XIX—Report of The Entomological Society of Ontario. 
Presented through the HONORARY SECRETARY. 
This Society held its forty-sixth annual meeting in the Ontario 
Agricultural College, Guelph, on the 4th and 5th days of November 
last. There was a large attendance, members from Ottawa, Toronto, 
Montreal, Port Hope, Trenton, Grimsby and Guelph being present. 
Important subjects were brought before the meeting by the district 
directors and discussed: the destruction of the cut-leaf birch trees by 
the Red-necked Borer; attempts to control the Tussock Moth; the 
extension of the San José Scale to Prince Edward County; the work 
of the Blackberry Saw-fly; that of the Spruce Gall-louse; the impor- 
tation of Brown-tail Moth larve on French nursery stock; and other 
matters of interest to fruit growers and foresters. 
In the evening a public meeting was held in the Massey Hall 
Auditorium, which was well filled with students of the College, both 
male and female, and a number of visitors from the town, together 
with members of the Society, gathered in session. “Dr. C. Gordon 
Hewitt, the newly-appointed Entomologist of the Experimental Farms 
of the Dominion, gave a highly interesting and instructive address, 
illustrated by a series of admirable lantern pictures, on ‘House Flies 
and Their Allies.’ The College orchestra added much to the enjoyment 
of the evening by the musical selections they rendered.” (Can. Ent. 
Vol. XLI, p. 429.)
