Naturally the out¬door aviary is the ideal situation for breeding birds, but there are many which will breed in smaller cages when provided with proper conditions.
Probably the most satisfactory birds for small-cage breeding are some of the foreign birds University finches.Cats and Birds. There is no question that cats do stalk and kill birds, but cats are an insignif¬icant factor in overall bird mortality. To cite two of a number of biological studies of the stomach contents of cats, only 6 of 50 cats in Wisconsin had eaten birds as their last meal, and birds provided a final repast for only 4% of a group of cats in Oklahoma. Wildlife authori¬ties insist that other birds—jays, for example-kill more birds than do cats. Moreover, cats are themselves the prey of some birds, like the great horned owl.

On The Other Hand See Foreign Birds Fleet:
The largest of the fleet, the FIAT 1400, will be found very comfortable indeed, but not so hard to navigate as the Cadillac, Lincoln or Chrysler, and even the diminutive 500-C, the Topolino or Mickey Mouse of the fleet, is not un¬comfortable as I know from having driven one.

On April 16, 1917, ten days after the United States entered the war, the Emergency Fleet Cor¬poration was organized, its duty being to provide the largest possible merchant tonnage in the short¬est possible time.
