The Mission of the Birds. By Clarence Moores Weed. Na- 

 ture Study Leaflet No. 2, New Hamshipre College Agricultural 

 Experiment Station. April, 1902. 



This 12-page illustrated leaflet is pretty clearly intended for 

 the teacher of children, and is therefore full of directions for the 

 instruction of the children in nature study, but particularly the 

 study of birds. This text is largely explanatory of a diagram on 

 the second page which sets forth graphically, on a plan of group- 

 ing, the insects which molest all sorts of vegetation under all 

 sorts of conditions, and the birds which feed upon the insects. 

 This chart is well conceived and clearly done, and, with the ac- 

 companying text and illustrations, makes a distinct contribution 

 to the pedagogical side of Ornithology. — L. J.
