Excerpt from Outlines of Entomology

If the writer shall succeed in introducing this delightful branch of natural history to even a few of those who are surrounded by the bean ful and interesting objects discussed and if in these pages the victim of insect depredations obtains a few hints concerning the vulnerable stages in the lives of his tiny but collectively potent foes, the work will not have been done in vain.

In conclusion, I must acknowledge my great indebtedness to the works of Dr. C.V. Riley, U. S. Entomologist, Dr. A. S. Packard, whose Guide and Entomology for Beginners are so admirably adapted to the use of those desiring a thorough knowledge of the structure of in sect. Forms, and to Prof. Comstock's more technical and elaborate Intro duction.
