Concerning the Nursery Inspection Law. Purdue University Agricultural Ex periment Station: The last general ptssembly of Indianapolis passed an act to provide for the inspection of nursery stock, as well as orchards, and to prevent the dissemination of the San Jose scale, and other injurious insects and plant diseases.

The law applies not only to nurserymen, but to every farmer and fruit grower, whether he has a single tree or ten thousand.

The section relating to the state entomologist Btates that it Bhall be his duty to inspect all nursery stock, and other plants as provided for in the act, and he or his assistant is authorized to enter upon any premises for the purpose of examining such Btock.

Section 6 states that every nurseryman or seller of trees, who is a resident of this Btate, shall attach a printed or written certificate, signed by a state or government entomol ogist, to each package of trees or plants shipped or delivered. Failure to furnish such certificate, or furnishing a false certificate, shall render him liable to the penalty of a fine of $25.00 for each offense.

Section 8 refers to the farmer and fruit grower, as well as the nurseryman, and states that whenever one of these has good reason to believe that hiB trees or other plants are affeeted with San Jose scale, etc., it shall be his duty to notify the state entomologist, who shall examine the same and advise the proper remedies. In case the owners do not apply these remedies within a specified time, they shall be liable to a fine of $25.00 and costs for each offense.

Section 9 requires all nursery stock shipped into this state from another state to be accompanied by a certificate signed by a state or gdvernment entomologist, and section 10 ^makes it the duty of the agent of any railroad, steamboat or express company, or other carrier, receiving packages of nursery stocii from other states, which are not accompaied by a certificate signed by a state or government entomologist, to report the fact at once to the State entomologist, who shall examine the same, at the expense of said traiwportatlon company. Failure to BO report on the part of the agent of the transportation company, subjects htm to a fine of not less than $25.00, and not more than $100 and costs.

This law has two objects in view, viz:—To Btamp out these various pests where they already exist, and to prevent their further introduction into the state from infested districts in other states and territories. In ord&r to do this it will be necessary to have the hearty co-operation of all nurserymen, fruit growers and others Interested. The San Jose scale, one

the moBt to be dreaded insects in tbis country, has been located .in eleven counties in this state, and in every case it has been introduced upon infested nursery Btock imported from other Btates. The black not on plum trees has been neglected so long in certain localities that it is absolutely essential that strict measures should be taken to stop its spread in order to save the remaining trees.

The law has been in force since March 1st, 1899, but, owing to the lateness of the season when the state entomologist was appointed, it was impossible for him to inspect all nursery stock in the state before the spring shipments began and as the law requires the nurseries to be inspected between June 1st and October 1st, he has allowed Borne shipments to go out uninspected.

After June 1st the law will be strictly enforced. James Tkoop,

Arthurs. Colyar, tho Nashville (Ten n.) attorney who attempted to kidnap N. A. Hickman of New York, a witness in the Molineux caso, has been sontenoed to CC days in the ponitentiary.

The ancients believed that rheumatism was the work of a demon within a man. Any one who has had an attack of sciatic or inflammatory rheumatism will agree that the infliction is demoniac enough to warrant the belief. It has never been claimed that Chamberlain's Pain Balm would cast out demons, but it will cure rheumatism, and hundreds bear testimony to the truth of thiB statement. One application relieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times its cost. For aale by Nye fc Booe, druggists.
