Abstract
THIS book shows that the valuable work which is being done in South Australia by Mr. Frazer Crawford, Inspector under the Vine-Protection Act, is being done on a still greater scale in New Zealand. It affords an example of the great service which may be rendered by plain and sound publications on the subject of injurious insect attacks in the colonies. In the mother country the works which have been prepared for the Agricultural Department of the Privy Council by Mr. Whitehead, and Miss E. A. Ormerod's constant valuable publications on economic entomology, show what can be achieved in this field.
