Instructions to Postmasters 
Post Office Department, 
Third Assistant Postmaster General, 
Washington, August 25, 1939. 
Postmaster: 
My Dear Sir: Your attention is invited to the enclosed notice showing that 
Quarantine Order No. 65 of the United States Department of Agriculture on 
account of the Woodgate rust has been revoked, effective July 31, 1939. This 
quarantine prohibited the shipment of Scotch and other pines and parts thereof 
from the New York counties of Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Hamilton, Herkimer^ 
Jefferson, Lewis, Madison, Oneida, and St. Lawrence. 
With the lifting of this quarantine, postmasters are relieved from further 
enforcement of its provisions. However, you should not overlook the require- 
ments of paragraph 2, section 595, Postal Laws and Regulations, governing the 
acceptance for mailing of plants and plant material for propagation, which must 
be observed. 
Very truly yours, 
Ramsey S. Black, 
Third Assistant Postmaster General.

ADDITIONAL PLANT INSPECTION PLACE IN CALIFORNIA

made for the terminal inspection of plants and plant products at Carpinteria, 
Santa Barbara County, Calif., and this place should therefore be added to the- 
list of places within the State of California to which plants and plant products 
subject to terminal inspection may be sent by postmasters for inspection 
under the provisions of section 596, Postal Laws and Regulations. 
ARIZONA STATE PLANT QUARANTINES 
Third Assistant Postmaster General, 
Washington, August 7, 1939. 
Under plant quarantines and regulations issued by the State of Arizona, the 
shipment into that State of certain plants and plant materials, known to be

or entirely prohibited. 
The following table gives a summary of the Arizona quarantine laws and 
regulations, showing the quarantined areas, the plants and plant products 
affected, and the pests and diseases of which such plants are known hosts. 
Under the provisions of paragraph 2 (b), amended section 596, Postal Laws 
and Regulations, postmasters should not accept such plants and plant products 
when presented for mailing in violation of these quarantine laws and regula- 
tions, and should invite the attention of the mailers thereto.
