trj' against such legislation and put 

 this important industry in the very 

 untair attitude of opposing reasonable 

 legislation, which is quite as much for 

 its own protection as it is for the pro- 

 tection of fruit and jforest interests. 

 In view of the evident misunderstand- 

 ing which is being broadly circulated 

 in relation to the intent of the pro- 

 posed act and of its probable manner 

 of enforcement, and the groundless fear 

 that the Secretary of Agriculture or 

 his experts would take an unreasona- 

 ble attitude toward the nurserymen, 

 it seems desirable to make a fair state 

 ment (1) of the conditions calling for 

 such legislation, (2) the history of the 

 efforts to secure it, (3) an explanation 

 of the scope and working of the bill 

 now before Congress, and (4) the rela- 

 tion of the Secretary of Agriculture
