A. H. D.. Sandusky, O.— Is the book I see advertised in your 

 paper by S. T. Hammond a good book for breaking dogs for field 

 use, and does it treat how to handle a dog according to his nature 

 oris that for the trainer to judge himself? An-. "Training vs. 

 Breaking" is a practical and successful guide for amateur dog 

 trainers; its teachings will aid you in handling a dog according to 

 his nature. 



M. C. L., Bethlehem, Pa —Can you direct me where to buy crap- 

 pies described in Forest and Stream, July 24, for stocking pur- 

 poses? Ans. Try Geo. W. Littleton, Sandusky, Ohio. Perhaps 

 Wm. Bullt.r, Superintendent Stale Hatchery, Ccrry, Pa., can teii 

 you of some other good point on Lake Erie not so far off. The 

 Pennsylvania name is cal co bass. It is very difficult to transport 

 live crappies in hot weather. 



T. S.. Brooklyn, N. Y. — Kindly inform me what bait is the best 

 for carp. I know a pon'i in which they were placed about two 

 years ago, but it is hard to get them to bite ou worms arcd bread? 

 Ans. Carp have been caught with a fluttering fly (Forest and 

 Stream, Aug. 19, 1S8W). For surface fishing grasshoppers have been 

 sue e=sfully used. In the South, dough mixed with cotton is often 

 effective. We have known them to b e taken on bottom lines baned 

 with raw beef. German < use maggots, larvfe <f wasps, angle worms 

 and boded grains of wheat and barley. Small but strong hooks 

 are needed. It is not easy to catch carp with rod and hue, and 

 good baits vary with the locality.
