The “Forest and Stream” 
TRAP SCORE BOOK 
meets the needs of gun clubs and shooters in every par¬ 
ticular. The 150 sheets are heavily ruled—an advantage 
all scorers will appreciate, particularly when working in 
a dim light. The horizontal spaces are numbered from 
1 to 30. Broad perpendicular lines divide these into 
groups of six; thus the squads are distinguished at a 
glance. 
The paper manifolds easily, and carbon sheets are 
placed in the book for that purpose. . . 
It contains the American Shooting Association Rules 
for Live-Bird Shooting, for Double Live-Bird Shooting, 
for Inanimate Target Shooting, Hurlingham Revised 
Live-Bird Rules for single and double rises, and the 
Rose System of dividing purses. Price, $1.00.

SIXTY-THREE YEARS AGO 
“Bill” Hamilton, then 20 years of age, set out from St. 
Louis, Mo., with seven other free trappers under the 
leadership of old Bill Williams. Seven of these eight 
men are dead, but Hamilton still lives out in Montana 
and still sets his traps. He has written the story of his 
early trapping days and the book has been published. 
It is called 
MY SIXTY YEARS ON 
THE PLAINS 
By W. T. HAMILTON 
It tells of trapping, trading, Indian fighting, hunting, 
and all the many and varied incidents of the trapper’s 
life. It is full of adventure and excitement, but the story 
is told modestly, and there is nothing in it that is lurid. 
Amid much fighting, there is nothing that can be called 
“blood and thunder,” but there is much that is history. 
The book has all the charm of the old volumes, telling 
of early travel in the West; books which were simple 
and direct, and in which there was no striving for effect. 
It is illustrated by a portrait of the author and one of 
the celebrated Chief Washaki, and by six drawings of old- 
time trapper and Indian life, by Mr. Charles M. Russell, 
the celebrated cowboy artist of Great Falls, Montana.

FLY-TYING MATERIALS. 
Continued from page 741. 
salmon, and I believe it is so unnatural that 
scares more fish than it attracts. Take tl 
famous red palmer or caterpillar^ of Ronald 
made with a good red natural cock’s hackle, ar 
compare it with the mass of fluff dyed a glarii 
magenta, which so often does duty for it. Iri; 
fly-makers have for generations had a reputatic 
for getting fine results from dyeing feather 
Fifty years ago or more there was a rage f< 
‘fiery brown,’ which was supposed to be the mo 
killing hackle you could wind on to a saline 1 
fly. Mr. S. Haines, of 63 Patrick street, Cor 
gets the best results I have ever seen from tl 
dye-pot. If I were a wholesale fly-maker, 
should get all my dyed material from him. 
“In his ‘Floating Flies and How to Dre 
Them,’ Mr. Frederic M. Halford, after givii 
an excellent illustrated description of how 
spin or twist dubbing on to the tying-silk, say 
‘By the same method, having a hackle of f 
right color, but too long in the fibre for the si 
of the hook, the fly dresser can, by detachii 
the separate strands, laying them horizontal 
across a length of thoroughly waxed doubl 
tying silk, and twisting them as for dubbing, pr 
duce an imitation hackle with fibres only h 
the length of the natural one from which th 
are taken.’ The difficulty as regards getti 
good hackles for small flies—the smaller the 
the greater the difficulty—is that there are so f< 
on a bird compared with the larger hackles, 
believe it would pay some of the wholesale hous 
to train one or two girls to make artificial hack! 
in this way out of big hackles, which are abu 
dant, and of little use except for salmon flic 
and I suppose for every salmon fly at least t 
thousand trout flies are made. In this way th 
would get good natural color and strong glos 
fibre. I suggested this method of making a had 
in the Fishing Gazette some years ago, not th 
being aware that Mr. Halford had described 
long before in his invaluable book. 
“Speaking of the disadvantages of some matt 
ials for fly-bodies, Mr. Halford says, in his orii 
nal edition of ‘Floating Flies and How to Drt 
Them’ (now getting scarce, and destined to 
one of the ‘valuable’ books from the collecto 
point of view) : ‘Another great disadvantage 
the drv-fly fisherman, when using flies with s 
or dubbing bodies, is the extreme difficulty 
drying them when once saturated with moistu 
Possibly, at some future date, a means of th< 
oughly waterproofing dubbing may be invent 
and, if so, I venture to predict that the dubbi 
body will entirely supersede the quill, as bei 
so much more transparent and watery in ; 
pearance.’ 
“The waterproofing material Mr. Halfc 
called for was given to the angling world in 1 
Fishing Gazette a few years after Mr. Halfor
