ings made by the Department of Agri- 

 culture under the new plant quarantine 

 law. The Treasury notice says: 



"The chief officer of the customs at 

 the port at which any nursery stock 

 shall first arrive shall promptly notify 

 the Secretary of Agriculture of the ar- 

 rival of such stock, stating the nature 

 and quantity thereof, the date of arrival, 

 the name:<and address of the consignees 

 (both nonunal and ultimate), the name 

 of the port of delivery, whether or not 

 the shipment is accompanied by a cer- 

 tificate of inspection, and the number of 

 the permit from the Department of Ag- 

 riculture, if the permit has been received. 

 Prompt advice of the delivery of nursery 

 stock under permit shall also be for- 

 warded to the Secretary of Agriculture. 



**The Secretary of Agriculture having 

 promulgated his determination, it is nec- 

 essary to forbid the importation into the 

 United States from the following named 

 countries, viz., Great Britain, France, 

 Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Norway, 

 Sw^en, Bussia, Oermanv, Austria, 

 Switzerland and Italy, of the following 

 named species and their horticultural va- 

 rieties, viz., white pine, western white 

 pine, sugar pine and stone or Cembrian 

 pine. The importation, until the with- 

 drawal of such determination by the 

 Secretary of Agriculture, for all pur- 

 poses, of the said species and their hor- 

 ticultural varieties from the countries 

 named, is prohibited." 



HOISTED BY OWN PETAED. 



Department of Agriculture officials 

 are said to be struggling with the prob- 

 lem of how best to inspect the several 

 hundred thousand packets of plants, 

 bulbs and shrubs annually distributed 

 throughout the country at the instance 

 of individual members of the two 

 houses of Congress as a part of the 

 free seed iniquity. This free distribu- 

 tion has unintentionally fallen under 

 the inspection requirements through a 

 postal regulation directing that nursery 

 stock shall be admissible to the mails 

 only when accompanied by a certificate 

 that the stock has been inspected and 

 found free of insects. The govern- 

 ment is the most extensive mail ship- 

 per of nursery stock. It is said the 

 maUings amount to 200,000 to 300,000 

 per year.
