Salem County Rod and Gun Club. 
Salem, N. J. —The Salem County Rod and Gun Club 
held a very interesting shoot on New Year’s Day. The 
recent blizzard had banked the snow in huge drifts 
around the club house, and trenches were dug around 
the stands that were four feet deep. For the club cup 
Walton Steward and George House tied on a score of 23. 
In the shoot-off Steward won out by one target. The 
sweepstakes were well contested. The miss-and-out 
events were novel and tested the staying qualities of the 
shooters. The score: 
Club cup, 25 targets: Hart 18, Schubert 19, Steward 
23, House, 23, Compton 17, W. Bradway 11. Hall 19, 
Bradway 18. Shoot-off of tie, 5 targets: Steward 4,

Club Notes. 
The blizzard which on Christmas night enveloped this 
section with eighteen inches of snow, has no doubt killed 
off many of the quail in South Jersey. The game war¬ 
dens, assisted by members of the Salem Club, have been 
doing heroic work in clearing away places in the woods 
and depositing feed. In sections where they have been 
unable to reach they have telephoned farmers to feed 
the quail and the State would reimburse them. 
The Salem Club is arranging for a diamond-back ter¬ 
rapin supper at their club house in this city on the 
evening of Washington’s Birthday. A tournament will 
be held in the afternoon and the supper in the evening. 
At the last meeting of the club Senator William Plum¬ 
mer, who is a member, asked for expressions of opinion 
regarding the existing game laws. The sentiment ot 
those present seemed to be in favor of the season for 
shooting ducks opening earlier and restoring the one, 
hour shooting after sundown. Some were opposed to the 
resident license fee, while others were in favor of the 
fee, providing a liberal share of the money is used in 
restocking the woods and streams with birds and fish. 
Many were in favor of using dogs for gunning deer, be- 
lieving that there will be less crippled animals and the 
deer will be driven to the thick timber and cause the 
farmers less annoyance and damage to their growing and 
harvested crops. 
The club has hit upon a novel method of keeping be¬ 
fore the members the dates of the regular meetings. 
Through the courtesy of the Harrington-Richardson Co., 
Worcester, Mass., the club has been furnished with 
enough calendars to supply one for each member. Before 
being distributed, the pads are marked with a rubber 
stamp over the date of the regular meeting night through¬ 
out the year. In this way each member has a steady re¬ 
minder of the meeting nights and no trouble is found in 
securing a quorum at each meeting. V. P.

when shot from the .401 CALIBER 
Winchester 
SELF-LOADING RIFLE, MODEL 1910 
This new Winchester shoots a heavier bullet 
and hits a harder blow than any other recoil 
operated rifle made. It is even more power¬ 
ful than the .30 U. S. Army, of big-game 
hunting fame. The loading and firing of 
this rifle is controlled by the trigger finger. It 
HITS LIKE THE HAMMER OF THOR. 
Send for illustrated circular fully describing 
this new rifle which has strength and power plus.

Chattanooga Gun Club. 
Chattanooga, Tenn., Jan. 2.—A gloomy, disagreeable 
New Year’s Day cut short the attendance, and what was 
to have been a 200-target program at the Chattanooga, 
Tenn., Gun Club, Jan. 1. 
Our friend J. R. Livingston was a welcome visitor, and 
though his score suffered from his not having his own 
gun, when he finally did strike one that suited him, 
shot in something like his u. g. f., breaking 71 out of 
his last 75. This, considering the heavy mist and fog 
which hung over the river, and against which the targets 
were thrown, was a good piece of work indeed, even for 
the “runner up’’ in the last Grand American.
