Synopsis

Excerpt from Manual of Vegetable-Garden Insects

IN the present work we have attempted to bring together in concise and usable form what is known in regard to the habits, life history and control of the insect enemies of vegetable-garden crops in the United States and Canada. Much of this infor mation has been published in technical journals and in the bulletins and cirars of the State Experiment Stations and Federal Government, where it is available only to the special student who has access to the few large libraries that collect and preserve this type of literature. We have endeavored thoroughly to digest this mass of material and present it in a form adapted to the needs of the gardener and vegetable grower.

In regard to methods of control we have tried to eliminate as far as possible useless and impracticable recommendations and include only those found to be effective under commercial conditions or such as would seem to be worthy of trial. It has seemed better to state frankly that the problem of control in certain cases has not been solved than to suggest remedies that would lead to disappointment.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
