Ilie }'(>itng' (Wt>g'ist, a paper recently started, promises to be of great
value to all who are interested in studying birds, the collecting of their
egg1.., and specimens of natural history in general. It gives useful and
practical information regarding ornithology and oology. It answers all
questions sent in from month to month, thus meeting the practical wants
of all subscribers.— Providence, R. I., Evening Telegram, July 8, 1884.

It is a bright paper which gives in popular language a great amount of
useful information about birds, eggs, nests and collecting. — Hand-book of
the St. Nicholas Agassix Association.

The Young Oologist , published by Frank l.attin, (laines, X. Y., makes
its debut this month ; we give it a hearty welcome ; quite a number of our
readers are making collections of eggs and natural curiosities, we will say
to them if they want to know the habits of birds and how to make collec-
tions that will be valuable and add to their scientific knowledge, they
should by all means get the Young Oologist. We have seen collections of
eggs that were not properly blown and identified, they are therefore of no
value. There is a right way and a wrong way of doing things ; the right
way is always the best. — Rio Grande, N. (., Times.

It is a positive fact that the You >ig Oologist, of Ciaines, N. Y., is the
best and most practical bird egg paper we have yet seen, and we do not
hesitate to recommend it to collectors of that branch. — Collector's Exchange.

It bids fair to become indispensible to the Oologist. The editor has "our
wishes for its future success. --The Naturalists' journal.

It is a very readable and instructive paper for boys who are anxious to
know something about ornithology, a most delightful and prolific study.
We commend it cordially to our young readers. — Saratoga Kagle.

It is especially devoted to wide-awake boys and girls who are interested
in the science of eggs, and its pages are well filled with readable matter
upon that and similar topics. — Cat taraugus Republican.

Its value to collectors of birds' eggs is apparent in the reading matter
presented and \ve would advise collectors to subscribe for it. — Our Yerdict.

Useful and interesting to all collectors of birds' eggs and other natural
subjects of scientific study. — The Peacemaker.

Filled with interesting notes, and well worth its subscription price.—

whom it is designed.'' — S. K. Cassino.

During the season of 1883 iny trade was fully four times
that of 1882, and during the season of 1884 it has been fully
four times that of 1883. As great an increase during the
season of 1885 I cannot expect, but of my old customers,
while feeling grateful for their patronage of the past, I
hope to merit a continuance of the same in the future.

To those who have never dealt with me I only request a
trial, remembering I guarantee satisfaction with every
specimen I send out, and, if not entirely so, will make it,
or will refund your money.

Catalogue for 1885.

In preparing my catalogue for 1885 I have spared neither
time nor expense to make it invaluable to the Oologist
whether amateur or professional.

It gives the common and scientific names of all North
American birds, arranged and numbered according to
Ridgeway's (the Smithsonian) nomenclature of 1881 ; it
gives the numbers used in Baird's check-list of 1859 and
those used in Coues' of 1883 ; it gives the value of the eggs
of over 550 species of North American birds, this fact alone
making the catalogue invaluable to collectors as a basis of
exchange.

It names the various families into which the birds of
North America are divided, and enumerates the birds
belonging to each family.

It gives, approximately, the number of eggs in a clutch
of every American bird.

It tells how to prepare specimens for cabinet, how to
pack them for transportation, with many other useful hints.

INTRODUCTION.

My Collection

Of eggs of North American birds, incomplete as it is, out-
numbers, I think, both in species represented and in num-
ber of specimens, that of any American dealer. My stock
is constantly increasing, and being in direct correspondence
with nearly 2,000 collectors I can furnish my patrons al-
most anything obtainable.

Condition and Marking of Specimens.

Every specimen priced in this catalogue is first-class in
every respect, being carefully and cleanly blown from one
smoothly drilled hole in the side and free from ink-marks
or unnatural stains of any kind.

All specimens are numbered to correspond with Ridge-
way's nomenclature (the numbers on the left in this cata-
logue.)

Substitutes.

As my stock is constantly changing, collectors, when
ordering, should always mention a few extra specimens
that can be used as substitutes, in case I am out of any of
the specimens desired.

It is impossible for any dealer to always have everything
in stock they advertise.

All orders filled Proir.ptly.

To my promptness in filling and forwarding orders I, in
no small measure,- attribute my success. We well know
that when a collector orders a specimen he wants it at once,
not a month or two hence. All orders are fillecT by return
mail, except when unavoidably delayed. .

The naming of extra specimens to be used as substitutes
will often avoid delay in the filling of an order.

Careful Packing and Safe Delivery of Specimens
Guaranteed.

I exercise the greatest of care in packing, and use noth-
ing but strong, well made boxes (most of which are made
expressly for my use.)

Frequently specimens are broken by rough usage and
handling in the mails, this of course is no fault of mine, but,

INTRODUCTION.

owing to the confidence I place in my system of packing,
I will guarantee the safe delivery of every specimen I send,
whether by mail or otherwise.

Should specimens happen to become broken, I will re-
place such specimens gratis, providing the damaged speci-
mens are returned to me within three days after they have
been received by the parties ordering,

Large and valuable orders are usually sent by express," as
it is much safer.

