To the Fisherman Who Knows: 
Fishing rods may be bought from 75c. to $30.00, the first price 
being too low to expect any real worth and the latter price repre¬ 
senting a fictitious value. Many pay $30.00, however, for fear they 
won’t get the best, and the object of this advertisement is to request 
the privilege of showing 
THE ORVIS FLY ROD AT $15.00 
A better rod cannot be had, no matter what price you pay, and if 
you want the same quality with not quite so fine a finish and heavier 
by perhaps an ounce, the $10.00 " Orvis ” is recommer led. We 
sell other good rods at $5.00, or even less, and fair q r ods at 
$1.00. So, fisherman, no matter what the size of yo -tbook, 
you will receive good value here.

The “Forest and Stream” 
TRAP SCORE BOOK 
meets the needs of gun clubs and shooters in every par¬ 
ticular. The 150 sheets are heavily ruled—an advantage 
all scorers will appreciate, particularly when working in 
a dim light. The horizontal spaces are numbered from 
1 to 30. Broad perpendicular lines divide these into 
groups of six; thus the squads are distinguished at a 
glance. 
The paper manifolds easily, and carbon sheets are 
placed in the book for that purpose. 
It contains the American Shooting Association Rule 
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. 
FOREST AND STREAM PUBLISHING CO. 
Attention! 
The Greener Monarch Ejector is the most popular gun 
that Mr. Greener makes and costs $200 net. 
We keep a very large and varied stock of this grade, from 
the little 28 gauge, weighing from to 4/4 lbs., to the 
heavy 8 bores, weighing 15 to 16 lbs., and we have one double 
4 bore weighing 22 lbs. 
For field shooting the most popular gun in America is the 
miniature Monarch Greener, 12 bore, weighing 5)4 to 6 lbs. 
Hundreds upon hundreds of these little guns are in use and 
each year we sell an increasing number. 
They are made with the same care and attention to detail 
as the pigeon guns, and whether they are bored extreme full 
choke or the open "Improved Cylinder," the main fact is 
never lost sight of that the pattern must be even and regularly 
distributed. 
We also have a well assorted stock of 16 and 20 gauge 
Monarch field guns. 
We take second-hand guns in trade and at this time of 
year can make more favorable terms than after the season 
opens. We shall be glad to correspond with 
any one interested.
