HUNTING WAGON. 



There is nothing nicer than to have a hunting wagon to carry your 

 dogs in whether you have two or twenty. It is easy to make a crate 

 to set on a wagon bed. Have the crate built of slats two inches apart, 

 and so made that the dogs cannot stand up in it ; then they will not 

 quarrel or make dirt of any kind. Have the crate made with a double 

 deck, the top rounding and covered with a good oil cloth, thoroughly 

 waterproof.

The second deck will permit a free circulation of air, and so keep 

 the dogs cool, and can be used to store the guns and hunting outfit 

 and the feed for the dogs. In stormy weather the oilcloth covering can 

 be let down to completely cover the sides and the dogs will be kept dry 

 and warm. There should always be plenty of clean straw for them to 

 lie on. Have a hinge door made at the rear, that is, a door that can 

 be raised or dropped, and have the dogs get in that way. Always carry 

 a five-gallon jug of water in warm weather, as the dogs need water
