124: GUN, ROD, AND SADDLE. 



The pinnated grouse can easily be domesticated. 

 Mr. Audubon, the^ naturalist, for some time kept quite 

 a number in a walled garden, where they became 

 as tame as domestic fowls ; nor do I believe there 

 would be any difficulty in transporting them across 

 the Atlantic. To gentlemen stocking preserves, or 

 desirous of being able to show a great variety of 

 game upon their estate, I believe this magnificent 

 member of the grouse genus well worthy of attention.
