DEAR PATRONS 
Every home owner should encourage the birds of the wild to make your home their home. 
A few inexpensive bird houses tucked away in odd corners—under eaves, a bird bath to 
provide a morning splash, possibly a winter feeding station for grains and bread crumbs 
and pieces of suet to tide them over during the winter months. Your thoughtfulness will 
be well repaid by our feathered friends in double measure.

The Cat 
Cats, to be a pleasure to look upon and to 
fill that friendly feeling in the mind and lov¬ 
ing spot in the heart, must be in good health 
and form. Success with cats, whether for 
exhibition, breeding or home comfort, de¬ 
pends upon the condition in which they are 
kept and the care bestowed upon them. Ex¬ 
ercise is especially necessary for cats in city 
homes, and the catnip ball is a desirable aid 
in this direction. The average life of the cat 
is from 12 to 15 years.
