SUBMITS HiS REPORT TO

THOUSANDS WEREBURNED
They Were Shipped Inio the SNtate
KFrom Tennessee In Vioiation of
the Laws of Georgila.
[This report is furnished to the press
for the benefit of those interested. So
much has been published on the subjact
that it is dae to the public to have a
plain statement from the State Kuto
mologist of his side of the question.—

OFFICE OF THE
StatE ENTOMOLOGIST.
ATLaNTA, GA. Dec. 31.—1900.
To the Georgia State Board of En
tomology.
Sirs:—l beg leave to submit the fol
lowing report upon the confiscation of
certain trees and other plants by this de
partment during the months of Novem
ber and December, 1900, the same hav
ing been shipped from another State in
contravention of the Georgia law and
regulations of the Board govering the
inspection and transportation of nursery
stock.
Under date of July 17, 1900 I received
from Thomasville, Ga., sample speci
ments of abill of about 10,000 Japan pear
cuttings shipped to that place by Mr.
A. W. Newson, proprietor of the Cum
berland Nurseries, Nashville, Tenn.
These specimens were found to be badly
infested with the San Jose scale and
subsequently I inspected and destroyed
the entire lot of stock. .
At that time the Cumberland nurse
ries (also known as the Rosbank nurse
ries, Grand View nurseries and Paragon
nurseries) were entitled to ship inte
Georgia, baving secured the vequired
Georgia tags, which were issued to them
upon the authority of the Tennessee
Experiment Station Entomologist’s cer
tificate.
In due season again Mr. A. W. New
son proprietor of said Cumberland nurse
ries secured the cretificate of the Ten.
nessee Inspector and filed the same in
this office with' application for official
tags to cover the fall and spring ship
ping season, 1900-01. With the appro
val of your Chairman, Hon. O. B.
Stevens, I refused to issue the tags upon
the ground that infested stock had
been sent into the state last season from
those nurserias, as noted above, and we
had no assurance that it would not be
reneated this season.
Mr. Newson was duly warned not to
make any shipments into Georgia until
the Board could be sufficiently assured
of the freedom from scale of his nurse
ries to warrant the issuing of the re.
quired Georgia tags. Early in Novem.
ber, however, he attempted to fill his
Georgia orders in defiance of the law
and the state authorities, On the morn
ing of November 7th,l apprehended twa
bills of trees in Atlanta, one enroute to
Norcross, Ga., and the other to Flowery
X'Xrancl.x, Ga. Both shipments were void
of & ‘rtificates, tags and the consignor’s
S, I followed them upand upon in- 1
Nhati gat\s.'“ found they were shipped by
Mr. A. W.w ewson, Nashville, Tenn. oul
November s@'+ I selzed and inspected
the trees andJounn thembadly infested
with the San Jase scale, Acting under
the regulations of the board 1 destroyed
both shipments by burning.
On Nov. 10th I burned another ship
ment of trees at Woodbury, Ga., from
the same nursery firm under about the
same conditions,
A fourth shipment went to Duluth,
Ga., and upon examination was found |
likewise infested with the San Jose |
scale. This I also destroyed.
Mr. Newson protested against the con
fiscation of his property and declared
that his trees were not infested with
scale. Whereupon I proposed to him
that we would snbmit specimens of in
fested twigs, which I had cut in the pres
ence of witnesses from the trees that
were destroyed, to any entomologist
who is recognized as authority upon
scale insects for identification of the
species of scale. Mr. Newson agreed to
this proposition and the specimens were
submited as No. 1 (plum) and No. ¢
(pear) to Dr. L. O. Howard, Entomo
logist, Department of Agriculture,
“Washington, D. C. Dr. Howard’s re
~ply is given below:
““Nov. 19th, 1900.
«Mr. W. M. Scott, State Entomologist,
Atlanta, Ga.:
“DEAR Siß—Your letter of the 17th
instant and nccommymg specimensdu
ly received. Mr. latt has examined
the twigs represented by your No. 1
¢#pium) and No. 2 (pear) and finds that ‘
both are infested with the San Jose '
scale (Aspidiotus perniciosus).
“Yours very truly,
“(Signed) L. O. Howarbp,
*“Entomologist.”
After this correspondence Mr. New:
son began writing me very courteoun:
letters and informed me that if his nur
series were really infested with scale na
more trees should be shipped out until
he had rd his premises of the pest. ]
then thought the trouble was ended,
but to 1y surprise a few days later my
attention was brought to a notice fremw
the Cumberland nurseries to one of
their customers at Columbus, Ga., thal
a large shipment of trees from these
narseries wouid be dalivered at that
place on D . 8:h.
The travs arrivel {aty in tie avenima
of the date ment: e ani tae oo sy
day being >und v wers Leld ov o d 1l
the tenth, whea an investiziron waé
made. I found thar ths rrees hol beer
shipped by Mr. W. Y. C. Grant 9/
lumbia, Tenn., under the coriScs
issued to him by the Tenness & ins o
tor and under the Goeorgiv rags is~i:.
by the board. The trees weee alic ..
to have been grown by Mr. G and
shipped for Mr. Newson to fiil th: ias
ter’s order at Columbus.
Notwithstanding the fact th ¢ the
shipment, having besn proseriv iab 1«1
was apparently made i fuli comp ine
with the law the trees, upon exam n .
tion, proved to be badly infested wairn the
San Jose ~cale. I, therefore, barn«d she
entire lot.
The infestation in this cace was so
pronouneed that a representative of The
Cumberland Nur-eries, who had come
down from Nashville, Tenu.', to wirness
the investigation, offered no objection to
the destrnciion of the trees. Specimens
of this lot were also submitted to Dr.
Howard, who again verified my determi
nation of the species,
I immediately canceled the tags Issued
to Mr. Grant and ordered the return of
all that had not been used, but having
no means of enforcing the order the tags
have not yet been returned.
Mr. Newson was again notified not to
make further shipments into Georgia,
either in his own name or through the
agency of Mr. W. Y. C. Grant of Co
lumbia, Tenn. He persisted, however,
aud another shipmeut was made to
Woodstock, Ga., through the same
agency as was used in the Columbus
shipment. On Dac. 24 I examined the
trees bufore they were taken from the
car and finding them infested with the
San Jose Scale I performed the unpleas
ant duty of burning them.
I have made no estimate of the num
ber of trees destroyed, but was informed
by the agent of the nurseries that thero
were 10,000 trees in the Woodstook ship
ment and there were perhaps several
thousand trees in each of the other lots.
The San Jose scale infestation was
most pronounced on pears, plums,
peacljes'and English walnuts.
+ Respectfully submitted,
W. M. Scorr, State Entomologist.
A New Jersey judge has decided
that the contract made by a rail
road when it sells a ticket good
for transportation on one of its
trains is not legal if the ticket is
sold and used on Sunday. Sun
day contracts, he says are null
and void, and a railroad ticket
comes under the head of contracts.
A bandmaster had sued a railroad
tor damages because of its failure
to transport him and his musicians
of Patterson in time to take part
in a Sunday concert, after having
accepted his money for the tickets.
The court decided in favor of the
railroad. .
Concert is to character what
paint 1s to beauty; it is not only
needless, but impairs what it is
supposed to improve,
The South African war has
proved to be a very costly affair
to England. A London banker
has said that it is costing the gov
ernment $650 a minute.
Such little pills as DeWitt’s Little

