deliver a smashing blow anywhere along the line over the longest practical 
gang-shooting ranges. The ammunition they use is not only of 3,000 f.s. velocity, 
but it has bullet weight enough to make it effective out where the game is. There 
is nothing else in its class for its calibers: 22, 256, 30 and .35. 
To see what a difference bullet weight makes in energy at long game shooting ranges, 
and in higher energy at the shorter ones, see the ballistics tables in our 148-page catalog,

GAME PROTECTIVE 
ASS’N MEETING 
T HE third national conference of the 
department of game breeding and pre¬ 
serving of the American Game Pro¬ 
tective Association came to an end March 
14 with a dinner in the Waldorf-Astoria Ho¬ 
tel at which nearly 300 sportsmen and game- 
keepers, gathered from every important 
game state, were present. The dinner was 
presided over by Frederic C. Walcott, re¬ 
tiring chairman of the department, and the 
report of the resolutions committee, offered 
by Dr. A. K. Fisher of the United States 
Bureau of Biological Survey was unani¬ 
mously adopted. 
Briefly summarized, . these resolutions 
were as follows: 
1. A call to the 5,000,000 sportsmen of the 
United States to stand loyally by the Presi¬ 
dent in the country’s hour of need and an 
assurance to the President that they would 
do so. 
2. A call upon Congress to enact at once 
the enabling act, designed to make effective 
the treaty for the protection of birds that 
migrate between this country and Canada. 
3. A request that the Biological Survey 
institute an investigation into the apparent 
alarming diminution in the numbers of 
woodcock and make such suggestions as it 
deems fit for preserving this species. 
4. Providing that a list of reputable 
breeders of game birds and mammals be 
compiled by the department as an offset 
to the large number of unscrupulous men 
who are imposing upon the public at the 
present time. 
B USINESS sessions of the conference 
occupied two days, March 13 and 14. 
Particular insistence was made in 
most of the papers read that the public be 
educated to the fact that the preserving of 
game is a science and as such in most in¬ 
stances is to be preferred to long closed 
seasons for the protection and increase of 
game. 
Among subjects that claimed particular 
attention were the breeding of ruffed 
grouse, quail and ringneck pheasants. Alex 
G. MacVicar, in his report as chairman of 
the committee on ruffed grouse breeding, 
announced that a new and hopeful experi¬ 
ment in breeding this species would be 
tried out this year under the direction of 
his father, Donald MacVicar, for thirty 
years head gamekeeper for the Duke of 
Leinster. Moving pictures illustrating in 
detail the technique of pheasant and quail 
breeding were shown by E. A. Quarles. 
Attention was called to the imposition on 
the public on the part of a large number of 
breeders who advertise and sell as “genuine 
wild mallard ducks” birds that are purely of 
the puddle duck variety. E. A. Mcllhenny 
showed stereopticon views illustrating the 
difference between the genuine wild mallard 
and the puddle duck variety. 
Interesting addresses on the general sub¬ 
ject of wild life conservation were made by 
J. B. Harkin, Commissioner of Canadian 
Parks; Robert Sterling Yard, United States 
Department of the Interior, and Bradford 
Scudder, of Greenwich, Conn.
