corkscrew. Sometimes they gave him 
something a great deal stronger, and 
it was amusing to see him when under 
the influence of liquor. In attempting 
to climb the post in the yard, he would 
stand four feet or more from it and 
keep reaching out for it till he fell 
over backward. 
One day a river driver gave the 
bear his bottle to take a drink, but as 
Bruin evidently intended to drink it 
all, the man made a grab for it and 
received a slap from the bear’s paw 
that sent him end over end. 
Another day, a bull was being led 
past by two butchers, one on each side, 
with ropes through a ring in his nose. 
When opposite the barracks gate, the 
bull saw the bear and made a charge 
for it, clearing himself of the two 
men. The bear, taken unawares, was 
knocked over by the bull. He picked 
himself up and rushed for the post. 
He didn’t have time to climb it, but 
stepped behind it and struck the bull, 
knocking him down and stunning him. 
The men succeeded in getting ropes 
on him and led him away. The bear 
never got over that racket. He got 
very ugly and dangerous and a short 
time after they had to shoot him. 
New Films Show How Game 
Fish Are Reared 
NTERESTING moving picture 
studies of fish culture as practiced 
at the New Jersey state fish hatchery, 
at Hackettstown, one of the largest 
and most succesful institutions of its 
kind in the world, have been completed 
for nation-wide exhibition by a firm 
of famous producers. The films, ar- 
ranged with the assistance of Super- 
intendent Charles O. Hayford, tell the 
story of the rearing of 100,000,000 or 
more game fish annually for restock- 
ing New Jersey streams. They follow 
an earlier set that attracted much in- 
terest when shown in many cities and 
the new reels are said to be still more 
entertaining. 
Arrangements can be made for ex- 
hibition of the new films by schools, 
churches, clubs and other organiza- 
tions, to whom the commission will 
loan the films, without cost. Appli- 
cation can be made through county 
wardens or directly to the commission. 
Reels showing pictures of wild game 
and game-farming in New Jersey also 
are available under the same _ con- 
ditions.

Spaniel Puppies and Their 
Training 
(Continued from page 30) 
is moving—and is very useful for direct- 
ing puppies seeking a hidden dummy. 
It is first taught on the check line, and 
is distinct from “come in” (except when 
that command is given to a puppy di- 
rectly in front of his handler). Here 
the handler will require to shorten his 
check line as he gives the command, and 
also to shift his position rapidly in or- 
der tc secure something like a real re- 
versal of the direction in which the 
dog is proceeding. 
Keeping to Heel—The command is 
“heel,” and it is never given unless the 
puppy is close to the handler. The first 
stage of all can be taught on lead. Se- 
lecting a moment when the puppy is in 
front of him the handler gives the com- 
mand “heel” and at the same time 
draws the puppy back, shortens the 
lead and holds it in both hands behind 
his back, continually drawing the puppy 
into the correct position behind. When 
the puppy voluntarily answers to this 
command on lead, he can be given the 
same lesson at liberty, in the first in- 
stance preferably alongside a wall of 
some length, while his handler uses the 
pressure of a small switch or stick to 
prevent him from boring out. In the 
final stage the handler will carry a 
small switch in either hand to keep his 
charge in the narrow path, until the 
lesson is learned. This lesson is best 
taught in a strange place, as then the 
puppy is less anxious to lag behind. 
“No.’—It is at times necessary to in- 
dicate to a puppy that what he is doing 
does not meet with approval, as e.g. 
when at liberty he noses rabbit holes, 
or proceeds out of bounds. The simple 
negative is very soon understood by 
puppies of all ages. 
Not So Bad 
(Continued from page 17) 
When this subject was reached all eyes 
were turned toward Jules. 
Jules is without doubt the best duck 
caller in the country. He even admits 
it himself. And he does his calling 
without the aid of any artificial contri- 
vance. His imitation of the different 
calls never fails to arouse the interest 
of his auditors. But Jules has a cousin 
who is nearly as competent as he is, 
and out of family pride Jules is always 
ready to admit it. 
UST as one of these imitations was 
being given, Sam, the colored boy 
who looks after the boats, decoys, etc., 
pushed his face through the doorway 
and stood with glistening eyes and a 
wide smile. He loved to hear these 
imitations, but could not do them him- 
self. One of the members made the
