PLANT SHIPMENTS TO MICHIGAN. 



Agricultural College Postoffice, Feb. 

 2.5, 1S9S. — As there seems to be some 

 misunderstanding regarding Act 137. 

 Michigan Laws of 1897, known as the 

 San .Jose Scale Law, in relation to the 

 shipment of plants from without the 

 state, the construction placed upon it 

 by the undersigned, in whose hands 

 the enforcement of the law has been 

 placed by the State Board of Agricul- 

 ture, is hereby given: 



The intention of the law was that it 

 should be limited to nursery stock, and 

 except in one section it is so limited, 

 and although the section of the law re- 

 lating to the duties of transportation 

 companies under the act does not con- 

 tain the limiting phrase, we shall con- 

 sider that the receiving and deliver- 

 ing of greenhouse plants and cut flow- 

 ers is in no way affected liy this law. 



In the enforcement of the law we 

 shall only hold transportation com- 

 panies responsible for failing to com- 

 ply with the provisions of the law that 

 relate to the shipment of "trees, 

 shrubs, vines and plants commonly 

 known as nursery stock," and green- 

 house plants and cut flowers will not 

 be so considered. 



I. H. BUTTERFIELD. 

 Secretary State Board of Agriculture. 



W. W. TRINE, 

 State Inspector of Nurseries and 

 Orchards. 

 The undersigned hereby certify to 

 the above intention of the 'law, and ap- 

 prove of the foregoing construction. 



C. J. MONROE, 

 Member and Vice-President, State 

 Board of Agriculture. 



CHAS. W. GARFIELD, 

 Member State Board of Agriculture. 

 ROBT. D. GRAHAM, 

 Member of Michigan Legislature, of 

 Legislative Committee of the same in 

 relation to Horticulture, and of the 

 Legislative Committee of the State 

 Horticultural Society: also intro- 

 ducer of the Nursery Law. 

 R. MORRILL, 

 President State Horticultural Society, 

 and Chairman Legislative Commit- 

 tee of same. 



(The above official decision of the 

 Michigan authorities was obtained 

 by Mr, J. G. Hancock. Grand Haven, 

 Mich., from whom we received a 

 copy. — Ed.) 



The key to success is proper ven- 

 tilation and watering. The key to 

 proper ventilation is the Evans' 

 Challenge Ventilating Apparatus. 

 Works easily, does the work right, 

 built to last, always satisfactory. 

 No toy imitation but a machine to 

 do its work and do it well. Much 

 the cheapest in the end. Quaker 

 City Machine Co., Richmond, Ind.
