STRAYS.— Editor Forest and Stream: I have had the 

 very worst luck lately with my dogs iu having them stolen 

 or strayed. On the 22d of January the well-known Irish 

 terrier Greymont, which I had just had a few days from 

 Mr. Wheeler, disappeared and not a trace of him has been 

 heard of since. On Tuesday, the 26th of March, my little 

 black spaniel bitch Topsey (Doc— Beue) was let out for exer- 

 cise as usual, and has never been seen since. She was not a 

 show bitch, but she was a very handsome little thing about 

 lSlbs, weight, but rather fat, all black with a suipy nose. 

 Greymont was as fine an Irish terrier as has ever been im- 

 ported; red, with good bead and splendid coat, If any of 

 your readers should run across either of these dogs I should 

 be so much obliged if they would write me.— J. S. NlYEN. 



SALE OF PATSY.— Northampton, Mass., April 8 — 

 Editor Form and Stream: I have sold to Mr. F. H. Perry, 

 of Des Moines. Iowa, the Irish setter Patsy, imported by Mr. 

 C. II. Mason and brought into prominence by this gentle- 

 man's pen, in your issue of Dec. 13 last. In writing 

 to me of this dog's quality Mr. Mason says: ''Size is his 

 drawback. If you will look at him carefully, you will see. 

 he has great bone, decidedly more substance, stronger loins, 

 deeper chest, better feet than Tim, and that he is of much 

 better color. Elcho, Jr., would beat him under most 

 judges, but his better size would be the strong point in his 

 favor." Mr. Mason says he is a "hot one," it must be so.— E. 

 O. Damon.

KENNEL MANAGEMENT. 



(W No Notice Taken ol Anonym ous Correspondents. 



R. D. W., St. John, N. B.— A pointer bitch shows signs of mange 

 on breast and top of head. Her mother was afflicted with same 

 disease. Kindly inform me if mango is hereditary and also give 

 me a remedy for it. Ans. Mange is not hereditary, but the same 

 conditions and surroundings may have produced it in both dogs. 

 Wash the parts with carbolic soap, dry and apply a li title zinc 

 oxide ointment night and morning. Keep the bowels clear and 

 give 4 drops of Fowler's solution or arsenic night and morning in 

 the food. 



Am. A. Teub.— My setter bitch, six months old, when let loose 

 from the. kennel, commences sneezing and keeps it up, off and on, 

 four or five minutes. Any unusual exertion makes her act as 

 though she was going to vomit; she will stand drawing her breath 

 in with a wheezing noise, with her head down and mouth nearly 

 closed, and looks like she had an attack of asthma and vomiting 

 at the same time; she throws up nothing; her nose is dry. A 

 friend told me she had the snuffles. Ans. It is hard to say what 

 is the trouble without seeing the animal. Give a full dose of cas- 

 tor oil and follow t his with a 4gr. pill of quinine and give one pill 

 each day. Look for worms. 



B. A. E., West Fairlee, Vt.— I have a foxhound, three years old, 

 that has a trouble, with his ears or head; he is continually shaking 

 his head or digging his ears witii his feet. On examining the ears 

 I find them somewhat inflamed, otherwise they appear well. 

 What can I do to help him'/ 1 have written you, knowing no other 

 place where I could get reliable information. Ans. Wash ears 

 carefully and drop a little of the following into them night and 

 morning: 



R Tr. opii 3 i 



Bromo chloral 3 i 



Aq 5 ii 



Mix. External. 



H. C. N., Ashburnham, Mass.— Please tell me what to do for the 

 worst case of canker in ear I ever had. I tried weak solution of 

 carbolic acid, also bromo chloratnm and laudanum, and it kept 

 growing worse. The bitch (a foxhound) has just weaned a 

 litter of pups; has been loose, and as she is a great forager, has 

 got fat. I have had her in chain for two weeks and fed hor light 

 on soup of lean meat with plenty of vegetables boiled in it and 

 thickened with Indian meal. The canker is very deep-seated, 

 and when I wash out her ears they wiR be full of yellow matter, 

 and almost the whole of the flat of the ear inside is raw. I never 

 had a case before that was not easily cured by using chloralum 

 and laudanum, but it seems to irritate and make it worse. Ans. 

 Alternate the bromo chloral and laudanum with solution of sul- 

 pho-carbolate of zinc, 2grs. to the oz. Dust powdered calomel 

 over the raw surface after washing and drying. Keep the bowels 

 loose. Exercise. While the bitch is so fat it will be hard to get 

 rid of the trouble.

WILMINGTON, Del., April 3.— On accuunt of the rain of Mon- 

 day afternoon the regular weekly shooting at Healdmoor Rifle 

 Range was postponed until this afternoon. Hardly had the 

 shooting got fairly under way when down came two or three 

 April showers to torment the already overtaxed riflemen, but the 

 shooting was continued in spite of all annoyances, and resulted in 

 a good full afternoon's work, which embraced some of the best 

 scores ever made at the range. Several individual records went 

 up with a boom. Harry Darlington, in raising his revolver re- 

 cord to 90. also recorded a clean score of bullseyes, the first made 

 in this State. A trial was made of the Stevens Gould model .22- 

 cal. pistol, and, although all were pleased with the beautiful little 

 weapon, favor was about equally with the Smith & Wesson revol- 

 ver as a target weapon. Following arc the scores in detail, stan-

PHILO REMINGTON.— The death is announced from Silver 

 Springs. Fla., of Mr. Philo Remington on the morning of April 4, 

 He was born in 1816, and was the oldest son of Eliphalet Reming- 

 ton, the founder of the great armory at Dion that bears his name. 

 Early in life the son was placed in his father's shops, and tnor- 

 oughly learned all the details of the mechanical work, and later 

 he was made superintendent of the armory. On his father's death, 

 in 1861, Mr. Remington became senior member of the. firm of E. 

 Remington & Sons. In the perfecting of the various inventions of 

 the machines and weapons made by the Arm, Philo Remington did 

 a great deal to make them successful. Mr. Remington was for 

 twenty years president of the village of Dion, where he lived 

 nearly all his life. Mr. Remington and his brothers, Samuel and 

 Eliphalet, were generous in their gilts to the Syracuse University, 

 which has received about $250,000 from them. Mr. Remington's 

 wife and two daughters— Mrs. W. C. Squire, of Washington Ter- 

 ritory, and Mrs. H. C. Furman, of New York— survive him.

 paigns. He was a member of the first California rifle team sent 

 to Creedmoor in 1879. Colonel Austen is now making arrange- 

 ments to take the regiment to Minneapolis in August, and it is 

 proposed that the regiment shall forthwith go into active rifle 

 practice training under his guidance, with the view of having 

 Colonel Austen challenge the State troops of Minnesota and 

 neighboring States, as also the United States regulars in the 

 military division of the Missouri, to two military matches; first, 

 a regimental team match, and secondly, a company match, to be
