Two-Dog Men
The Indians of the Fort Berthold Agency, North Dakota, are passionately addicted to keeping dogs as pets. This is a problem that has for years distressed the Indian Bureau of the Department of the Interior. Grave cases have been reported to the Bureau of individuals who possess half a dozen dogs and hold on to them with a tenacity that no amount of moral, suasion can shake. Now it is announced that the braves of Fort Berthold Agency have decided to get along with two dogs per Indian, and to put, as well, a dollar tax on every dog within the legal quota.
