The Cougar that Meant 
Business 
(Continued from page 551) 
when the smoke cleared away, I saw 
him struggling on the ground not ten 
feet from my face. The bullet had en- 
tered his breast and thus ended the 
career of the only panther I ever had 
to kill in self-defense. 
“TI found my bear dog nearby, and, 
from the looks of the poor fellow, he 
had given up his life dearly. Just 
why I never heard the noise has al- 
ways been a mystery to me, unless, be- 
ing so worn out, I was dead tired. 
“T placed my faithful dog in the 
ditch where I had spent the night and 
covered him up the best I could, and 
then I headed for camp with a sad 
heart, pondering on the loss of my 
once faithful companion.” 
Possibilities of the .410 Bore 
Shotgun 
(Continued from page 530) 
“big shot’—the biggest he can get— 
and is given No. 4 (around 48 pellets 
to the charge) with which very few 
guns will pattern sufficiently closely 
to kill a rabbit beyond 30 yards. Of 
course many rabbits are shot under 
30 yards, and perhaps that is the an- 
swer as to why the No. 4 shot. 
In all the high class 410 bore car- 
tridges, the shot is as uniform in size, 
and as spherical and as highly pol- 
ished as the shot in the larger gauges. 
The Ruffed Grouse Dog 
(Continued from page 528) 
have lost about twenty-five per cent. 
of bone and substance, have become 
extremely nervous and _ difficult to 
handle. They are racing, ranging ma- 
chines with an intense instinctive desire 
to hunt bevies of quail. It is difficult 
to work them on single birds, and un- 
less the country is open it is hard work 
to keep them on the course. Their in- 
stincts have been sharpened but their 
intelligence has been dulled. 
T were well for the cover dog sports- 
men to take a lesson from the breed- 
ing of the modern field trial setter. 
Their ancestors were large, handsome, 
intelligent, useful dogs, and many of 
the good qualities that have been lost 
might have been preserved by a com- 
munity effort. 
Briefly, the creating and maintaining 
of a cover setter is largely a matter of 
community effort under the control of 
a properly organized body. It is the 
breeding plan that is responsible for 
our most typical breeds of cattle, and 
sheep. It will work as well with the 
setter. 
It will identify you. 
Hunting Big Game in the 
Nipigon Country 
(Continued from page 517) i 
minutes from a placid riffle to a dan- 
gerously rolling sea. As we rounded, 
the point into the open lake and got — 
the full sweep of the wind, I realized 
why our outfitter had equipped us with 
125-pound freight canoes. No smaller 
canoe could have lived in the sea we 
struck, 
HE waves were rolling three feet 
high, and dashing on the rocky 
shore throwing the spray high in the 
air. Looking at the tumbling waves I 
could not possibly see how we could 
ever cross this open stretch between the 
two islands. However, Joe said noth- 
ing and kept on paddling, so I was 
game to try it as long as he was. Joe 
swung the canoe head-on to the waves 
and we paddled with all our strength, 
To have gotten sidewise in the trough 
of the waves would have meant an 
instant upset. We shipped water con- 
stantly and were soon drenched with 
spray and rain. It seemed we were 
hardly moving, although we _ were 
straining every muscle. At times as 
the canoe would drop head-on into a 
big trough I could not see the land. 
The wind was so strong that it would 
literally snatch the top off some of the 
waves, carrying the sheet of water 
ahead a hundred feet over the hissing 
white caps. It took us two hours of 
the hardest paddling to make the other 
island. 
Nie landed in a grassy bay and 
turned the canoe over our duffle. 
Fresh moose signs were plentiful but 
we could find no caribou tracks. We 
took to the bush again, hunting up a 
steep mountain-side where Joe thought 
there should be good feed for caribou. 
After three hours in the pouring rain 
we gave it up and returned to the 
canoe. Soon we had a hot fire going 
under some thick cedars that kept off 
the worst of the driving rain. A cup 
of strong tea and some wet bannock 
cheered us up, and at about three o’clock 
we started out again in the canoe. The 
storm had increased in fury and we. 
hugged the shore as much as possible. 
We paddled on to another island, where | 
we landed, determized to make camp, 
as we were both wet and chilled 
through. After some searching we 
found a big rock in a clump of small 
spruces and here we built a big fire. 
E carried the canoe from the lake 
and turned it over, a short way 
from the fire, and prepared for a bad 
night in the bush. As night advanced 
the storm increased, and when we 
crawled between wet blankets on equal- 
ly wet boughs, it was snowing and 4
