BIRD CLUp At Saturday's meeting' of the Bine Club, James Thome read an article on the Crested Flycatcher, which described it as being1 eight and one; half indies long; upper parts, olive; underneath gray and yellow; crowr feathers, erectile. ^ The nest is made in tree or stump cavity or woodpecker hole, from sis to sixty feet up; is constructed of grass, rootlets, bits of bark, hair and pine needles; remarkable for the fact that it is almost always encircled with a cast off snake skin, probably as a ruse to frighten its enemies from the nest but this is odd as the nest is always placed in a cavity, where there la little light or none at all; No one really knows why this bird follows this peculiar practice eo it may be simply a whim jr fancy. The food of the Crested Flycatch er shows 94 per cent of animal mat ter and 6 per cent of vegetable. Beetles constitute one-sivth of its food, such as cottonboll and straw berry weevils and the plum curculio. Bugs constitute 14.26 per cent of the diet such as stinkbugs, tree and leaf hoppers, and cicadas, with a few as ?assin bugs. Grasshoppers, crickets mi katydids seem to be the favorite Foods. It is a very desirable bird to lave about the orchard or garden dace it does not attack any cultivat sd crop. NOTICE TO CREDITORS Having qualified as Administrators >f the Estate of Richard A.
