, the lower lids projecting out showing 
the inside of the eyelid red andinflamed. In the morning his eyes 
will be filled with matter so as to almost blind him, Heseems well 
es pe exponen of this trouble. Ans, See answer to H. ©. C., of 
ord, 
W. 5S. T., Huntington, L. IL—I have a Sensation puppy, seven 
months old that has had the distemper very lightly, but has left her 
weak in her spine so that she falls down and drags her hind parts 
atter her, but at times will trot off as if nothing was the matter, Ans. 
Give your dog three drops of the tincture of nux yomica three times 
a day in herfood. Continue for two weeks and report. 
W. 4H.5., Dion, N. Y.—Could you tell me in what way I could 
benefit the eyes of my setter dog. Of late I have noticed a film 
Ffradually growing over the eye ball, and I was told that by rubbing 
a certain preparation on the film (the name of which I could not get) 
that it would stop its growth, Ans. You may get a solution of 
alam, ten grains to the ounce of water, and a medicine dropper, and 
let two or three drops fall into the eyes twice or three times daily, 
Report result. 
D. L. G., Salt Lake City, Utah—My setter dog’s breath smells bad, 
It seems all right in other respects. Can you mention a.remedy for 
it through your columns? Ans. Itis impossible to say from your de- 
scription whether the trouble is the result of defective teeth or a dis- 
ordered stomach. If the latter is the case, use powdered charcoal, 
two or three teaspoonsful mixed with the food. I0¢ isan excellent 
absorbing disinfectant. It makes the food look repulsive, but is 
tasteless, and your dog will eat the food readily. 
Jay Cer, Wilmington, N. C,—Please prescribe for my setter pups, 
both affected alike. There seems to be a soft- enlargement of the 
throat, very noticeable. The puppies are about three months old, 
and have been so troubled for about a month. The lumps are soft 
and move with the skin from side to side. Do not seem to trouble 
their feeding or bother them in any way save their looks. Ans. Your 
pune have enlargement of the thymus or thyroid glands. There is 
ittle to be done beyond looking out for their general condition. If it 
is enlargement of the thymus they will outgrow it. If of the thyroid 
and ib persists, you can have it removed later. You may try rubbing 
the tumors with iodine ointment. 
C, E.N., Brandon, Man.—I wish you would tell me what is the 
matter with my retriever; he is dull and pokish, has a cough, and is 
always trying to vomil, which, when he does, is of a greenish color. 
He is not sick and looks bright in the coat, but is always lying around. 
Aus, Dog is suffering from some stomach trouble, perhaps gastric 
catarrh, Heneeds tobe toned up. Perhaps your dog does not get 
enough exercise, Perhaps he lies about thestovetoo much. Are his 
bowels free? If not, give him one or two tablespoonsful of castor oil. 
Feed him on mush boiled with scraps of meat. Weed him but once a 
day on the above, “seryed’’ cold. If he does not improve, have per- 
scription made up as follows: Fowler’s solution, 1 ounce; simple 
Syrup, 2 ounces; water to makes ounces. Dose, teaspoonful with 
food three times a day. 
M. F, H., Lambertyille-—Ii have a pointer dog which I purchased 
last winter. The man which I purchased him from said he was only 
six years old, He was very thin when I got him; I commenced feed- 
ing him well, and he got in fine order and was very lively in a short 
time. He got very poor again. when I would take him out for exer- 
cise he would get sick and yomit, then he would play out. I thoughn 
he had worms, andI got powders two different times; but he did not 
pass ae When Ii take him out now he yomits and plays out soon, 
and will not eal for three or four days after a small hunt. I notice he 
will never jump a fence when out, he will always iook well fora place 
togounder. At times he will take a bad spell. he will shake his head, 
and when he shakes his whole body he sounds inside like an empty 
barrel. Two weeks ago I took him out, he was very lively in ae 
start, and hunted well for a short time wheu he commencéd to 
lag and to vomit. He got downa small hill and could not get up 
again; I would lift him up, but he would fall tight back again. He 
laid there and would not notice me. He laid there about eight hours. 
He gave out behind. When he came to he got up and was very stiff, 
and remains so still. He is looking very bad and weak. This summer 
he would always dig a hole in the ground and layin it. What shall I 
do for him? Ans, Difficult to say what is the matter with your dog. 
Strengthening food and tonics are recommended, Get two ounces of 
Donovan’s solution of arsenic and give your dog five drops morning 
and evening in his food, and report result of treatment. This prepara- 
tion is poison, and the above dose must not be exceeded, nor must it 
be continued more than three weeks at a time. 
