Casting Rod 
I’m having my own casting rod made 
for all fishermen who want it now. It is 
a two-piece rod with all the resilience of a 
one-piece—and it’s almost as easy to carry 
as a three-piece. Notice my patent locking 
reel band. 1 guarantee this rod against break* 
e from any reasonable use.

THE GAME BOOK 
STANDARD BIG GAME MEASUREMENTS 
Every man wants to compare his trophy with those of other big game 
hunters. But comparisons are useless unless there is a fixed standard. 
The game book of the Boone and Crockett Club, the foremost organiza¬ 
tion of hunters of American big game supplies this. Compiled by J. H. 
Kidder, it provides directions for standard measurements of the large game 
animals of America, with spaces carefully arranged for complete data regard¬ 
ing the kill, locality, time, conditions, etc. 
It is handsomely and durably bound pocket size. It is an invaluable record 
for every man who goes into the wild for sport with the rifle, a handy book, 
a camp companion, and a library reminder of days afield. Leather.
