Jn New Zealand the question is lieinj; 

 discussed as stron>ily as here, Itut the 

 agricultural dejiartnient seems to have 

 been caught in some unfortunate blun- 

 ders. The following clippings from the 

 New Zealand Herald, wiiich were jire- 

 sented by ]\Ir. ^^iiiitli, show the situa- 

 tion there, and jierhai's it is not far 

 from that in this country: 



"The agricultural dejiartment de- 

 clared root knot an infeitious disease in 

 New Zealand, but fixed upon ])erfectly 

 natural excrescences on apple tree roots 

 as the disease in (luestion. An ex;un- 

 ination of the roots was iiia<ie, and it 

 was proved that they were not alfecte<l 

 with root knot. Some of the worst 

 samples wert^ talwn to one of the great- 

 (^st autliorit ies, who, after carefully ex- 

 amining the roots under a microscoiie. 

 declared there \\as no disease jiresent. 

 The dej)artrnent had tai;eii perfectly 

 natural root formiug material for the 

 disease ! aowii as root knot. Seeking to 

 get further iiifoiuiation, aiiotlier expert 

 was sougiit, wlio coiidrmed tliis opin
