 into orders, sub-orders, fam)lies. and sub-families. 



Values are based on the 1893 ones which were determined by the compiler, from invaluable 

 notes, suggestions and assistance from Major Chas. E. Bendire, J. Parker Norris. Esq., and Cap- 

 tain B. F. Goss. In addition to these notes, which have been carefully reworked, the compiler 

 has had suggestions from over Forty Leading American Oologists, all ot which were care- 

 fully considered and where advisable, adopted. Lattin's Catalogue has long been recognized by 

 leading Oologists as the "Standard." The compiler intends to issue a new one as soon as this 

 edition is exhausted and desires the assistance of every working Oologist, in making values, etc. 

 On this account he)!has concluded to close out this edition at the following rates, postpaid, (regular- 

 price was 25 cents per copy.) Single copy o cents: 3 for 12 cents: 7 for 25 cents: 15 for 50 cents.

THOUSANDS OF OLD BOOKS 



Have accumulated in the libraries of our public institutions, and those of prominent public men,. 

 both in duplicate and otherwise. They cost them nothing and oft-times are valued accordingly. 

 They are, however, both valued and desired by specialists and parties interested. Perhaps you 

 or your friends may have some of the identical volumes which I desire, crowding library shelves 

 or stowed away in garrets, doing nobody any good; but had I them I would not only appreciate 

 them but might know of a dozen others who would do likewise. Look over my list of wants and 

 if you have anything I desire or others write me, stating what you wish in exchange, and perha.ps 

 we can arrange an exchange which will be advantageous to each. I will exchange for single vol- 

 umes—but the larger the exchange the better.
