Il8 HUNTER'S AND TRAPPER'S GUIDE. 



Then, too, neither the trap itself injures 

 the fur nor gives the animal an opportunity 

 to do so. 



To sum up, these traps are superior to the 

 Newhouse : 



First, in that the treadles are very much 

 larger and enormously increase the " catching 

 space," and hence the chances of capturing 

 the game. 



Second, there is no lever to be forced up 

 by the jaws with the result of throwing the 

 game out of the trap. 



Third, they catch by the body and hold 

 the game fast. 



Fourth, they do not injure or permit injury 

 to the fur. 



Fifth, comparing sizes, they are lighter 

 than the Newhouse traps.
