Let's look at what causes skin
ailments among our pets. Worms,
excessive exposure to heat and
improper feeding are three of the
most common causes. Many ami
mails are bothered all year round
with skin diseases but the MAORI.
ty are afflicted only during the
hot summer months. There is lit
tie chance that a human can con.
tract any skin infection from a
dog affected with mango of any
of the three types.
The first approach to a cure is
to free the animal of any worms,
cut down on his food and see that
he has plenty of fresh water avail
able at all times. Before applying
any skin medicine, wash the af-
fected areas with warm water and
glycerine.
Personally, 1 have found that
sulphur mixed with crude oil is
an effective remedy. The dog will
have to be tied up outdoors for
d few days after this treatment
but it will in most cases bring
results. Other good combinations
it, apply are zinc oxide and vase
line or sulphur and lard.
Well-meaning friends may ad-
wise a sulphur dip. This is excel
lent, but great care must be TAX
en- afterward. Sulphur tends to
open the pores and, unless it is
a very warm day with little wind,
your dog may catch a bad cold
that may prove fatal. Sometimes
weeks or even months are re-
quired to clear up stubborn cases
of mango but dogs gratitude is
worth the time and effort.

THIS FOURTH OF JULY

The war IN Europe is over, but
it will not make any great diff
ference in the wartime restrictions
on fireworks available this year.
A few may be had but the ma
jority will come from left-overs c.
pre-war days. The Fourth of July
is one day that all dogs should
be kept tied up at home or under
close surveillance if at large.
Not only will the loud explosion
noises of firecracke f ri 6 h t n
young pups but the effect of this
experience may leave its mark on
the animal for a long time. Then
some youngster might think it fun
to throw a firecracker near the
dog, or the dog might retrieve it
and have it explode in his mouth.
Be on the safe side and keep your
cog at home this Fourth OF July.
AVERAGE DOGS AGE is A IL
YEARS
A recent survey conducted by
the Gaines Dog Research Center
reveals two interesting facts:
Male dogs out-number females
almost three to one in American
homes 63G of the dogs in the
homes canvassed were male dogs.
The average age of all the dogs
in the homes covered by the sur
vey was "A years.
SKIN TROUBLES
About this time of year many
requests come to me for informa-
ton on how to cure dog of
mango. Many minor skin ailments
are classified as mango, when in
reality they are only skin erup-
lions that are not serious. It is
advisable, however, to take your
pet to a veterinarian if you no.
tice any skin disorder, as it is
oftez the symptom of more Sc
rious trouble.

THE STOLEN PUPPY

Larry A b b o t t of Cincinnati,
Ohio, decided to get puppy for
his 7-year-old son, Frank. Two
weeks ago father and son drove
four miles from their suburban
home to a farm and purchased
a six-weeks-old Collie. They took
the pup home and placed it in
kennel they had built. Three days
Later they were surprised to find
that someone had stolen their
dog. The small kennel house had
not been broken into but there was
a hole under the kennel yard from
the outside. The police were mott
fled but not trace was found OF
the pup for two days. Then Alb
bolt received telephone call.
It was from the man from
whom they had purchased the
pup. The missing pup was back
at his farm. It had arrived there
with its mother. The mother Col
lie was the one that had stolen
the pup. The pup the Abbotts had
purchased was the last of her lit
ter to be sold Evidently the moth
err dog hadn't like to have this
pup taken from her. Somehow she
had travelled the four miles and
located her offspring. To her 1t
was only natural to dig under the
wire and lead the pup back to
their original home.
Abbott decided that mother and
son shouldn't be separated after
this episode SO he also purchased
the mother dog and now both are
living in the kennel in the Alb
bolts hack ward

HAROLD PREECE TELLS HOW
TO DO BUSINESS WITH
LATIN-AMERICAN COUNTRIES

the contacts in Latin America.
Negro business men in this coun-
try might do well also to get ac-
quainted with the commercial at
tacheS of the different Latin Ameri-
can embassies in Washington. They
ought to get to know the different
Latin American consuls stationed
in their cities.
All of these are things that we
can do to help ourselves and to
help our businesses. But here are
a few things that the United States
government can do to encourage
Negro business, as, in the past, it
has encouraged white business.
1t can see that a fair share of
all the surplus war property, in
Guiding government-owned ma
chimes and factories, is made avail
able to Negro business men on
long-term payment plans, once that
Hitler is licked. If we have the ma
chimes and the factories, we can
produce what our good neighbors
of Latin America will buy.
1t can make special provision for
Negro business men in any gov
eminent agency set up to protect
small business in general-not as
a matter of charity but in simple
recognition of the fact that Negro
business has less reserves and
smaller patronage than any other
section of small business men.
1t can put a qualified Negro
familiar with Latin American cul-
tural and business practices in the
State Department to work with Ne
gro business men interested in deal
ing with the people of the 20 other
Latin American republics.
This is the program that have
in mind for the expansion of Ne
gro business in Latin America.
Many of you, 1 know, have ideas
that are as good or better. I'd like
to hear them so that I can publish
them in this column. Drop me line

ing features of the evening was

of J. J. Armstrong, who played sew
eral piano selections. Musical selec-

Nelson's children.
The church was decorated and
