REPORT OF THE COTOCIL. 



At the expiration of this the third year of the existence of the Entomological Society of 

 Ontario, it again becomes the duty of your Council to submit a Report of the state of the 

 Society. 



Owing to various causes, such as pressure of business and the great distance between their 

 respective homes, the members of your Council have not been able to meet together so often 

 as could have been wished, both for the interests of the Society and for the promotion of 

 that good feeling and mutual intercourse which it is so desirable to maintain. 



It is gratifying, however, to be able to report the continued progress of the Society, and 

 to know that its efforts are being recognised as tending to further those agricultural interests 

 which form the main source of wealth of our fair Dominion. 



It is with pleasure that your Council refer to the proposed formation of a Branch of our 

 Society at Montreal, and we feel sure that the members generally will gladly welcome this 

 addition to our ranks. 



The publication of Thb Entomologist is still regularly maintained,and this termination 

 of our fiscal year also brings us towards the close of the fifth volume. It is much to be regretted 

 that we still experience a diflficulty in getting our members to assist the Editor by furnishing contri- 

 butions from their pens. We feel sure that there are many amongst us whose powers of obser- 

 vation and daily experience of insect life might be rendered most valuable and instructive to 

 others by the aid of printers' ink, and we would again earnestly appeal to the members of the 

 Society to come forward and enable the Editor to keep up the regular issue of our periodical, 

 and to supply him with their notes on anything they may deem of interest to the lovers of 

 Entomology. 



Submitted on behalf of the Council by 



Edward Baynes Reed, 



Seer dary -Treasurer.
