The Royal Agricultural Society, at its recent meeting, passed a remit excluding Alsatian dogs from Royal Shows- in future. A delegate said that New Zealand would do well not to encourage the breeding of these dogs, for even half-breeds were not reliable. He had a halfbred Alsatian sheep dog pup which was very docile, and he had tried to bring it up as a sheep dog. As it got older it developed the habit of jumping into the flock and knocking the sheep down, and the next thing it started mauling them. The only remedy was to take a gun and shoot it. Another ' delegate mentioned an instance of an Alsatian dog which crushed the heads of 40 sheep with one bite each.
“ HITTING ON ALL SIX.” Oh boy ! It is great to be fit. , Great to take the steep grades on top. Great to have power and to spare for a spurt. Nerves are everything. Feed them. They need phosphorus. Marshall’s Fospherdne is a concentrated nerve food phosphorus in form for instant assimilation. No more nervousness, irritability, sleeplessness. One hundred doses of “ Marshall’s ” 2/6. Chemists and stores.
