two flounces Of silver-run lace about
the bottom. The wide scallops at the
bottom of the overskirt reach only a
little below the top Of these founces,
and are defined by spangles. Except
for small pannier drapery at each
side the overskirt hangs In straight
lines from the waist. For short
figure this drapery would better be
dispensed with.

trimmed In point at the front. Two
rows Of spangles define its lower
edge.

and vines bearing fruit relished by
birds are great attractions in their
season.
Birds are desirable about premises
not only on account of their beauty
and song, but because of their eco
nomic worth, according to the United
States bureau Of biological survey.
They are especially useful as insect
destroyers during the breeding period,
when they have to work early and late
to obtain sufficient food for theil
nestlings, and their. movements at fhis
time are more interesting than during
any other season. There is, therefore
double purpose in offering then4 spe-
cial nesting facilities. If mud hhYailr
able, swallows, robins and phoeBasWil
found and wall their nests with 1t. If
we put out feathers, bits of wool or
| Irvine, dozen different kinds of birds
will make use Of them. If we furnish
safe retreats In which they can rear
their young comfortably, most of them
will be occupied. In fact, no attrac-
ton for summer birds is more effec-
| tual than series OF houses suited to
the needs and habits of the various
| kinds Of house birds.
few years ago only four species
were commonly regarded as house
birds-the house wren, the bluebird,
the tree swallow ana the martin. Since
the movement to protect birds aud
make neighbors OF them began, how
ever, their natures and needs have be-
come better understood. and 1t Is now
known that many other species will
avail themselves of houses construct
ed for them by their human friends.
The practice of erecting birdhouses
In this country. while now nation
wide. is not so common and uniformly
distributed as 1t should be, and more
extended provisions of this nature
cannot fail to result in largely in
creased number of house birds.
The Oakley herald. [volume] (Oakley, Idaho) 1908-1961, 1917-02-16
QUESTIONS TO DETERMINE BE.
FORE BUILDING HOUSES.

Before erecting birdhouses one
should first determine the kind of
birds to which his premises are adapt
ed. The question usually next aris-
ing Is as to the number Of birds that
can be accommodated. Unless grounds
are large, it is generally useless to ex-
pect as tenants more than q pair of
each species, except martins, accord
ing to the United States Biological
survey. However, the singular intol-
erance shown by most birds during the
breeding season to others of their
kind does not operate between those
Of different species. A Slozen differ
ent kinds Of birds Will pursue their
several modes Of hunting and raise
their families on the same lot, but
rarely two Of the same sort. OF all
our native house birds, martins alone
are sociable.
Birds Are Tolerant.
The fact that birds are more toll
Grant toward strangers than toward
relatives was well illustrated by an
observation made recently In New
Mexico. A One-StOry Toulouse ten
feet square had nailed to three cor
ners of its roof rough birdhouses made
from packing boxes. One was occu-
pied by violN-green swallows, another
by western bluebirds, and the third
by English sparrows. A still more re-
markable association Of different spe-
cies~ has been reported by resident
OF st. Louis, Mo-, who once had a
pair each of fiickers, martins, house
wrens and English sparrows nesting
in the same house.
The fact that there is limit to the
possible bird population on any given
tract must be taken into consideration.
When the probable tenants have been
decided upon, the selection Of sites is
in order, for the site often decides the
