PUBLISHERS’ DEPARTMENT. 
Messrs. William Mills & Son, 21 Park Place, New 
York, have issued a profusely illustrated catalogue of 
voluminous proportions, in which is enumerated every 
useful appliance needed by anglers. This firm takes 
pride in handling the highest grade of goods, and also 
the best medium goods at popular prices. Specially 
ample is their stock of fine rods, reels, flies, lines, etc., 
in endless variety of sizes, material and style of manu- 
facture, from the delicate tackle required for the gamy 
trout up to the powerful tackle used to conquer the 
giant tarpon. In short, one full page of the 144 is 
devoted to an index of the articles handled by this long- 
established firm, in which will be found a mention of any 
article the angler or fisherman may need. 
Specially pleasing is the prediction, made in the Boston 
and Maine Messenger, published by the Boston & Maine 
Railroad, that there is going to be an early spring open- 
ing in Maine fishing this year. The mild winter has 
resulted in a relatively light accumulation of ice, hence 
the clearing of the lakes and rivers of it will begin earlier 
and finish sooner than common this year. The Mes- 
senger is handsomely illustrated and contains much 
practical information to the angler concerning fishing 
waters. . 

Although really a good while ago, it seems but a few 
years since we saw the first steel fishing rod. About 
the same time we used to see the Japanese wooaen 
telescoping rods. Lately, however, the steel rod and 
the telescoping feature has been brought together by 
the Fischer & Tesch Mfg. Co., of 52 No. Canal street, 
Chicago, IIll., who declare that it is the strongest and 
most durable steel rod made, while its finish and work- 
manship are not equalled in any other rod. It is easy 
to understand how such a rod would possess a number 
of advantages. 

The product of the Pioneer Boat & Pattern Co., of 
Bay City, Mich., will appeal very strongly to that large 
class of boat users who like to build their own craft. 
There are a multitude of people interested in sport on 
the water to whom economy is -an object, and another 
multitude, perhaps quite as large, who wish to feel that 
they have put something of themselves into their boat. 
Both these classes will wish to know about the patterns 
shown by this company, and it should be worth while 
to correspond with them. 
Messrs. Abercrombie & Fitch are well known to 
campers and to sportsmen generally, not only on account 
of their large outfitting establishment at 57 Reade street, 
but also because they usually have a large space at the 
Sportsman’s Exposition. At this particular time, be- 
sides their general business of outfitting explorers, 
campers, prospectors, and hunters, they call particular 
attention to their fishing tackle and to their rods and 
lines. Of these they have a great assortment, which 
ought to be seen to be appreciated, but all of which are 
enumerated in their catalogue. 

Many of the people who are now preparing to go to 
the Maine woods for the trout fishing, will travel over 
the Bangor & Aroostook R. R. To most of them this is 
a familiar journey, but even the most hardened visitor to 
Maine cannot fail to find something that is new and 
interesting in the B. & A. book, entitled “In The Maine 
Woods.” It has 192 pages and 133 fine half-tone illus- 
trations. The book will be sent on application to the 
General Passenger Agent for Guide Book 17, Bangor, Me. 
The Jarvis Fishing Coat, to wear with waders, is a con- 
venient garment, and it is a wonder that no one ever 
thought of it before. The man who wades the brooks 
and streams is pretty sure to get the lower part of his 
coat wet, and of course everything that he carries in 
his pockets. This inconvenience is avoided by using 
the Jarvis Coat, which is short and light, and yet has 
abundant pocket room. 
Of making many lures there is no end, and now ap- 
pears the Vim Co., of 68 Lake street, Chicago, IIl., with 
a wood minnow, painted to the life and warranted to 
catch the fish if properly used. The price asked for 
this device is very small, and bass anglers should cer- 
tainly try it. 
Persons who wish to purchase army goods of any 
sort which have been sold at auction can procure them 
at very modest prices of Francis Bannerman, 501 Broad- 
way, New York. The stock includes firearms, saddles, 
swords, bayonets, clothing of different sorts, and many 
other articles. Mr, Bannerman’s catalogue describes 
these things. 
The name of Fred Sauter is one long known to New 
York sportsmen, in many of whose houses are found 
admirable examples of his work. Mr. Sauter, who used 
to be at 38 North William street—an ancient center for 
taxidermists—is about to move to 42 Bleecker street, 
corner of Elm street. . 
Fer many years Peter Henderson has been a name to 
conjure with by gardners and country dwellers. Hen- 
derson’s seeds and Henderson’s catalogues are known 
throughout the length and breadth of the land. In this 
issue the Peter Henderson Company calls attention to 
their lawn grass seed, which they tell us makes a perfect 
lawn in six weeks.
