years the leader in coursing east of the
ROCKY mountains, ana has several times
visited this coast to run his hounds
against California stock.

interest owing to the quality Of the dogs

hares from the Merced plains have recently
been received. Lord Clifton, Electric
Yreka, Mission Boy and Dublin Stout are
among the entries.
