ANNUAL REPORT OF THE 



Off. Doc. 



The woi'k of inspection was completed about the middle of De- 

 cember, I'JUl, and shows that there were one hundred and thirty-one 

 nurseries examined. Of the total number, twenty-nine were examin- 

 ed the second time, and five the third time. 



Out of the total number inspected, one hundred and twenty-one 

 were granted certificates to sell and ship stock, and ten were re- 

 fused. Of the thirty-four nurseries having the second and third in- 

 spections, there were twenty-six granted certificates. Tnis last 

 statement is of a great deal more importance than is really apparent, 

 and the law accomplishes the part which it is primarily intended. 

 The statement shows that there were twenty-six certificates granted 

 out of a total of thirty-four nurseries having more than one inspec- 

 tion, and sets forth the important fact that these nurseries were sub- 

 jected to treatment sometime between the first and subsequent in 

 spections, and that all dangerously injurious insect pests were en- 

 tirely eradicated. 



The following is a tabulated form of the counties containing nur- 

 series in the State, with the number of nurseries and acreage com- 

 prised in each:
