. The complete American and Canadian sportsman's encyclopedia of valuable instruction. Camping; Fishing; Hunting. u If you can secure an owl fasten it to some spot frequented by birds, and a short distance away smear the limbs or twigs with bird lime. When the owl which is the most detested enemy of all birds is found, it will attract a veritable swarm of birds to that vicinity, when they will be caught by the quicklime that surrounds the captured owl. An Indian Method in Winter—Of killing wild game, wolves, bears, etc. is to take a piece of flex- ible steel or whalebone, anything that has a bend to it, and bend it into as small a circle as possible, seciiring it with the sinews of the deer, this they in- sert in a ball of meat, flesh, fat and blood and al- low the whole ball, (not a large one) to freeze. A number of these they throw out on the snow or ice, about the haunts of the animals; coming along they find them and being hungry, ravenously devour or swallow them, on account of their being hard and frozen. The heat of the stomach soon melts the frozen parts of flesh and sinews, when the spring coil straightens out piercing the stomach, causing agony, and death which in due time ensues, and by following the trail of i\\e animal they invariably find them, perhaps locating others besides. In the Arctic regions where the writer spent over three years living constantly with various tribes of Esquimos, I have often assisted in the preparation of these killing balls, and witnessed their fearful results.
