from pests. We have, however, de- 

 tected, in cooperation with state officers, 

 a good many cases of infestation and, 

 because of the knowledge we now have 

 of just where such stock comes from, 

 we can go, as we have done, to the coun- 

 try and the officer responsible for bad 

 stock and warn him that a repetition 

 of shipments of infested stock, stock 

 purporting to be inspected but not iji- 

 spected, will result in a quarantine 

 order. A notification of that kind has 

 a salutary effect. A notification of that 

 kind made to the official representative 

 of the offending country brought the 

 most positive assurances that the coun- 

 try in question would be fully notified 

 and that a reform in its service would 

 be immediately inaugurated. Later on 

 we received letters of apology, and as- 

 surances of better inspection from the 

 foreign inspection officer who had been 

 at fault, and a copy of a new law just 

 enacted, which is a good law and if car- 

 ried out will do what we want. That is 

 an illustration merely of the direct ef- 

 fect of this legislation on foreign coun- 

 tries. We expect all of the principal 

 exporting foreign countries to adjust 

 their legislation and to provide for in- 

 spection so that stock coming into this 

 country will be clean; that is what wo 

 hope for, and I think we are going to 

 get it. 



"In this country the moral eflEect of 

 the federal act- has been somewhat 

 similar. The inspection proper of im- 

 ported nursery stock is left entirely to 

 state inspectors. A good many of our 

 states have a good inspection service; 

 some have inspection service, but not 

 adequate inspection service — that is, not
