DOG DEVELOPS HABITS OF PIG

Even His Bark is Mixture of Grunt \ and Squeal Greensburg, Ind. —Early last wlntei an automobile party in passing the lome of Seymour Cole, west of here, dropped a Small bird dog pup. The dog made its way to the house, but as it was not welcome, was sent to the barn. Here it found an oIU sowwith a litter of pigs.\ The pup attached itself to the litter and was made welcome. • • After being weaned along with tne pigs, the dog continued to live with the hogs, roaming over the field by day and sleeping with them at night It developed a taste for the same food, eats corn, etc., as if it were a hog and now its bark is changing In sound to resemble more a mixture of squeal and grunt than the bark of a dog. This storyrts vouched for by persons who have seen the dog and the hogs. »
