Police Dogs. 
Hammonton, Cal .-—Editor Forest and Stream: 
Apropos of the article inclosed, cut from the 
San Francisco Chronicle: 
“Berlin, Oct. 7.—The Prussian Government 
has recently called on the police authorities of 
towns which keep bloodhounds for tracking 
criminals to report as to their success in using 
them. The reports sent in indicate that the 
police authorities are well satisfied with the 
results.” 
It is odd that no American paper or maga¬ 
zine, as far as I know, ever had an article about 
those famous German police dogs. Thus 1 my¬ 
self was surprised two years ago, when I visited 
the Fatherland after fifteen years here in Cali¬ 
fornia, to see a dog such as I never saw before. 
His racy lines, somewhat like a whippet, if that 
be the right name for those small greyhounds, 
told me that he was a thoroughbred. A friend 
told me, "Oh, that is a Dobermann.” Further 
inquiry brought forth that that was the name 
of the man that bred that famous police dog— 
not a hound, as this and other American articles 
say. He is a terrier (Pinscher). 
I suggest to you that you get and print par¬ 
ticulars about him, for he deserves it. Small 
crimes, especially in the country, are almost 
sure to be found out by him. For instance: A 
friend of mine has a toy factory in the 
Thiiringen forest. One morning he found his 
office safe robbed. He telephoned for the 
officer that keeps the Dobermann for that dis¬ 
trict, locking his office and not saying anything. 
The same day officer and dog went into that 
office and then among his 400 employes. The 
dog ambled up to one; he was arrested and 
gave in right away. 
Few people in this part of the country dis- 
pu.e a police dog. It is useless, and they have 
never been known to err. People will even 
restore stolen goods when they hear that the 
Dobermann has been sent for. Get a few good 
half-tones and be the first to introduce this 
phenomenon to the United States.

At the annual meeting held last week at the 
Waldorf, New York city, Miss A. E. Barrow, 
of No. 113 E. 72d street, New York city, was 
elected secretary in place of Miss M. A. Rowan, 
resigned. The treasurer’s report showed a bal¬ 
ance of $4,000, after a loss of $1,962 on the last 
show. The dates for 1912 are June 4-5. 
Six members were elected: Mines. Thomas 
Hastings, W. B. Rankine, F. C. Mallory and 
the Misses Julia Berwind, Zella de Milhau and 
Marjorie Smylie. 
The members present were Misses Sands,

eron. Bullock and Jarbeau and Mines. Harvey, 
Dutcher. Fuller, Harriman, Pell, Cochrane,

Changing of Registered Names. 
The American Kennel Gazette says: A fre¬ 
quent cause of penalty for infraction of rules is 
the changing of registered dogs’ names. In 
some cases there is no excuse. But we have 
had several cases, where people have applied 
for a kennel name, and when granted they have 
thought they were able to give that name to all 
their dogs. This cannot be done in the case 
of dogs whose registration has already been 
published in the “Stud Book.”

Man and Dog 
SPRATT’S 
When you want to employ a man in your 
business you don’t go out and take any man 
who advertises-—you select a man properly 
equipped or intelligent enough to learn to 
fill the position for which you desire him. 
The same rules should be applied in buy¬ 
ing a dog. A bird dog seldom fills the bill 
as watch dog. You can’t make a child’s 
nurse of a Spitz dog. You don’t run rab¬ 
bits with a mastiff. You wouldn’t drive 
sheep with a toy Pommeranian, nor can you 
hunt quail with a fox-terrier. Yet, every 
one of these animals is invaluable for a 
specific purpose, and it’s our idea to tell you 
just what dog you need, provided you will 
tell for what you want to employ it. And, 
we will tell you where to buy it. Our 
kennel editor has had years of experience 
in breeding and selecting dogs, and his ser¬ 
vices are yours for the asking. 
There are hundreds of “Dog exchanges” 
that are exactly what the name implies— 
they take any kind of a dog and exchange 
it for your money. They don’t breed, they 
buy low and sell high. There are many un¬ 
reliable dog breeders. They promise things 
they can’t deliver. We want to keep 
Forest and Stream readers in the chan¬ 
nel with the honest, reliable breeder, and 
will gladly do so if you will ask our advice.
