of the trees at a very rapid rate, and the most 
experienced game shot must be on his mettle 
if a presentable bag to be made. Proprietors 
who wish to introduce the breed into their plan¬ 
tations should, at the proper season, secure a 
number of eggs, and these may be hatched un¬ 
der hens like those of the pheasant. Another 
method is to set the eggs in greyhens’ nests, 
care being taken that the smuggled eggs and 
those of the sitting bird are likely to hatch out 
at the same time. The chicks have a great 
relish for insects, but soon develop a decided 
taste for all kinds of wild berries, seeds of 
plants, and juniper and other leaves .—Sand and 
Water. 
MANY HUNTERS IN MAINE. 
Good hunting conditions at Dover and Fox- 
croft in Piscataquis, Maine, are reported since 
the recent rains which did much toward soft¬ 
ening the leaves and making conditions in the 
woods quieter. Scores of sportsmen have passed 
over the Bangor & Aroostook through Dover 
and Foxcroft during the past week and the 
hunting season is at its best at the present time. 
On many mornings the station platform in Fox¬ 
croft has had the appearance of a recruiting 
station for the foreign war with men and rifles 
by the dozen.

Ideal Hunting Preserve 
This property, which abounds in ducks, wild 
turkey, deer and sundry other kinds of game, is 
near Georgetown, S. C., and consists of 4,700 
acres, one-half being virgin timber and the re¬ 
maining half rice-fields. Its location is ideal for 
either a gentleman’s country home or a sport- 
man’s club; the homestead on the property can 
be easily and economically remodeled for either 
of these purposes. During the closed season the 
lands could be farmed and the timber turpentined 
or sold, and thus make the property absolutely 
self-supporting. This section is noted for its 
fine country homes and hunting preserves. For 
price and detailed information address: W. 
Darlington, Georgetown, S. C. 
Cherry is the wood most used as a backing for 
the metal plates from which illustrations are 
printed in magazines and periodicals. It is chosen 
above all others because it holds its shape, does 
not warp or twist, works smoothly and does not 
split.

of Fish and Game. All along the route of the Railway are streams famous for their Salmon and Trout

there is no other country in the world in which so good fishing and hunting can be secured and with 
such ease as in Newfoundland. Information, together with illustrated Booklet and Folder, cheerfully for¬
