TRACKS AND TRACKING 



often saved the game I was after, because it has 

 attracted a wolf, or a cat; and I would rather 

 kill one " varmint " than half a dozen bucks, 

 which last can at best elude a man who knows 

 how to track for but a limited length of time.

HUNTING WITH THE WIND 



The stand is at 2 if the hunter is alone, and uses only his scent or pipe 

 smoke to drive the deer out of the thicket. If a smudge is used 

 for this purpose, as is necessary in big thickets, the stand is at 1, 

 and if the hunter has a companion, one stands at 1, and the other 

 at 2. A smudge should be made distant enough from the thicket 

 about at 3 to give the hunter time to go around, and take his 

 stand at 1.
