The Origin of Pest Legislation
The San Jose scale deserves credit
for one thing, if nothing else, and that
is for bringing the agriculturists and
horticulturists of the country to a re-
alization of the necessity of having
what legisla:
lation. Pest laws in many States were
born out of the the fear of fruit grow
ers in the presence of the San Jose
scale.
This insect was first discovered in
the East in Virginia during 1893. In
1894, it was found in Maryland. Both
of these infestations were traced to a
New firm. A
later it was found in other eastern
States and in nearly every case the
source of infestation was one or two

In New Jersey, the law providing for
the inspection of nurseries was enaci-

in New Jersey was first attended wich
difficulties. There was a
among some nurserymen to avoid the
law’s requirements and sell, amon:
their neighbors at least, in defiance of
it. Gradually, however, they realized
that the regulations
benefit and were not restrictions, so
that at the present time there is per-
fect harmony between the nursery
men and officials enforcing the law,
and a Ccesire and willingness on the
part of each to co-operate as fully as

The Accomplishments of Pest Leigs-

Various benefits have been derived
by the different States under their
existing laws. Formerly the entomolo-
gist and the plant pathologist devoted
their entire attention to the study and
control of native species, but now their
| attention is directed toward exclusion.

species of injurious insects and plant
diseases has been prevented. If such
work had been started many years
ago, its saving to the country at large
would have been enormous.
In New Jersey, by reason of the en
forcement of such legislation, the pur-
chaser of nursery stock is assured of
material to start

hundreds of
trees with which to plant an orchard
and the commuter who carries a lone
fruit trea home for planting in his
back yard, are both sure of getting
clean stock only by reason of the in-
spection service, and in many cases
both are unaware that their interests
have been looked after by the State.
If sucn a service did not exist, the
San Jose scale would still continue to
be distributed everywhere, crown gall
would be more prevalent than it is
and various ofner diseases and insects
would be purchased by the buyer,
along with the stock. It is not meant
by this that nurserymen are dishonest
and would knowingly sell pest-infested
stock, but in many cases the nursery-
men themselves are unfamiliar with

The same protection is given to the
purchaser of ornamental stock. The
wealthy estate owner, who buys thou-
sands of ornamental trees and shrubs
for his private estate and the person
who buys a 10-cent rose bush are both
beneficiaries under the inspection
law, and 2s before, in many cases both
are unaware of its existence.
In addition, the inspection aids the
nurseryman by furnishing him with
an insect and disease record of his
nursery and help in combating pests
likely to become injurious. All tha!

fair and reasonable demand, which in
most cases is recognized as such.
Another result of inspection is the
prevention of the introduction of vari-
ous European pests by the inspection
of imported stock. Were it not for
this the State would be overrun with
foreign insects and diseases capabie
of causing considerable economic loss.
If the bureau accomplished nothing
else during an entire year except the
destruction of a single case of seri
ously infested stock, the cost of the
service would be well worth it, as the
amount expended would shrink to a
mere trifle compared with the amoun’
which would undoubtedly be expended
later in fighting the pest.
The brown-tail and gypsy moths
which are present in the New England
States have caused the Federal and
State governments an expenditure of
over $7,000,000, and the same govern-
ments together with private individ-
uals are spending $1,000,000 yearly
in an effort to prevent the increase and
spread of these insects. Both have
in the past entered New Jersey, but
the infestations have been promptly
eradicated. In one case, it was neces
sary to call upon the Federal govern-
ment for help. In the case of the
gypsy moth, the pest was found to the
extent of 198 egg masses in a nursery

as a recult, trees containing crown
gall, San Jose scale and other pests
will not find their way into shipments
destined for New Jersey. Therefore,
this phase of the service protects the
buyer, and as well serves the interest
of the State at large.
At different times, serious insect
pests have been intercepted and de
stroyed before getting a foothold in
the State, and the same applies to
plant diseases. These happenings oc¢
cur more or less regularly during the
inspection season and are taken as a
matter of course by the inspector,
but at the same time it must be re-
membered that a considerable service
is being rendered to the citizens of
the State. It should also be kept in
mind that the most careful and thor-
ough inspection in the country is not
an absolute guarantee against the in
troduction of pests. Insects may come
in along with the soil or packing,
or they may enter unobserved, on
account of the laxity of the inspector
or his ignorance of foreign pests. The
success of the service depends to a
certain extent on the personal element
which is never a fixed factor.

possible to detect them. Fortunately,
however, the Federal government 1s

In fancy 1 am speeding to the far-off

I hear wee minstrels playing, old
melodies so sweet,
I'm back again in Ireland, where the

Oh, charm of those surroundings that

That dear old home in Ireland wher
my boyhood loved to roam
Though the picture might seem per-
fect, it would still be incomplete
If it did not show the valley where the
fairies used to meet.
I'm glad when I'm recalling all the
legends told me there,
And memory bears me fondly back to
my grandsire's chair.
Oh, how he'd thrill my fancies, till
my heart would faster beat,
walking through the valley
