journey along the checkered trail that leads to the cov- 
eted goal of every marksman, namely, the possible. We 
wish him bon voyage. A strong to 9 o’clock wind 
blew in gusts all day. The scores:

The following scores were made in regular competition 
by members of this Association, at Four-Mile House, 
Reading Road, April 8. Conditions: 200yds., offhand, 
at the Standard target. Odell was champion for the day 
with a score of 89 points. Hofer was high man on the 
honor target with 26 points; his score of 88 establishes a 
new record for himself, and he was very much pleased 
by this oczurrence. 
The semi-annual individual championship 100-shot match 
was shot to-day and was won by Mr. Odell, with a 
score of 839 points. It is needless to add that he was 
very much elated over his victory. He is one of our 
youngest shooters, and he feels “very much prouded.”’ 
He used a 6-power telescope, mounted on a .32-40 barrel. 
We hope to see him reach the 900 mark soon. The

Ohio Rifle Notes. 
On April 25, Adjt-Gen. Hughes clinched bargains with 
nine farmers owning the land at Port Clinton, which the 
State will convert into a State camp ground and rifle 
range. The tract contains 327 acres lying on the lake 
shore, about five miles northwest of Port Clinton, and 
was purchased for $21,400. Over $3,000 of the appropria- 
tion remains, and will be available for improvements. 
In order to provide the 1000-yard range, it will be neces- 
sary to close a road, and this will be done at once. 
The State Officers’ Association has bought thirty acres 
adjoining and lying on the front, and will erect a club 
house. 
On April 28, Less Leiber and Joe Hoover shot for the 
Englewood Rifle Club’s medal, at 100yds., offhand, Ameri- 
can target, center counting 12, possible 48. Leiber won 
with 42 to 31. In three specials, same conditions, Leiber 
won two with 37 and 39 to 33 and 23; Hoover one with 
43 to 33. In the sixteen shots, possible 192, Leiber gor 
151, to Hoover’s 122, . 
In the practice shoot of the members of the Coving- 
ton, Ky., police, some excellent scores were made. The 
shooting was at 45ft., 5 shots, possible 50. Brake was 
high with 48, Brady 47, Schmeing and Mosbacher 46 each. 
Forty-five men took part, the scores ranging from 48 
eons to 7, the lowest. The range will be at 60 instead of

PUBLISHERS’ DEPARTMENT. 
Of manufactured beverages in these United States, 
there is perhaps none that has a reputation better or 
longer established than the famed Evans’ Ale. To a 
large proportion of the readers of ForEsST AND STREAM 
it is already familiar as a health-giving beverage, and it 
should be well known to all. Any dealer will supply it. 
Among the good things which campers take with them 
into the woods, and which housewives delight to keep 
in their homes, none is better than Underwood’s Deviled 
Ham, advertised in another column. It is toothsome, 
nourishing, and best of all, always ready. The Wm. 
Underwood Co., of Boston, Mass., who manufacture this 
delicacy, send out a new cook book free to applicants. 
Many men will agree with us that of all the good 
things that life has to offer, there is nothing that brings 
so much comfort as good tobacco. French’s Mixture, 
defined as the aristocrat of smoking tobaccos, is spoken 
of as rich, fragrant, mild and never biting the tongue. 
Such a description may well tempt one to try it, 
especially as the cost of a sample is only ten cents, sent 
to Department D, French Tobacco Co., Sistersville, N.C. 
The New York Sporting Goods Company is prepared 
to furnish outfits to anglers at prices which are astonish- 
ingly reasonable, and it is worth the while of every 
man who has not yet completed his spring angling out- 
fit, or: who proposes to fit out his boy for the summer 
fishing, to write to the company for their catalogue No. 
363, which contains a long list of the bargains that this 
company has to offer. 
It is only within a very few years that anything has 
‘been known about the propagation of the small-mouthed 
bass; but recently it has been demonstrated that these 
‘fish can be produced, reared and delivered with success. 
It takes a load off the mind of the newspaper. editor 
to be able to answer the inquiries of a multitude of 
people, who want to know where black bass fry can 
be had, by recommending them to the Waramaug Small- 
Mouth Black Bass Hatchery, managed by Mr. Henry W. 
. Beeman, of New Preston, Conn., who will answer all 
inquiries and send circulars to applicants. 




Small-Mouth Black Bass Successfully Propagated! 

During recent years dis- 
couraging results have fol- 
lowed repeated attempts to 
propagate the smallI- 
mouthed black bass. 
We have demonstrated 
that these fish can be pro- 
duced and delivered 
with a remarkable degree of 
success. We have the only

FISHING AND HUNTING 
Valuable Territory to he Leased. 
The Minister of Colonization, Mines and Fisheries of 
the Province of Quebec offers for lease a valuable group 
of lakes in the township and county of Matane, includinz 
Lakes Malfait, Grand Lake Petchedef, Petit Petchedef. 
Lac Rond, Lac Chaud, and Lac aux Foins. These lakes 
are easy of access by a road twelve miles long from the 
village of Matane and also from Sayabee Station on the 
Intercolonial Railway of Canada. 
Dr. Bouillon, Government fish and game warden at 
Matane, reports: ‘‘This is, in my opinion, and in that of 
hunters whom I know, the finest sporting country that it 
is possible to desire. This group of lakes is abundantly 
stocked with river, lake and gray trout; deer are in 
great abundance, and moose are remarkably plentiful. 
Mink, otter and Canada lynx abound.”
