Dudley, it is easy to confuse medicine and other things. According to a passage in "The Alaskans", a very smart guy was taking a horse to the gold fields around 1900. His name was Arthur Burns(mind is starting to come back) and the Eskimos had never seen a horse and Arthur told them to feed it. It did not eat and he found it dead the next morning. The Eskimos came up and said" Great white dog did not eat salmon?"
