NOTES OF OBSERVATIONS 
with us this year.” At Kew the Fly is mentioned by Mr. Rolfe as 
- entirely absent or unnoticed ; and I only observed it in small numbers 
in the adjacent district of Islewortli. I am informed by Mr. J. Chambers, 
Hounslow, that the application of hops fresh from the breweries is 
found very useful round Hounslow in keeping down Fly on the 
Cabbage crops. The reader will notice that Fly has been little noticed 
in the returns, excepting in the four southern counties of Scotland, 
and in some degree in the adjacent county of Northumberland.

unnoticed in Turnip crops.
