“Like  the  old  gray  mule 
— they  never  die” 
Mr.  Wesley  Overton,  Bridgeport,  Oklahoma,  owns 
four  OILPULLS.  In  a  recent  letter  he  says,  “I  have  put 
these  OILPULLS  in  places  where  a  good  horse  could 
not  go  and  they  pulled  out  easily.  They  are  a  good  in¬ 
vestment.  I  have  never  found  an  OILPULL  in  the  scrap 
pile.  They  seem  to  be  ‘like  the  old  gray  mule  —  they 
never  die’.” 
Long  life  is  only  one  result  that  comes  from  the  care¬ 
ful  building  of  the  OILPULL.  Letters  received  from 
every  section  of  the  country  mention  this.  But  there 
are,  also,  thousands  of  other  letters  which  point  out  the 
unusual  dependability — the  great  saving  in  fuel — the 
remarkably  low  upkeep  cost— farmers  are  experiencing. 
All  are  largely  the  result  of  Triple  Heat  Control,  dual 
lubrication  and  other  OILPULL  features.

No  matter  where  you  are  located 
we  can  send  you  letters  from  your 
district  —  maybe  from  neighbors 
— who  have  used  and  proved  out 
the  OILPULL.  Read  these  let¬ 
ters.  They  are  interesting.  They 
are  convincing.  They  tell  the  story 
of  the  OILPULL  from  YOUR 
side.  Just  ask  us  to  send  along  the 
letter.  We  will  include  our  new 
booklet  on  Triple  Heat  Control 
and  other  interesting  literature.

Answered  by  Dr.  A.  S.  Alexander 
Feeding  and  Caring  for  a  Puppy 
Can  you  tell  me  how  to  feed  12-week 
old  Shepherd  pups?  If  they  cough  and 
sometimes  throw  up  a  little  is  it  a  sure 
sign  of  worms?  What  is  the  best  thing 
to  give  for  worms? 
Maine.  f.  h.  e. 
One  of  the  commonest  errors  in  the 
feeding  and  care  of  dogs  is  that  meat  is 
a  cause  of  distemper  and  fits  and  there¬ 
fore  to  he  considered  unfit  and  dangerous 
food  for  puppies,  if  not  for  the  adult 
animal.  That  is  a  mistake,  for  the  dog 
is  a  flesh-eating  animal  and  thrives  best 
when  allowed  that  food  in  moderation. 
While  the  puppy  is  quite  young,  or  under 
four  months,  milk  should  form  an  im¬ 
portant  part  of  its  ration,  but  variety  of 
food  is  advisable  and  beneficial.  Scraps 
from  the  table  furnish  most  of  the  meat 
necessary,  but  one  may  also  buy  sound 
dog  meat  from  the  butcher.  Scraps  of 
fresh  meat  and  large  raw  beef  bones 
should  be  chosen.  These  may  be  boiled 
and  the  cooked  meat  given,  while  the  soup 
is  poured  upon  stale  bread,  after  addition 
of  vegetables.  Even  puppies  but  10  weeks 
old  may  have  some  meat  and  an  occa¬ 
sional  feed  of  raw  meat  (beef  or  mutton) 
will  prove  beneficial  to  them.  Mr.  A.  F. 
Ilochwalt,  the  noted  authority  on  dogs, 
says  that  he  has  fed  whole  litters  of  pup¬ 
pies  raw  meat  in  small  quantities  when 
as  young  as  eight  or  nine  weeks  and  the 
results  were  always  good.  They  will 
thrive  on  it  better  than  on  any  other  food, 
but  raw  meat  should  only  be  fed  two  or 
three  times  a  week,  in  small  quantities 
and  finely  chopped  or  shredded.  Feed  the 
cooked  meat  at  least  once  a  day  and  for 
the  other  meals  use  the  soup  poured  upon 
stale  bread  or  prepared  breakfast  foods. 
Also  give  puppies  milk  once  a  day  when 
under  four  months  and  even  daily  until 
one  year  old.  It  may  be  given  as  the 
morning  meal,  poured  upon  stale  bread. 
Give  that  amount  each  time  which  will 
be  cleaned  up  with  relish  and  offer  new. 
fresh  food  at  each  meal.  Never  leave 
what  the  dog  rejects  at  a  meal.  He  will 
do  best  when  given  fresh  food  at  each 
meal.  Feed  puppies  five  times  a  day 
until  10  weeks  old;  then  less  often.  Adult 
dogs  are  fed  a  full  meal  in  the  evening 
and  a  light  one  in  the  morning.  Many 
breeders  feed  but  one  meal  daily,  in  the 
evening.  Do  not  feed  pork,  chicken,  po¬ 
tatoes,  cornmeal,  or  liver  other  than  that 
necessary  when  a  dog  is  constipated. 
Vomiting  is  a  sign  of  indigestion  and 
worms  are  a  common  cause.  For  vomit¬ 
ing  subnitrate  of  bismuth  in  10  to  30 
grain  doses,  according  to  the  age  and  size 
of  the  dog.  may  be  given  with  good  effeet 
at  intervals  of  three,  four  or  six  hours, 
according  to  severity  of  attack.  Give  it 
in  a  little  milk  or  water.  When  hook 
worms  trouble  a  puppy,  withhold  feed 
and  give  one  drop  of  carbon  tetrachlorid 
for  each  pound  of  body  weight  and  give 
a  grown  dog  two  drops  per  pound.  It  is 
given  in  gelatin  capsules,  preferable  the 
soft  closed  capsules.  If  other  capsules 
are  used  great  care  must  be  taken  not  to 
break  them  or  let  the  caps  come  off  at 
time  of  administration,  as  the  drug  is 
volatile  and  may  cause  suffocation  if  in¬ 
haled.  For  round  worms,  which  are  more 
common,  the  following  will  he  found  a 
good  formula  :  Mix  together  one-half  an 
ounce  each  of  fluid  extracts  of  pink  root 
and  senna  and  sirup  of  licorice  and  simple 
sirup.  Of  this  give  two  to  four  teaspoons 
every  other  morning  until  three  doses 
have  been  given.