The merited reputation for curin

by DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve, has led
to the making of worthless counterfeits.

The most soothing, healing and anti

When threatened by pneumonia or
any other lung trouble, prompt relief is
necessary, as it is dangerous to delay.
We would suggest that One Minute
Cough Cure be taken as soon as indica

It cures quickfy and its early use pre
vents consumption, C. M. Crosby.
This season there is alarge death rate
among children from croup and lung

little ones from these terrible liseases.
We know of nothing so certain to give
instant relief as One Minute Cough
Cure. It canalso be relied upon in
grippe and all throat and lung troubles
of aé)ults. Pleasant to take.

You can’t convince a man that

Pepsin in preparations fail to relieve

It cures the worst cases of indigestion

ULCERS.
Sores and Ulcers never become chronie
unless the blood is in poor condition —is
sluggish, weak and unable to throw off
the poisons that accumulate in it, The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal Before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and allimpurities eliminated from the sys
tem. S.S.S. begins the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
ug the general health and removing from
all oty A CONSTANT DRAIN
all morbid,
effetematter. um" m‘ .le
When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore of
ulcer heals. Itisthe tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse,
and eventually todestroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble. gaa S. S. does, and no matter
how agparently hopeless your condition,
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when uothin
else can. It supplies the rich, pure bloog
necessary to heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body.
Mr. J. B. Talbert, Lock Box 245, Winona, Miss.,
says: '‘Six years 4go my legefmm the knee to
the foot was one solid sore. veral physicians
treated me and I made two trips to Hot Springs,
but found no relief. I wasinduced to try 55.8.8.,
and it made a complete cure. I have been a per
fectly well man ever since.”
is the only purely veg
etable blood purifier
known — contains no
poisonous minerals to
ruin the digestion and
add to, rather than relieve your suffer
ings. If your flesh does not heal readily
when scratched, bruised or cut, your blood
is in bad condition, and any orgina,ry sore
is apt to become chronic. v
Send for our frée book and write our
physicians about your case. We make no
