“ Thirty thousand fruit trees, comprising the entire orchard

burned Jan. i, by order of State Entomologist Scott, owing to 
the ravages of the San Jose scale,” says Colman’s Rural World. 
“In the immediate neighborhood of Dewitt, Ga., in the 
counties of Inerwein, Berrien, Worth and Mitchell, are more 
than 300 fruit-bearing peach trees, and, in justice to the 
owners of neighboring orchards, as well as to perform a service 
for the state, the trees will be destroyed. The work of de¬ 
stroying the orchards will require several weeks’ time.”

FEDERAL BILL CHANGED. 
The federal inspection bill which was believed to be pro¬ 
gressing favorably, was amended in committee on agriculture, 
so that the bill should not take precedence over state, laws and 
imported stock should be subject to re-inspection upon arrival 
at American ports. 
Irving Rouse, Rochester, N. Y., of the compiittee on legis¬ 
lation of the American Association of Nurserymen, upon 
learning of the changes, immediately notified Chairman Wads¬ 
worth of the congressional committee on agriculture that the 
changes destroyed the usefulness of the bill, inasmuch as if 
they prevailed there would be no more uniformity in inspec¬ 
tion of nursery stock in the states than at present and the 
custom house evils would continue. Mr. VVatrous, Des 
Moines, la., was also communicated with.
