A if solution was adopted to.precure from Xerth Carolina as many parti idcs as can be ob tained for stecki'.g the grounds of the association and ether parts of the county. In view of the scveic weather and unusually heavy and long continued falis of snow it is feared that most of our native birds will perish during the winter.
