Try this way of Z a remanent repair that puts strength back where you need it, yet doesn't appreciably alter the casting action of the rod. Take the . tip to a hard ware store and buy a drill bit " t II Woodland Dress Shoppc Hertford, N. C that is exactly the : size to fit snugly inside the broken tube. Now soak the two broken seo; tions and the bit with' epoxy glue and slip the parts together. End of problem. ' DON'T THROW AWAY .. LEAKY PQOTS Before you donate your leaky old boots to the trash man, con sider cutting the feet off and. using the ' legs as waterproof hunting leggins., On rainy days, you'll be glad to haye, something that shuttles the water past, ra ther than down, your hunting shoes.

DECOYS BY THE ' COTTON SACK Sacks the cotton pickers use we are informed make the. absolute ultimate in things to carry decoys in. Sacks are light; easily folded and hold enough I decoys to make two bunches at either end of the sack. Middle part goes over your shoulder for easy carrying. ROD WINDING This tip isn't much use if you are merely going to dress up a guide or two with new windings; But if this winter you are go- ing to get serious about refinish- mg a new rod. it might be worth investigating your wife's sewing machine. We think . you'll find there that the tension attach ment for the thread spool will be exactly he - right ' thing to keep rod winding' thread- under light but steady pressure" ; And if you cin't rig 'a turning plat form out of some inexpensive wheels, we'll,, be mighty sur prised. ' FISHING IN -THE RAIN Z So maybe you don't feature fishing in the rain. But plenty of guys do and under certain, dry conditions the release ' of new oxygen into lakes and streams from falling rain sends fish prowling. ; BUT spin- fishermen can be bothered by whispy moa ofilament sticking to . the wet rod surface.

And seldom brings all of them up to their full physical poten tialities. ' y " . -' - -, Some hound owners try to get their .hounds in- good condition by allowing them freedom ' to roam the countryside; ' This is seldom satisfactory,- according to Henry , p. Davis, Sporting Dogs Editor of Sports Afield Maga zine. Some will run trails until they are paper-thin, " Others will take iiX easy and ,develop J the , habit11 of loafing.' It' may be al-. most necessary for the fox hunt. er to give each hound the same amount of work, but if he; is kwise, he will carefully supervise the feeding of each hound .and thai he gets .' the. - proper more. Fox hunting is probably the ; most ; physically demanding effort ' among sporting dogs., Wherever1 the trails lead, the hound must go. The nature of the terrain almost always slows him down, tmd he does not trav el, with the speed of the search ing bjrd dog But how many i bird dogs can go' six, eight., ten I hours at' a hunting or trailing pare? . "V ."A lean dog for a., long race" is ;an; old saying that is often- a pod guide lme, but it isnjt irt iaiimie. starvation or under feeding certainly will not gt the job done. The dog that can usu ally - turn,, in the best hunting performance is the one that 'has, through regular and proper exer, cise, . been - brought . ton "lean" condition', by turning his I excess amount of -nourishmenf and no) fat into good, hard tnuscles. . .; - fir your f.. snj cooperation h '.. extend to you mc;t l : im&wmi 5KCERE w?
