INSPECTION OF LUMBER AND FOREST PRODUCTS.

district in Maine during this period. Practically all the lumber 

 region in this State is outside the infested area. 



This material consisted chiefly of railroad ties, posts, poles, cord 

 wood, bark, staves, rough lumber, and, in the last few weeks of 1909, 

 small evergreen trees for the Christmas trade. The enforcement of 

 the inspection requirements has resulted in a large amount of addi- 

 tional work for this office, but as several badly infested shipments 

 have been prevented, the expense of the work has been amply 

 justified. A large shipment of lumber consigned to Holyoke, Mass., 

 was found badly infested, and held until it could be thoroughly 

 inspected and treated before it was allowed on the cars. Lumber 

 which was destined to Philadelphia, Pa., and other points as far 

 removed from the infested region was also held up for thorough 

 inspection and certification. This has been the means of preventing 

 a number of colonies from gaining a foothold in States outside of 

 New England.
