 Grinnell ; Notes from the Diary of a Naturalist in Northern California by 

 J. F. Ferry ; with many interesting notes of field observation complete a very 

 valuable issue. One of these may interest our readers : " Is the Mountain 

 Bluebird Resident at High Altitudes ?— During the latter part of February 

 and early March of this year (1907), Stall's arctia * was very numerous in 

 and about Flagstaff, Arizona, altitude 6,800 ft. ; in fact the commonest bird. 

 The period covers the coldest weather for that locality. And as this bird is 

 a known breeder in Northern Arizona (San Francisco Mountains), can we 

 not infer that they are resident in that zone ? Austin P. Smith, Benson, 

 Arizona."

Pair of GouiyDiAN Finches. (W. T. Rogers). Both had jaundice, in all 

 probability due to a chill. I think putting them into a cage just 

 freshly distempered with Hall's patent Sanitary Distemper was a mere 

 coincidence.
