RECREATION. 

WHAT THEY SAY OF THE PRE- 
MIUMS. 
THE BRISTOL ROD. 
I beg to acknowledge receipt of, and 
thank you for the Bristol steel rod you sent 
me as a premium for 10 subscribers for 
RECREATION. It is a beauty and I am sure 
it will prove as good as it looks. I expect 
to give it a thorough test when, 2 weeks 
hence, I take my vacation. had anio 
trouble in getting subscribers for RECREA- 
TION. They all want it. 
Wek. Packard, 
I am more than willing to subscribe for 
RECREATION because I get my money’s 
worth. I cannot go into the woods 12 
times a year for so little money as I can 
by reading RECREATION. Every issue is 
just like taking a hunting or fishing trip, 
as far as printers’ ink can possibly make it 
such.

I received the Syracuse hammerless gun 
for the club of 35 subscribers, and am de- 
lighted beyond all expectation. It is a 
beauty. I had no trouble’ in getting sub- 
scribers. RECREATION is the best magazine 
of its class. 
W. J. Butler, Appleton, Wis. ° 

Enclosed find $1 as one year’s subscrip- 
tion to the best sportsman’s periodical pub- 
lished. I wish all sportsmen’s magazines 
and papers would handle the game and fish 
hog with the same fearless vigor that REc- 
REATION does. 
L. C. Damm, Wormleysburg, Pa. 

The camera you give for 15 subscribers 
to RECREATION arrived all right and I am

only about 2 hours’ actual work to get the 
subscribers. I find the camera perfect in 
every respect. :
