1^8 FLOU'ERIXG SHRUBS. 



of these hardy shrubs are a great resource for food to the " Wee hopping, 

 things," our late and early birds, and together with the dry seeds of the 

 Mullein and Rough Amaranth, which harbour many insects in their 

 husky seed vessels, support them till the Spring returns bringing food 

 and eladness to the earth, when the Great Father opens his hand and 

 fiUeth all things living with plenteousness.
