inspection until satisfactory evidence is 

 lircst'iited to show that the regulations 

 of the board have been complied with." 

 After regulation 8 a new one has 

 bt'en inserted, in regard to marking as 

 a condition of interstate shipment. It 

 is as follows: "No person shall ship or 

 deliver for shipment from one state or 

 territory or district of the United 

 States into any other state or territory 

 or district any imported nursery stock 

 the case, box, package, crate, bale, or 

 bundle whereof is not plainly marked 

 so as to show the general nature and 

 quantity of the contents, the name and 

 address of the consignee and the coun- 

 try and locality where such stock was 

 j;rown, unless and until such imported 

 stock has been inspected by the proper 

 official of a state, territory or district 

 of the United States." 



EFFECT OF QUARANTINE LAW. 



'The most serious objection to the 

 lederal quarantine act," said L. A. 

 oerckmans, of Augusta, Ga., in a re- 

 port presented at the A. A. N. conven- 

 "0". "has been on the part of im- 

 porting concerns and some of the for- 

 ^'gn nurseries. There was formerly a 

 "ecided inclination to attempt to over- 



ride 



or Ignore the laws of the federal 



hortiniitural board and certain local 

 Slate laws, but when it was seen that 

 ^^ law would be enforced, importing 

 Uses and the foreiga nurseries began

have good inspection service. There 

 are some few states that have not yet 

 made suitable provision for such in 

 spection. The foreign nurseryman 

 realizes that his goods will be in- 

 spected and must meet certain condi- 

 tions, and the result is that he is 

 rather solicitous as to their condition 

 himself and is taking a great deal of 

 pains to see that they are free from 

 infestation, and, more than that, the 

 stock itself is of good quality, and in 

 consequence of this we are today re- 

 ceiving cleaner and better stock than 

 ever before. Of course, certain plants 

 which are apt to introduce fungous dis- 

 eases and injurious insects are rightly 

 barred. The scope of the federal act 

 is broad. It covers the entire field of 

 horticultural and agricultural products. 

 In the last two years I have written 

 many letters to foreign nurserymen 

 and impressed upon them the vital im- 

 portance of the enactment of nursery 

 inspection laws, so that they would 

 experience no trouble in having their 

 products enter the United States. 

 Nearly all countries are awakening to 

 the benefits of our quarantine laws." 



GOLDEN PEIVET FOR HEDGE. 



Will you please tell me if Ligustrum 

 ovalifolium aureum, golden-leaved priv-

it be a sufficiently satisfactory hedge 

 to stand the chance of planting 1,000 

 feet? Is this plant used in large or 

 small quantities at present? A. J. B. 



If the California privet, Ligustrum 

 ovalifolium, will withstand your win- 

 ters, the golden variety might succeed. 

 The California privet is pretty easily 

 grown, but uncertain. If a severe win- 

 ter and a temperature of 10 degrees 

 below zero occur, it is cut to the ground 

 or killed outright, as in hundreds of 

 gardens last winter. Personally I 

 should not risk planting 1,000 feet of 

 it. A variegated hedge, for one thing, 

 is far less beautiful than a green one
