Mad Dog Scare Causes Excitement In
Tenleytown.
A mad dog created CONSERVATION in Ten
leytown last night by rushing through the
place snarling. biting at everything saw
agely, horses included, in the meantime
foaming and frothing. 1t was a big bull,
formidable in appearance. 1t attacked an
other dog near Walkers gate, and bit and
fought 1t nearly to death. Officer Pearce
coming along killed the attacked animal
and made for the attacker. Three balls
were fired into the mad brute. They ap-
parently made but a temporary impression,
causing the dog to fall each time, but
securing an immediate recovery of his feet.
The savage animal during this meeting
with bullets, was the whole time attempt
ing to jump upon and bite the officers
horse. The latter was kept keenly alive to
the situation, and jumped and pranced
about with human intelligence in his efforts
to keep clear of HARM The officer emptied
nine balls into the dog, two from a bor-
roWed revolver, and finally had to resort to
shotgun, before death came to relieve
both the afflicted animal and terrified COM
munity. During the officers struggle chill
dren were hauled into houses and doors
and windows closed. Tenleytown was in
perfect fever of fear. AS far as is known
no person was bitten, but several horses
and dogs were. Whether the horses will
become seriously affected or not cannot be

Swine In tho Southwest.


The growth of the swine industry in
regions where alfalfa is successful il
remarkable. In numerous of the VAL
leys of New Mexico swine husbandry
is becoming a leading industry. being
wholly sustained by alfalfa. A corre-
spondent who has been visiting there
writes us that the hog farming is now
looked upon as the best paying indus-
try. Many ranchers raise swine exc
clusively, and turn their hogs from the
alfalfa pastures directly on the market
without feeding mouthful. of grain.
He says, however, that the more ar1-
proved plan is to give the hogs the
range of the small grain fields for a
few weeks after harvest before mar
keting them, as the barley and other
grain they are enabled to CLEAN hardens
up the flesh and improves their quail
ity considerably. The fruit-raisers
are said to look with longing eyes on
their neigh bors, the pig raisers. Our
correspondent says that much of the

were paying when he wrote 81. 10 per

in raising hogs is the climate which
permits of Throwing at any season of
