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 ball for shipment 
p? to any part of the country, prevents the glancing of shot, 
sj—anU thereby Insures the breaking of the ball when hit. 
CAPTAIN BOGARDUS was the first to introduce the 
ROUGH BALL, and at a price tar below the smooth ball 
at that time.
