Hounds and Beagles 
By A FOX HUNTER 
This book tells how 
to develop the young 
hound into a high-

a true steady driver 
on the trail. Instruc- 
tions are given for 
correcting common 
faults such as babbling, loafing and back 
trailing. Instructions are given for de- 
veloping a pack, and the subjects of field 
trials, care, conditioning, handling and 
treatment are adequately covered. Every 
man who loves a hound should have this 
hook,

9 E. 40th Street New York, N. Y. 
Kid does not like to sit still long. I 
never made him sit much more than a 
minute at a time. 
At about this stage of the game the 
Kid seemed to realize that when I 
talked to him in a quiet but firm tone, he 
W'as supposed to do something. He 
paid more attention to what I said and 
he seemed to want to understand. 
To teach him to “Hold,” I had him sit 
down in front of me, and handed out the 
“Dead Bird” with tlie command “Fetch. ’ 
As soon as he took the block in his 
mouth I held his jaws together and or- 
dered “Hold.” I kept this practice up 
till it was only necessary for me to touch 
him lightly under the lower jaw to make 
him hold. I gradually drew my hand 
away, and soon he would hold till I took 
it from him. 
The Kid was now retrieving perfectly. 
I could throw the “Dead Bird” when 
he was not looking; then say “Dead 
Bird, Fetch” and motion the direction 
with my hand and he would hunt around 
till he winded it. Then he would fetch 
it to me, sit down and’hold it till I took 
it from him. 
Our only game bird here is the Ring 
Neck Pheasant, and the cock bird only 
can be taken. This means that a great 
many hens will be flushed and the hunter 
and his dog must simply stand still and 
watch them fly away. A young dog is 
very apt to give chase and sometimes he 
runs clear off the map. To overcome 
this chasing I taught the Kid to “Whoa.” 
This is a very simple lesson. Yet for a 
dog to stop instantly at command is one 
of the most important stunts he could 
do. If you can stop a hungry dog when 
he is going after a meal, you can stop 
him almost anywhere. 
I took a dish of food up to the Kid 
and let him smell of it. Then I carried 
it away about ten feet and put it down 
in plain sight. The pup was tugging at 
the end of his chain to reach the food. 
I slipped the cord over his head and un- 
snapped the chain. He went for his 
meal on a run. When within two feet 
of it, I took the slack out of the cord. 
As he was brought to a sudden stop I 
ordered “Whoa.” When he started up 
again I repeated the command and gave 
a slight pull on the rope. It only took a 
few repetitions to bring home the fact 
that “Whoa” meant stop. In a short 
time I could stop the Kid anywhere, even 
when his nose was within a few inches 
of a piece of raw beef. 
To make doubly sure of stopping the 
pup, I taught him to “Charge.” Putting 
him in a sitting position I gently pulled 
his front legs out from under him, 
which let him down with his fore paws 
stretched out straight in front. I held 
him in this position repeating the com- 
mand “Charge” several times. This took 
time and patience, but in the end I could 
put him at “Charge” and go away out 
of his sight and he would not move. 
After that I used the command “Whoa” 
and' “Charge” together and he would 
stop and drop at once.

QUAIL AND THE LAW 
{Continued from page 380) 
taken; the method whereby it may be 
taken; the use that may be made of it; 
and the supply that the citizen may have 
in possession. If the state may order 
such things, why may it not, for the 
purpose of perpetuating these protectors 
of growing crops and increasing these 
game birds for the sportsman, further 
qualify the ownership of quail as I have 
suggested? By this means food supply 
will be increased. Mr. Justice White 
said : 
“Indeed, the source of the police 
power as to game birds . . . flows from 
the duty of the state to preserve for its 
people a valuable food supply.” 
It is immaterial whether the food sup- 
ply referred to be in the birds them- 
selves, or in the food indirectly preserved 
through the predilection of the birds for 
insects that are destructive of crops. 
Quail are not such wanderers as are 
migratory game birds. They select a 
location and there they stay. 
The illustrations given by Mr. Daniel 
of uncertainty in the ownership of game 
resulting from individual ownership are 
not valid reasons against such owner- 
ship, because some game birds pass not 
only across state lines, but even across 
international boundaries. Mallards 
owned to-day by Arkansas, may be owned 
by Ohio to-morrow, and owned by Great 
Britain the next day. The conditions 
pointed out that may prevail in the event 
of private ownership already exist in 
public ownership. 
If a landowner treats his quail so badly 
that they take refuge in a neighbor’s 
fields this is not the fault of the law. 
Under my plan quail will enjoy the ut- 
most of protection, they will increase and 
thrive, and the hunter will have the 
sport that is now denied him.

ADVENTURES IN ANGLING 
A dventures in angling,” by 
Van Campen Heilner (Stewart, 
Kidd Co., 1922, 233 pages, price $3.00) 
is a book of colorful yarns such as an- 
glers will spin when constrained by the 
exigencies of winter, work, or whatever 
it may be, from the summer seas where 
their spirits are. It is a narrative of per- 
sonal adventure, mainly with the big 
game of the sea, alligator, amber jack, 
barracuda, dolphin, sailfish, swordfish, 
sunfish, sharks, salmon, tarpon, tuna, etc. 
The narrative is set down with suffi- 
cient scrupulous checking by daily diary 
and tape-line to be of value as an his- 
toric record of contemporary sport. It 
is full of the charm of skies, seas, birds, 
and the various natural phenomena that 
lure the angler-tourist from New Jersey 
sands to South Florida Keys and South- 
ern California. 
Besides chance allusions, three pages 
of appendix describe the author’s tackle 
preferences in detail. The book is en- 
riched by numerous interesting photo- 
graphs of fish and fishing, also several 
colored paintings by Frank Stick : the 
one of the leaping barracuda especially 
original and striking.
