Optimistic reports are coming in from the game fields. No wet 
breeding season this year. Quail, grouse, chickens and ducks are 
reported in large numbers throughout the country as a whole. 
Reports from trap shooters and game shooters state that U.M.C. 
Steel Lined Nitro Club and Arrow Shells are the “best ever.’’

dense smokeless powder.” Write to-day for 1908 Game Laws.
