WITH OUR AFFILIATED SOCIETIES 



The issue of a BuUetin has also been 

 begun by the New Hampshire Audubon 

 Society, under the active leadership of the 

 Rev. Manley B. Townsend, at Nashua. 

 This will be published irregularly, and, to 

 judge by the initial number, will be a 

 series of instructive leaflets rather than 

 a news-sheet. The first issue gives admir- 

 able advice on feeding birds in winter, 

 peculiarly adapted to circumstances in 

 that snowy state. It is neatly printed and 

 prettily illustrated. 



The societies affiliated with this Associa- 

 tion are well aware of the value of printer's 

 ink, and excellent periodicals and leaflets 

 come to us from various quarters of the 

 field. It is a good sign, showing that an 

 organization seeking publicity in this way 

 is doing something worth telling about. 

 That some of the older and stronger Audu- 

 bon groups should not have done more 

 publishing than they have is rather sur- 

 prising. Why, for instance, did the Mas- 

 sachusetts State Society wait until now to 

 offer their Bulletin? This publication be- 

 gan in February, 191 7, and is issued 

 monthly. It is not only a chronicle of the 

 affairs of the Society and a source of 

 information as to protective legislation, 

 educational work, lectures, exhibitions, 

 new books, etc., but carries noteworthy 



items of ornithological news and pleasant 

 stories of bird-life. Such a bulletin is not 

 only inspiring and valuable to a society 

 as a 'house-organ,' but, as edited by 

 Secretary Packard, may greatly extend the 

 reputation and utility of theMassachusetts 

 Society in all New England. Among other 

 things, the last number reports the re- 

 markable success last winter of the cus- 

 tomary course of bird-lectures given in 

 Boston. 



In Rhode Island the State Society is 

 represented by the series of Bulletins of 

 the Park Museum in Providence, which is 

 in charge of the State Society's Secretary, 

 H. L. Madison. This publication is espe- 

 cially useful to teachers in their nature- 

 study classes. 



The Hartford Bird Study Club is the 

 largest and most conspicuous organiza- 

 tion of the kind in Connecticut, although 

 the State Society has carried on a far more 

 general educational work in the schools 

 and by means of traveling libraries. No 

 serial publication is supported by either, 

 but the Hartford Club issues annually a 

 Year-hook that is a model of its kind. 

 Year-books are also issued by several 

 other large bird clubs, especially those of 

 Brookline, and Milton (Brush Hills Club),
