Kansas Dog Branded Loafer.
+. D. Coburn, secretary Of the Kan
sas Board of Agriculture, is very much
opposed to the dog in Kansas, as il
prevents the growing OF sheep. q
farmer in Norton county asked Mr.
Coburn for advice about starting
flock and this is part Of Mr. Coburn's
/ reply:
considering the sheep-raising in
yestment, ! may say that the people
OF your county appear, from the re
turns by the officials, to be far more
partial to developing the dog industry
4 than sheep
"For example, they report to this
Office that in 1905 the county was cul
tiyating 1709 dogs and 152 sheep. ant
1906 increased the dogs to 1,774 anc
reduced the sheep to 142.
"The average canine (your Bob ant

excepted, of course) IS worthless

to the United States Senate.

"If one will "a holly berries when

The juice Of the holly berry has been
used in my family for years with
greatest success When my mother
was living she used to set lot oe
holly berries every winter and stew
them she would take the fluid and
put it up in Jars. When one Of us
