board the power to absolutely control 

 the importation of nursery stock from 

 foreign countries, and to absolutely pre- 

 vent you from shipping out your goods 

 at any time when in the judgment of 

 the board it may seem proper to do so. 

 The other provisions of the law, for ap- 

 plications and permits, are matters of 

 detail. The substance of the law is 

 quarantine — foreign and domestic. In 

 the opinion of your committee, the en- 

 actment of this law is not a subject of 

 congratulation by the nurseryman, but 

 rather one that should be viewed with 

 regret and with the fear that some day 

 it may be so administered as to cause 

 us serious trouble and loss. Your com- 

 mittee feels that the present board has 

 treated us fairly and reasonably, and 

 expects that this condition will con- 

 tinue, but the risk is and will be ever 

 present. ' ' 



Mr. Pitkin also reviewed the situa- 

 tion in eastern states. The objectiona- 

 ble New York bill, he said, is dead, but 

 may come to life at any moment. The 

 new West Virginia law was pronounced 

 reasonable, except for the matter of 

 licenses. In Maine the committee won 

 a case which resulted in amending the 

 law in such a way as to legalize a 

 license fee of $5 for agents. In Penn- 

 sylvania a bill recently was introduced 

 to provide a method whereby the pur- 

 chaser of nursery stock can be guaran- 

 teed stock true to name. The plan is 

 involved and intricate and "there is 

 nothing in the bill which, if it becomes 

 a law, will compel the nurseryman to 

 give bond and thus insure his trees, but 

 the law makes it the duty of the secre- 

 tary of agriculture 'to report to all in- 

 quirers and make special published men- 

 tion, at least once per year, of all 

 nurserymen who shall take advantage 

 of this opportunity to bond themselves 

 in Pennsylvania, and no grower shall 

 make claim for damages under this act 

 who has not purchased his trees of a 

 properly bonded dealer. ' The last para- 

 graph shows what they are trying to do. 

 In plain English, they propose to estab- 

 lish a list of 'good' nurserymen and 

 advertise such a list generally through- 

 out the state, and warn their citizens 

 that they must buy of the nurserymen 

 represented in this list, otherwise they 

 will have no redress should varieties 

 prove untrue, indirectly attempting to 

 force every nurseryman to file a bond 

 for fear he will be on the black list and
