SPECIAL NOTICE. — We have 

 moved our mail business to Albion, N. 

 Y., 3 miles from Gaines, and henceforth 

 all communications should be addressed 

 us at that place. 



Vol. I complete, of The Young Oolo- 

 GIST cau be furnished during the month of 

 May for 60 cents Back numbers 6 cent.s 

 each : five or more, 5 cents each. Vol. I 

 after June 1st will cost 75 cents. We 

 have only a few hundred sets left. Order 

 at once or you may be too late. 



Subscribers finding a notice in this issue 

 informing them that this is the last num- 

 ber of the Y. O. their due, will please re- 

 new at once. We cannot afford to lose a 

 single subscriber. We will send the Y. O. 

 as long as you have paid for it and no 

 longer, and should you receive an extra 

 number occasionally do not return it bul 

 hand it to some bird-loving friend. 



To .\NY PUBLISHER giving our little 

 monthly a notice, favorable or otherwise, 

 and sending us a marked copy of the same, 

 we will send them The Yodng Oologist 

 one year. We know the value of printer's 

 ink and trust our brotber publishers will 

 give us a liberal sprinkling of the same. 

 We will endeavor to reciprocate the favor 

 by giving them lots of notes on birds, 

 their nests and eggs during the ensuing 

 twelve months. Amateurs accepting the 

 above offer will please enclose 35 cents 

 extra. 



Our new catalogue of Minerals, Shells, 

 Naturalists' Supplies, etc., will be sent to 

 every subscriber of The Y'oiing Colo- 

 gist as soon as issued. 



Knowing that our readers would much 

 rather have The Young Oiii.oGisT twelve 

 months without a colored cover than one- 

 half that time with one we start Vol. II 

 coverle.ss. In this form it will be just as 

 valuable to them, containing just as much 

 intei-esting matter, be just as convenient, 

 if not more, for the binder, and last, but 

 not least, save us several hundred dollars. 

 Vol. 1 cost us many dollars more than we 

 received for the same, besides donating our 

 work gratuitously. We cannot afford to 

 publish Vol. II unless is pays at least our 

 printers' bills. If subscriptions continue 

 to pour in at present rate we feel assured 

 that our friends will see us through. 



Our Premium List in a Nut Shell. 



For every rune subscriber, one of our 

 present subscriber.s may send us, at $1.00 

 per year, we will give thirty-five cents 

 worth of anything we advertise, or offer 

 for sale in The Young Oologist, out 

 Catalogue, or any circular we may send 

 out. We trust our friends will obtain 

 for us as many new subscribers as possible. 

 We consider our premium list one of 

 the largest and most varied ever sent 

 out by any publisher in America. Parties 

 desiring to obtain a costly premium can 

 send in their names, as fast as obtained, 

 and we will give them a check good for 

 35 cents, in trade, when the required num- 

 ber of checks are obtained they may be 

 sent to us and we will send the premium 

 desired. Parties prefering cash in place 

 of the above will be allowed 25 cents on 

 each sub.scription.
