FRITZ. 



I hand you herewith a photograph of 

 the thoroughbred cocker-spaniel, " Fritz," 

 Owned by Joseph Boehrer, Viroqua, Wis- 

 consin. He is not yet 2 years old, but is the 

 pet of all the sportsmen who know him, 

 owing to the fact that he possesses all the 

 points of merit usually found in the blue- ] 

 blooded cocker. 



"FRITZ." 



He is thoroughly trained in every re- 

 spect, and is a natural and willing worker 

 on ruffed grouse and woodcock, as well as 

 a careful retriever on land or water. His 

 excellent conduct in chicken shooting, last 

 fall, surprised many of the local sportsmen. 



He will " stand," and will do the other 

 necessary work, in this respect, at the com- 

 mand of hi.> master, whether given viva 

 voce, or by whistle. 



He will tree ruffed grouse to the queen's 

 taste, and will tow the largest goose to 

 shore, safe. Fritz is a jet black and is per- 

 fection itself in form and weight. He has 

 the reputation of being the best general 

 purpose dog ever brought to this city.

LARGE MULE DEER HEADS. 



I send you herewith the photo of 2 mule 

 deer heads which I think the largest 2 and 

 3 point heads in America. The length of 

 beam of the 2 point, is 22 inches; spread 

 22/2 inches. 



SPREAD, 31$ INCHES. 



The 3 point has a length of beam of 2y]/ 2 

 inches, with the enormous spread of 31^2 

 inches. Each head has a crown point on 

 one horn, which is very uncommon with 

 2 and 3 point heads.
