Publisher's Synopsis

This little book has been written in fulfilment of a promise made many years ago. Again and again I have undertaken the work, only to lay it aside be cause I felt the need of greater experience and wider knowledge. I do not now feel that this deficiency has been by any means fully supplied, but in some direc tions it has been removed through the kindness Of Dr. F. H. Chittenden of the Bureau of Entomology, who wrote the chapter on insect enemies, and of W. A. Orton of the Bureau of Plant Industry, United States Department of Agriculture, who wrote the chapter on diseases of tomatoes.
