Making 
A chickadee house 
of interesting make 
which when in place 
has the special ad¬ 
vantage of being 
wholly inconspicu¬ 
ous 
Sturdy and of rustic 
simplicity this bird- 
bath suits the smaller 
garden where elabor- 
ations are out of 
place 
The golden-winged 
wood pecker or flick¬ 
er is somewhat fin¬ 
icking in his re¬ 
quirements which 
seem, however, to 
be met in this hex¬ 
agonal house eleven 
inches deep and 
larger at bottom 
than top 
Such a hotel de luxe as this winter feeding station with 
its food cones, seed trays, and automatic seed hopper 
ought surely to appeal to the traveler who likes luxury 
Excellent in line, this birdhouse offers 
both "bed and board” for nuthatches 
or titmice. The attached food cone is 
evidently being enjoyed 
The Lincoln Wren House comes in de¬ 
tached pieces easily put together by a 
child, and is just the thing for the boy or 
girl who loves out-of-doors and has a taste 
for carpentry 
The feeding tray coaxes 
many a shy visitor into 
friendly proximity 
through winter months 
when his liveliness and 
grace are more then ever 
a source of pleasure 
Tour Feathered Guests 
Comfortable 
Simply constructed and readily 
adjusted, this tree guard pro¬ 
tects the birds from the inroads 
of cats and other animals; if put 
high enough it will usually keep 
down even the agile squirrel 
The “downy cot” is 
not forhumans alone, 
and birds are glad to 
find the wherewithal 
to line their nests 
finely
