W. R. McKinnon, of the Minneapolis Rod and Gun 
Club, writes: “The Minneapolis Rod and Gun Club 
have petitioned the Park Board of the City of Minneap¬ 
olis to provide a municipal shooting ground, whereon 
trapshooting exclusively could be indulged in. At a 
hearing before that Board the question of safety and 
liability of the Park Board was brought up and dis¬ 
cussed at some length, after which an adjournment was 
taken, the matter deferred until such time as we might 
produce statistics showing the experience of trapshoot¬ 
ing, and the number of accidents as near as can be 
calculated therefrom. Any information pertaining to 
this point, or such information as will help us in pro¬ 
moting our cause with the Park Board of Minneapolis, 
will be a great assistance to us. It occurred to me that 
a municipal shooting grounds would be a proper thing 
in many of the cities where available property is be¬ 
yond the financial reach of the club, and the only grounds 
within financial reason have poor access for the shooters. 
To this end, we are making our appeal. It is the liabil¬ 
ity from accident that has delayed action from the Park 
Board. I want to get all information possible as to the 
experience of gun clubs in this line. Any pointers per¬ 
taining thereto will be greatly appreciated.”

CARTRIDGES 
Made by the 
Foremost Ammunition Concern in America 
T HE biggest name in the ammunition and firearms world 
to-day is Remington-UMC. 
Whether your arm is a Remington-UMC or any other 
standard make, whatever its calibre and the load you need, 
you want Remington-UMC metallics—not because they are 
necessarily stamped with the same name as your firearm, 
but because they give more accurate results. 
This Company has been making ammunition for fifty years. 
We produce metallics for every standard make of arm—and every 
Remington-UMC cartridge is tested in the arm for which it is made. 
There is a dealer in this community who can give you Rem¬ 
ington-UMC Metallics for your rifle, your pistol. Find him. 
Ask for them. Look for the Red Ball Mark on every box of 
metallics and shot shells you buy.
