Learn the Birds 



at your first acquaintance with them. You'll 

 never forget them if you jot down a complete 

 description of each one while you watch it. 

 By using the BIRD NOTE BOOK you 

 record the essential markings and structure 

 in a few seconds, and can refer to your 

 colored plates after the bird is gone. This 

 method impresses the bird on the memory 

 indelibly. Also aids teachers and class- 

 leaders. ITniversally approved. 

 Single copy I'ic. In two-dozen lots, 10c each

Food for Nesting Birds 



If you want birds to nest near you, you must 

 supply them with food. No food will attract 

 insectivorous birds more effectively than Meal- 

 worms. The old birds eat them and also give 

 them to their young. Meal-worms should be 

 fed from a shallow tin, glass or china vessel 

 that stands at some shaded place, free of the 

 sun's rays. Place in it the worms you wish to 

 feed that day. and also a little bran. That is 

 their food. A treat for the fishes, etc., in your 

 aquarium, to keep them active and in good 

 health. A good clean bait for fishing with 

 rod and line. A choice food for your young 

 pheasants. (See U.S. Farmers' Bulletin No. 390.) 



Shall I supply you? 500 for $1; 1,000 for 

 $1.50; 5,000 for $5; 10,000 for $7.50, all express 

 prepaid east of the Mississippi.
