Guys you'll have to get hints from hints to solve this problem.. once you solve half the rest is not difficult let me give you an example..

It says that:

7. The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.
11. The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.

which means we can get another hint that

The person who smokes Dunhill is not the one with the Horse as a pet

Or The person who has a Horse as pet does not live in the yellow house

So that's an example... you'll have to do a bit of cross thinking!!!!
