INSFXT PESTS OF FARM, GARDEN AND ORCHARD. By E. DWIGHT 

 SANDERSON. Second Edition Revised and Enlarged by LEONARD MARION 

 PEAIRS. New York: John Wiley and Sons, Inc., London: Chapman 

 & Hall, Limited. 1921. 12mo, pp. vi, 707; 602 figures in the text. 

 A number of recent American texts on the insect enemies of cultivated 

 plants are now available. If a small volume, in which the insects are 

 considered from the standpoint of their own taxonomic groups, is de- 

 sired, there is Prof. Herbert Osborn's Agricultural Entomology (1916). 

 Prof. Wm. Lochhead's Class Book of Economic Entomology (1919) is 

 more extended and deals first with insects injurious to each crop or 

 plant, with cross references to Part III on the taxonomic insectan 

 groups. Prof. Washburn's Injurious Insects and Useful Birds (1918) 

 and Prof. O'Kane's Injurious Insects, Horf lo Recognize and Control 

 Them (1912) are still larger books in which the treatment is by the 

 objects damaged. Much more detailed, but of narrower scope, are 

 Slingerland and Crosby's Manual of Fruit Insects (1914) and Prof. 

 G. W. Herrick's Insects Injurious to the Household and Annoying to 

 Man (1914). in both of which the sequence of topics is that of the 

 things injured. The last two works presuppose, or at least do not 

 present, a general sketch of insect structure and development. In the 

 other four such a general account is included and this explains the 

 relative number of pages devoted to insects in general and to general
