JOY FLORAL CO., '^^ffi^^ 



ican Rose Spciety and the Department 

 of Agriculture, at Arlington, Va. This, 

 of course, will mean that we shall not 

 have suAicient bud wood of any variety 

 to use before 1923, as the plans for our 

 first plantings, which will probably be 

 made at Bell, Md., on sandy loam, and 

 at Arlington, Va., on clay soil, call for 

 at least fifty plants of each variety in 

 each of the fourteen stocks, or, roughly 

 speaking, 700 plants of each variety in 

 each location. Next year, however, we 

 will use one variety, Columbia, as we 

 have sufiicient bud wood of this variety 

 to use. It will give us some prelimi- 

 nary information on its behavior on all 

 the stock. 



So you see, even this early in the 

 game, our activities are varied and we 

 are only able to undertake a few of the 

 great number which should be under- 

 taken. We hope we may be able from 

 time to time to find something that may 

 be of value. We must work in close co- 

 operation with the nurserymen of the 

 country; in fact, our success will be gov- 

 erned in large measure by their co- 

 operation and assistance. 



CAN SHIP INTO CALIFORNIA. 



There has been considerable apprehen- 

 sion as to the enforcement of section 

 2139 J of the political code of Califor- 

 nia, governing the importation of nurs- 

 ery stock, trees, plants, vines and 

 shrubs, from other states into Califor- 

 nia, the law demanding a fee of $10 for 

 a permit and a bond of $1,000, condi- 

 tional on the faithful discharge of the 

 obligation. Needless to say, this law is 

 within the restraint of trade, because 

 practically preventing shipment into the 

 state from other states. Touching its 

 interpretation and application on the 

 part of the California department of 

 agriculture, the following opinion has 

 been obtained by the California Associa- 

 tion of Nurserymen from Lee A. Strong, 

 chief quarantine officer of the state: 



"For the information of the nursery- 

 men of California, the state department 

 of agriculture will not refuse delivery to 

 any plants arriving in California from 

 another state for noncompliance with 

 section 2319 J of the political code. This 

 section specifically relates to the regis- 

 tration of nurserymen outside of Cali- 

 fornia who desire to ship plants into 

 California. 



"Noncompliance with the law con- 

 stitutes a misdemeanor, but the misde- 

 meanor being committed outside of Cali- 

 fornia, the California law would not be 

 operative; inasmuch as the entry of the 

 plants is not conditioned upon com-
