*. li^^ Second International Clay-Pigeon Tournament, held at New Orleans, La., Feb. 11 

 to 16 1885, the First Prize and Diamond Badge in the Individual Championship Match, open 

 to all the vsrorld, was won by B. Tiepel with a Parker gim. Among the contestants shootmg 

 other guns were such chamijions as Carver, Bogardus, Cody, Stubbs, Erb, and others. Dtir- 

 mg the entire tournament more prizes were won with Parker guns, in proportion to the 

 number used, than with any other gim. 



Hundreds of Prizes 



have been won with AMERICAN 'WOOD 

 POWDEK, loaded in the followng manner. 

 No. 1 ropreseuis tho exact proportion of a Wood-Powder 

 Shell properly wadded before the wads have been rammed 

 <lo\vn. No matter what kind of wada are used, the same 

 should be tough and hard, and the same thicknens of wad- 

 ding should be used aa shown in these Guts. 



I II many Parker, Colt and other guns, wads of one or two 

 Sizes larger than bore of shell must be used, as the inner 

 diameter of the barrels of such guna is from one-half to 

 two calibre larger than that of paper shells, preventing tho 

 necessary confinement and causing half of tho charge being 

 thrown out uuburnt. This is the secret of failures to got 

 the desired penetration with AMEEICAN

No. 1. 



In the absence of Stronger primers than used for American 

 bhells, we advise to put a little black powder in the bottom 

 of the shell, which will generate about the same initial heat 

 as a stronger primer and help burning the whole charge of 

 Tvood Powder, even when not confined as thoroughly as 

 W. P. must be, to give best possible results when used pure 



No, 2 represents the properly loaded cartridge. The 

 wads have been nimmert. down about three-eighths of an 

 inch with two or three hard blows of a mallet or hammer 

 and a tight fitting ramming-stick, until the Wood Powder ih 

 prestsed into a solid mass. The shot la then put on in the 

 ordinary way and shells crimped down tightly. Por brass 

 , shells use wads two sizes larger than gauge. 



Up toonedram more Wood Powdc-r may be used than black 

 powder with comfort, and Increased penetration and pattern

It has Nickle Plated Patented SoUd Reel Plate which prevents Reel getting fast by swelling of wood, 

 f rod should get wet. FuU Nickle Plated, Patented Ferrules, aUowing the wood to be used the full 

 size, thus preventing rod breaking where wood and ferrules join. Metal Tennons which prevent iointa 

 getting stuck together. The entire rod is made fi-om the best selected lancewood, left natural color, 

 varnished and polished. This makes a handsome finish, and is less liable to be seen by the wary fish 

 than a dark rod. The butt is wound with cane and silk in an artistic manner, which not only gives it 

 the appearance, but also the feeling of the high-priced rods. The complete rod has a look of beauty, 

 which IS a joy to eveiy fisherman's heart while using it. It is weU and neatly ringed throughout, and 

 has an extra winding between each ring. There has been so many rods made of an inferior quality 

 that resemble this, that aH from this date will have stamped on reel plate "W. H. Cruttenden," and none 

 genuine unless so stamped. Length, lOUft: weight, d% to lOozs. All the parts are interchangeable, and 

 If, by accident, any part should get broken, can send duplicate without rod being returned. The best 

 made rod in the United States, and we will guarantee it in every way. With short tip it makes an excel- 

 lent bass rod. Sent to any part of U. S. in case, 1 bass, 1 trout tip, prepaid, for $5.85; bass tips, $1.00: 

 trout tips, $1.25. General aa-ent for Card's Rotating Trap. Guns,. Pistols and Fishing Taclde. Gunmak-
