Bird Houses. 



Minneapolis, Minnesota, stimulated 

 interest in the building of bird houses 

 by a bird-house show. The price of 

 admission was one bird house. Prizes 

 were given for the seven bird houses 

 declared to be the best. They were 



divided into the following classes: 

 The most attractive, the best bird 

 shelter, the best observation house, 

 the best combination house, the best 

 arranged house, the best feeding box, 

 and the best drinking fountain. — Class- 

 mate. — W. A. Strong, San Jose, Cal.
