NOTICES TO SUBSCRIBERS 



BIRD-LORE is published on the first of every other month by the Macmillan Co., at Crescent 

 and Mulberry streets, Harrisburg, Pa., where all notices of change of address, etc., should be sent. 



Subscribers whose subscription expires with the present issue will find a properly dated 

 renewal blank in their magazine. In the event of a desire not to renew, the publishers would 

 greatly appreciate a postal to that eftect. 



To subscribers whose subscription expired w^ith the issue for June, I90I, and who have 

 as yet neither renewed their subscription nor, in response to our request, sent us a notice to discon- 

 tinue their magazine, the present number is sent in the belief that the matter of renewal has been 

 overlooked. We trust it will now receive prompt attention. 



Complete sets of Volumes I and II of 'Bird-Lore* can still be supplied. 



Volume I contains 206 pa?es, with 79 illustrations; Volume II, 204 pages, with 80 illus- 

 trations, or a total of 410 pages (equivalent to about 800 pages of the average I2mo book), 

 and 159 illustrations 



Every number of 'Bird-Lore' is as readable and valuable today as when it was issued, 

 and no bird lover who is not already supplied can find a better investment than the back 

 volumes of 'Bird-Lore,' which are offered at the subscription price of $1 each, postpaid. 



Entered as second-class mail matter in the Post Office at Harrisburg, Pa.
