The joyful song on a Canary fills one’s home with wonderful good cheer and can change an 
atmosphere of gloom to one of happiness in a few moments. 
Canaries need little care, as they require little attention, yet they give us much in return. 
Cages now are inexpensive. They add color and brightness to the home. The cost of main- 
taining a Canary is very little. A Canary would be an inspiration to every home. 
As a gift to a shut-in or invalid, and to teach children responsibility—a Canary has no equal.

il Breeding of Canaries 
sg z: We E LLLLifp Is a very fascinating pastime. German families in the 
Hartz Mountains have enjoyed this work for genera- 
tions. On Saint Valentine’s Day, the male and female 
are put together—for their patron saint is thought to 
bring about a happy mating. Five eggs are, as a rule, 
laid. Fourteen days are required to bring forth feath- 
erless infants. In four weeks they are out of the nest 
and mother and daddy are building a new nest for the 
next family.
