Houseboats and Houseboating 
BY ALBERT BRADLEE HUNT 
A volume devoted to a new outdoor field, which has for its purpose 
three objects: 
FIRST —To make known the opportunities American waters afford for enjoyment of 
houseboating life. 
SECOND —To properly present the development which houseboating has attained in 
this country. 
Third— To set forth the advantages and pleasures of houseboating in so truthful a 
manner that others may become interested in the pastime. 
The book contains forty specially prepared articles by owners and designers of well- 
known houseboats, and is beautifully illustrated with nearly 200 line and half-tone 
reproductions of plans and exteriors and interiors. A most interesting chapter is devoted 
to houseboating in England. 
Outdoor people, and, above all, city people, will be greatly interested in this volume. 
The people of the United States are turning more and more toward an open-air life in 
summer, yet the lands accessible to centers of civilization are being taken up and utilized 
so rapidly that they are each year growing more and more expensive. 
The work is printed on extra heavy paper, and is bound in olive green buckram. The 
price is $3.00 net. Postage 34 cents.

BROADWAY WOLF HUNTERS. 
From the Subway to the snowshoe, from 
theatres to trackless forests, from the bright 
lights of Broadway to the camp-fires of Kippewa, 
'Canada, is the change to be made next month 
by a distinguished company of sportsmen going 
to the Province of Quebec to do death to the 
timber wolves, says the New York Herald. 
Literature descriptive of the expedition reached 
New York recently from L. O. Armstrong, of 
Montreal, who last February led a group of in¬ 
trepid hunters in quest of the animal he describes 
in his advance booklet as “man’s natural enemy.” 1 
Interested in the project last year were Gen¬ 
eral Nelson A. Miles, the Rev. Newell Dwight 
Hillis, Colgate Hoyt, Ernest Thompson Seton, 
Dr. Frederick A. Cook, James K. flackett and 
Dan Beard. 
This year any man less than sixty years old 
who can master the snowshoe in an hour’s re¬ 
hearsal will be welcomed. The hunters will 
leave New York and Boston on Jan. 16, and a 
few days later will • put Kippawa behind them. 
“We do not promise a wolf to everybody,” 
says the prospectus, “because the fox is a dunce: 
in the great school of woodcraft as compared 
with the wolf, but wolves are being shot there: 
now, and our hopes are high.” 
Each hunter is requested to bring $iio witlr 
him. He will be handed in return two- pairs; 
of ten pound blankets, one axe, a holster for; 
the same, a sheath knife and a holster for it, 
arctic mittens that can be hung around the neck,, 
snowshoeing coat, Eskimo dickey, buckskin moc-' 
casins, sweater, oil tan moccasins for use in a 
thaw, five pairs of woolen socks, woolen helmet 1 
with wind guard and ammunition. 
Several from Chicago will accompany the ex-' 
pedition. Boston will send others, but the woods-; 
men of New York will supply most of the hun¬ 
ters. 
Mr. Armstrong, whose printed eulogy of the; 
delights of stalking the timber wolf is so allur- 1 
ingly written that it would tempt almost any 
apartment dweller from his radiator to the heavy 1 
canvas tent with the fire inside, is attached tc- 
the Canadian Railway Company, at Montreal, 
and will leave that city for the wolf-environed 
town of Kippawa, with the rest of the hunters! 
Good luck. 
In the Lodges of the Blackfeel 
which was published serially in Forest ani 
Stream as by W. B. Anderson, has beea issuer 
over the author’s true name, J. W. Schultz, anc 
under the new title 
Ny Life As Ai\ Indian 
The story is one of the most faithful picture: 
of human life ever drawn. It tells of the lif< 
of the plains Indian in the old days, when buf 
falo hunting and journeys to war were the oc 
cupations of every man. It describes the ever; 
day life of the great camp, tells how the mei 
and women passed their time, how the younf 
men gambled, how they courted their sweet 
hearts, how the traders imposed on the Indians 
and how the different tribes fought together 
The one central figure of the book is 
Nat-ah'-ki, 
the beautiful Indian girl who became th 
author’s wife. 
But it is needless to describe this book ti 
readers of Forest and Stream. Those wh 
read it as a serial will surely want the volume o: 
the T library shelves. Price, $1.65, postpaid.
