BY PETER BOGGS

Charles Walker, Of DeS MONIES,
Iowa, thought he owned a smart
dog, but it wasn't until just the
other day he realized just h o w
smart his pet really was. Walk
err had taught his dog, a Collie, to
carry coin to a nearby bakery to
buy himself a biscuit. One day
having no small change he wrote
an order on a piece of paper and
gave it to the animal, telling him
to take it to the baker, for his
usual biscuit. AS this was a more
convenient procedure, Walker con
tinued the practice.
Last month when the baker 5
bill came in Walker was aghast
at the number of biscuits he was
supposed to have ordered for his
dog. The next morning he called
on the baker to dispute the amount
of the bill. While in the shop the
Collie came through the fr o n t
doorway with a piece of blank pa
per in his mouth. It was then re-
vealed that whenever the dog had
wanted a biscuit, he had picked UP
a piece of paper and taken it to
the bakery. After the first two or
three written orders, the baker had
not bothered to look at the paper
which the dog brought in.

MOSQUITOES PREFER
YOUR DOG

Any mosquitoes around your
home these nights? If so your
dog is having more trouble with
these insects than you are. Exten-
sive tests have shown that dogs are
bothered more by mosquitoes than
are humans. These same tests have
proved that if given choice, these
insects prefer biting a dog rather
than a human. During these sum-
mer nights, if your dog is near
you and there are mosquitoes about
the chances are he is drawing many
Of these annoying insects away
from you.

YOUR DO GAND GARDENS
L have been bombarded by a
mass of worried letters asking me
how to keep dogs from destroying
victory gardens and am beginning
to wonder how many thousands OF
gardens are going to be wrecked
by dogs this season. Far too many,
and much neighborhood strife is
due to follow the destruction.
Most of this could be avoided by
the use of simple common sense.
A sprinkle of paprika-if red pep
per seems to you too strong-will
keep the average dog from digging
into new-turned earth. So will GER
tain liquids which your dogs hate
and which won't hurt the plants.
Better still, fairly high fence o
almost invisible thin chicken wire
around the beds and borders will
keep dogs out. The price is very
slight and the wire is not visible
except from very short distance.
There is plenty of room in the
world for both dogs and victory
gardens.

DOGS NOT COLOR BLIND

I have read many scientific
treatises which seek to prove that
dogs are color blind; in other words
that all the world seems to dog
as colorless as an ordinary photo
graph seems to you and. me, that
he see only ack and white and
gray. 1 have never believed this,
though my disbelief doesn't prove
it untrue.
Lately, however, experiments
have been made by experts which
tend to prove I am right and that
dogs have as clear a sense OF the
various colors as We have.
A few years ago I saw a dog
whose owner has taught him to
distinguish one color from another.
The dog is shown a red flag and
is told to select a rag of the same
color from heap of varicolored
rags before him. Always he drags
red rag from the heap, a rag
of the same shade as the flag which
has been shown to him. He does
the same no matter what the color
or the shade of the flag and he
never makes mistake.

TO KEEP FLIES OFF DOG

Next to fleas I think flies that
bite a dogs ears are perhaps the
most annoying thing dogs have to
put up with in warm weather. I'm
less you observe your dog closely
you may be unaware that these
pests are bothering him. If his ears
are covered with little sore spots
then the chances are he has been
bitten by flies.
Often in the past I have had
such troubles with my own dogs.
But, by applying a ten per cent
ointment of oil of cade, oil of tar,
or creoline, made up with base
of lanolin to my dogs ears I have
been able to keep them absolute
ly free of fly bites. Your druggist
I am sure can make up such an
ointment for you if you need it
for your dog.
