 In connection with the destruction by dogs Of 27 sheep and lambs at the farm of County Commissioner E. H. Corttis, ] in the town of Thompson, it may be stated that member of the board of se- 1 lectmen Of that town and representa- l tive of the bureau of domestic animals, | Special Deputy Howard E. Elliott, nave l been working on the case for sometime ! and have gathered information that is expected eventually to lead to action | that will result in the town or Dudley, where one of the raiding dogs w&s 'o- l cated, being called upon to pay for The | damage done by he-dog.
 In three years the state of Connecticut 1 has caused 10000 dogs to ba killed and
 over 1900 arrests have been made ard many convicted of violations of the dog | laws. This shows that the atata IS do- ] ing excellent work in handling he dog 1 situation.
 ! The criticism heard in this territory is l that the dog laws should be made more stringent; that 8 license should, under l legislation that might be enacted be de- | nied to any person who could not show 1 good cause for keeping a dog; that get ting license for dog should be made 1 as difficult as getting a permit to carry
 a concealed weapon
 Such stringent laws, it is held, would 1 serve to eliminate thousands of useless 1 dogs now harbored about the state and would make the lot of the sheep breed | CT much more comfortable than is now possible with scores of dogs, duly lf- censed, running at large.
