There is much evidence about that a dog polns.ner is at work in Nyssa and all thcee having pets are ad'-'s- ed to keep them In their own yards as this particular kind of poison is vlsctous and causes the animals ex- crutlating agonies before death fin ally ocmes to relieve them. How any one who calls himself a human being much less a Christ ian person can manifest such fiend ishness to dumb animals is beyond the comprehension of the average mind. But such fiends do exist and each one having pets will have #■> do what they can towards protect ing them. By keeping them within their own yards and looking care fully over the premises to be sure that there is no strange ford about. Dr. Bowman, veterinanrian re cently moved from Kansas to Nys sa, advises all those whose pets may be affected to give them a dose of sweet milk cr some sort of grease containing mustard and cause them to vomit and then call an experienc ed veterinarian. If given treatment in time there is a chance of saving the animal. There are laws to deal wiih such inhumane offenders if they can be apprehnded and each person should do all th at he or she can towards bringing them to justice. The penalty in Oregon for dog poisoning is considered a felony and according to the Oregon Code of 1930 carries a penatly of from six months to three years in the state penitentiary, or from three months to one year in a county Jail or a fine from fifty to one thousands dollars. If a neighbor's dog or animal of- Phone Journal. your news items to the fends you, do net make the animal suffer in this cruel fashion for something that is really not its fault but speak to its owner or take the proper course through the law to have it declared a nuisance and let it be put to deats painlessly.
