DAPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE,

Washington, Dec. 8, 1884.
Sir: This Catalogue of the Entomological Exhibit of the Department
of Agriculture for the Woi'ld's Industrial and Cotton Centennial Exposi-
tion at Xew Orleans has been prepared, upon your approval, with the
object of increasing the general usefulness of the exhibit. In its prepa-
ration the aim has been to add such information as the specimens or
articles themselves do not convey.
The collection is made up of the following sections :
1. IXSECTS IXJURIOUS TO AGRICULTURE,
Arranged according to the particular plant and the particular part of
the plant affected, and containing, as far as possible, the different states
of growth of the insect, its enemies and parasites, a statement of the
remedies or preventives available and a reference to the chief articles
where full information can be found upon it. These references are,
principally, to Government and State reports, to which the farmer will be
most likely to have access. To this section of the exhibit I have added
much material from my private collection whenever the material from
the Department collection was insufficient, and a few specimens have also
been added by ]\Ir. Sam'l Hexsiiaw, of Boston, whose aid in the prepa-
ration of the exhibit and of the catalogue I take pleasure in here
acknowledging. The catalogue of eight cases of insects injurious to
forest trees is omitted for the reason that the collection did not arrive in
time from Edinburgh, where I exhibited it last summer.
2. Insecticide Substances.
In the catalogue of this collection the aim has been to add, as briefly
as possible, a statement of the method of using such substances, so that
whenever in the first section a particular substance is recommended for a
particular insect, the reader can t'jrn to this second section for farther
details.
3. Insecticidi: Machinery and Contrivances for destroying
Insects.
In the catalogue of this section there is also added such information as
will add to the instructive value of the exhibit, and it will be noted that
a large proportion of the more useful contrivances are such as have been
designed and perfected in the -work of the Bureau or of the U. S. Ento-
mological Commission during the past four years, and chiefly by the aid
of Dr. W. S. Barnard, who has had charge of this part of my Avork.
4. Bee-culture.
This collection is designed to show all the more valuable methods and
contrivances now in use among advanced apiarians, and I am under obli-
gations to Prof. A. J. Cook, of the Michigan Agricultural College, for
his aid in getting the material together.
5. Silk-culture.
In this collection the aim has been to make the exhibit instructive,
rather than full in detail, for the reason that other parties, and especially
the Woman's Silk-culture Association of Philadelphia, propose a full ex-
hibit in the Woman's Department of the Exposition.
The collection includes, in addition to the aforegoing, a number of
framed i^lates, both colored and plain, that have been prepared in the
work of the Bureau, and a number of my own enlarged colored diagrams
of some of the more important injurious insects, all of Avhich it has been
deemed unnecessary to catalogue.
I have the honor to remain.
Yours, respectfully,
C. V. Riley,
Entomologist.

I]%SE€TICIB>ES.
Insecticidos of leading impoitauce are riliown in this collection. The
method in which each one is niix( d or applied is generally stated under
its name.

spray.
Arisenic'ul Mixtures.
For fuller particulars .see Bull. 3, U. S. Ent. Comm. on the Cotton Worm ; the
report of the Department on the same subject, and the reports of the Entomologist
since 1878.
351. ARSENIC.
The White Arsenic as a powder is mixed in baits for destroying insects.
It is also used on field crops. To 20 lbs. of flour i lb. of arsenic is added
and thoroughly mixed. This is then applied by a sifter or blower. A
solution of 8 ounces in 40 to 80 gallons of water may be sprayed.
Arsenic scalds the plants to such an extent that one of the two follow-
ing is generally preferred.

By a few quarts in a barrel of water a solution is made to sprinkle plants
as a preventive. In 1 gal. water 1 qt., is dissolved [with heat] to form a
stronger solution, for use in the ground among roots and on the foliage.
The smoke from burning coal tar is used as a repellant.
