RECREA TION. 



gentlemen that goes out ; and the tro- 

 phies it enables them tc bring back are 

 prized equally with those that are cap- 

 tured with rod or gun. 



One of the most notable achievements 

 of this kind that has ever been recorded 

 was that of Mr. F. J. Haynes, the St. 

 Paul photogtapher, who, in the dead of 

 winter made a snow-shoe trip through 

 the Yellowstone National Park, carrying 

 a camera, and bringing out with him a 

 number of beautiful pictures of elk and 

 buffaloes, besides charming views of the 

 mountains, the geysers and the great 

 forests clad in their winter garb of snow. 



Mr. A. G. Wallihan, of Lay, Colorado, 

 has also made some wonderful photo- 

 graphs of elk, deer and antelope, on 

 their native heath, planting a camera 

 near their runways, lying in wait until 



they approached near enough and then 

 uncovering the lens. 



L. A. Huffman, of Miles City, Mon- 

 tana, has carried a camera into some of 

 the wildest places on the continent, and 

 has as fine a lot of big game pictures as 

 has ever been made. These gentlemen 

 are welcome to all the benefit they may 

 receive from this statement. I hope it 

 may be the means of their selling hun- 

 dreds of pictures, for they are great edu- 

 cators. 



I have sets of the pictures made by all 

 three of these photographers, and some 

 of them will be reproduced in future 

 issues of Recreation. I should be 

 glad to hear from all amateur photog- 

 raphers who have pictures of game, fish, 

 camp scenes, or other subjects in this 

 line.
