I had an opportunity of returnin.g East this winter, and one of the points 

 I took up was the utilizing of the library at Guelph. They have a very lar.ge 

 and well equipped library there. Mr. Winn, who is President of the Montreal 

 Branch, and President of the parent Society for this year, understands the 

 situation of branch societies. W'e are not like the members at Guelph, who 

 have the library within 100 yards of them. We are many miles away, conse- 

 quently we are not able to get the books so readily. I am able to say now. 

 that all the members of any branch Society are able to write to Guelph and 

 obtain books from that library. Postage to and from will have to be paid 

 at our end. They have also a very excellent library at Montreal, the property 

 of the late H. H. Lyman. Mr. Winn has charge of this library, but is not 

 allowed to circulate books. He will, however, take extracts, and will forward 

 these at the request of our members. Therefore, supposing you wish to get 

 an extract from Volume 26, Xo. 2, of the "Canadian Entomologist," a reference 

 which your work has made you refer to, you will be able to write to Mr. 

 Winn for that reference, which will be written out for you and mailed. Mr. 

 Winn's address is 36 Springfield Avenue, West Mount, Montreal, P.Q. 



I would suggest therefore, that we devote $100.00 of our money to the 

 purchasing of books for our library; Thus, any member who is working on 

 any special group of insects, if he wishes to obtain some book wdiich costs a 

 sum of money, which he does not feel like expending himself, will be able to 

 use this money for purchasing the paper required. The President. Secretar3- 

 and Assistant Secretary, who mi.ght act as Librarian, will decide whether or 

 not it is advisable to purchase the book or paper. It will be one of our books, 

 and will remain the property of the Society, but it may be held by a inember 

 for such time as he has use for it. When he has dispensed with its service 

 he can return it to the liljrary. 1 briTi.g this up now as a su.g.gestion. but later 

 will frame a resolution covering the point. 



.■\ny matter dealin.g with the Librarv and the obtainin.g of books or circu- 

 lars is to be addressed to Williams Hugh, 316 Beckley .\vcnuc, Victoria. B. C. 



THE PUBLICATIONS. 



Doubtless in the minds of many of you there is some iiuestion as to how 

 our Bulletins are bein.g issued. Through the kindness of the Department of 

 .\,griculture, we have been able to have our bulletins printed by the Govern-
