Bird Houses and Feeders 



If for no other reason than because 

 of their economic value an effort 

 should be made to attract and pro- 

 tect birds. 



Birds feed upon practically all 

 insect pests and so whatever measures 

 may be taken to induce a family of 

 wrens, a pair of blue birds, or wood- 

 peckers, or robins, to nest in the 

 garden or nearby tree, will be quickly 

 discounted by their continuing in- 

 fluence in keeping down the increasing 

 tide of insect life. 



Birds seemingly prefer a weather 

 beaten house, rather than a new 

 shelter, for this reason we suggest 

 locating your bird house during the 

 fall or early winter season. 



No. 10. Made entirely of cedar, trimmed with rustic bark. 

 Can be supplied for either blue birds or wrens. Weight 

 six pounds $1 50 



No. 30. Wrens. Madeof cedar, trimmed with cedar bark. 

 Weight five pounds 1 30 



Bird Feeders 



Birds most readily respond to our hospitality during the winter 

 season when their natural food supply is at a low ebb. The feed- 

 ing arrangements pictured offer a very convenient method for 

 the distribution of bird food. Many of our native song birds 

 may be induced to remain with us during the 

 winter season if an abundance of food is placed 

 where it is readily accessible.

 either a stained mahogany finish or with the body 

 painted white and the roof in green. Weight five pounds.
