gether and form an airtight roast¬ 
ing or baking vessel) ; a kettle for boiling and stewing and two 
drinking cups wfith detachable handles. All of these utensils fold 
and nest together so that they fit inside of the kettle and still leave

coffee, tea and sugar. Made in the very best manner of high-grade 
material and weighs altogether only 31 ounces, less than two 
pounds. Is it any wonder that sportsmen everywhere are enthusi¬ 
astic about the STOPPLE KIT?

Endorse the 
Migratory Bill 
At a meeting of the executive committee 
of the National Association of Game and 
Fish Commissioners held at Washington, 
D. C., on the 13th day of June, 1917, pres¬ 
ent, M. L. Alexander, president, Louisi¬ 
ana ; Carlos Avery, secretary, Minnesota; 
John P. Woods, treasurer, Missouri; J. 
Quincy Ward, Kentucky; Geo. H. Graham, 
Massachusetts; and W. E. Barber, Wis¬ 
consin, the following resolution was unani¬ 
mously adopted: 
Whereas, There is pending in Con¬ 
gress a bill (S'. 1553—H. R. 2612) to 
give effect to the migratory bird treaty 
between the United States and Great 
Britain for the protection of migratory 
game and insectivorous birds in the 
United States and Canada; and 
Whereas, The conservation and pro¬ 
tection of the migratory insectivorous 
birds is so closely related to the con¬ 
servation of the food, cotton and tim¬ 
ber crops of the country, and the mi¬ 
gratory game birds constitute an im¬ 
portant source of the food supply, 
the conservation of which is so neces¬ 
sary to the success of the United 
States and her allies in the war upon ’ 
which we are now engaged; 
Therefore, be it resolved: It is the 
sense of the executive committee of 
the National Association of Game and 
Fish Commissioners that the said bill 
is and should be considered an impor¬ 
tant war measure, and we respectfully 
recommend the immediate passage of 
said bill by Congress as one of the 
most effective means of conserving the 
resources so necessary for the welfare 
of the country; 
Resolved further, That a copy of 
these resolutions be forwarded to the 
President of the United States, to each 
member in Congress, and to the Sec¬ 
retary of Agriculture. 
The Secretary of Agriculture has ap¬ 
pointed the new advisory board of twenty- 
one members, to recommend regulations
