The foUowlnt; notes should be taken at once on securing the specimen : The length, in inches, from tip ot bill to end of tail; the distance between the two extremeties of the outstretched wings: and length of the wing from the first joint. The numbers may be recorded as follows: 44-02-1 j (as for a Swan) without any explanation: it being well imderstood that the atMve measurements follow each other In a fixed succession, i. The color of the eyes, that of the feet, bill, etc. 3. The date locality, collector, etc. 4. The sex. (as not (Hi further along). Immediately after the bird is killed, the holes made by the ahot, together with the mouth and internal nostrils, should be plugged with cottim. to prevent escape of blood and Juices of the stomach. When rciuly to commence skinning, remove the old cotton from the throat, mouth and nostrils and replace it by fresh. Make an incision through the skin only, (be careful and not cut any deeper) from the lower end of the breast bone to the anus. Proceed carefully to separate the skin on each side, until you reach the knee and expose the thigh, when taking the leg in one hand push or thrust the knee up on the ab- domaii and loosen the skin around it until you can place the scissors or knife underneath, and (separate the Joint from the accompanying muscles. (Yom the beginning to this point it is well to sprinkle the bodv and skin freely with plaster garis, which will absorb all moisture and esneoliilty with irds that are very fat.

Tie the legs and mandibles together. If the bird have long legs and neck, these had better be folded Aawa over thebody, and allowed to dry In that position. To der te'rmine the sex of a specimen, take the body that has beett detached from the skin, make an Incision in the side near the TertebriB, and exposing the inside surface of the "small of the back." The genera tlv3 organs will be found to be tightly bound to this region, and separating it from the intestines. The testifies male will be observed as two spheroidal whitish VK)dles varying with the season and species nrom the size of a pin heiul to that of u hazel nut. The ovaries of the female, consisting of a flattened mass of spheres, variable in size with the season, will be found in the same region. The skin should be placed in a round tiilw of paper until thoroughly dry when It will retain its proper shape. II. MAMMALS. The mode of preparing Mammals Is precisely the same in Its general features as for birds. Space will not permit us to mention all the flnor details, therefore the directions will be as brief as posslljle. following the plan outlined by BIr. W. T. Ilornilay-in the proceedings of the U. S.National Museum. Lav the amlmul flat upon its back. and. beginning at the throat, make a straight, clean cut in the skin along the mid- dle of the neck, breast, and abdomen, quite to the base of the tall. Except in very small animals the tail also must be slit open along the under side froii about one inch above the root quite to the tip. . . . ^ The bottom of t'te foot must be slit oi)en lengthwise, from the base of the middle toe to the heel, AU the opening cuts in the skin are now made. Begin at the ml(Ml3 of the abdomen, and out the skin neat- ly from the body, leaving no flesh, or at least but very little, adhering to It. We come very sotm to where the fore leg joins the body at tie shoulder, and the hind leg at the hip. Out throuuih the muscles at those points, disjoint the legs, and detach them entirely from the body. Skin each leg by turning the skin wrong side out over the foot, quite down to the toes. When this has been done, out the flesh away from the bones of the leg and foot, but be care- ful to leave the bones attached to each other by their natural ligaments, and to the skin Itself at the toes, fftver throw awav the Ug boneii of an anhnaHf the ikin it to be tnounttd, but leave tnem attached to the skin. . Detach the skin from the back, shoulders, and neck, and when you come to the ears cut them off close to the head. Turn the skin wrong side out over the head and proceed un- til you come to the eyes. Now work slowly with the knife, keeping close to the edge of the bony orbit, until you see, through a thin membrane under your knjfe edge, the dark portion of the eye. You may now cut fearlessly through this membrane and exjjose the eyeball. It Is a good plan with lai'ge mammals, to hold one finger of the left nand In the eye and cut against it to avoid cutting the liu.

Instructions for Collecting, Prepar- ing and Preserving Birds ' Eggs and Nests. [We are indebted to Capt. C. E. Bendire's report to the U. S. National Museum for many of tlie notes herein given. | In maklug a eollet-tlon of Nests nnd EggB to lusiire positive lilentlttfiitlou the parent Wril Mhould be so<;ure<1. with all the less kno^vn and rarer birds until the collwtor is thoroiiKhly familar with the breeding hal)lt». nesting sites and eggs of the speeies In iiiie?!tlou. The mere aecnnmlatlou of speci- mens Is the least Important objeet of the oologlst. His prin- ciple aim should be to make careful observation on t)ie hab- its, call notes, song, the character of the food, mode and length of incubation and the action of the species generally from the beginning of the mating season to the time the yoimg are ah'e to leave the ne.sts. With this end in view every collector should keep a note book at all times. Take It with you as surely as you take your coUec-tlng box and use It. When you set down to rest, out with your pencil and not<> down everything of Interest. A plan we would recom- mend to all collectors Is to number your '-take" each season In successive order. 1-et your first set of eggs bo 1 and your ne.xt set 3 and so on. Then record In your Hold note book evervlhlngof Interest connected with cai'h set. This will en- able you to wTlte up your d.itas when the "evenings gi-ow long'"' and you have more time. Eggs when first taken shotild have all stains and dirt on the shell cleaned oft. Do not scrub the shell too much as in some cases this will effect the coloration. A cake of sapollo. a clean rag and a little patience will clean the dirtiest speci- men we have ever seen. It will even remove ink marks. Care should be taken In washing eggs of game birds, as Orotise, Quail. &c., else the coloring matter will come off, also the shells of some of the water birds as Pelicans, Oan- nets and Cormorants are covered with a deposit of lime, which should not be scraped off. Thoroughly clean all white To drill and blow eggs, take the specimen In the left hand, using thumb and first two fingers, your drill In the right, and gently twirl the drill first one way then the other. In some specimens the holes had best be started with a pin first, where shell is very hard. The hole should be In the side about midway lietween the two ends.and should never be made any larger than absolutely neceisary. In all eggs up to a Crow In size, from l-S-J to 1-8 of an Ir b In sjwtted eggs, make hole on the side least marked. Further on will be found cuts of some Instruments used- To Wow the egg, hold as before,placlng'the tip of the blow pipe near the edge of the hole blowing gently. If the egg is tresn the contents will come out very (jtilckly and thoroughly. If the yolk has eet- TTrrjM^UBWMWiWBgC ■ _ tt' Macjal. ing, Prepar- g Birds sts. re's report to the U.
