The Beagle Hound 
Probably the Most Popular Hunting Dog of the Day 
By ROY L. THAYER 
HE wing shooter desires a fast 
moving target; the scarcity of 
feathered game, especially grouse 
(partridge), has turned his attention 
to the once ignored cotton tail rabbit, 
and the other breeds of hare and rab- 
bits, that inhabit the United States. 
In some sections, the rabbit or hare 
is practically the only game left, from 
a hunting standpoint; and through 
compulsion, the sportsman has revived 
and extended one of the most fascinat- 
ing sports we have in this country, and 
its popularity has become nation-wide 
—that of trailing or “running” rabbits 
and hares with beagle hounds. 
Widespread notice is being given the 
beagle, which is placing him at the head 
of the list of sporting dogs as a class 
or as individuals for performance in 
the field, and he is developing rapidly, 
as a field trial and hunt- 
ing dog and his place 
upon the bench has been 
well established. 
The breeder’s slogan is 
“better shooting dogs” 
and the breeding of pedi- 
greed dogs is developing 
to a highly specialized 
profession, attracting to 
its ranks,. peovle from 
the highest walks of life; 
the interest in breeding, 
exhibiting and the wel- 
fare of blooded dogs is a 
matter of mutual con- 
cern. Science has edu- 
cated us in many truths 
pertaining to our animal friends and 
has taught us the value of balanced 
food, sanitary housing and treatment 
in sickness and disease. 
World-wide attention is now centered 
on efforts to obtain a better understand- 
ing and more thorough knowledge to 
determine the causes and find a remedy : 
(that is a sure and safe cure), for the 
most deadly, the most prolific, the most 
easily contracted, of the germ i 
and one of the most dreaded of all 
ins ailments — distemper — and the - 
“scourge of the kennel” will soon be 
history. 4 

Bre as is being carried on, in a 
great many instances, with such 
scientific and sanitary care that it $ 
might not be improper to say that if ; 
such mating and attention to physical — 

Orra, a beagle without a flaw. 
Tt will identify you.
