it misdemeanor punishable by fine

dogs to run at large in the country.

suitable for sheep raising, was not well
adapted to cattle, for the reason that

lived On young game during tie spring
and summer and preyed on the sheep
whenever they were not watched, and
especially in the winter The farmers
of Virginia grew tired of having their
waste lands idle and finally induced
the legislature to pass the dog law.
Tie law when adopted by county,
makes it misdemeanor for the owner
of dog to allow that dog off his
prope- unless he is with the dog.
In case OF incorporated villages and
towns it permits the licensing of dogs,
but ,uakes it a misdemeanor for them
to roam outside of the incorporated
limits.
The indirect effect of the law is to
allow any farmer to s,oot lone dog
on his property.
How vastly would South Carolina in
crease in wealth if her mills were
sodded with lespedeza, Bermuda,
vetches, clovers and other grazing
crops, and sheep and goats permitted
to roam in safety.-Columbia Record.
Such a law in South Carolina might
be a good thing if it had the proviso
that any one might shoot the dog if
he found it roaming on his land. But
We ave a lot of laws now that are
observed more in the breach than the
observance. For instance, here in
Newberry there is law, or an ordi-
nance, 63at no dog shall be permitted
on the streets without a muEzle, but
all you have to do is to walk out on
the streets any day and you will find
dogs loafng around and no one thinks
of putting a muzzle on any of them
or arresting them. In fact, the en-
forcement of such a law would mean
the determination of the dog.
1t is true that there is lot OF
waste land all over South Carolina that
could be put to sheep raising and to
Cattle raising, and this latter could be
done without the enforcement of the
dog law that they have in Virginia and
our climate would suit the raising OF
cattle.
We do not believe that the dog law
suggested by the Record would avail
much in South Carolina for the reason
that it could not be enforced.
