DOGS LIKE THESE KNOW
SHEEP BETTER THAN A MAN.
Great Help to Shepherds In Taking
Care Of Floeks Not Necessary to
Have Animals OF Pure Breed.

Sheep do not like a dog that works
san close TO them as they feed or move,
says a correspondent Of Farm Prog
rcss. The uaiet dog that lets the sheep
alone except when they need atten-
ton is the animal that gets along best.
The mixed breed OF dogs appcars to
be fully as valuable as the thoroug Inbred
ccllies from England and Males When
crossed with bulldogs, fox terriers or
any Kind OF dog. in fact. they seem to
retain their sheep sense to marked
degree.
A dog thar is used in cattle driving
and handling will not. as a rule, do for
sheep. He is too rough in his meth
eds. and the tactics that he uses in
handling full grown cattle will injure
the sheep that he is trying to drive.
The crosses between the genuine
shepherd breeds of dog and the hounds,
terriers and bulldogs do not seem to
decrease the efficiency OF their Off
spring around the sheep pens or out in
the pastures.
When herding in summer the sheep
man may be miles away from any sign
of humanity save his own shack. his
belongings and his dog. In Montana,
Utah and Idaho there are hundreds OF
men whose only help in handling hun
dreds of sheep is trained dog, and if
he is not trained when they get him
they have to attend to his education
themselves.
They prefer one of the shepherd
strain of dogs, pup that has sheep
in his head" Generations of watching
over English and Scottish tiocks has
developed in these dogs sort of an
extra sense. They know sheep better
than any man can hope to know them.

MERCHANT TO HOLD TRADE
MUST BE LIVE AND ACTIVE.
Catalogue Houses Arc an Evil Which
Win Require Energy and Thought
sis 70 Combat.

Ihere are many reasons why the 10.
cal merchant should not sit down
placidly and expect to get back such
( patronage as the mail order people
have taken away from him The big.
gest concerns In the cities, which
thrive on trade from country districts
by mail orders, print gigantic cata-
lcgues and distribute them with a gen
erous hand.
These catalogues carry price lists
and pictures and descriptions of goods
which could not be printed in mail or
der Journals because OF the high cost
OF space and the lack OF enough space
to accommodate the printed matter.
This is an advertising age. The
! home merchant, II he holds his trade
or hopes to Increase it. must be awake
and active. Unless he takes measures
to keep his business and his BARGAINS
before the eyes Of the people dwelling
In his trade radius he cannot expect
prosperity.
The home newspaper is the one me-
dunn for disseminating publicity 10
the people. Men, women and children
in town and country have acquired the
habit Of reading advertising matter to
find what they want.
Il they do 10! discover in the home
neWsraper any hints as to bargains
which may be seen in town with the
naked eye they are inclined to take
their chances on purchasing by mail
from the catalogue hints
1t may be taken for granted that
most people prefer to spend their mon
ey in the home town il they can get
what they want at reasonable .ates-
They are always on the lookout for
bargains.
The catalogue people are very well
aware Of this fact. and they act ac-
eordingly. To combat mail trade the
local merchant must realize this fact
and get in line with the spirit of the
age, which means that he must adver-
tfse
