With the earth covered by snow, packed solid with the weight of many winds end the changing temperature, the birds are hard put to find food. Without wasting our supply we can by a liitie kindness aid in preserving the protectors of the year's crops and at the same time perform a function of charity. The crumbs from the table thrown in the yard each day will provide a sump tuous ration for the birds who winter in the north.
