The white flies are then shown in action on the plant, and by skilful micro- photography their life cycle is shown, to- gether with the means by which they injure the plant. A natural parasite—a small species of wasp—is also shown in action by means of micro-photography, and its method of parasitism is clearly brought out. The film concludes with a pictorial demonstration of the means for ridding tomato glass-houses infested with white fly by the use of hydrocyanic gas. . . The commentary . . . presupposes an elementary knowledge of the normal stages of the average life cycle of insects. For class-room work this portion of the film would need to be watched through several repetitions before all the details were fully grasped. At the same time, the film would, with considerable comments by the teacher, form an excellent demonstration for entomological purposes. . .
