Irsect collectors will find the following method of
killing the insects they wish TO preserve, of the
most convenient of any they have ever tried. Dis
solve as much cyanide Of potash in small ysl of water
as will hold in solution, and keep tightly corked,
and it will always remain in good order for use When
you catch fly, moth, insect of any kind, or beauti-
full butterfly that would be injured in utterDg, dip
needle point in the solution and pick your captive just
under the wrg or into the vital parts of the body and
see how qaick and calmly they will lay down and die.
