HOW TO WIN BIRDS 



If everybody only knew how many thousands of 

 native birds die of starvation every winter no 

 one who has a home would fail to set out a feed- 

 ing house or shelter for birds. Now is the best

 and shelter houses. You can keep many beauti- 

 ful birds with you all winter and they will 

 attract more birds to your place by telling them 

 how well you care for birds. To save birds and 

 win birds put out
