The main work of the Entomologist for this month, was in connection 
with the shipments of tumble bugs from abroad which have been taken 
charge of on arrival and cared for until it was possible to turn the beetles 
out. Three consignments were handled in the month, two from Mexico and 
one from Australia, and all three lots were liberated at Olinda, Maui. 
Spare time was devoted to a study of the principal pineapple pests.
