One of the essential requirements of the Boy Scout training is a KNOWLEDGE OF WOODCRAFT. This necessitates a book embracing all the subjects and treating on all the topics that a thorough knowledge of WOODCRAFT implies. This book thoroughly exhausts the subject. It imparts a comprehensive knowledge of woods from fungus growth to the most stately monarch of the forest; it treats of the habits and lairs of all the feathered and furry inhabitants of the woods. Shows how to trail wild animals; how to identify birds and beasts by their tracks, calls, etc. Tells how to forecast the weather, and in fact; treats on every phase of nature with which a Boy Scout or any woodman or lover of nature should be familiar. The authorship guarantees it's authenticity and reliability. Indispensable to "Boy Scouts" and others. Printed from large clear type on superior paper. Embellished With Over 100 Thumb Nail Illustrations Taken From Life Bound in Cloth. Stamped with unique and appropriate designs in ink! Price, 75c Postpaid M. A. DONOHUE & CO. 701-727 S. DEARBORN ST.
