Insects Injurious to Staple Crops is a comprehensive book written by E. Dwight Sanderson that discusses the various types of insects that can cause damage to staple crops. The book covers a wide range of crops, including corn, wheat, rice, cotton, and tobacco, and provides detailed information about the insects that can attack them. Sanderson delves into the life cycles, feeding habits, and behavior of these insects, as well as the damage they can cause to the crops. He also provides information on how to identify and control these pests, including both chemical and non-chemical methods. The book is written in a clear and accessible style and is aimed at farmers, growers, and other professionals in the agriculture industry. It is a valuable resource for anyone looking to protect their crops from insect damage and ensure a successful harvest.1908. From the Preface: In preparing the following pages the author has been more and more impressed by the fact that for the control of most of the worst insect pests of our staple crops, the farmer must depend very largely upon general methods of farm practice. This being the case, it is essential that he have a correct knowledge of the pest to be combated; such a knowledge of its life history as will make plain the reason for the effect of any given procedure against it.
