held its seventh shoot for the Forest and Stream cup

shooters are anxious to win this handsome trophy. The

J. Maurer has been doing the best shooting, as he 
and J. Heil are the only ones that have not had a 
handicap through the shoot. The club’s new trap is 
working good, and with the grounds in good shape and 
a clear sky background, we now have one of the most 
up-to-date clubs in this section, and invite all shooters 
to come on Oct. 5 and have a good time with us. 
Below are the scores made to-day:

FIELD TRIALS. 
Oct. 28.—Southern Ohio Field Trial Association’s second 
annual field trials. G. R. Harris, Sec’y, 15 West 
Sixth St., Cincinnati. O. 
Connecticut Field Trial Club. 
Hartford, Conn., Sept. 5 . —Editor Forest and 
Stream: The fourteenth annual trials of the 
Connecticut Field Trial Club will be held at 
Hampton, . Conn., commencing Tuesday morn¬ 
ing, Oct. 22, 1912. The annual meeting of the 
club will be held on Monday evening, Oct. 21, 
at 8 o’clock at the Chelsea Inn and the drawing 
for starting order will take place at this 
meeting. 
At the trials last year more birds were 
found than for a good many years past. At the 
present time it looks as if every brace down 
this year should be able to find birds. 
The judge of the trials this year will be Mr. 
W. W. Titus, of West Point, Miss. 
During the meet a bench show will be held 
to which every dog entered in the trials will 
be eligible. The entry list will include the very 
cream of setter and pointer breeding, and the 
awards in the bench show will mean that the 
winners are not only good in performance but 
also in looks and conformation. 
The entry list promises to be bigger and 
better this year than ever before. A large 
entry is already assured in all the stakes, and, 
aside from the good time which every one will 
enjoy at the trials, there will be “class” and 
interest enough in the trials to furnish enter¬ 
tainment and education for every one present. 
The entries close Oct. 12, 1912. Address 
entries, with forfeit money, to 
C. H. Gillette, Sec’y-Treas. 
Dogs for Food. 
An inquiry leads to a little known fact which 
is the derivation of the name “Chow Chow.” 
This dog hailed originally from the celestial Em¬ 
pire, where he is used for food; hence the name 
Chow Chow, which is pigeon English for an 
edible. In China the chow is not fed on meat, 
but is sustained and fattened on rice and other 
grain. He is butchered in the same manner as 
sheep and other small food animals. In front 
of Chinese meat shops, dressed chow and cat’s 
paws may be seen hanging in the same way as 
sheep, etc., are “hooked'’ in front of our shops, 
and a dainty, tasty appearance has the luscious 
chow as it hangs as a tempter to the Oriental 
housekeeper. The Chinese restaurants offer 
most delectable dog dishes such as soup, ragout, 
broil, roast and stew. Cat’s paws hold a position 
in China relative to that of pig’s knuckles among 
Americans. 
TRUE BLACK OPALS SCARCE. 
Black opals are commonly the result of arti¬ 
ficial coloring, but true black opals have been 
mined in a small district at the head of the 
River Darling in northern New South Wales 
during the last nine years. 
The output was at first very small, but for 
a few years amounted to 30.000 to 40,000 per 
annum. At present they have become extremely 
rare, hardly any having been found during the 
last nine months.—From the Scientific American.
