BEGIN traininjr puppies about the
yard when they are about two and
one half or three months old. For
the first two or three months it is best
for them to run some one they know
and be entered to one particular scent,
and kept to that only. After they learn
what is wanted of them, it does not mat-
ter how often the runner is changed.
The runner should first begin with them
by dragging something (an old shoe or
hat) carelessly about the yard. Thi'
pups will soon learn to run after it, and
the runner should try to get away from
them by hiding and by going through a
house or through crowds. Th'- should
be repeated several times. i he

pups should be taken to an sx eld
where a lew minutes before tn . . inner
had already gone. The runner should
tramp around a certain place, leavinir a
stake where the trainer can find his
starting place. The trainer will take
the puppies and say to them in a loud
tone: "Man's gone!" pointing to the
ground and repeating "Man's gone!"
when they will take his track. This
trail sh^iy^ be tw^o or three hundred
yards long, and the runner should climb
a tree or fence. When the pups come
up to him he should fight them from the

)o many masters,
jm to trail a man on

the runner ride up on a
rse and fight the pups

i ground. Have a rope
et long and tie the coat

or hat to one end. and afti-r fightinir
them from the horse until they are ma<l.
let him ride oil' dragKinj,' the coat or hat
on the vrnund. After the rider has
made about a mile circuit, turn one dog
loose and say "Man's };<ine!" After hi*
ha^ j;one a few hundred yards turn the
others loose and say the same. They
will then take the trail and soon come
up to the horse. Me careful not to let
the horse kick them. When they come
up, the runner must light them with
the old coat or hat and let them bay him
until the trainer comes up. when he
should put their chains on them aj. \
hold ihem while the runner on the horse
turns (luickly away and runs his horse
out of si:4ht, and dismounts. He should
run about one-fourth of a mile and get
in a tree where th- pups will soon find
him, where he will ti^rhl them as before.
Six or eight lessons like this will soon
give them an idea of what is wanted.
\\'hen you can teach him to take scent
from a horse, or garment that has been
touched, take the same runner to some
old uninhabited house or shanty, with
no other houses r-ar. Have the run-
ner go there beiore you take th^
pups, and let him enter through the
window. When you bring the pups
within two hundred yards, put them on
his irail and they will follow him to the
window where he entered. Then he
must fight them through this window

with his coat or hat. until they ^rct very

pups whih- \hv nunur slips ( ijf \h-

mile and tak-s a M-ee. Then let the
pijps in the hoiisc ihn.i .!< th-- .-anie
hole \>y wliieh the runner e r. .-red. and
they will smell around the house to timl
him. When th.-y nnd that h«- has
passed out oi" the door, they will at oiue
t'lid his trark. and tj-ail aid tree him.
'I he next (\;iy ha\e a n< \\ nimier ;.ro to
the same hoiis^- as l.rt'oi'e, and let them
VO thi-ou.jh the saJle les-on. These les-
sons for a \\-\v days will leai h them to
take ti'ack iV'-m srent in any house.
The runner should. iT eon\ement, he a
nei^'ro, as he has a str(ei;:er sev-nt I'or
puppies to Work on than a white man
has.

These various lessons sh'-uld 1k»
^'iven them daily and with ;rn'at care
and i;atiene»'. Time and len^'th ot"
trail should i)e increased a little with
each lesson. As they j.'row older their
scent becomes more sensitive, and at
the a'Je of maturity they can run a trail
from 15 to oO hours old. Always tr<'at
your doi.;< knuily. but at the same time
let them know that you .re theii master.
We would draw your attention to the
fact that the I'loodhound is ' y no means
the blood thirsty animal he is ah/ays
depicted and supposed to be. On the
contrary, he is most good tempered and

and ".'it'lli .t and .just as trai-taliK' as
any other ..rt't'd. Keep thiii; tiod at
U'a>t 10 hours out of the 21. and never
let every man who eomes alon^ make
new su^'j-estions, and handle and play
with them. Ki'ep them in K«><'d, dry,
warm kennels, with as much yard as
possible to run in. and where they ean
Kt't plenty of blade Ki'it-^-^. lor this is a
do;^'s medicine.

Never let your do^'s ji^et too fat as a
lean do'^ will do better work than a fat
one. Always j^'ive them their morning
lesson before feedinK- A hungry do^
will do better work than an overfed one.
Never allow them to run after any kind
of vermin or animals; train exclusively
for human track. Always keep your
kennels clean and supplied with fresli
wheat straw. Give them as much but-
termilk as they will drink o! e or wice
a week. With these suj^K^'stion.- md a
little experience, any intelli^eiT m^m or
ooy, with .''ome patience, ca?^ each
these dogs to be expert man tr.
