 your grounds of 

 the sparrows, and 

 give the song 

 birds a chance to 

 take their place. 



Think for a 

 moment of the 

 feed you save by 

 catching, say only 

 ten a day, as fifty 

 sparrows eat a quart of grain each day; but the Ever-Set 

 Trap has caught as high as 65 in one day. The trap needs very 

 little attention; any child can take care of it. Made of galvan- 

 ized wire No. 17, H mesh and wiU last for many years.
