KENNEL MANAGEMENT. 

 tgl*™ No Notice Taken of Anonymous Correspondents. 



R. TJ. W., Albion, N. Y.— My cocker spaniel pup, eleven months old, 



basflts when exercised, he is otherwise in good health, is not over 

 fed, has a, good yard to run in. AVill medicine help bim, if so what 

 kind: Ans. Give your dog one or two teaspoonsful of syrup of buck- 

 thorn each dav and keep him on low diet. If this does not help him 

 after a week give ten drops of tincture of nux vomica in sweetened 

 water twice daily. 



The Charleston (S. C.) News tells this story of the dog-pound 

 in that cit v : ' 'While the reporter and policeman were talking 

 a very small white boy, barefooted and only wearing a kilt, 

 dodged under the club of the policeman at the door and went 

 up to the pound. He stood near the pound, and with tears in 

 his eyes cried out 'Billv.' The call was answered by a shaggy 

 little terrier, which had evidently been asleep, but which 

 was aroused by the familiar name, and came at once to the 

 rail, wagaing his little stump tail, and the recognition was 

 mutual. The little fellow wanted his dog, but the stern official 

 at the rouud table informed him that he would have to pay $2 

 before he could be allowed to take his pet away. The law 

 having been explained to the youngster, he dried his eyes, 

 wiping away the tears on the cuff of his kilt, and starting out, 

 said: 'Mister, please don't kill Billy till I come back. I've 

 got the money in my savings bank, an' I'm going to get it.' "

ANOTHER CURIOUS BULLET. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



I was much interested in the article of "W. A. A." in the issue of 

 March 10. beaded "A Curious Bullet," more especially as I have had 

 for several years in my cabinet specimens obtained from the dissec- 

 tion of game aud otherwise, a bullet of shape something similar, 

 caused evidently by similar forces. It is herewith inclosed marked 

 "A." U was picked up among a good many other bullets in the 

 spring of 1882, after the melting of a snowbank just in rear of the 

 target of a 201-yard range near Bowman, Montana, by E. HotVr, one 

 of the guides of the Yellowstone National Park, and had been fired 

 over said range during the winter before. It was originally a .45-cal. 

 550-grains bullet of H6 inches length, but has been elongated to 

 1.558 inches length after leaving the ride. It was fired evidently from 

 a Sharps ride, and this elongation and reduction of diameter about 

 midway of length, evidently took place between the time of leaving 

 the muzzle and its coming to a state of rest. As will be perceived, its 

 weight has not been reduced in the least, and its diameter has been 

 reduced to .388 inches by the process of.elougation. I have often en- 

 deavorcd to arrive at a plausible reason for this elongatiou. Evidently 

 either the rear or front part of the bullet was retarded, while the 

 other portion pulled forward, but there is no mark on either end to 

 indicate this. Can any plausible reason be assigned? 



I inclose two other bullets picked up at the same time, of the same 

 class ( 45-550- 1).j) that are inclosed, in orderto illustrate another phase 

 of the subject,'/ ~.e.. the question as to the instant of time the "upsetting" 

 of the bullet takes place. Bullet marked B indicates that the com- 

 plete "Upsetting" occurred before it left the shell, for there is the 

 impression of the mouth of the shell around its base to the depth it 

 was loaded into the shell. Forward of this narrow ring around the 

 base are the impressions of the lands. This shows that no upsetting 

 occurred after this ball left the shell, else the base would likewise 

 have the impressions of the lands. Bullet marked C has the impres- 

 sion of the shell around its base to the depth loaded into the shell, 

 but it has likewise the impression of the lands for the full length of 

 the bullet, indicating that the upsetting of the base of ball occurred 

 before leaving the shell. 



After leaving the shell, however, further upsetting occurred suffi- 

 cient at least to upset this narrow ring around the base, so as to make 

 it bear upon the lands. I have other balls of the same class, nicked 

 up at the same time, that indicate, in their case, that the upsetting 

 at the base occurred after leaving the shell. These specimens prove 

 to my satisfaction that in their case the upsetting occurs very near 

 the instant of time of the commencement of the ignition of the pow- 

 der. I think this holds good also with the lighter balls. P.
