Take a day off and go hunting 
Oil up your shotgun, get into your old hunting togs, then 
ho for a tramp in the cool, snappy fall air, over fields and 
through woods. 
Chances are, there’s plenty of game within reasonable dis¬ 
tance, if you will take the trouble to inquire where it is to 
be found. 
A full game bag is sure, if birds are plentiful, your hand is 
steady, your eye true, and you are using shells loaded with

information for the hunter, best loads for different game, etc.

TRADE NOTES. 
Sportsmen who are planning to raise game 
birds will do well to secure some of the litera¬ 
ture to be had on application to Wenz & Mack- 
ensen, Yardley, Pa. This firm has the largest 
breeding farm in the country, and has been re¬ 
markably successful in its work. It has made 
a specialty of Hungarian partridges, but supplies 
other game birds, birds of plumage, game wild¬ 
fowl and pets. Having a large stock on hand, 
the firm is prepared to promptly fill orders for 
animals and birds for stocking purposes. 
Few trade catalogues are so instructive as the 
large one issued annually by W. J. Cummins, of 
Bishop Auckland, England. This is a large book 
of more than 300 pages, fully illustrated, in 
which a great many pages are devoted to the 
art of fishing and to allied subjects. As Mr. 
Cummins’ trade in America is large, he devotes 
considerable space to American fishing and tack e. 
He will send the catalogue to any angler who 
will apply for it.
