MRS. BEEcHER's BIRDS.
How She Easily Cared for Fifty of Them of
Various Kinds


If YOU are methodical in the treatment of
your birds, you will find that all there is to
do is accomplished easily and quickly, writes
Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher in The Ladies'
Home Journal Some years since we had q
large cage, the entire height and width of q
window in the sewing room, and between
two and three feet deep. In this cage we
had 50 birds of different kinds. After one
weeks experience in caring for them we
allowed one-half hour every morning to
clean the cage feed and battle the birds and
make them happy. Taking out the gravel
pan and putting a dozen bath tubs in its
place; the pans, perches and feedingeups
were now taken out, cleaned and the cups
filed with the proper variety of food for
each different kind of bird.
This cleaning was all done by the time
they had finished bathing. Then, removing
the bath tubs and wiping the bottom of the
cage dry, the gravel, perches and feeding
cups were returned to their proper places
and the work was done. That was all the
birds needed till the next morning, unless,
once or twice week, they were given bit
OF lettuce or egg, or little raw beef.
