tained five rotten Oriole eggs. In the same year 

 and near the same place I found a well built nest 

 of the English Sparrow twenty feet up in a cedar 

 tree. On climbing up 1 found 5 eggs, which I 

 threw away, only to come back a week later and 

 find four more; this kept on f o r some time, I 

 would go to the nest nearly every week and g<. t 

 the eggs until I had taken 24 eggs from her, s o 

 I concluded to let the patient little Sparow raise 

 a brood, which she did. In 1898 I found a 



Brown Thrashers nest in some leaves on ^ h e 

 ground on a hillside, it contained four eggs. 

 The next year, half a mile from the '98 nest, I 

 found a nest of the Brown Thrasher in the same 

 kind of a place, with eggs in it. 

 I should like to hear f rom others upon the above 

 subject. Albert Ganier, Miss.

 be able to accomodate all in the November issue, 

 as we shall add more pages if neccessary.
