We notice that the Bay State Oologist appears in an improved though “condensed” form this month. Success.


Datas, 5x8, neatly printed, good paper, bound in lots of fifty, with flexible cardboard covers, 50 cents each in exchange.


The Calmar Exchange, published by our friend S. C. Scott, of Calmar, Iowa, comes to our table bright and fresh in its eight-page form and new dress. Those interested in the subjects of which it treats will find it an excellent paper at a small price.


Every person sending me 50 cents for one year’s subscription to the Hawkeye Ornithologist and Oologist will receive free six varieties of rare Iowa minerals, labeled. Send postal note.
