Book Description
Excerpt from Report of Some Injurious Insects: Of the Year 1878 Fifty larvae were obtained from the six clover heads. Of these, ten were deposited in alcohol for more careful study than could be given them at the time; the remainder were placed in a small pot containing damp sand, in which they all buried themselves within an hour thereafter some entering it as quickly as the operation could be performed, and others after a longer or shorter preliminary travel.

Excerpt from Notes of Observations of Injurious Insects: Report, 1877 Whether much or little, those who will give the benefit of their knowledge in diminishing the great yearly loss from insect waste are doing good service to the country; and this first year's return shows how much may be gained by continuing the observations for the time which would be requisite to form fairly complete notes of treatment found successful generally, with the modifications required by each year's peculiar weather, or by soils and climates varying as widely as the range from Banfl' to South Devon.

Book Description
Excerpt from Notes of Observations of Injurious Insects: Report, 1879 At Sparham, near Norwich, the lowest temperature of the winter was 3 in the low-lying part of the parish, and 10 on the high ground, on December 25th. At my own stationat Isleworth the lowesttemperature was 10 .5; the lowest observed on grass was 9 .8 on January 12th. The earth temperatures at one foot deep sank to between 32 and 33 from December 24th to the 29th, and also from January 12th to February 6th. An idea being prevalent that "cold kills the grubs," I took the opportunity whilst the great cold tasted of examining the state of all larvae and pupae I could find fully exposed to its influence, whether unsheltered, under bark, or in frozen ground, and found that in all eases, even where the earth was frozen so hard that the mass had to he broken up with a hammer, and the larvae or pupae were perfectly rigid, that on thawing they did not appear to be in any way injured; and in the case of the larvae of the Cabbago Weevil (which was the only instance in which any immediate action was to be expected) they continued the operation of making their earth-cases for pupation (as is usual with this grub on disturbance from the gall) as if nothing had happened. Of these observations I give the details under the headings of the respective insects. In other respects the extreme severity of the winter was favourable to insect preservation, as large numbers were secured from bird attack under the snow or in the frost-bound ground; and also the excessive cold (as shown by the Phonological Report of the Meteorological Society) caused an almost unprecedented mortality amongst the birds; this especially noted amongst tho Turdidae and Starlings. The cold and wet spring subsequently retarded the nesting season, and further diminished the ordinary amount by the great numbers of eggs that were addled. The general returns do not show that any kind of injurious insect has been lessened in amount of appearance by the winter cold, excepting (possibly) the Turnip Fly. This has been little prevalent, but (conjecturally) this is rather owing to failure of the Turnip crops than direct weather influence, as noted in the return: "No Turnips, therefore no Fly."

Book Description
Excerpt from Report on Arasitic and Injurious Insects Sir, I have the honor to herewith furnish this report upon my investigations into entomological questions, carried out with the permission of the Government of New South Wales for the Governments of Victoria, South Australia, and Queensland, as well as this State, between the 7th July, 1907, and the 30th July, 1908. Furnished with credentials from the Australian States I represented, I was enabled to see the inner working of the Departments of Agriculture, Scientific Institutions, &c., visited in the different countries. In every country I met with unfailing kindness and courtesy from Government officials, scientific workers, British consuls, and many strangers. Everywhere I was complimented upon the enterprise shown by the Australian States in sending out a commission of investigation to obtain, first hand, information upon questions of such vital importance to the producers of Australia.
