APPENDIX. 



Glo\er's statement; and if tliree broods were raised the luunber 

 would l)e six hundred and twenty-five niiUion. Unfler the circum- 

 stances it seems probable that the estimate by Glover is not an 

 exaggeration if three broods or even two and one-half broods are 

 raised, but such a statement would not apply to the northern part 

 of the range.
