Game is on the wing! The first keen 
wind of autumn whistles a tune to the 
tramp, tramp, tramp of a care-free, can¬ 
vas-clad army taking the field—the Le- 
fever Shot Gun boys. 
Lefever Shot Guns 
THE GUNS OF LASTING FAME 
The Lefever has been the pioneer in every sound 
improvement in double barrel shot guns for nearly 
half a century. In compensating features, in dur¬ 
ability, style, finish, balance and simplicity, or in 
general all-round shooting qualities it has no equal. 
Any man who owns a Lefever will be proud to 
show it to you and explain its advantages. Send us 
a postal for the beautiful new Lefever Gun Book, 
which tells all about gun making—something you 
ought to understand before you buy a gun.

well understood and easily accomplished, most 
game preservers make themselves practically in¬ 
dependent of the fox and his doings by filling 
their coverts with birds from the rearing fields. 
Birds that are not turned into the woods until 
they are big enough to perch on the branches 
seldom provide a supper for “Mus’ Reynolds.” 
TROUT FISHING IN IRELAND. ' 
Things in Ireland, social and industrial in¬ 
cluded, are just now in a state of very pro¬ 
nounced transition, all the more rapid and thor¬ 
ough, perhaps in proportion to the present sig¬ 
nificant noiselessness of the country. What a 
year or two even may bring forth it would per¬ 
haps be rash to say, but just at the moment all 
the trout fishing of Ireland is practically open 
and free, and a man may wander where he will 
so long as he does not forget to be a little dis¬ 
creet and courteous on occasion, and may cast 
a fly on any water which takes his eye. Bits 
of preserved waters here and there, in private 
grounds and parks, on salmon rivers, in club 
hands and charged-for fishing there always have 
been more or less, but at the present the trout 
fishing of Ireland is all practically open to the 
man who does no damage and asks his way and, 
indeed, is pretty well open as well to him who 
neglects both precautions.—Shooting Times.

The “Forest and Stream” Trap Score Book 
Meets the needs of gun clubs and shooters in every particular. The ifT* 
sheets are heavily ruled—an advantage all scorers will appreciate, particu¬ 
larly when working in a dim light. The horizontal spaces are numbered 
from 1 to 30. Broad perpendicular lines divide these into groups of five, 
which aids the eye of the scorer greatly. Similar heavy lines divide the 
perpendicular spaces into groups of six; thus the squads are distinguish¬ 
able 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.
