Webster, 409 Was.h.i.+ngton Street, Boston. $7.50.
Especially designed for use in the determination of species.
"Ill.u.s.trated Natural History: Birds." Rev. J.G. Wood. Routledge, London, 1861. Price about $4.00. Get the original edition.
To a bird taxidermist this is the most valuable book ever published in a single volume, because of its wealth of excellent ill.u.s.trations. Of special value in mounting strange foreign birds. Beware of the later editions.
"Studer's Birds of North America." Ill.u.s.trated by Theodore Jasper. Large royal quarto. Jacob H. Studer, New York. $25.00.
Contains 119 plates, and a colored figure of every species of North American bird known at the date of its publication. A notable work. The ill.u.s.trations are of great value to young taxidermists as models by which to mount birds.
"Birds of North America." J.J. Audubon.
This superb work is out of print; rare and costly. The octavo edition is to be found in most large libraries, however, and every bird taxidermist should at least know where the copy nearest to him is to be found, and how to gain access to it in time of need.
"Oology of New England." E.A. Capen. Sold by Frank B. Webster, 409 Was.h.i.+ngton Street, Boston. $8.75.

"The Fishery Industries of the United States." Section I. By G. Brown Goode and a.s.sociates. 2 vols. Complete and exhaustive, both in text and plates, and very valuable. Government publication. Sold at cost by the U.S. Fish Commission, Was.h.i.+ngton.

MISCELLANEOUS.
"The Sportsman's Library," as advertised by the _Forest and Stream_ Publis.h.i.+ng Company, 318 Broadway, New York, contains an attractive and valuable selection of books on subjects of special interest to the sportsman, naturalist, and traveller. It includes books by specialists on such subjects as "Camping and Trapping," "Hunting and Shooting," "Angling,"
"Boating and Yachting," "Guide-Books and Maps," "Horse," "Kennel," "Natural History," and miscellaneous works. The list, as a whole, is an excellent one to select from.
Of course no one with a spark of interest in hunting and the natural history of the higher vertebrates will be without _Forest and Stream_--a whole sportsman's and naturalist's library in itself,--or _The Field_, or _Sports Afield_. No young ornithologist can get along without his best friend, the _Ornithologist and Oologist_, and it would indeed be rank heresy for the professional bird-man to ignore the stately and infallible _Auk_.
