TOURING WITH 
RAYMOND SPEARS 
(Continued from page 240) 
in some Western states where the rabbit 
hunter would be at once welcome and 
ridiculous — who’d hunt rabbits for sport? 
Personally, I think the jackrabbit is 
good sport and so do thousands of men 
in the jackrabbit country, but these 
brutes arc an unprotected nuisance, 
especially in regions where the coyotes, 
wolves and other rabbit eaters have been 
poisoned. I’ve seen a score of these 
jackrabbits in a patch of alfalfa as we 
rolled along a trail; shooting them would 
i be a favor to the rancher—but permission 
is best sought in all cases. 
Fishing, is available more than shoot¬ 
ing, that is, successful fishing. Fishing 
license laws are spreading into the game 
fish states. One may drive down a side 
road into a lake or riverside and perhaps 
catch a mess of game fish. But the 
| scandal of the introduction of egg-eating 
grubbers, like the sucking carps, into the' 
» waters where they destroy the black bass 
and trout as first reported by Robert 
Page Lincoln, and the polution of the 
country’s streams is restricting the fish¬ 
ing waters in a way to make old-timers 
hang up their rods in disgust. But this 
is only one of the things that will make 
the hunting and fishing tourist have the 
heartache. And he cannot in honor, be¬ 
cause of his conscience, do a single thing 
that will add to the burden now carried 
by the game and fish resources of the 
country. 
VY^HAT shall a tourist put into his 
’ ’ outfit for forest and stream sports ? 
Of fire-arms, I think the 22-caliber 
weapons may well be considered. That 
little 22 caliber automatic, advertised by 
Reising, or the Colt’s 22, or one of the 
Smith & Wesson, Stevens or Iver John¬ 
son target pistols, shooting rim fire'cart¬ 
ridges are sidepocket or holster weapons 
with potentials of much sport. Then 
there is the long list of 22 caliber rifles, 
shorts, long rifle, automatic, and specials. 
A 22 caliber special rifle will serve to 
peck away at a coyote, wildcat, rac¬ 
coon, or the like, as well as to take the 
nuisance rabbits, woodchucks and the 
other wayside small game. 
I have seen a few head of big game 
shot from automobiles, but I doubt "if as 
a rule it is worth while to carry big 
game weapons for the slight chance one 
has of seeing such brutes as the cougar, 
bear,, or grey wolves. Certainly, if a 
man is going into big game country, any 
expectation of shooting deer, or the like, 
must be preceded by the hunting license, 
and no one is apt to have a chance at 
big game anywhere, now, unless he 
makes a real hunt of it, and the tour 
becomes a shooting expedition — a sub¬ 
ject somewhat outside of a touring 
article’s scope.

FOR 
Thousands of tourists have dis¬ 
covered that it is far more con¬ 
venient to carry a "Jiffy” outfit on 
the running board than to burden 
themselves with a lot of unneces¬ 
sary poles, mattresses, and other 
artmles, or to drag along a trailer 
that draws heavy on the gas and 
causes accidents. The "Jiffy” in¬ 
cludes a thoroughly waterproof 
and insect-proof tent, size 9' 6"x7' 
and 2 beds for 4 people, while the 
steel box containing the outfit can 
be converted into a substantial 
table, 24x48". No stakes, poles, 
tools are required with a 
Jiffy. It can be set up in the 
dark, in 10 minutes. Weight less 
than I 00 lbs. 
DEALERS: Jiffy ’ sales are 
quick sales. "Jiffy” profits are 
real profits. It will pay you to get 
details early.
