AMERICAN 



Kennel Register. 



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

 hibitors and owners of ali 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 



e.rmanent 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 jts 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. All 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: 1 — 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 Eegisteb, P. O. Box 3,833, New York City.
