 disease known as the White Pine Blister Rust (Peridermium strobi Kleb) 

 exists and is prevalent in portions of the eastern part of the United States 

 as far west as and including Minnesota ; and

 great white pine forests of the State of Montana through shipments of five- 

 leaved pines, and currant and gooseberry plants ; 



NOW, THEREFORE, I, S. V. Stewart, Governor of the State of Montana, 

 under and by virtue of the authority conferred upon me by Chapter 61 of 

 the Session Laws of the Thirteenth Legislative Assembly, do hereby declare 

 and proclaim that a quarantine be and hereby is established against the 

 importation into the State of Montana of white pine (Pinus strobus), stone 

 pine (P. cembra), limber pine (P. flexilis) and any other five-leaved pines, 

 and currant and gooseberry plants (Ribes and Grossularia) from any part 

 of the United States east of and including the States of Minnesota, Iowa, 

 Missouri, Arkansas and Louisiana. 



All quarantine guardians and deputy state horticultural inspectors are 

 hereby instructed and required to refuse admission into Montana of any 

 shipments of any of the five-leaved pines above mentioned, and currant and 

 gooseberry plants. It shall be the duty of the deputy horticultural inspectors.
