Bogardus’ Patent Rough Glass Balls 
and Glass Ball Traps. 
These Traps are the only ones that give satisfaction, as 
they are simple of construction, easily set, and not liable 
to get out of order, and they throw the ball In a manner 
that more closely resembles the flight of a bird than any 
other trap in the market. The Patent Rough Glass Balls 
are made of uniform weight and thickness, and have a 
corrugated surface that strengthens the hall for shipment 
to any part of the country, prevents the glancing of shot, 
.and thereby lnanres the breaking of the ball when hit. 
CAPTAIN BOGARDUS was the first to introduce the 
ROUGH BALL, and at a price far below the smooth ball 
a *BaUs and*Trap can be ordered through all Gan Dcal- 
— era . Liberal discount to the Trade.
