KENNEL MANAGEMENT. 



XW" No Notice Taken of Anonymous Correspondents. 



C. H. S., Chestnut Hill —I have a setter pup four months old which 

 has had round worms for some time. He has passed three or four 

 at different times about seven inches long. He is now very thin and 

 does not eat very much, l is coat seems dead. Have given him 

 areca nut and santonine, but it did no good. Ans. Your puppy prob- 

 ably still suffers from worms You may try the fluid extract of 

 spigelia and senna in teaspoouful doses after a fast of twelve or 

 twenty-four hours. If no worms are passed, tone your dog up with 

 nourishing food and give three drops of Fowler's solution three times 

 doily. 



H. D. M. Melbourne, Quebec— My water spaniel bad some sort of 

 lice on her and continual scratching has caused two or three soretf to 

 appear which I healed by wasbiug with soap and applying goose oil, 

 and as far as I can see all the lice have left her, but the skin is scaley 

 and dry looking and her hair is thin in places. There does not appear 

 to be any appearance of mange. What can I do to matte her hnir 

 soft and glossy as it naturally is and to clean her skin of this dandruff. 

 I have washed her several times but it does not appear to take it off. 

 Ans. After washing your dog, rub in vaseline in moderate quantity. 

 This renders the coat glossy and softens the skin. Give five drops 

 of Fowler's solution of arsenic in the food night and morning. 



A Rkadeb, Peterboro, N. H.— My beagle is in very thin flesh, and 

 will not eat well. At times his nose is hot and his no»e and eyes run 

 a little. If a little frightened or excited his eyes turn green . At 

 times his breath is unpleasant, but never very bad. Can And nothing 

 to show that he has worms. He is built right to stand a large amount 

 of work, but if he runs a few hours he will seem very tired the next 

 day, and his eyes will be almost closed. His feed is Indian meal 

 cakes with milk and table scraps. Have tried other kinds of feed, 

 but he will only eat a little. He is fifteen months old and has been 

 In the same condition the three months I have had him. Have given 

 him no medicine, not knowing what to use. Ans. Give your beagle 

 five drops of Fowler's solution of arsenic in his food night and morn- 

 ing. His protean eyes will come out all right. When the pupil dilates 

 they look green, when it contracts the eyes look black. 



J. H., Cleveland, O. — L My beagle puppies, four weeks old, are get- 

 ting lumps in their throats. I keep them in a perfectly clean and 

 dry box about 3ft x2ft., with clean excel ior for bedding every day, 

 2. My beagle bitch has worms, such as I have never seen before. 

 Have given her two grains of santonine and a purge about four hours 

 after, purge thrown up five minutes after taking; throws up food 

 frequently; otherwise lively; appetite good. Ans. 1. It is impossible 

 to say from this distance and without more particulars, what causes 

 the liimors In your pupp les, it is doubtless enlargment of the glands, 

 salivary or lymphatic. It may be that your dogs do not get enough 

 of the right kind of milk from the mother. Test the milk with litmus 

 paper and see whether it is acid or alkaline, if the former give soda 

 in the food or lime water in the milk. You may try cod liver oil in 

 teaspoonf ul doses three times daily to the puppies. 2. The bitch has 

 a tapeworm. Fast her for twenty four hours and give thirty drops 

 of the oleoresin of a«pidium or fllix mas; purge in three hours with 

 castor oil. After treatment build her up with nourishing food. 



Humphreys' Veterinary System.— No well-informed person denies 

 that the ownership of animals involves the obligation of their proper 

 nursing and care when sick. It is generally admitted that the com- 

 mon mode of treatment is cruel as well as wasteful in life and suffer- 

 ing. But before you condemn us show us a bett er system. Now, this 

 is precisely what we propose to do. Humphreys' Homeopathic Vet- 

 erinary specifics have been in use twenty -five years, and the testi- 

 mony of respectable horse and stock ownei s of the results are en- 

 tirely satisfactory. The medicines are suited to almost every possi- 

 ble disease among domestic animals, and can be given without the 

 slightest trouble. They are not pois mous nor destructive to health, 

 but cure in far less time than any other remedies. This system of 

 treatment is free trom intricacy or difficulty, one that tells the owner 

 just what to do and how to do it, and while safe and satisfactory in 

 results, it secures the animal from all cruelty and unkindness. More- 

 over it affords the best chance for their recovery and renewed useful- 

 ness. We think we are acting in the interest and for the benefit of 

 our animal friends, who canuot speak for themselves, when we cor- 

 dially indorse Humphreys' Homeopathic Veterinary Specifics.— Adv.

