THE ENTOMOI.OGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCEIL 
I have been thus explicit in the hope 
of renderin|r the plant more readily 
known to those who have given little 
attention to Botany. The day must 
come when Botany will be studied in 
connection with the insect-world, since it 
is found so essential to the right study of 
Entomology to know at a glance the 
food-plants of the various tribes of insect- 
life.
