The Merit 



of absolute PURITY, 

 fine BOUQUET and 



moderate PRICE has 

 brought 



Great 

 Western 



to the first place in Amer- 

 ican Champagnes, and 

 enabled it to displace the 

 high-priced foreign wines 

 in many homes, clubs and 

 cafes. 



The vintage offered this 

 season is especially dry 

 and pleasing.

Accept my sincere thanks for the pre- 

 mium sent me, " The American Book of the 

 Dog." I consider it a present from you 

 because I secured the necessary number 

 of subscribers with so little effort. Since 



1 have shown the premium to my friends. 



2 declare their intentions of getting up clubs 

 also. 



It requires no work on the part of the 

 solicitor to get subscriptions. Recreation 

 speaks for itself. 



When I read the articles and comments 

 of various writers, I think it must be a 

 pleasure to have so many well satisfied pa- 

 trons. 



Any sportsman or person fond of out- 

 door life, not satisfied with Recreation, 

 does not know what recreation means. 



I commend the stand you take in regard 

 to the protection of game, and hope those 

 interested in its maintenance and propaga- 

 tion will awaken to a sterner realization 

 of the true conditions that exist in each 

 State and county. 



This should not be left entirely with the 

 game wardens, but all so interested should 

 make it their business to see that violators 

 of the game laws are punished.
