ZOOLOGY AND ENTOMOLOGY. 43'. 



ment Station, and so the work in these departments, which has previously 

 been reported in this place, will now appear in the report of the Station. 



OUTSIDE WORK. 



During the past year, I not only attended and addressed two of the 

 Farmers' Institutes in our State, but also the Shiawassee County Stock 

 Breeders' Association of which I was President and the State Horticultural 

 Society at its February meeting. I was also engaged to lecture before the 

 annual meeting of the New York State Agricultural Society, and three 

 other Institutes of that State. I attended and lectured before the North 

 American Bee Keepers' Association at the annual meeting held at Colum- 

 bus, Ohio. In February I was induced by special request to publish my 

 experience and views on the "Silo and Silage." I published an edition of 

 3,000 copies, 2,600 of which were sold in less than four months. I spent 

 much of the winter vacation re-writing, enlarging and revising my "Injuri- 

 ous Insects" which I hope to publish within the nest year.
