SEPTEMBER 



OVAl 



With fewer distractions, in the shape of freshly emerged Imagos, this month, 

 more attention may be given to the. search for eggs, especially when it is 

 found so many species are now obtainable in that condition. When eggs 

 have been obtained, they should not be kept "coddled up" in a close warm 

 place, but should be secured on, or near, the food-plant, fully exposed to the 

 weather, otherwise there will be great danger of their drying up.
