During t^e migration season of 1885 the general cbaraeter of the 

 work remained the same. Many new observers added their names to 

 the list, and their reports form a valuable portion of the material re- 

 ceived during that year. A great effort was made to fill up those parts 

 of the district which lacked observers in 1884, but with few exceptions 

 this attempt proved unsuccessful, the reason being that there are no per- 

 sons in these areas who are sufficiently acquainted with birds to report 

 their movements. 



A list of the new observers and stations for 1885 was published in 

 the Ornithologist and Oologist for August, 1885. It contains the names 

 of sixty-nine new observers, and of several of the observers of 1884 

 who had changed their residence since the previous list was printed. 

 Ninety of the observers of 1884 promised to send notes during the fol- 

 lowing year, making the whole number of observers in 1885 one hun- 

 dred and fifty-nine.
