AN EYED FLY BOX 



BY E. P. COOK, M. D. 



I sent away and got a box for 



eyed flies, and such a monstrosity 



as it was more of a load than 



the fish on many trips. I knew

 was painted with waterproof 

 white enamel to prevent rusting. 

 Next, sections of corks were glued 

 to the inside, as drawings show,

 inches long, 2% inches wide, y*, 



inch thick. Will hold twenty-five 

 or thirty flies. Slip easily into a 

 vest pocket.

 that I could find was made. An-