Surplus Stock.

I frequently recsive the eggs of some species in large
quantities at very low rates.

My friends are given the benefit of these low rates in the
Curiosity Bulletin which I publish bi-monthly.

Second-class Specimens.

I usually have in stock a lot of specimens that are either
end-blown, blown through a large or rough hole in the side,
or otherwise imperfect.

This class of specimens answer very well for the beginner
or any collector desiring a lot of specimens for a small sum
of money.

Second-class specimens are sold very low.

Prices and the list of second-class specimens, we can fur-
nish, can always be found in the Curiosity Bulletin.

Exchanging.

For such eggs as I may want I will allow one-half cata-
logue rates in exchange. Special rates can sometimes be
given for very desirable lots.

Parties desiring to exchange with me should always ob-
serve the following hints, thereby preventing any possible
unpleasantness or delay : —

Write, stating plainly what you have to offer, and what
you desire in return, should we arrange an exchange.

Pack carefully ; remember you ship your eggs at your
risk.

Mark your name and address on the package, it is often
impossible for me to tell who it is from if you do not. (I
am now furnishing my friends a neat little three or four
line Rubber Stamp and outfit for this purpose at only 35
cents, usual price $1.00.)

INTRODUCTION.

Last but not least —

I want nothing but strictly first-class specimens in ex-
change. Specimens of any other quality will be heavily
discounted, or returned at the senders expense.

Small exchanges amounting to less than $1.00 not
solicited.

Eggs in Sets

Can generally be furnished when desired. No more will
be charged for each egg in a set than for single specimens.

The date and locality of taking and generally description
of nest accompanies each set.

The numbers of eggs in a set can be ascertained by ref er-
ing to the table following the catalogue.

INSTRUCTIONS FOB THE COLLECTOR OF
BIRDS' EGGS.

On the following'pages we endeavor to tell in as few
words as practical how to prepare eggs for the cabinet.

The methods of other collectors may differ in a meas-
ure from the one we give, but taken as a whole, they are
essentially the same.

End blown specimens are now of but little, if any
value.

The few that now remain in the cabinets of our more
advanced oologists are being replaced by carefully pre-
pared side-blown ones.

As good instruments can now be obtained of any
dealer for a trifle, it is a poor apology f or an oologist to mar
the beauty and inpair the value of his treasures by blowing
them through the ends.

The majority of our_ leading oologists save their speci-
mens in the original set or clutch, while a few of the older
and the majority of the younger ones save eggs either
singly or in pairs.

Our advise to beginners, who have no true love for
"our hobby, "and collect only for a pastime, or strive to
out number the collection of some friend, or whose chief aim.
is to become a mere egg collector would be to collect spar-
ingly of single eggs, for we assure you that as soon as the
novelty wears off they will be cast aside to make way for
the next craze.

BIRD'S EGGS, SUPPLIES, ETC. 71

DATA BLANKS.

When collecting eggs in sets each set should be accom-
panied with a well-filled data blank. Of the many forms
now in use the one given on the following page is one of
the most convenient and popular.

We always keep a complete assortment of various
styles and sizes, and will be pleased to send a full set of
samples with prices to all applicants enclosing stamp.

Each egg of the above set should be marked 516|.

HIRD'S EGGS, SUPPLIES, EFC. 73

Always use a soft lead pencil in marking eggs. Never
ink.

The well-filled data blank, as given on the preceeding.
page, is self explanatory :

The No. "516" refers to the number as given in
Ridge way's Nomenclature, those used in this catalogue.

Set mark "3" signifies that this is the third clutch
of the Killdeer, taken by the collector during the season.

The figure, letter or character you use in marking the
eggs of one clutch to distinguish them from those in
another of the same species should always be duplicated in
the data blank in the space following the words, "set
mark. "

When figures are used for dates, either on the blank or
on the egg, the month should be placed first, thus: —
5-15-84, for May 15th, 1884.

HOW TO BLOW AND PREPARE BIRDS' EGGS.

Before commencing to blow most eggs remove all dirt
and unnatural stains with a soft cloth and warm water.

The eggs of some species cannot be washed without
destroying the " bloom " while in others the characteristic
marking will wash away on account of the shell being so
•calcareous. Hold the egg carefully but securely between
the thumb and fingers of one hand, while you gently twirl
the drill with those of the other.

It is often necessary and generally advisable to start
the hole with a sharp needle. When the hole is of the
proper size, in small eggs it need not be any larger than the
diameter of a pin, while in an egg the size of a Robins's
a hole the diameter of a pin head is large enough.

Invert the egg and hold it with the hole downwards
over a basin of water — this will often save a desirable spec-
imen in case you should happen to drop it while blowing —
place the tip of the blow-pipe near the aperture, never
Insert it unlesss the egg is large, blow steadily and contin-
uously, the contents will ooze out.

