DEALING WITH SHEEP WORRIERS
A Victorian stud sheep farmer has found a novel method of combating loss of his' flock from the attacks of marauding dogs. A dog lover, he has always hesitated to shoot them. Instead, he trained a mastiff to grasp them by the scruff of the neck and hold them down while he writes a note which he ties to their tails. Home they run bearing the inscription: "He came home this time. Next time he may not."
