DOGS DETECT FOOD HoARpERs
German Police Unable % Cone With
the Situation Until CANNES
Were Pressed Into Service,

The prospects of famine in Germany
are so serious that food boarding Is
growing among the wealthy to an ex-
tent that has given the government no
end Of trouble. The German police
have exhausted every means of detect.
Ing the hoarders except one, and that
Is to use highly trained police dogs on
their trail.
This is now being done, and the
dogs are proving themselves invalu-
able in running down violators of the
food laws. Near Berlin, according to
correspondent. the dogs recently 10.
Gated man who had been pilfering
from vegetable patches Of truck gar
deners. The dogs led the police to
the house where the stolen vegetables
were hidden.
In Munich a constable attempted to
seize man caught with 50 pounds of
meat brought from an illegal slaugh-
ter house. The man escaped, leaving
the burden behind, but was tracked
to a hay loft by police dogs. When
the officer returned to the spot where
the meat had been left he found the
meat gone. The police dogs were
again called upon and they located the
meat in house where it had been
hidden by a woman.

Chance to Increase Poultry.

North Dakota has $4,000 farms
with no poultry, 61.500 farms in
the state average so chickens each.
Turkeys are raised on only one
fifth of the farms and average
four to the farm. Ducks average
four ON one-seventh of the farms.
And geese are raised on one-ninth
of the farms and average four, ac-
cording to the 1910 census.
There would seem to be an op.
portunity for increasing the poul-
try raising in the state and in this
way increase the meat supply.
Poultry hunt most of their own
food during the summer if given
free range; the more insects and
grasshoppers there are the better
the poultry live. One farmer where
the grasshoppers We're bad reports
that his turkeys saved a second
crop of alfalfa for seed $500
worth per acre) beyond the range
of the turkeys the hoppers got the
alfalfa. Some poultry should be
produced OH every farm and Oil
most farms the number kept could
be doubled in the spring. The
feed supply will be short in places.
But the Young poultr v will not
need much feed before they can
begin to gather a good deal of
their own food. Increase the poul-
try is a good way to increase the
meat supply.-Agr. Ext. Dept. y.
