Capt. a. H. Bogardus writes of his forthcoming match: "It will be 

 a more skillful match than has been shot for years. We are to shoot 

 at 100 live pigeons each, 15yds. rise, with a circle of 10yds. drawn 

 around the trap, all birds must be killed inside the circle, and must be 

 retrieved by a dog. Use of one barrel only. The conditions approach 

 clo.sely field shooting. The match will be shot some time between 

 Sept. 20 and Oct 1. I shall name the day in a week or two. The man 

 who is to shoot against me is unknown. I do not care who he is; I 

 think I can win. a. H. Bogardus." 



ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. 



was 

 Laius 



remains the same. 



H. E. S., Columbia. S. C— Our goggle-eye is a poor fish aboundingln 

 lakes and streams, generally frequenting deep water and going in 

 schools. Is it the Pomoxys spnrnides. elsewhere known as calico bass? 

 An.s Yes. In Lake Erie it is the strawberry bass or grass bass, and 

 in Illinois th calico bass. It is also in various parts called goggle-eyed 

 per ch, bank lick bass, bitter-head and lamplighter. 



E M. S , Lansing. Mich.— Would you please advise how English carp 

 can be taken out of a small pond with muddy bottom? You ci naot 

 eaten more than one or two at a time with a hook and line, and ic is 

 impossible to catch them with a net, as tney bury themselves in the 

 mud. Ans. If you wish the fish for use persevere with the hook or 

 dram the pond and scoop them out. If you regard them as pests to 

 be gotten rid of, yuu may drain and scoop, or if there are no other fish 

 in the pond, and if the pond is not connected with other waters, use 

 lime or an explosi ve.
