DEAR SIR:—
Your communication at hand, together with photograph, for which you will please accept thanks. These will appear in an early issue of The Homestead.
I have been quite interested in special bulletin from your department No. 3, entitled, “A Plea for the Protection of Our Birds.” We are publishing a monthly paper, The Farm Gazette, copy of which I send you today, and it has occurred to me that a summary of this press bulletin would make interesting material for this paper. If you have the cut from which the print was made on the front page of this leaflet I shall consider it a favor if you will kindly furnish it. It will be returned to you in good condition after being used in the April issue. Thanking you in advance, I am, Very truly yours, Jas. Atkinson Editor Homestead.
