George M. Houghton, G. P. A., Bangor 

 & Aroostook Railway whose headquar- 

 ters are Bangor, Me., has issued a beauti- 

 ful book entitled "In the Maine Woods," 

 which will gladden the heart of every 

 sportsman who is fortunate enough to get 

 a copy of it. It is full of information 

 about hunting and fishing in Maine, and 

 contains hundreds of pictures illustrating 

 these sports. Among the most interesting 

 are a number of views of live deer and 

 moose. The book also shows portraits of a 

 number of well known guides whose faces 

 will be familiar to hundreds of people who 

 have hunted or fished in that State. When 

 you write for a copy of the book mention 

 Recreation. 



There are more with you in the fight 

 you arc making against the rightly named 

 game hogs than I believe you are aware of. 

 I refer especially to those living in the 

 States where I am acquainted, Wyoming, 

 Montana and Washington. I consider a 

 game hog a murderer at heart. He lacks 

 the sand to tackle his fellow men, but 

 shows his nature by slaughtering game. 

 Keep up the fight. It is a good one, and 

 all truly good men are on your sfde.

If you know of anyone who is raising 

 skunks please give me his address. I 

 should also like to obtain any published in- 

 formation as to their habits and breeding. 

 Those I have for sale have the musk glands 

 removed, and are entirely odorless. They 

 make fine pets, and are better for catching 

 mice than any cat is. 



I am busy now shipping live quails to 

 game associations, and have many orders 

 yet to fill.

The photo of the Lady Amhurst Pheas- 

 ant, printed on page 344 of May Recrea- 

 tion, was kindly sent me by J. F. Blome, 

 of Tomah, Wis., and should have been 

 credited to him, but this was accidentally 

 omitted. Mr. Blome is a large breeder of 

 pheasants, and anyone in the West wish- 

 ing to buy either eggs or birds of this 

 species would do well to communicate 

 with him. 



"Bixby's dog is a great imitator. He can 

 stand on his hind legs and drink from a 

 bottle." 



"I suppose he has often seen his master 

 do that." — Cleveland Plain Dealer.
