Norwegian Elkhound IL
Handsome, Trustworthy

The Norwegian Elkhound IL fire.
Quently referred to as the "un-
spoiled dog" meaning that the
breed, which originated in Norway
in the Nineteenth century, is free
of the attempting to develop show
dog. Today the Norwegian ELK
hound is the same kind Of a dog
in appearance, size and DISPOSE
ton as were the first of its kind
when the Norwegians first used 1t
for big game hunting, says an au-
thority in the Detroit News.
Representatives of the breed are
not at all numerous in this coun-
try. Occasionally they are seen in
shows or around some Of the larg-
er estates of the East. They are
handsome dogs, not unlike the Es-
kimo in form, standing about "a
inches high at the shoulder and
weighing around so pounds. The
coat is heavy and weather-resist-
ing, Of various shades Of gray, with
black tips to the long outer coat.
The tail is set high and carried
curled over the back.
This Elkhound is a trustworthy
animal but very reserved In max.
ing new acquaintances. They are
intelligent with great character
and abundance, Of energy as BELTS
the ordinary hunting breeds. They
make excellent companions and
watch dogs.

Peony planting time is here
again. 1t seems that it was only a
few weeks ago, that we were adj
miring the always snowy blooms Of
this hardy and dependable plant.
And was there ever better weather
than we are having now for this
work. Peony roots planted this
fall, If they are Of generous size,
that is, divisions, ought to root
nicely and produce blooms next
season. Not so many, but some to
be sure.
Peony roots are generally divid-
ed with three to five eyes. Large
clumps or old plants transplanted
often do not do so well. The plants
do best in rich soil, that is well
drained, yet retentive of moisture.
If the soil is thin or light, one
should dig a generous hole, mix
some well decayed vegetable matter
to furnish plenty Of humus, al
though one should be careful that
the materials do not come in i'm
mediate contact with the roots, 1t
is notnecess ary to use great deal
Then next season, top-dress with
some fertilizer.
When planting, be careful not
to have the eyes covered notsmuch
over two inches. When eyes are set
too deeply, 1t Is often the cause for
peonies not doing well, or not
blooming at all. When freezing
weather sets In, cover with some
mulching Of some sort. II no ma

Saliva Of Anteaters Il
Used Instead of Teeth

The most interesting thing about
true South American anteater ID
its saliva. Next is its long and
very comical snOut which doesn't
at all seem to belong to sturdy,
heavy legs such as 1t has.
True anteaters live in South
America. The chief quality which
they all have In common Is their
toothlessness, notes writer in the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat. But
they seem to be none the worse for
their lack Of teeth, because they
have a very sticky, very practical
sort Of saliva and long, efficient
tongues.
When they are not in use, the
tongues Of ant bears, chief among
South American anteaters, are
tucked neatly into a roll in their
mouths. For the purpose their long
shouts and sticky tongues are ad-
mirably practical. So, for that mat
ter, are the stocky legs and stout
claws with which the ant hills are
torn open so that the long tongue
may worm itself into the heart Of
the ant colony.
Relatives Of the sloth, ant bears
are too lazy to fight unless neces-
sary, but when they are cornered
and annoyed they have an unpleas-
ant hug and the scratch of their
powerful claws is to be respected.
Ordinarily, the ant bear keeps his
claws doubled under his feet, but
when he fights he Yields them very
effectively.
