Excerpt from Primer for Town Farmers My own dog at the time was named Trash. He was a beautiful white Samoyede, and a very intelligent deg, and I was naturally proud.of him. But the boys said he was fancy, and his actions were somewhat humiliating at times. He was faster than any deg except the greyhound, and he loved to chase rabbits and pull a wagon or sled; but there his usefulness ended. It may have been ignorance, or it may have been kind heartedness - or it may have been just plain dumbness, as the boys said it was-but the fact remained that Trash just would not harm.a rabbit, or anything else for that matter, after he had caught up With it. I have had difficulty more than once protecting him from the wrath of an angry gang, after he had nearly caught a rabbit and.then stood around indifferently while it scampered away to safety.
