NOTICE TO EDITORS, PUBLISHERS, AND WRITERS 

 FOR THE POULTRY PRESS, 



It is the author's desire that whatever there may be of value in this 

 work should be as widely known to poultry keepers as is possibly con- 

 sistent with my business interests, I to be the sole judge of that. 



The original matter, other than that directly connected with the 

 construction of the Ideal nests, is covered by copyright solely to guard 

 against the detestable practice of plagiary that is so common in poultry 

 and other literature and in some poultry supply catalogues. 



While I should prefer that those who desire to quote from this book 

 ask my permission, I realize that when brief reference is desirable this 

 is not always convenient. In such cases, whether the accompanying- 

 opinions are favorable or unfavorable, I respectfully request that credit 

 be given to The Trap Xest Text Book by F. O. Wellcome. 



Matter in this book not original with me and not written expressly 

 for the book is not covered by my copyright. 



Respectfully, 



F. O. Wellcome.
