Description: Life histories of the tiger, ladybird and Japanese beetle. Many rarely observed events in their lives are presented; some comic, some tragic. The economic relation of beetles to man is brought out. Picture and narrative demonstrate how some beetles have been pressed into the service of man, while others are harmful and must be destroyed through ceaseless warfare carried on by man.
