When Do We Eat? 
The American Kampkook makes the tourist- 
camper independent of hotels. The great free 
outdoors becomes your dining room; your 
table is set in any cool, shady spot where you 
choose to stop. Kampkooking means that 
meal time is governed by your appetite and 
your own convenience—not by the clock.

THE IDEAL. CAMP STOVE 
The motor tourist’s and camper’s best friend. Always 
ready; set up and going full blast in less time than it 
takes to gather fuel for a wood campfire. Makes its 
own gas from the same common roadside gasoline you 
use in your car and burns a clear hot blue flame free 
from smoke, soot or odor. Simple, wind-proof, always 
works, safe anywhere. Six styles; two and three-burner 
sizes $7.50 to $15.60. Be sure to get the original and 
genuine American Kampkook; it is easily identified by 
the name plate. At dealers everywhere.

Regular and Featherweight Models 
All grades of SMITH double barrel, 12 gauge guns are made in both Regular and 
Featherweight models. This makes it possible to furnish a perfectly balanced gun 
weights ranging from 6% to 8% lbs. , _ . , , . 
The frame of the Featherweight model is shorter than the Regular frame and the lug is 
narrower thus eliminating weight, and giving the same perfect proportions in the light-weight 
guns, which the Regular frame gives in the heavier weights. 
The Regular and Featherweight models are of equal strength. 
This all-important feature is unique with the SMITH as all other makes are furnished 
on the same frame, regardless of weight.

In writing to Advertisers mention Forest and Stream. It will identify you. 
make note of each and everything the 
car should contain. Of these, easy-rid¬ 
ing', (good, comfortable seats), the 
sleeping arrangements, cooking and 
eating, and floor space for the house- 
worker’s activities are the prime requi¬ 
sites. And, of course, storage and 
packing space for everything carried. 
A cabin car for touring is an ideal 
arrangement, no question about it. The 
architect should know touring, however, 
throughout all its details, and in all 
the regions of the land, from the hot 
and muggy coastal plains to the arid 
Trans-Rocky plateaus, if perfection is 
to be had. There must be compromise 
between ample headroom, and Kansas 
wind storms, between fragile windows 
and light, air and view. 
Probably a house-car is hardly worth 
bothering with, except for some such 
undertaking as the double-transconti¬ 
nental, or a months’ long journeys un¬ 
der camping conditions into any part 
of the country. One can sleep in any 
five-passenger touring car, and a lean- 
to tent will serve alongside. 
Generally speaking, summer weather 
anywhere west of the Missouri will 
never require one to go into shelter, if 
ample blankets and tarpaulins are pro¬ 
vided. A cabin car will not take the 
place of a bunglow or a shack on the 
California Coast, nor will it serve one 
as a winter home in the south or south¬ 
west. No car would serve to carry a 
cabin large enough for a family. I 
dare say, however, that honeymooners, 
or any happy couple, could live on the 
trails for months in a cabin car more 
comfortably than in any other touring 
arrangement, especially if a small 
wall-tent was carried for the longer or 
shorter stays during the sight-seeing 
or weather-waiting times. 
Two or three parties, traveling to¬ 
gether, using a cabin car as “head¬ 
quarters” might well find its conveni¬ 
ences worth the difficulties. The sub¬ 
ject is one of those in which everything 
depends of the conditions, the people, 
the objects sought, the question of 
economies, comforts, etc. The cost of 
a house-car must vary according to 
who builds it, and all the materials 
used; a friend of mine built too heavy 
a cabin on a light car. He made the 
transcontinental in it, however, and 
many a night rejoiced in the ease and 
comfort of a camp already made, while 
the rest of us pitched our tents and set 
up our cots or running-board beds. 
A study of cabin-car requirements, 
camping conditions, touring outfits, re¬ 
gional characteristics to be met—all 
these efforts to arrive at a satisfactory 
solution of problems will help every one 
who contemplates any kind of auto¬ 
mobile, or for that matter, any kind 
of traveling under out-door conditions.
