Georgia Field Trials. 
Waynesboro, Ga.—Here is a club that runs 
dogs for the love of the sport, a club com¬ 
posed of gentlemen from Georgia, free front 
professional jealousy and dog man bickerings, 
with no internal petty strife, where the dogs 
that win are beyond question the best in the 
judgment of the judges, consequently the trials 
run here Dec. 4, 5 and 6 brought out an en¬ 
thusiastic crowd and some of the best dogs of 
the year. The judges were C. D. Jordan, Major 
R. J. Davant and J. L. Halloway. The winner 
of the derby was a classy young pointer, John 
Proctor, owned by A. L. Curtis, Belton,_ lex. 
In the Georgia all-age, with a field of sixteen 
starters, Udo Fleischmann’s Happy Day proved 
to be as fine as anything seen this year. He is 
a stylish setter, just such a dog as a fastidious 
sportsman would want to hunt over, and have 
at home to chum with. He was handled 
cleverly by C. H. Babcock, of Pinehurst. 
Members’ all-age went to Ponce de Leon, 
after consistent work, fast and wide. this 
setter is owned by W. S. Elkins. 
Only two entries turned up in the members’ 
derby, both being setters. Brunswick Countess, 
owned and handled by S. K. Brown, was^ far 
and away the better dog and was awarded first. 
The following officers were elected for the 
ensuing year: Major Davant, President; C. D. 
Jordan, Vice-President; Dr. R. L. Miller, Sec¬ 
retary; Directors—F. S. Belcher, W. S. Elkins, 
S. K. Brown, J. H. Walters, R. L. Miller. 
Vermifuge. 
Nine-tenths of dog ailments are superin¬ 
duced by worms, and they manifest themselves 
in various ways. Often a dog’s coat falls out, 
his hide gets sore and it looks much like a case 
of eczema, when it’s simply a bad case of 
worms. Sometimes your dog mopes, his eyes 
get lustreless, and though his appetite is raven¬ 
ous, he stays poor and haggard. Generally a 
dose of worm medicine will put him back on 
his feet. Every pup after it is six weeks old 
should have a dose of vermifuge once a month, 
and every grown dog should be treated for 
worms three or four times a year. 
Don't fool with home mixed vermifuges. Buy 
any of those advertised in our kennel depart¬ 
ment. They are inexpensive and scientifically 
prepared. 
It is safe to say that every dog has worms 
to some degree,'so that a dose of vermifuge 
cannot do the dog any harm. 
Book on Coon Hunting. 
J. E. Williams, of Southern Farm ’Coon 
Hound Kennels, Selmer, Tenn., has just issued 
a comprehensive little book on night hunting. 
It tells how, when and where to hunt, what 
dogs to use and how to train and handle them. 
The suggestions on selecting a puppy, what 
age to buy a dog, handling a new dog in 
strange country and advice on bagging the wary 
little ’coon are worth while to any sportsman. 
Curing Mange. 
The average dog owner has a dread of mange 
in his kennels, when, as a matter of fact, it is 
dangerous only in the imagination of the 
owner, and is, in most cases, easily cured. 
The most efficacious remedy is made thus: 
six pounds sulphur, five pounds concentrated 
lye, stir up thoroughly in three gallons boiling 
water and allow to stand half an hour. Pour 
this solution into a barrel or tub and mix with 
fifty gallons of water. Immerse the dog in 
the mixture, being careful not to get it into 
his eyes, for, while not particularly dangerous, 
it is painful. Better tie the dog up until he 
dries, as he will otherwise seek the dustiest part 
of the street and roll himself into a mud pie to 
ease the tickling of the lye. Repeat the dipping 
operation every two days the first week, every 
three days the second week, and then once a 
week until a cure is effected. Where the hair 
is slow in growing, rub with vaseline or kero¬ 
sene. 
Don’t throw away the solution after dipping 
the dog. It may be used repeatedly. 
Southern Ohio Field Trial Association. 
At a meeting of sportsmen interested in field 
trials, held the evening of Dec. 12, a permanent 
organization was formed under the name of the 
Southern Ohio Field Trial Association, with 
George R. Harris, of Norwood, President, and 
C. C. Acton, of Hartwell, Secretary. The meet¬ 
ing was well attended, among those present 
being: D. Ferris, Mr. Zimmerman, Mr. Sherman, 
G. R. Harris. C. C. Acton, Dr. P. K. Phillips, 
George Walker, Geo. Morlidge, J. C. Oliver, Dr. 
F. M. Oxley, F. E. Wood and Arthur Wood. 
There was much enthusiasm manifested, and it 
was decided to hold the first trials near Burling¬ 
ton, Ohio, on Dec. 18. George Walker, of Fort 
Thomas, was chosen as judge. At a future meet¬ 
ing the organization will be perfected and plans 
made for the coming season. It is hoped to 
arrange a circuit with the Hoosier and Central 
States Field Trial Associations and the Dayton 
Pointer Club.
