ah e j Ce the unique interest of its contents, the mechanical perfection, the richness 
abundance and truthfulness of its illustrations. Its very title brings to the mind a thousand 
memories of happy days afield, of big-game hunting in wild corners of the world, of days 
wi trout or bass on stream or lake, of loved companions of the rod or gun, of good fellows

SPORTSMAN TOURIST 
Are printed accounts of exploration and travel in little-known lands, of hunting and 
fishmg trips, of adventures in search of big-game, of happenings picturesque and Uirill- 
g y yearS ag °, m a West ~ then wild of Indian fights, of happy days afield in nearby 
covers with dog and gun in pursuit of the hurtling grouse, the lusty quail, or the whistling 
woodcock !n the pages devoted to Natural History questions are asked and answered 
and' I ' 6 hlStones and < l ueer hab >ts of birds, beasts and fishes; showing how they look 
and where they live; the preservation of trophies and specimens. Men rich in the knowl¬ 
edge of experience from their storehouses of nature lore, supply information useful and 
interesting to lovers of outdoor life and students of nature. 
GAME BAG AND GUN 
Is the title of another department, full of practical instruction for those who use fire- 
don-’h? ere ? Sh00ting excursions ; expert opinion on guns and ammuni- 
h f P f. a ? d hm , f ° r th f n0V ' Ce; dlscusslon s which appeal to the experienced gunner- 
news of all that ,s taking place in the field of game protection, propagation and preserva 
tion, information useful and interesting, first of all to the sportsman, but hardly in a less 
degree to the nature lover and the average man. Closely allied is the department of trap 
and rifle shooting with its news of current happenings and its comment by recognized experts 
SEA AND RIVER FISHING 
Not all technical, nor yet narrative alone. Both in their place and in the right pro 
P° rt r- I V, S ^ angl r firSt: what he ma ^ catch ’ whep e and how. Gives instruction 
on the handling and manufacture of rods, reels, lines and flies; hints on the care and use 
ot fishing tackle; information as to where fish of different kinds are most abundant and 
other points of moment to the angler. Then there are full reports of fly-casting tourna¬ 
ments; notes about stocking streams; where fry may be obtained, etc. 
YACHTING 
Thousands of readers, along ten thousand miles of coast, East, West, North and South 
find their sport afloat. Yachtsmen everywhere recognize Forest and Stream as the 
periodica! that meets their needs. It offers a department for the men that haul the ropes 
and hold the wheel. From the lad Down East, who has built his “Cat” with his own hands 
to the owner of the 90-rater, Forest and Stream appeals to all with its graphic accounts 
of races; its discussion of live yachting questions; the letters of its British correspondent 
and the superb illustrations of yachts and the practical designs it publishes 
Every one interested in outdoor life—Nature Study, Hunting, Shooting or Fish¬ 
mg, Yachting or Canoeing, needs the Forest and Stream, and those who have learned to 
need it find that they need it all the time. It is a habit that grows on one. 
FORE WORD 
In the year 1908 the Forest and Stream will be to the Nature Lover, the Gunner the 
Angler, the Yachtsman, the Outdoor man all that it has been for so many years—and more 
There will be Indian stories by J. W. Schultz, whose accounts of life among the 
old Plains tribes have thrilled so many readers. Mr. E. L. F. Jenner will give us more 
of those vivid sketches of the Northeastern country that he knows so well. Col W D 
Pickett, the greatest bear hunter that ever lived in America, will tell of a trip to the 
Yellowstone Park in the seventies, and describe some of the astonishing feats that he 
performed among the grizzlies of the Gray Bull River. There will be stories of the 
buffalo days by Charles Aubrey and George Bird Grinnell; accounts of the habits of 
birds, by Wra. L. Finley; the log of a whaling Cruise, by Victor Slocum; a series of 
articles on the ruffed grouse by S. T. Hammond, entitled, “My Friend the Partridge” 
and scores of other features, equally interesting and attractive.