C. H., Paris, Ul=My pointer is about three years old, and had fits 
until the latter part of 1882. The next year he commenced having 
them again, and has had them ever since. He generally has the fib 
when I get about a mile and a half from home and it lasts about five 
or ten minutes, after which he gets up and runsaway fromme, He 
never has a fit except when IT take him hunting, and appears to be 
perfectly well at home. His appetite very good, can hardly eat 
enough. Ans, The fits may be epileptic or may result from a dis- 
ordered stomach. You probably feed your dog too highly, perhaps 
you feed him on raw meat, which is bad, except after a day’s hunt- 
ing and when the dog is working. Tlie ordmary food should contain 
only asmall amount of cooked meatin mush or some other farina- 
ceous material, 
H. C. C., Hartford, Conn.—My setter’s eyes have troubled him for 
some time by discharging from the inner corners, the discharge being 
the worst during and immediately after violent exercise, and at such 
times the corners look red and inflamed. In ons of the eyes there is 
a white substancé growing about one-quarter of an inch long and 
about as big around as a smal pin, It lies on the eye and is attached 
by one end inthe corner, Is there anything thatI can give the dog 
or do for him to get his eyes back fo a normal condition? Ans, You 
may get a solution of the sulphate of zinc, two grains to the ounce, 
and sponge your dog’s eyes and lids with a fins sponge twice daily, 
and also let two or three drops fall into the eye, We cannot tellfrom 
your description what the small tumor may be, You had better con- 
sult a veterinary surgeon. 
C., Mansfield, Mass.—-Pointer dog, two years old, stands quite high, 
rather slim built, weighs 45 or 50 pounds; color, liver and white. Last 
séason hunted him nearly every day and he performed as well as I 
could wish. This fall he acts played out. He gets tired with very 
little exercise and does not point one-half the birds; cannot find them, 
apparently. Shakes his head considerable, a ropy substance comes 
from mouth, and in the morning his eyes are full of thick matter. 
Appears to have a humor of some kind. Coat looks rusty. Appetite 
immense, eats everything he can get. I feed him johnny cake and 
scraps from the table, with occasional méal of meat, boiled, and the 
liquid mixed with meal, Will you please advise, through Forrsr 
AND STREAM, some remedy? Ans. You dog has worms. This ex- 
plains all his symptoms, Get two ounces of the oil of wormseed (Ol. 
chenepodii) and give him ten drops, three times daily, on a lump of 
sugar. Purge him first with two tablespoonsful of castor oil. Feed 
him lightly for the present. 
H. J. B., Buffalo, N. ¥Y.—l am the owner of a setter dog about six 
years old. Last spring he came running in from the street, and stand- 
ing in the room commenced totremble. His trembling seems te com- 
mence at the head and geis stronger as it reaches the hind legs, when 
he will fall to the floor, He will then tremble and streteh his legs, 
and appear yery stiff. He will remain in this position about two or 
three minutes, and will then geb up and shake himself and appear ijn 
as good health as before. Hehas had four of these attacks since 
last spring, the last one afew days ago. He seems to know every 
time he is going to have one of these attacks, for he comes in and 
rubs his head against me to attract my attention. He does not froth 
at the mouth, and seems to be looking right at meall the time he is 
in one of those spasms. Will you please tell me what ails my dog, 
and what I can dofor him? Hehad one of thosespeélis once when 
woodcock shooting. Please answer the above. Ans, Giye more par- 
ticulars about the dog; his general condition; how bis eatmg and 
digestion are; whether he has regular passages; examine the pas- 
sages for worms. Do not feed too highly, Only give raw meat when 
working, and very little cooked meat when idle. 
H. M. P., Phila._I have a twelve months old English setter bitch 
who has been so peculiarly affected that I would like to tell you of 
her. Sbe must be of a very sensitive, sympathetic, nervous system, 
Karly last summer, when between six and seven months of age, Thad 
her sent down to Cape May, and after riding eight or ten miles on 
steam ears, she became very sick of stomach and vomited profusely. 
Three months later, on her retnrn, she was similarly affected; ten 
days later I sent her only six miles on the railroad and again she was 
fearfully sick. On the 1vth inst, I had her brought to the city, as she 
Was in heat, to be served, it being her sixth or seventh day. While 
riding the six miles on steam curs she was not at all sick and came 
very near bemg lined at the ferry while my back was turned. After 
leaving the steam cars she had two miles to ride on horserailway and 
she was then sick worse than any time before, and the most peculiar 
part was that she at once went out of heat and would not take the 
dog that morning, nor any time after during the week when repeatedly 
the dog was let with her. I was very anxious lo haye her served 
and it was most proyoking indeed, that her ‘sea, sickness’? produced 
the effect it did. Did you ever hear of a similar case of dog sickness, 
and do you think that that morning’s ride causing the sick stomach 
caused her “heat” to leave her? What would you advise in such a 
case to prevent the sick stomach? Ans. The case of your bitch isnot 
aunique one, Thenext time you had better either have the dog 
brought to her or take time enough to allow her to rest over night 
after the journey. There are many remedies for this stomacti sick- 
ness, such as a tablespoonful of lime water in milk or five or ten drops

Worms in Doas, one dose a cure. ‘'Cross Keys, Newport, Mon., 
April 1, 1873.—A very valuable retriever of mine has been losing his 
coat and looking very thin, and although treated by a veterinary and 
dog fancier, he did not in any way improve, so I gave him one-half 
of a Naldire’s Powder, and in twenty-five minutes he evacuated 27 
feet of a very broad tapeworm. My dog is new doimg well on one- 
half of the food he had before, and I say with others that nu one 
possessing dogs should be without Naldire’s Powders. C, Lewis.”
