The Oologist 



Is a 20-page (1(5 pages of inside matter with 

 a colored cover) Monthly issued during the 

 first week of each mouth. For this issue 

 we had so much additional mat'er, that in 

 order to get it all. in, we omitted the cover, 

 but to offset, give our patrons ticelve extra 

 pages, which we think will prove to their 

 entire satisfaction. We make this explana- 

 tion for the benefit of the hundre 8 of new 

 subscribers which will be sent in during the 

 next 30 days. 



The publisher of the Oologist is immodest 

 enough to claim that each number is worth 

 to the live collector or student of birds, 

 their nests and eggs, the whole amount a 

 trial trip ot yearly subscription would cost 

 them. 



Any One Interested

 death-beneficiary' associations of tlie 

 United States can help make the statis- 

 tics of their organizations for the forth- 

 coming census more complete and dis- 

 seminate the knowledge of the good 

 work they are doing by sending the 

 names of such societies as they may 

 know of, and the addresses of their 

 principal offices, to Mr. Charles A. 

 Jenney, Special Agent of the Eleventh 

 Census, 58 William street, New York 

 City.
