Excerpt from Report of State Entomolgist of Indiana and List of Indiana Nurserymen Inspected in 1902Sir - In accordance with the provisions of section eleven (11), chapter thirty-eight (XXXVIII) of the General Laws of 1899, I hereby submit my fourth annual report of the work done and expense* incurred by this office during the fiscal year ending October 31, 1902.The main purpose of this law, as originally passed, was (1) to prevent the further introduction of injurious insects and fungous diseases, notably the San Jose Scale (Aspidiotus perniciosus, Corn-stock) which has caused so many thousands of dollars of damage to the orchards of the State by having been introduced upon nursery stock, and (2) to prevent the further spread of these pests by providing some means of eradicating them from localities where they had already become established.In order to accomplish the first result the law requires all nursery stock which is shipped into this State from other states to be accompanied by n certificate Waring the signature of the State or Government Entomologist and stating that said nursery stock has Won duly inspectcd according to law. And, as a further precaution, all nurserymen within the State arc required to attach a similar certificate to stock sent out from their respective nurseries.In the second place it is made the duty of the State Entomologist to inspect all nurseries in the State, at least once each year, and also to inspect infested orchards, or those thought to be infested with San Jose Scale, etc., prescribe remedies for their treatment, and see that these remedies are properly administered.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
