~Nothinsg needed to make this a complete guide to the study of our American inects has been omitted."-M. A. Bigelow in the Independent. AMERICAN INSECTS
BY VERNON L. KELLOGG
Professor in Leland Stanford, Jr., University With 812 figures and n colored plates.
647 pp. $5.00 net (postage 34
cents). A comprehensive account of the natural history of the insects of America, written simply yet seriously so as to be acceptable to the general read- ing public as well as to professional students of nature. All of the insect orders represented in our country are treated in this single volume, which, despite its comprehensiveness and its profusion of illustrations, is so compactly made as to be in no way unwieldy. The book may be used for continuous reading by those wishing to inform themselves concerning the kinds and habits of American insects in general, or as a reference manual for authoritative information on classification, specific remedies for certain pests, special discussions of structural, physiological or ecological phases of insect biology, etc. ~ "Certain to be widely useful . . . readable and profusely illustrated. It gives a great
amount of information about the insects of this country, in such a manner that it is available to any intelligent person . . . other works are necessary for particular purposes ; but if I were asked to name a single work for a beginner, who at the same time meant business, I should not hesitate to recommend this new product of Stanford University."-T.
