RECREATION. 



you believe. Recreation is the best sport- 

 ing magazine out. 



Ernest F. Osterman, Elizabeth, N. J. 



Here is one more individual down here 

 in Virginia who wishes to add his voice to 

 the thousands applauding your work for 

 game protection. 



E. L. Dupuy, Blackstone, Va. 



Game has wintered well, especially 

 grouse and gray squirrels. We keep the 

 foxes cleaned out; over 50 were killed here 

 last winter. 



E. H. Smith, Brookfield, Vt. 



Game is not plentiful here at present, as 

 people hunt the year round; but with a lit- 

 tle hard work I hope we can stop the 

 slaughter. 



Jos. Kothgassner, Crescent City, Cal. 



Rabbits, quails and prairie chickens are 

 plentiful. Coyotes are occasionally seen. 

 Ducks and geese are abundant in the 

 spring. 



A. A. West, Volin, S. D. 



Geese, duck and ptarmigan (willow 

 grouse) eggs are plentiful; also many va- 

 rieties of water fowl, waders, swans, cranes, 

 etc. 



L. L. Bales, Nushagak, Alaska. 



Game here consists of prairie chickens, 

 quails, rabbits and squirrels. Public senti- 

 ment favors the enforcement of game laws. 

 H. H. B., Roland, la. 



Ruffed grouse are plentiful here, and no 

 one shoots them out of season. Keep up 

 the war on the game hogs. 



W. R. Collins, Morrisville, Vt. 



I like your style of missionary work 

 among game and fish porkies. Lace it to 

 'em. I wish you all possible success. 



F. Radek, Ashland, Wis. 



The abundance of some varieties of 

 game in this vicinity is almost wonderful 

 in these days of semi-extinction. 



J. L. DeVany, Bear River, N. S. 



Quails are numerous here. Rabbits be- 

 coming scarce, as they are unprotected and 

 hunted much with ferrets. 



O. K. Todd, Vermillion, O. 



This town was once set aside for King 

 Philip's hunting grounds and still has 

 abundant game and fish. 



E. M. Brastow, Wrentham, Mass. 



I have read Recreation a little over a 

 year. It is A No. 1, and the best sports- 

 men's journal published. 



J. T. L., Levingston, Mont. 



Game protection is becoming popular in 

 this section. I think Recreation is a 

 great civilizer. 



J. A. Wood, Cortland, N. Y. 



Keep up your good work against the 

 hogs and they will soon be exterminated. 

 W. R. F. & C. F. E., Franklin, Mass. 



Quail wintered nicely in this locality, 

 last year, and we have good fall shooting. 

 M. L. Mason, Grand Rapids, Mich. 



Game is scarce around here on account 

 of being killed whenever seen. 



W. R. F. & C. F. E., Franklin, Mass. 



Small game is plentiful as yet in Eastern 

 Texas, but it is going rapidly. 



Linn C. Turner, Tyler, Tex. 



Deer are fat this fall and winter, and 

 cats are slick and swift. 



L. L. Goodrich, San Antonio, Tex. 



THINKING OF CHRISTMAS 

 PRESENTS? 



How would a subscription to Recrea- 

 tion strike you for each of 5, 10, or 20 of 

 your friends? 



I received the Mullins duck boat O. K., 

 and am more than pleased with it. I 

 would not take twice the price asked for 

 the boat if I could not get another. 



M. T. Conklin, Elmira, N. Y. 



A Pneumatic mattress is a joy at home 

 or in camp, and 25 subscriptions will earn 

 you one. Send them now and you will 

 do yourself a kindness as well as me. 



This is the time to provide your camp- 

 ing outfit for next summer. You can get 

 a tent free by sending me 8 subscriptions, 

 and a larger tent for 25. 



I received the Webber hunting coat, and 

 am pleased much with it. Thank you for 

 your promptness in sending it. 



L. W. Brooks, Chico, Cal. 



Received the Abercrombie tent, and it is
