Audubon’s Birds of America.. 
We have a few plates of this magnific ent work which will be sold singly until the supply is 
exhausted. They are of the edition issued in America by Roe, Lockwood & Co., and represent the 
birds as life size. The sheets are elephant folio, and the paper heavy. For accuracy of delineation, 
fidelity to detail, and accessories 
Yacht Club, of Shelburne, Nova Scotia, has 
invited the Massachusetts association to visit 
that place during the week beginning July 15. 
Mr. W. A. Wagner, of the Shelburne club, has 
offered a silver cup as a perpetual challenge 
trophy for the dory class. This cup was origi¬ 
nally presented by Mr. Frank Lovitt, and is to be 
called the Lovitt-Wagner cup.

Mr. William Gardner has received an order 
from Spain to design a boat for the Sonder clas§. 
The new boat will be an improved Vim, which 
won the Roosevelt cup at Marblehead last fall.

A transaction of unusual importance in the 
motor boat world was lately consummated by 
the Ferro Machine & Foundry Co., of Cleve¬ 
land, O., in the sale of 500 Ferro auto-marine 
engines to the W. H. Mullins Co., of Salem, 
O., approximate cost being $65,000. This is the 
largest contract for small marine gasolene en¬ 
gines ever made in America. 
This is a practical compliment to the merit of 
the Ferro auto-marine engine. It is an evidence of 
the wide-spread popularity of the power boat and 
points to an era of unprecedented business de¬ 
mand to both boat and engine builders.

Audubon’s Birds Have Never Been Equaled. 
The constantly increasing scarcity of this work makes these large plates each year more valuable, so 
that from a business point of view they are a profitable investment. For a sportsman’s dining room a selection 
of these plates appropriately framed makes a 
SUPERB ORNAMENT. 
Some of these plates are double and can if desired be cut in two and put in smaller frames. The size of 
sheet is 39 x 26 inches, and they will be sent securely packed in a mailing tube, postage paid.
