Kennel Register. 



A monthly record of kennel event3 for the information and guidance of breeders, ex- 

 hibitors and owners of all breeds of dogs. 



Its leading feature is the "Pedigree Register," of sporting and non-sporting dogs, which 



makes it the only complete. Stud Book issued in America. A register number is given to 



each dog, and an index will be compiled at the close of each annual volume, thus forming a 



ermanent work of reference. The pedigree registration fee is twenty-five cents. The first 



two numbers of the Register contained the pedigrees of 138 dogs. 



Departments are also provided for the registration of stud visits, dogs at stud, births, 

 sales and transfers, dogs at sale, and deaths. 



Prize lists of all the American sho .vs will be given, with descriptions of the principal 

 winners and dogs exhibited; also prize lists of important shows abroad. This department 

 will include a record of field trials. The first two numbers of the Register contain prize lists 

 of Washington, Ottawa and Pittsburgh shows. 



The publication day is the fifth day of each month ; and nothing can be received for pub- 

 lication later than the first day of the month. Ail matters intended for publication should be 

 in the hands of the editor at the earliest practicable date. Entry blanks for each depart- 

 will be furnished free on receipt of stamped addressed envelope. 



TERMS: — Issued by yearly subscription only. The subscription price is one dollar per 

 year. Make drafts and money orders payable to the Forest and Stream Publishing Com- 

 pany. Address, American Kennel Register, P. O. Box 2,832, New York City.

Patent "Perfect" Brass Shells, 



MANUFACTURED BY 



KYNOCH & CO., Birmingham, Eng.

 base; are adapted to either Winchester or Wesson No. 2 primers. Can be re- 

 loaded as often as anv of the thicker makes. Cost only about half as 

 much. Weight less than paper shells. They shoot, stronger and closer, and

 nearlv two gauges larger. Load same as any brass shells, using wads say two 

 sizes larger than gauge of shells. Or can be effectually crimped with tool tas 

 represented in cuts i and straighten out to original shape when discharged.

 preciated by all experienced sportsmen. Sample shells will be mailed (without 

 charge) to any sportsmen's club or dealer, and prices quoted to the trade 

 only. For sale in any quantity by gun d or shells in case lots
