NURSERY AGENTS AND LICENSES. 



The laws relating to nursery agents were changed by the leg- 

 islature of 191 1 so that now the agent is required to give a fee 

 of ten dollars in order to sell stock in the State. As a result, 

 the number of agents licensed since July, 1911, has greatly 

 decreased and only about fifty are listed in the office. Many 

 nurserymen outside of the State have told their agents that the 

 law is unconstitutional and cannot be enforced and not to pay 

 attention to it. 



The following is a list of states that have a fee or bond law:
