 into th.- .M.-alyJ{ig an.l \V....lly Aphis, whi.ii 

 infest th.' r.iots of so many plants in greenhouses 

 an.l r.i.k.'ii.-s. Th.-r.- are sev.-i-al insects con- 

 i'ern.'d. and the lii-st thing to det.'rmim" is how 

 far I'a.h of these jiests attacks plants in general, 

 (U- 1.. what .-xt.-nt .-ach is lin.ited in its fo.xl plants. 

 The ultimate .iuti;om<- hop.-d, f.ir is a simple 

 l>i-a.cti(al remedy. 



'I'll.' inv.-st igatoi' would he v.-i-y gi-at.-fiil for 

 iid'ected plants, or for six-cim-ns oi- infected, r.i.its 

 .>f plants, with th.- names of the jilants. The 

 impiiry wouhl be still more assisted if those 

 having infected jilants would i»erm.it the investi- 

 gator to inspect them. 



.Specimens and incpiiries may b.- sent to
