MISSISSIPPI. — Every nursery in the State must be inspected before No- 

 vember 1 of each year, and every bundle, bale or package of stock sold or 

 transported must be accompanied by a copy of the certificate of inspection 

 attached in a conspicuous place. Every person or firm from other states 

 wishing to ship nursery stock into Mississippi must file with the entomolo- 

 gist a copy of the certificate, which shall state that the nursery is properly 

 equipped for fumigating all nursery stock. A copy of the certificate shall 

 be attached to every bundle, bale or package of nursery stock delivered 

 within the State. Every nurseryman must state that all nursery' stock 

 shipped into this State will be fumigated with hydrocyanic acid gas. R. W. 

 Harned, Entomologist, Agricultural College, Miss. 



MISSOURI. — Nurseries are inspected annually. Each nursery outside of 

 Missouri shipping stock into Missouri must apply at the office of the Chief 

 Inspector for a permit, which will be issued upon filing the necessary papers 

 and copy of their nursery inspection certificate. No fee is charged for the 

 permit. All agents or salesmen for outside nurseries must apply for an 

 agent's permit. Every package of nursery stock shipped into the State 

 must be clearly labeled with the name of the consignor, consignee, state- 

 ment of contents and a certificate showing that the stock therein contained 

 has been inspected where grown by a duly authorized inspector and found 

 to be apparently free from dangerously injurious insect pests and plant 

 diseases. The transportation companies are not permitted to deliver nursery 

 stock unless so labeled. Leonard Haseman. Entomologist and Chief Inspec- 

 tor, University of Missouri, Columbia, Mo.

 grown. No transportation company shall deliver any nursery stock lacking 

 such official certificate of inspection. S. B. Doten, Director, Experiment 

 Station. Reno. Nevada.
