Transcription
Lincoln, Nebr., May 1, 1903. s, Board Agriculture ownville, Nebr. Sir:- Your favor of April. 305h regarding my MSS. for your annual report at hand. In reply I would state that I have thought best to furnish another instatment on our native grasshoppers since there seems to be continued grasshopper depredations in various portions of the state. Neither the legislature nor authorities connected with the State University have made any provision for work relating to insect control within the state. No funds have been provided save in connection with instructional work inside the isntitution and during the school year, hence in order to avail myself of this means of publicity, I have decided upon your report for the purpose. If I can have about three weeks more time for the purpose of preparation I would like it, and I hope to be able to occupy not to exceed 40 to 50 pages. There will be a number of illustrations. My bird report goes to the Horticultural Society this year. Yours very truly,
