Report of the Entomologist. 1Y 



Station Extension or Nixon bill. The results of these investiga- 

 tions are embodied in tlie following bulletins, issued during the 

 past year: 



93. The Cigar-Case-Bearer in Western New York, 

 104. Climbing Cutworms in Western New York. 

 A large share of our time has been occupied with the corre- 

 spondence of the division. We have always taken great pains to 

 give every correspondent the latest and best information, for we 

 believe this is one of the most important phases of our work. The 

 correspondence has nearly doubled during the past year. Six 

 hundred and fifty letters of inquiry regarding insects and their in- 

 juries were answered; one hundred twenty of these answers were 

 prepared for publication and have appeared in the columns of 

 agricultural journals. 



Kespectfully submitted, 



M. Y. SLINGERLAND, 



Assistant Entomologist.
