INSPECTION IN OHIO. 
Prof. F. W. Webster, chief inspector, describing the method 
of inspecting nurseries and orchards in Ohio, says that nearly 
200 nurseries have been inspected. “ Some of these are rather 
insignificant in dimensions,” he says, “and there has been 
some complaint of injustice in requiring the inspection of 
strawberry fields, but where strawberry plants are grown 
among trees infested by San Jose scale, we have found the 
plants also infested, and for this reason, public safety seems 
to demand inspection. Every effort is put forth to make in¬ 
spection mean precisely what it purports to mean, and, while a 
slight infestation might escape the vigilance of the inspector, 
once, it is not likely to a second time.”
