OU know ruffed grouse—monarchs of the up- 
A lands. You'know, also, that a crippled ruffed 
grouse has a trick or two for evading the game bag. 
The only ruffed grouse you can show for a day in 
the bush—unless your dog is a gix d one and your 
luck is unusual—are the birds you got by good 
clean kills. 
There is nothing so conducive to cuss words as 
searching for crippled birds. Men who shoot 
Lefever guns don’t know what it is to waste time 
fruitlessly chasing cripples—they pick up their birds 
dead and hurry after fresh game. 
Any man who has swung a Lefever true on a 
rocketing pair of upland kings does not wonder at 
the result—he banks on it— 
Two Clean Kills 
The reason Lefever guns kill clean and sure and 
far is Lefever Taper Boring- 
But Taper Boring is only one of the 19 exclusive 
advantages. 
Lefever Shot Guns 
have over other makes, which aie fullv explained in 
our new catalogue. Study them while you are get¬ 
ting Lefever wise. You need a copy. Write to-day.

fish, and the loss on the lot during the hatching 
period was but 4 per cent. The alevins hatched 
were strong and healthy, and later turned out a 
robust lot of fry, the loss being less than 5 per 
cent, during the next four months. 
During May and June, 1907, 270,000 brook 
trout eggs were collected at the Nahuel Huapi 
hatchery. They were hatched with an average 
loss of 15 per cent. On June 21, 140,000 of these 
eggs were eyed and started down the Rio Limay 
to Neuquen in a small boat, and brought from 
Neuquen to La Cumbre, in the Province of 
Cordoba, via Buenos Aires, by rail. They 
arrived at the La Cumbre hatchery July 7, with 
a loss en route of 2 per cent., and were hatched 
with a further loss of 4 per cent. The fry loss 
was not large, not taking into account the kill¬ 
ing of a large number by accident. Plants of 
fry were made during the latter part of August 
and all of September, in various bodies of water 
in the provinces of Cordoba, Buenos Aires, 
Tucuman, Salta and San Luis. 
From what we have accomplished with the 
brook trout at Nahuel Huapi and La Cumbre, 
I am led to believe that, by gradually breeding 
them up to it over a period of two or three 
years, these fish can be successfully reared in 
very warm water. 
The second shipment of eggs of American 
fishes to the Argentine Republic resulted rather 
disastrously. One of the superintendents of this 
section left New York early in June, 1904, wifh 20,- 
000 eggs of steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri ) and 
50.000 rainbow trout (Salmo irideus ) eggs. Off 
the coast of Brazil the steelhead eggs com¬ 
menced hatching rapidlv and before reaching 
Rio Janeiro these had all to be put overboard. 
The rainbow trout eggs carried very badly, and 
nearly all were lost by July 23. On this date
