Let me thank you for the Winchester rifle 

 which you sent me as a premium. It is a 

 good one, and shoots well. I have now 3 

 Winchesters of different calibres, and think 

 them the best gun made.

Thanks for the Big Game book. I 

 wouldn't miss it for a week's board, nor miss 

 a week's board with it. I wish you would 

 put more of such stories about bears, moose, 

 deer, etc., in each number of Recreation.

I have tried the Kenwood sleeping bags, 

 and as a combination they are excellent. I 

 have used them in all kinds of weather, and 

 at different seasons of the year. Any 2 of 

 them would, in my opinion, be warm 

 enough ; but with the 3 one can sleep out of 

 doors on the snow.

The other day I spent an hour in look- 

 ing over a well worn copy of " Cruisings in 

 the Cascades." 



Have read it 3 or 4 times; but always 

 find something of interest in its pages.
