Dogs.

In 1880 there were 81, $50
sheep in Tennessee. Since 1870
there has beena ste .dy decline
in lumber, in spite of the in
crease in population, for there
we're 672,7S9 in 1890, $50, 900 IN
1890, and only SO7, S04 in 1000.
The census, which gives these
figures, does not make recon-
ing of dogs in the. State. This
is to be regretted, as it is be,icv-
ca that the decline in the nnm Der
of sheep might be shown to have
been paralleled in the increase in
the mum Der of dogs, an increase
of one dog meaning a decrease
twenty sheep in some instances.
For many years Col. J. B. kille-

anti-cur man. He has inveighe d
against the freedom of worthless
dogs, and now that the legislature
has passed d dog low, he does
not rest from his labors, but is
encouraging his fcllow-citizens
in every way to make the law as
effective as possible. Discuss.

to the fact that the State does
now grow wool enough to clothe
its population, and there is only
one sheep to every for persons
while there should be at least
four sheep to every one person

the good and prosperity Of the

to modify it, except for it's better.
