AMERICAN 
DUCK SHOOTING 
By GEORGE BIRD GRINNELL 
No single gunner, however wide his experi¬ 
ence, has himself covered the whole broad field 
of duck shooting, and none knows so much 
about the sport that there is nothing left for him 
to learn. Each one may acquire a vast amount 
of novel information by reading this complete 
and most interesting book. It describes, with a 
portrait, every species of duck, goose, and swan 
known to North America; tells of the various 
methods of capturing each, the guns, ammunition, 
loads, decoys and boats used in the sport, and 
gives the best account ever published of the re¬ 
trieving Chesapeake Bay dog. 
About 600 pages, 58 portraits of fowl, 8 full- 
page plates, and many vignette head and tail 
pieces by Wilmot Townsend. 
Price, edition de luxe on hand made paper, 
bound in buckram, plates on India tint paper, 
each copy numbered and signed by author, $5.00. 
Price library edition, $3.50.

Club and contains an extremely interesting article from 
his pen descriptive of his visit to the Yellowstone Park 
in 1903. Other papers are on North American Big 
Came; Hunting in Alaska; The Kadiac Bear; Moose, 
Mountain Sheep; Game Refuges and other big-game

not dry out quickly like heavier oils, gum, harden 
or collect dust no matter how long gun stands. 
*‘3in One” cleans outtheresidueof burnt powder 
(black or smokeless) after shooting, leaving the 
barrel clean and shiny. It actually penetrates 
the pores of the metal, forming a delicate per¬ 
manent protecting coat that is absolutely 
impervious to water or weather. No acid.
