Feed the <strong>Bird</strong>s the<br />

Packard Special Mixture <strong>Bird</strong>-Food<br />

Large trial package, 8 pounds for $i.oo. Quantity<br />

rates—^much less—on application<br />

WINTHROP PACKARD, Canton, Massachusetts<br />

This is the only really satisfactory food for wild birds on the market<br />

today. I compounded it after years of study of our birds and the food they<br />

need in winter. It saves their lives in the snow and bitter cold.<br />

ration—a perfect diet.<br />

It is a balanced<br />

Winthrop Packard.<br />

"On this important estate I have put up, under the auspices of the National<br />

Association of Audubon Societies, Department of Applied Ornithology, your<br />

self-feeding devices, supplied with your bird-food. Hundreds of birds have<br />

fed from them all winter and are still doing so. Every self-feeder put up was<br />

promptly emptied and they worked finely. At times when snow lodged in<br />

the trays, the birds, knowing the food was there, would promptly 'shovel<br />

out the paths' by scratching and start the seed flowing again." Herbert K. Job.<br />

"<strong>Bird</strong>s will come to eat from my hand with the Packard Special Mixture<br />

<strong>Bird</strong>-food in it more quickly than with any other kind I can find."<br />

"I put the feeder upon a trellis by the door—filled—to give it a hard<br />

test, and already seven different birds have been to it—Nuthatch, Junco,<br />

Chipping Sparrow, Tree Sparrow, Goldfinch, English Sparrow and a big Blue<br />

Jay. Seems to me quite a record." Margaret Brigham.<br />

The Packard Automatic<br />

Food-House<br />

Keeps the food dry, feeds automatically, avoids waste, lasts years, costs<br />

60 cents. Two for a dollar. WHY PAY MORE?<br />

COMPLETE OUTFIT. Saves time and money. In one order, two automatic<br />

food-houses, eight pounds of Special Mixture <strong>Bird</strong>-food—enough to<br />

fill them several times—all for two dollars.<br />

THE PACKARD BIRD-HOUSES are used, approved, and formally endorsed<br />

by the Massachusetts Audubon Society for the Protection of <strong>Bird</strong>s.<br />

Now is a good time to put them out. They will serve as night shelters for<br />

the winter birds, and the migrants will find them in the spring. DO IT<br />

NOW. Bluebird size, three for a dollar. WHY PAY MORE?<br />

"I am greatly pleased with your <strong>Bird</strong>-Houses, and shall be glad to use<br />

more of them next year." Henry Oldys.<br />
