tuiiately the writers have not; read the rules which were given on two cc- caslons in these notes and which are now repeated for their guidance. The letters should take the form of e “theme" or composition in answer to the following questions: At what. date did you commence feeding? About. what time elapsed till you saw the first bird at. the food? What. did you put out. for food? How did you gonbout. it? What species of birds came to your feeding station? How many, as nearly as you can compute. fed at your station? Did any species seem to prefer certain foods, (if you fed different kinds of food)? Any nthcr remarks about. birds, in geri- cral, that you have observed this winter.

Now if these questions are answer- ed in the order given, the work of the judges will be simplified and lightened. But. don't answer as if you were filling out the income tml papers. Not this wayt-“Decnflfith. A week. Grain and suelP-and so on. This is the way the answer might. run. “I commenced to feed on (such and such u date), but. it was about a week before any birds were attracted.

The Garden of the Gulf

An arm of the sec, blue, glittering. wooed by an ardent sun; fringed by yellow sands; inland from these, fields laughing with harvest, yellow, green, dun; s. glimpse of red shows the roe-d to the shore. iJlrk amid all this light, a belt. of spruce runs out on a promontory and towers above the waters. Here and there e dwell- ing adds e new touch of color tn the

shades prevail. And far off. on both sea. and land, n light have lends a gin-snoring unreality to this faery realm. How often does one gaze on such a summer ,. ‘ on this fe- vored isle, can earth show any scene more fair?

Nature has indeed richly endowed the Garden of the Gulf. But the old pioneers tolled and mulled, like Ten- nyson’: "Nothem Farmer," to leave us the cultivated acres as a heritage. Their life-work was to conquer the primeval forest, and. the beautifying of their immediate snrr "nzs could wait. One feels sure, however. that. their wives always had a. little garden, with flowers and. plants from their homes in other lends. In our own day, lt- ls the woman of the household who carries on the tradi- tion and combines the beautiful and "the practical in the growing of flow- ers and vegetables.

There is an awakening of the aesthetic spirit, nevertheless. Canada has reached the point. where the strictly utilitarian may bc profitably intermingled with the beautiful. Feeling this, the Horticultural Coun- cil of Canada has issued an excel- lent little brochure, entitled “Beau- tlfying the Home Grounds of Cen- adu," which for completeness leaves nothing to be desired. In the pre- face, Dr. Macoun goes right. to the point when he says:

“There are so many things in modern life to lessen the influence of the home that. it needs something to make it. more and more attractive in order to bold lmd increase the at.- tachment to this important centre of

\\ scene, white, yellow, and the lighter
