OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 
“A second edition of Miss Ormerod’s work, highly valued by scientific 
agriculturists.”— Times. 
“ Every farmer, gardener, and fruit-grower should have a copy of this 
excellent five-shilling Manual in his library, in order that he may know 
his enemies, and the best of ascertained methods for defeating them.”— 
Agricultural Gazette. 
“ The mere mention of the issue of this volume should be enough to 
secure for it a hearty reception.”— Marie Lane Express. 
“ The most valuable work which has been published in England on this 
important matter.”— Bell's Weekly Messenger. 
“ Admirably illustrated, and should have a place on the parlour-shelf of 
every farmer and fruit- or tree-grower in the land.”— Farming World. 
“ Miss Ormerod has now compiled a most useful and valuable Manual 
of Injurious Insects and methods of prevention.”— North British Agri¬ 
culturist. 
“ Eegarding the volume as a whole, it may be said that it embraces in 
its 400 pages more practical information of use to the British cultivator, 
upon the subject with which it is concerned, than any other work in 
existence.”— Morning Post. 
“As a guide to the farmer in the protection of his produce, it is of the 
most real value. It is above everything clear, lucid, and intelligible.”— 
Worcester Herald. 
“ The most recent discoveries are embodied in the work before us; and 
few can rightly appreciate the vast amount of labour necessary to compress 
into one volume, and reproduce in a plain succinct style, the result of 
observations made during a period of ten years of unceasing research.”— 
Farmer's Gazette.
