KENNEL MANAGEMENT. 

 <%W No Notice Taken of Anonymous Correspondents. 



G. W. A.. Boston— My pointer bitch, eight years old, has an ir- 

 ruption, or scaling off of the hair, on her hip joints and a little 

 of the same trouble on her sides. Mango cures do not seem to re- 

 lieve her and her companion dogs do not seem to catch the ail- 

 ment tl ough she has had it some months. What do you suggest 

 as a remedy for his troubles? Ans.— Keep bowels clear. Give 5 

 drops of Fowler's solution of arsenic night and morning. Keep 

 this up for 3 weeks and then omit one week and begin again. 



R. J. H., Lynn, Mass.— I have a valuable St. Bernard dog, 15 

 months old, which I would like to enter in the N. E. K. C. bench 

 show next April, but owing to his want of appetite. I cannot get 

 any flesh on him. The only food he will eat with any relish is 

 clear meat, which I cannot afford to give him. If meat is mixed 

 with other food he does not like it, and will only eat enough to 

 keep alive; yet he seems to he in perfect, health, except, that his 

 nose is often hot and dry. He is very large, standing over 29in., 

 but weighs only 901bs. Please advise me what to do for him and 

 oblige a constant reader. Ans. Feed no ra w meat. Give cooked 

 meat sparingly mixed in with corn meal mush served cold. 

 Exercise regularly. Keep bowels open and give 5grs. of quinine 

 m pill form night and morning. 



Connecticut. -An English setter bitch S^yrs. old had her second 

 litter of puppies Nov. 17. Puppies have been perfectly healthy and 

 have grown nicely. About Dec. 23 bitch appeared to become nearly 

 paralyzed, and although about the coldest day this season, she 

 stood panting with fever, but wagged her tail and appeared not 

 to be in pain. Later she lay down exhausted, and next day ap- 

 peared nearly well except weak. Ga ve her white of egg at first for 

 poison, but concluded it was not that, and have not given any 

 medicine. Dave taken her on short hunting trip since, and after 

 an hour's run same symptoms came on again; legs refused to go 

 and appeal er) weak and tired out, hut no panting. Since whelp- 

 ing milk has flowed nearly all the lime,but lately lias but little color 

 to it and nearly stopped. Have gradually weaned the puppies. 

 She was a little too fat before whelping, and is in good order now, 

 but hair appears dull and she acts far from well and is not im- 

 proving, although puppies are about weaned. What ails her and 

 how shall we treat her? Ans. She may have some spinal trouble, 

 but probably it is due to the weakness and antemia incident to 

 whelping. Nutritious diet, tonics and stimulants will bring her 

 around. Give 5 grains of quinine each morning and a 2-graiu pill 

 of the citrate of iron and strychnine every evening. You can con- 

 ceal the pills in a morsel of meat. Do not feed raw meat and not 

 a great deal of cooked. Keep the bowels open by oil or syrup of 

 buckthorn. 



Subscriber. Denver, S. C— In my kennel of running dogs I 

 frequently notice some of them that seem to have some kind of 

 skin disease, the symptoms of which are about as follows: The 

 first thing noticed is a reddish, chafed appearance of the skin on 

 inside of arms and (highs and lower parts of body, which gradu- 

 ally extends to other parts of body, causing the hair to fall out 

 These symptoms are attended by an itching sensation which 

 causes the dog to scratch to such an extent that in places the skin 

 becomes raw. A kind of yellow gummy substance exudes from 

 the skin which has an offensive, doegv smell when dogs are 

 heated. Both old dogs and puppies aire affected by it, and it 

 seems to be contagious. I rirst noticed its appearance last sum- 

 mer m a couple of bitches that were weaning pups. Have had 

 some success with various external remedies, such as a mixture 

 of common tar and lard well rubbed in after thoroughly washing 

 the dog with warm water and soap. Also train oil arid sulphur 

 used as above, and sulphur and lard, etc. Have also given inter- 

 nally from three to four drops of Fowler's solution of arsenic two 

 or three times a day in food. The dogs are regularly fed and 

 housed every night in dry kennels. Their bedding consists of 

 hay or straw frequently changed. Barring the above symptoms 

 the health and general appearance of dogs are good. Can you 

 tell me from above description what will cure it most success- 

 fully without injury to the dog? Ans. Eczema or mange. The 

 tar, sulphur and other remedies you mention are all good. Zinc 

 oxide ointment is good, diachylon ointment is good, anda mixture 

 of the two latter is often beneficial. The parts should be care- 

 fully sponged with warm water and castile soap first. Fowler's 

 solution should not be used for more than three weeks, as arsenic 

 collects in the 6ystem. After omitting a week it can be com- 

 menced again.