THE SPRINGFIELD TOURNAMENT. 



SPRINGFIELD, Mass., July 6.— The New England Rifle Association 

 could not have had a more propitious day for the opening of their 

 four days' tournament at Riverside Grove than to-day. There was 

 sufficient shade to make it a delightful place to shoot, and the sharp 

 whizzing of the bullets kept excitement at high tide throughout the 

 day. Only a few of the visiting delegates arrived in time to take the 

 early boat to the grove. Hartford and Meriden each sent a score of 

 men who were accompanied by Colt's band, of Hartford; Fort Trum- 

 bull had two representatives and the Springfield Schuetzenverein 

 mustered 32 shooters. 



Shooting was not begun till after 11 o'clocir. when 10 of the 11 

 matches were opened. These 10 matches will be continuous through 

 the four days, and the only event of the day which counted for men- 

 tion was the target of honor, opened at 3 o'clock. The first shot was 

 by Capt. Buchholz, who fired a salute in honor of President Cleve-

July 7— Sunny skies and just wind enough to make a welcome 

 breeze opened the second day of the New England Rifle Association's 

 tournament at Riverside Grove, and the competing riflemen and their 

 friends were correspondingly happy. The attendance was much 

 better than on the first day. Many prominent marksmen arrived 

 during the day, and at once started to compete for the honors.

 formerly of this city but now of Brattleboro, Vt., and Sergt. Lowry 

 and Corp. Stamford, from Fort TrumbuU, Conn. 



Shooting on the different targets was m brisK progress all day, but 

 interest centered in the competition on the "target of honor," which

The City guard's team of this city have so far been the only ones 

 to shoot in the military team match, although several teams from 

 other military organizations have entered. The following is the score 

 of shooting by this team : 



Lieut McDonald 44543-20 T T Cartwright 44434-19 



Sergt Sterling 45548-21 E T Stephens 44454 - 21 



M W Bull 54555—24 



W. A. White, of Worcester, was, up to to-night, first on the Mass- 

 achusetts target, and George Joyner of Brooklyn had a good lead on 

 both the Man and German ring targets. Some remarkable shooting 

 was done by Louis Brehm, secretary of the Pittsburg (Pa.) Rifle Club, 

 with a 10-pound rifle he has made 45 bullseyes. Probably the most 

 difficult feat in the entire tournament is making a respectable num- 

 ber of bulheyes on the 2}4 inch bullseye target, and not many of 

 the marksmen present have yet made much of a record except J. A. 

 Higgins, of Pittsburg, who has succeeded in making seven bullseyes. 

 Capt. Buchholz performed the pleasant duty of crowning the winner 

 of the "target of honor" match, T. T. Cartwright, last evening in bis 

 usual happy manner, and the new king of the Schuetzenbund for 

 1886 responded in a brief speech. 



July 8.— To-day was strictly devoted to business at tbe Schueizen- 

 verern's tournament at Riverside Grove, each marksman present 

 banging away steadily at the targets from 9:30 in the morning until 

 7:30 P. M , the closing hour. A large number of spectators were in 

 attendance, and showed much interest. It was not an extra day for 

 fine shooting, the wind being rather strong and the light variable, 

 but some good scores were made Many more noted marksmen have 

 arrived, iucluding F. Hawks, of Collinsville, Conn.; William Hayes, 

 of Newark, N. J. ; R. A. Whipple, of Adams: George E. Betts and W. 

 H. Beardsley. of Bridgeport. Conn. ; OA Hynds, of Orange; G. R. 

 Warfield, of Gardner; G. R. Russell and J. N. Frye, of Boston; J. F. 

 Klein, of Creedmoor, N. Y., and many others. The arrival of the day, 

 however, was that of the famous Zettler Rifle Club, of New York 

 city, their two crack shots. C. G. Zettler and T. J. Dolan, who are ex- 

 pected to do some splendid work. The question of which militia 

 team will win the handsome sword offered for first prize seems to lay 

 between the City and Peabody Guards, no other teams having as ye
