Central States Field Trial Association. 
There was much enthusiasm developed at 
the meeting held on Sept. 23, and final arrange¬ 
ments for the annual trials were concluded. En¬ 
tries close on Oct. 20, and the trials begin on 
Oct. 28. There will be open derby and all-age 
stakes, with $100 guaranteed in each. The en¬ 
trance fee in each stake is $5 to nominate and 
$3 to start. Purses divided 40, 30, 20 and 10 
per cent. A number of valuable merchandise 
prizes will also be given to the winning handlers. 
The trials will be run on territory near Hamil¬ 
ton, Ohio. Birds are reported in abundance, and 
the prospects for one of the most successful 
trials in the history of the club are good. The 
names of the two judges will be announced 
later. Arrangements have been made for serving 
dinner each day of the trials, and this feature is 
always one of the pleasant memories of these 
affairs. 
Pennsylvania Field Trials Club. 
Quail trials of the Pennsylvania Field Trial 
Club only will be run during the week of Oct. 21. 
The grouse trials will probably be run at Killar- 
ney Park, in the Indian Creek valley, on Dec. 5. 
The change was made so that the dogs will not 
go into the woods until the grouse season is 
over. The quail season does not open until 
these trials are run. 
Three events are carded for the quail trials. 
The derby for dogs under two years, not previ¬ 
ously placed and handled by amateurs; the all¬ 
age, for dogs of all ages not previously placed 
in an all-age stage, handled by amateurs, and 
the free-for-all for all dogs handled by amateurs. 
All dogs entered must be eligible to registry. A 
free-for-all is the only grouse trial. The purses 
are all $100 with a trophy cup. 
There are about thirty-seven pines native 
to the United States, of which twenty-five are 
Western species and twelve Eastern. 
American Woods Go to Orient. 
(From the Forest Service, U. S. Dept, of Agriculture.) 
Recent statistics indicate a marked increase 
in exports of lumber from the United States 
to the Orient. More than a quarter of a million 
feet of American woods are reported as being 
used in Samoa, Hawaii and the Philippine 
Islands. 
Heretofore, it is said, raw materials have 
been made up into finished articles in the United 
States, almost without exception, and exported 
as such. With the discovery by American manu¬ 
facturers in the Philippines that they could im¬ 
port United States woods and make them up 
with profit there, wood-using factories were 
built. Pacific coast woods, in consequence, are 
in many cases taking the place of the native 
woods with such picturesque names as apitong, 
teak, narra and yacal. 
Douglas fir, according to the information 
collected by the forest service, is the principal 
wood exported from this country. It is said to- 
be the favorite wood among insular manufac¬ 
turers for flooring, ceiling, siding, cornice, shelv¬ 
ing, finish and boat work. Makers of furniture 
demand California red wood and sugar pine, 
Southern quarter-sawed oak, Eastern ash, sugar 
maple and Western white pine. 
Four woods, principally conifers and oaks, 
go into the construction of boats for framing 
parts, masts, spars, interior trim, planking, boat 
crooks and tiller handles. Meat blocks are made 
from sugar maple, which with sycamore supplies 
the entire demand in the United States. Wagon 
felloes are made of white oak, and other parts 
of vehicles are manufactured from high grades 
of white ash and white oak. 
One of the largest forest nurseries in the 
United States is conducted by the Forest Service 
near Haugen, Montana. It is known as the 
Savenac nursery and has a capacity of 4,000,000 
young trees a year.

LIVE DECOYS 
The Celebrated Wallace Evans 
Strain of Pure-bred English 
and Belgian Gray Call Ducks 
There is far more pleasure in shooting wild 
waterfowl over live decoys than over the old- 
fashioned wooden blocks. As spring shooting 
is now a thing of the past, every duck hunter 
should be supplied with a few live callers so as 
to take full advantage of the autumn flight. 
Price $3.00 per pair, five pairs for $20.00.
