WHAT IS SAID OF US. 



Brief extracts from letters commenting on the field to be occupied by ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. 



Rev. H. C. McCook, D.D. " You have properly made the price a popular 

 one. Now, it must be worked up in a popular way." 

 A. G. Weeks, Jr., Esq. " With wishes for a successful career." 



Ottoman Dietz, Esq. "Accept my best wishes for success. We need an 

 active and practical journal." 



James Angus, Esq. "Although I am now past my three score and ten, my 

 entomological enthusiasm, though somewhat moderated by age, is still lively 

 enough to take a deep interest in this new enterprise. I believe it is pos- 



sible to popularize Entomology, and your prospective journal being a movement 

 in this direction, I hail it with delight." 



Frederick Blanchard, Esq. " It has always been a source of regret to me that 

 existing journals did not cultivate the field you propose to occupy. Backwoods 

 entomologists, like myself for instance, would like to know something of what 

 is going on in Entomology outside our own quarter of the globe." 



S. \\ . Williston, M.D. "I have often wished there was just such a publica- 

 tion, telling what was going on in the whole of the entomological world." 



Prof. W. F. Robinson. " I certainly wish your venture success." 

 John Akhurst, Esq. " I wish it unlimited success." 



Frank M. Jones, Esq. " Hoping for the entire success of the journal, which 

 is certainly needed." 



Prof. E. A. Popenoe. " I am much interested in the success of ' NEWS,' which 

 I hope to find filling a long-felt want." 



E. A. Schwarz, Esq. " I hope it will be a successful undertaking."
