grape vine, of the apple tree, and a long list of small fruit plants are 
all subject to the ravages of numerous destructive insect foes, some 
of which are easily dealt with, and others so difficult that to overcome 
them is still a difficult problem in our road to success. 
In view of all this, we feel the necessity of appealing to our pro- 
fessional friends, who are students of science, to aid us in solving 
our problems. Already we practical men are much indebted to 
scientists for the practical turn which they have given their investi- 
gations, and we venture to hope that, in the near future, they will 
place us under still deeper obligations along the line here indicated. _
