 Japanese Iris. I was well pleased with the plants, all of which 

 were large and vigorous, Over a year ago I purchased from you 

 some Rhododendrons (native and hybrid) which bloomed beauti- 

 fully and made a vigorous growth the following season.

No. 2—1910. 



Office of the State Entomologist. 



NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., 



September 1, 1910. 



This is to Certify, That I have this 18th day 

 of August, 1910, inspected the general nursery 

 stock growing on the Monmouth Nurseries, J. T. 

 Lovett, Proprietor, at Eittle Silver, in Mon- 

 mouth County, New Jersey, and have found the 

 same apparently free from San Jose Scale and 

 other dangerously injurious insect pests; also 

 that the examined stock seemed healthy. 



I Further Certify, That the nursery has a 

 properly constructed house, 16x10x6.8 feet, for 

 fumigating with hydrocyanic acid gas, upon 

 which I have marked the quantity of cyanide of 

 potassium required for an effective charge. 



This certificate expires June 1st, 1911, and 

 covers only stock actually on the nurseries when 

 examined.
