of the state to take advantage of the 

 opportunities which the board placed 

 at their disposal. Henry B. Weiss, as- 

 sistant state entomologist, discussed 

 the nurserymen's insect problems, and 

 C. A. Schwartz told of common dis- 

 eases of nursery stock. 



FEDERAL INSPECTION REPORT. 



The news letter of the Federal Horti- 

 cultural Board just to hand, covering 

 the results of inspection of imported 

 nursery stock since December 3, shows 

 the countries that caused the inspectors 

 most work were Belgium and Holland. 

 From the former country the receipts 

 were entirely florists' stock, such as 

 azaleas, palms, bay trees, boxwoods, 

 rhododendrons, araucarias and aspidis- 

 tras. From Holland the receipts were 

 various kinds of nursery stock, largely 

 rose stocks, evergreens and shrubs. The 

 pests and diseases found on these were 



so various that the findings indicate 

 nothing, unless it is that the same ol(J 

 pests are just as general as ever. Eng- 

 land is represented on the list only by 

 crown gall on pear and rose stocks and 

 root gall on roses; France does not 

 appear in the list at all. The distribu- 

 tion of the pests is general through the 

 states, as usual. 



NON-RESIDENT CORPORATIONS. 



Nursery companies which do business- 

 in states other than those where they 

 are incorporated will be interested in 

 a decision lately handed down by the 

 United States Supreme court, to the 

 effect that, although a state may pre- 

 scribe limitations upon the right of a 

 non-resident corporation to carry on 

 business which is wholly executed with- 

 in the state, as where a contract is 

 made in a given state for the delivery 

 Ox nursery stock there, and although 

 a state may even make proper regula- 

 tions to preserve the public health, 

 morals and general welfare, the right 

 o" a non-resident company to sue in 

 the courts of tlie state to recover the 

 price which a resident has agreed to- 

 pay for goods delivered under an in- 

 terstate commercial transaction cannot 

 be impaired. 



In the case cited, an Iowa corpora-
