 a bird in use. 



Every ball is weighed and examined, then packed with the greatest care, in barrels of 300 or boxes of 

 500. Si nd for price list. We intend offering special inducements to the trade.

HUBER & MERWIN'S CHAMPION BALL TRAP, 



We eail the attention of the fraternity 

 to the above trap, claiming to be the »i« 

 plus ultra. Iu combines compactness 

 Witt, durability, and is arranged, by a 

 sw.'vei on the bed-plate, to throw a ball 

 in any direction or at any elevation un- 

 known to the shooter, a screen prevent- 

 ing his seeing the direction in which the 

 trap is set. 



The spring, as the cut will show, is 

 made of a steel rod or wire, bent spirally 

 at the point of attachment, thus receiving 

 the concussion its entire length, and pre- 

 venting breakage.
