Bird Houses 



Birds are desirable about the garden not only for their beauty and song, but 

 also tor their great value as insect destroyers. 



It is astounding the quantity of insects they ""ill consume. One noted or- 

 nithologist has even advanced the claim that they eat more than their own weight 

 of insects daily. Below we list four of the most popular houses.

 limb of a tree. The openings are arranged so that they may be changed to ac- 

 commodate either a Wren or Bluebird family. Price', $3.00. Packed weight,

Bird Netting 



To Protect Fruits, etc 



What is more ex- 

 asperating than to 

 find that your bird 

 neighbors have de-

 their attacks, and they 

 revel among some 

 plants ripening seeds.

 ated by shutting the
