Riassunto

Excerpt from Reports of Observations of Injurious Insects and Common Farm Pests: During the Year 1884, With Methods of Prevention and Remedy

Before submitting the observations of the past season to the contributors to whose kind assistance I am indebted for the information, I beg to offer my best thanks for their courteous co-operation, and to request its continuance. I wish also to offer my thanks for the assistance cordially rendered by the press.

It will be noticed that the observations have now been extended in some degree to insects affecting cattle and farm stock, and a slight corresponding alteration has been made in the title of the Report.

During the eight years in which our crop insects have been reported on, such full observation has been sent in of some of the regular yearly attacks that it seems to leave but little more to say with regard to these but there are some points which are shown constantly and plainly stiil to want attention as the very starting-points of a large part of our yearly attacks, and one of these is treatment of grass and clover-lea before breaking up. Half or more of the ravages of the Wireworm and Daddy Long legs grubs arise from these being in the land before the new crop is put in, and any notes of treatment to prevent egg-laying, or of applications or treatment to destroy the grubs in breaking up the land, would be very acceptable, as tending to lessen one great source of loss.
