The report of the Treasurer shows that the Branch is flourishing financially. 



The Council would again urge upon the members increased activity in the collection and study of 

 the insects of all orders in this locality, and especially of the more neglected ones, in order that we may 

 obtain a better knowledge of those occurring here. 



Only about 1,400 species are as yet recorded, and this number could be very materially increased by 

 even one summer's cai'eful work. 



Your Council would suggest that occasional collecting excursions be held during the coming summer, 

 as a means of stimulating the interest of the members in this science. 



Respectfully submitted on behalf of the Council. 



H. H. LYMAN, President.
