TROFESSOR Hachet Souplet. ~

idence to prove whether or not dogs

Professor Hachet-Souplet is con

nave the same kind of intelligence
as human beings. and that they can
reason.
He has devised instruments simi-
lar to those used on men in the
psychological Laboratories which
measure the intelligence Ot dogs
the reaction time of their various
faculties, their ability to count, and
so forth
While the Professor does not con

Mr.. Virglle PleChoyano, an eugi-
neer living at Bucharest the CAPT
tai Of Roumania. sent the following
statement.
Near me lived an Irish setter be
longing to a druggist in Academy
street. He spent his day in the
store, where he was petted by all
the customers At certain hours
in the day he went out for a walk
Four o'clock was the time for his
afternoon excursion At this hour
his admirers had formed the habit
of buying him one of those meat
cakes which we call placinta. and
were sold at the the corner of the
street
VERY soon the dog learned to
carry the coin in his mouth. give
II to the store-keeper himself and
receive his cake in exchange AZ
ter that the druggists customers
enjoyed giving him the coin and
waiting while he went to fetch his
cake. One day the cake seller
thought 1t would be a good idea to
pocket the coin and drive the poor
dog away without giving him his
cake The dog howled and protest
ed. but was finally driven away with
out getting what he had paid for.
The next day he stopped in front OF
the store within sight of the tray
on which the cakes were kept, and
placed his coin on the sidewalk in
sight Of the storekeeper. Then. in
dicating with his nose what he
wanted he kept his paw on the
coin until the cake had been deliv-
cred to him. His friends at the drug
store were in sight of the transac-
tiCn and would not have allowed
him to be cheated. He continued
this performance up to the day of
his lamented death"
A great many anecdotes indicate
that the dog has an accurate sense
Of time. Mr.. Morlet Director of the
French Society for the Protection OF
Animals, said: - was accustomed

Garonne, sent the record of a re-
markable dog named Yappit:
"Yappit is farmers dog. This
man was coming home from the
market one day where he had sold
number of cattle Consequently
he was carrying with him a large
sum of money. At a certain spot
just as night was falling the dog
stopped, began to howl and refused
to go on. The owner, who had
passed on, called him and whistled
repeatedly, but the dog refused to
move. The farmer went on his way.
When he had entered the house he
put his hand in his pocket and
found that he had lost his purse
along the road. Cruelty worried, he
took a lantern and started to go
over the road he had come, step by
step. When he had gone long
way, he heard the barking of his
dog in the blackness of the night.
He went to the spot and there he
found Yappit with the lost purse
under his paws, still sitting at the
place where the farmer had left
him. The dog had understood the
great Importance of the object
dropped.

telligent animal had understood the
situation and Intentionally failed to
recognize his master. The result
was a cordial reconciliation be-
tween two men who might have had
a very serious quarrel"
Mr.. Pierre Vitry, of Nancy, sent
the following record concerning a
dog named Drift, who accompanied

him in 8 journey through Algeria:
Some months later we were at
Khenchala in the mountains of
Aures, when a heavy snow storm
occurred. Drift, who was delighted
with this novelty, ran about in the
snow as if he were mad. UnfOr
tunately his long ears dragging
through the snow became frOst-bit-
ten and one of them developed an
abscess. To enable him to recover
he was kept in the house before the
fire. In front of the fire his dish
of milk was warming. Then we saw
remarkable thing. Drift allowed
his bad ear to fall in the hot milk
and with his head held on one side
enjoyed the relief from the infam-
nation. From time to time with his
paw he pushed the dish around so
that the side which had been most
heated by the fire would come near
the bad ear.
Drift had the habit of going out
and getting into fights with common
dogs and coming home in a miser-
able condition. One day | was go

DECALOGUE FOR
Tree PLANTERS

Washington, July 18.-The forest
service a devised a decalogue for
the use of farmers in the plains reg
ions. ?
These ten commandments are to be
displayed as part of the exhibit which
the forest service is preparing for an
exposition to be held during October
at Tulsa, Okla, in connection with the
eighth International dry farming con
greSs. Ire
The commandments for owners of
Wlndbreaks are as follows:
l. Place the windbreak at right
angles to the direction Of injurious
prevailing winds.
2. Devote from ~one-eighth to one-
NTH of the farm to timber. It's pro-
tective value more than pays for the
ground it occupies, to say nothing of
the timber YIELD .
3. Plant only Species suited to wind
break use, to the region and to the To-
calitya
4. Plant rapid for quick
results; but underplant with slower
growing species, which are usually
longer lived and more valuable.
8. Supplement a deciduous windbreak
with e%vergreens to afford protection
in winter.
6. Separate trees by spacing prop
err to the species used. The trees
should be close enough to, produce a
dense windbreak and to yield good
poles, but should not be so crowded
as to produce spindling growth.
Z. Make the windbreak thick from
the bottom up, especially on the side
toward the wind. This may be done
by using species which branch near the
ground, by planting outside rows of
low growing trees, by e~ncouraging
natural reproduction and by under
planting.
8. Cultivate the plantation thor
oughly while it is young.
8. Do not allow excessive grazing
where reproduction is desired.
10, Do not thin your woodlot too
heavily or take out the best trees for
minor uses. Remember that a timber
tract should be improved by use and
that each clearing should leave it in
