FROG SHOOTING. 



Frog shooting will probably be consid- 

 ered a childish amusement by bear and 

 moose hunters. Nevertheless it is good 

 fun, and by no means so cruel as some 

 higher branches of sport. The smallest 

 rifle ball is instant death to a frog; 

 there are no cripples to get away and 

 suffer. Then, too, the skill required in 

 this shooting is considerable. Try it from 

 a boat when the wind is blowing, and see 

 how many misses you can make. There is 

 no time for deliberate aim ; it is a snap 

 shot or nothing. And your target is onl> 

 a frog's head bobbing in the lily pads or 

 the pickerel grass. 



The best time is about 6 o'clock in the 

 evening, when the frogs are singing vespers. 

 In shore the little fellows are chanting 

 "Knee deep, knee deep, O weep." In the 

 lily pads the big fellows cry warningly, 

 "Better go 'round, better go 'round," while 

 other croakers make after dinner remarks : 

 "Lunk-lunk-lunkhead." "You're drunk, 

 you're drunk." 



From a gustatory point of view frog legs 

 lay over birds and venison. Dress them 

 nicely, roll in Indian meal, drop in y 2 

 pound of boiling butter and cook to a rich 

 brown. At the same time have a panful of 

 sliced potatoes and onions frying in pork 

 fat. When all is done and you sit down to 

 your camp dinner on the lake shore, you 

 will be glad you are alive. F. H. Carter,
