INTRODUCTION. Although corn is king in Nebraska, our crops of smallgrains are not insignificant. The insect enemies of wheat, oat),barley, and rye therefore demand our attention nearly or quite asmuch as do those which attack corn. Accordingly, during thepast year much time has been given to the study of this class ofinsect pests. While many of the species are identical for thedifferent crops, the nature of the plants themselves being unlike,it necessarily follows that the mode of attack among these ene-mies must vary somewhat in each case. This being true, somepains has been taken to treat of them according to their host-plants. While it is not claimed that this paper is complete or evenoriginal, it cannot strictly be termed a compilation. All that thewriter hopes in its presentation is that it may be of some littlevalue to those for whom it is inten
