THE BIRDS 

 LOVE BERRIES 



When you first look out of the 

 window early in the morning you 

 will see the birds getting their 

 breakfast from the berry-bearing 

 shrubs. These same shrubs will 

 also provide lunch and dinner, in

It is a simple matter for you 

 to surround your garden with 

 berry-bearing shrubs, or plant a 

 copse in some quiet corner. All 

 of these shrubs are distinctly 

 ornamental the year round, and 

 can be used in place of ordinary 

 shrubs that have no attraction 

 after the flowers have faded.
