DogChah
BY c. T.. HARRISON

1t would be just about as bad
for novice TO attempt to treat
a serious injury to his dog as for
a father to attempt to take the
place of a surgeon when his child
is injured. Common sense should
tell any one that expert atten-
ton is needed.
If the evidence shows that an
accident is only a slight one,
homely remedies and personal
treatment may be just as good
as those which could be given
by a schooled veterinarian, but
this situation would apply only
when the home remedies are ap-
piled by one who has had ample
experience with dogs.
Dogs are more patient in their
suffering than are people. They
bear pain and endure treatment
with a fortitude well worthy of
emulation. When a dog knows
that his master or even a stranger
is ministering to his sufferings,
he will assist in every possible
way.
However, pain is pain. so in
treating a wound or injury of

any kind, it is usually desirable
to muzzle the dog before adding
to his suffering by efforts to re-
ieve him. This is a particular
case where an ounce of preven-
ton is worth all that is claimed
for it.
Among minor injuries are
scratches or abrasions of the skin.
These should be cleansed as
speedily as possible with rubbing
alcohol and the proper medical
application administered. Only
the most skillful veterinarian
practicing in surgery on small
animals should be called if there
lis the slightest suspicion of a
broken bone or dislocation.
He should be called at once.
Bones and muscles, nerves and
arteries, as well as the smaller
blood vessels. may all be involved
in breaks and dislocations, SO
none but the most experienced
and skillful animal surgeon is
competent to treat the injury.

that dirty water from the Manistee

Hard to Check

With $4,000 small game hunt
ers in the field, it is physically
impossible for officers TO appre-
bend a fair percentage of the
hunters to see whether they are
using their seals correctly.
Farmers and their children are
not required by law to possess a
license when hunting on their own
land. All birds in their possession
on their own lands would be legal
without seals attached. Seals are
not foolproof. Our investigation
show the seal in present use for
the deer is best. but it is not
perfect.
The request for seals is not con-
fined to the pheasant hunters.

new bills were introduced: To

The general fish bill includes the
following items favored by the
MUCC:
Prevent snag hooks on
trout streams and gaff hooks.
2-License-control of wiggler

Gaines, the bait business has
grown to alarming proportions
and must be controlled to pro-
tect the natural supply.
SaUe Muskies
3-Add catfish to game list,
and control of trout lakes.
4-Prohibit spearing of mus
kies in Lake st. Clair and De-
troit and st. Clair Rivers.

Is or not more than 10 pounds
and one fish.
9-Lake trout daily limit TO
not more than 25 pounds and
one fish.
I0-Change daily limit on bass

According TO Gaines the entire
bill is satisfactory except that
portion extending the clio s d
spawning protection season on lake
trout only until November 20. The
season should be closed from Oc-
tober 10 to November 30. The
MUCC have sponsored a bill pro-

Rainbow Trout
A Stream Fish
B e ar Creek Sore en-
Will Trap Spawners
Upstream in Season
BY ARVID JOUPI

KALEVA, March 22.-Can rain
bow trout, commonly known as
steelhead, survive in Bear Creek
and become game fish?
That is question which is at
tracing considerable comment
from Manistee County sportsmen
because Of the new fish screen on
Bear Creek, once one OF Michi-
CANS leading trout streams. The
barrier, constructed under aus
pieces of the Manistee County
Spirit of the Woods Conservation
Club is designed to trap spawning
rainbow upstream through the
fishing season.
Emil Rengo. Kaleva, chairman
OF the construction committee and
instigator of the idea, is enthu-
siastic of the possibilities:
'We'Ii have so many rainbow
of more than nine pounds up
Rear Creek next Summer they
will break plenty of tackle" he
declares.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-03-23
List Purposes

Purpose of the project is TO lock
the steelhead upstream and create
a new game fish for stream fish
erTnen. Redhorse suckers, which
travel upstream for the spawning
season two weeks after the steel
head, viii be locked downstream,
preventing their eating rainbow
spawn.
A new source of food for ma
tives will be created if conserva-
ton department officials allow dip
netting suckers below the screen.
and ii is made possible for Bear
Creek TO be artificially stocked
with legal-sized rainbows. Fish
experts had not previously classed
the stream as suitable for stock
ing. and $1,000 have already been
planted. Rengo said.
Ever since about IS years
ago, when steelhead, which are
really Iand-locked salmon origi-
nally from the West, have used
Rear Creek and Its subsidiary
streams for spawning. brook and
speckled trout have diminished
In numbers" the chairman said.