SECRETARY SHEPHERD'S REPORT. 



New York, Jan. 8. 1889. 

 Mr. President and Life Members of the National Ritlc Association: 



Your Secretary submits the following report of the transactions 

 of this Association for the year 1868: The annual meeting of the 

 life members was held at the armory of the 22d Regiment on 

 Jan. 10, when the following-named members were reelected Direc- 

 tors for the term of three years, viz.: Major ShorlGev, Captains 

 Witthaus and Brown, Mr. Jas. Duane and the undersigned; and 

 for a term of two years. Capt. Nesbitt. Gen. Bartlett was elected 

 for one year, but declined to serve, and the vacancy has never 

 been filled. The reorganization of the Board of Directors took 

 place at a special meeting held the same evening, when Gen. 

 Woodward was elected President and the. Secretary and Treas- 

 urer were reelected. No change has taken place during the past 

 year in our list of Active Directors, but we have lost from our 

 Honorary roll a very prominent member, Mr. David W. Judd, 

 who died on the 6th of February last. 



The Board has held eleven meetings since my last report, and 

 at the meeting of Dec. 13, when thirteen Directors were present, 

 ;t was unanimously voted to introduce a bill at Albany with the 

 view of turning over to the State our property at Creedinoor, con- 

 ditional on an appropriation of $35,000, which sum is to be used to 

 purchase the West range and such other land as maybe needed to 

 secure in the future the use of the present property as a rifle 

 range, and to make the repairs and improvement s that are now 

 absolutely required and for which the Association has not the 

 necessary funds. 



The leases of the present office in Temple Court and of the 

 ground at Creedmoor known as the West range were both renewed 

 for one year. 



The fall meeting was commenced on Sept. 10 and continued 

 through the week; the attendance was not as large as we should 

 S'VX. 6 t0 see ' an(i the meeting resulted in a loss of nearly 



$400. The matches for the qualification as Marksmen of the 

 members of the National Guard show an increased interest every 

 year, and notwithstanding a very large reduction in the price of 

 entries, the net result has been to put into our treasury the sum 

 ot $1,<60. The match shot, on Election Day showed over 420 com- 

 petitors, representing every infantry organization in the First 

 and Second Brigades. 



I have also to acknowledge the. receipt of valuable prizes from 

 Messrs. Tiffany & Co., Benedict, Bros., and the staffs of the First 

 and Second Brigades. 



The Treasurer's report shows the largest balance on hand at the 

 close of the year that we have had since 1873, with the exception 

 of the year 1882. Respectfully submitted, 



John S. Shepherd, Secretary.

EXPERT PISTOL SHOOTING.-On Dec. 6 Mr. Jas. Conlin, 

 the veteran gallery man, inaugurated two of the best contested 

 off-hand matches that have been shot in many a day, the one in 

 the famous White Elephant rifle range, on the Massachusetts 

 Rifle Association target, and the other in his world famous gal- 

 lery on the northwest corner of Thirty-first street and Broadway, 

 which was shot on the new expert's target at the French range of 

 53J4ft. At the White Elephant range the match on the Massa- 

 chusetts target was shot at the long range, and was one of the 

 closest contested of the large number of matches that have been 

 fought on this popular range. The match was for three hand- 

 some medals, two gold and one silver, which were won in the fol- 

 lowing order, with the list of some of the best scores made in the 

 match:

The possible in this match was 252. 



The match on the expert's target was won after a very hard 

 struggle by G. Snellen, of Our Own Rifle Club, of Newark. 1ST. J. 

 He is one of the strongest indoor shots of the dav, but Mr. Hiscoe 

 is to be highly commended for the strong fight he made for the 

 first place, this being the second match in which he ever partici- 

 pated, having won the first in the Massachusetts target match at 

 the White Elephant. Below will be found the scores, the. possible
