"FOREST AND STREAM SERIES." 



DEER HUNTING. 



BY JUDGE JOHN DEAN CATON. 



BY and by it will be time to hunt antelope and deer. It is 

 always time to read about them. Judge Caton's book 

 on tbe antelope, elk, deer, moose and caribou of America 

 discusses in a readable waj^ the life history of these animals 

 and the methods of their capture. It is the work of an 

 enthusiastic sportsman who has nad a wide experience and 

 has devoted the leisure of years to studymg these interesting 

 game animals. The volume is very fully illustrated, and is a 

 perfect storehouse of information and entertainment. The fii-st 

 edition was sold by the Boston publishers at |4. Price $2.50. 



WOODCRAFT. 



BY "NESSMUK." 



A COMPACT pocket handbook of condensed, boiled-down, 

 concise, clear, comprehensive, sensible, iiractical camp 

 gumption. "Nessmuk" has been "in the woods" in Michigan, 

 New York, Pennsylvania, and South America, and this is a 

 book for outers, wherever they kindle their camp-fire. Tlie 

 aiithor believes in "'smoothing it." He has learned how; now 

 he teUs others. It is much easier to learn from "Kessmuk" 

 than from Dame Experience. We should not be surprised if 

 "Woodci-aft" completely revolutionized the methods of camp- 

 ins out. If you aie going to the woods, read "Woodcraft" 

 before you go. It may add to your trip a hundred fold. 

 Price $1.00. 



DOG TRAINING. 



BY S. T. HAMMOND. 



HE was a promising puppy, and wlien you turned him over 

 to the breaker to be educated, you thought he was 

 bound to make "the best dog in the world." And you'll hot 

 soon forget how disappointed and disgusted you were when 

 the dog, the breaker and the big bill— all three turned up 

 together, and yoTi saw that the animal's spirit was broken 

 and it would take a steam calliope to make mm mind. Now, 

 this could not have happened if you had been wise enough to 

 buy a copy of Hammond's book, and in your odd leisure 

 moments train the dog yourself instead of having him 

 broken by some one else. We are selling edition after edition 

 of this book, and it is revolutionizing the systeln of preparing 

 dogs for work in the field. Price $1.00. 



SHORE BIRDS. 



A PAMPHLET for those who "gun" along the shore. Tells 

 of; I. Haunts and Habits— Where the bay birds live 

 and what they do at home. II. Range and Migration— Where 

 they go to breed and where to spend the winter. III. A 

 Morning Without the Birds— An episode of shore shooting. 

 IV. Nomenclature — Alistof our American species otLimicokc, 

 with a description of each specie-. V. Localities— Where to 

 go to shoot them. VI. Blinds and Decoys— How to shoot 

 them after you have reached the grounds. 45 pp., paper. 

 Price 15 cents. 



ANGLING TALKS. 



BY GEORGE DAWSON. 



AS a poUtical writer of conceded power, Mr. Dawson 

 wielded a trenchant pen; when he terned from the 

 conflict of parties to the praise of the favorite pastime of 

 "simple wise men," his essays, limpid as the crystal streams, 

 are aglow with the soft summer sunlight and melodious with 

 the songs of birds. When angling was the theme, he wrote 

 from a full heart and in closest sympathy with the scenes and 

 pursuits described. These "Talks" are brimful of manly, 

 wholesome sentiment; there is in them all not a particle of 

 cant. Their sincerity and overflowing spirit at once win the 

 reader, and he perforce shares the author's enthusiasm. The 

 effect is magical, like that of the mimic players in Xenophon's 

 Memorahilia: he who reads, if he be an angler, must go 

 a-flshing; and if he be not, straightway then must he become 

 one.— Extract from Publishers' Preface. Cloth, price 60 cents. 



CANOE "AURORA." 



BY DR. C. A. NEIDE. 



A CHARMINGLY written and always entertaining account 

 of a canoe cruise from Lake Geoj-ge, New York, down 

 the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers to the Gulf of Mexico, by the 

 Secretary of the American Canoe Association. To read the 

 cruise of the "Aurora" is the next best thing to having made 

 it; and the reading is decidedly more pleasant than would 

 have been participation in some of the misadventures related. 

 216 pp., cloth. Price $1.00. 



Any of the above books can be obtained in London of Davies & Co., 1 Finch Lane, CornhilL 



This gun has met with an unprecedented success since its introduction, far exceeding 

 all expectations. For several months the manufacturers could not supply one-quarter the 

 demand It meets the call for a target rifle, made with the same care as the finest finish, 

 at a medium price, and has demonstrated that a .32-ca)iber with proper proportions of 

 powder and lead, is sufiicient for 300 or 300-yard work. Two-tliirclM of all target 

 1 ifleM ill nsvi in this t^ouutry are Ballardo, showing that they are