After the egg is blown, rinse thoroughly with clean
•water ; this can be easily done by taking a little water in the
mouth and sending it through the blowpipe into the egg, or
by placing the tip of the blow-pipe in a glass of fresh
w:iter, draw the pipe nearly full, inject into egg by blowing.
When rinsing large eggs it is often necessary to shake
thoroughly when partially full of water.

BIRD'S EGGS, SUPPLIES, ETC. 75

After rinsing wipe the egg dry and lay it with the hole
down in a tray that has a coarse towel or piece of blotting
paper in the bottom to absorb the drainage. As soon as the
egg becomes thoroughly dry both within and without, the
egg is ready for the cabinet.

THE EMBRYO, unless too far advanced, can be removed
by drilling the hole larger, blow out a portion of the
contents, inject a little water, shake gently, blow again.
We have often removed an embryo nearly formed in this
manner. It will sometimes be necessary to repeat this opera-
tion several times before the embryo is entirely removed.

When the young is well formed in the egg, it can be
removed by making the hole still larger, and extracting the
contents in small pieces by the use of an embryo hook.
We have often taken a young bird from the egg whole, by
making the hole very large, then fishing in the egg with
embryo hook until able to hook it into the under mandible
then draw and work gently.

It requires only a very little practice to enable any per-
son to prepare and blow an egg or extract an embryo
nicely.

A " little practice" will be of more value to the col-
lector than volumes written on the subject.

BLOWING MACHINES, AUTOMATIC DRILLS, SUCTION
BULBS, &c. , have been with us a failure, we do not wish
to condemn the use of any realty meritorious instrument,
but as yet we have failed to find anything equal to a good
drill, blow-pipe and embryo hook. Fine scissors are often
very useful in cutting the embryo.

TO PACK EGGS FOB TRANSPORTATION.

Always use strong boxes, well made from some light
material.

Cigar boxes, if well made, answer the purpose very
well. The large sizes we do not consider as safe as the
smaller ones.

Should the cover tit inside of the end pieces of the
box, nail a small cleat across each end on the inside, thereby
preventing any possibility of the cover breaking in and
crushing the contents, which would otherwise almost in-
variably happen from the rough usage which the box is sure
to receive in the mails.

For orders or exchanges smaller than those required to
till a "50 " size cigar box we use round tin boxes ranging in
size from 1 oz. to 16 oz. The saving in postage by the use
of these boxes will more then pay the first cost. The 12
and 16 oz. size, although we use hundreds of them, at our
risk, we do not consider safe unless the boxes are first cov-
ered with a strip of pasteboard before the final wrapping
for the mail. Having prepared a suitable box for the spec-
imens, we proceeoT to pack them by wrapping each egg
carefully in a small roll of cotton. The eggs thus wrapped
can then be packed in layers, snugly, but not tightly, in the
box. Hundreds of eggs are broken through careless pack-
ing, and by trying to crowd in too many eggs into a small
space.

After wrapping your eggs in cotton if you must add
nn additional wrapper use a piece of thin paper, tissue is

BIRD'S EGGS, SUPPLIES, ETC. 77

best. Do not wind on several yards of thread, we know this
is a customary practice with many collectors, but it is both
a waste of time and material, and the eggs are far more
liable to become broken when unpacked than if wrapped
in the ordinary manner.

Pasteboard partitions should never be used unless the
sender wishes to be rewarded with a lot of broken eggs.
The same caution might also be given to collectors who are
in the habit of throwing in their eggs loosely, either in lay-
ers or in bulk. Large eggs can be packed in dry moss,
tow, oakum, or similar material.

Never use bran or sawdust, it will work in the holes
where the eggs are blown and will make them so solid that
they will jolt together and break. Hundreds of valuable
specimens have been broken every season through im-
proper packing, fully seventy-five per cent, of these break-
ages could have been avoided if the packers had only used
a little more care and judgement.

Useful hints, items, and instructions are given in every
number of the Young Oologist, a sixteen page monthly with
cover, which we publish on fine book paper at only 60 cts.
per year.

Any question of interest to the collector will be cheer-
fully answered through its columns.

Tlie first aim of this work is to render as popular and
attractive as possible, as well as to bring within a small
compass, the sum total of Hie bird life of Eastern North
America, The author has therefore given brief descrip-
tions, and for the most part full life histories, of all the
species commonly east of the Mississippi, giving special at-
tention to the songs and nesting, and dwelling upon the
curious and fascinating, of which there is so much in the
lives of these wonderful creatures. The narrative follows,
for the most part, the order of the seasons, and groups itself
about certain interesting localities, as Xiagara River and St.
Clair Flats, for instance. lie gives ;i good deal of attention
to migration, instinct, the facts of nidification, the special
ized forms and adaptations of structure in birds, etc., etc.,
endeavoring particularly to make all this readable.

In short, he has tried to meet a demand never yet met
in this country — to have a work on birds for everybody.
Me writes almost entirely from personal observation, incor-
porating in his work a full report for Western New York
and the adjoining regions of the Great Lakes, and a pretty
full report, for Nova Scotia, also a good deal of direct infor-
mation from Hudson's Bay, by means of an excellent cor-
respondent.
