They agree that much more can be done in this friendly way than by enforcing the law to the letter. Now this law, while it pro vides for drastic measures, provides also for educational work and in the minds of all right thinking people the latter method is by far the better way. J. W. POMEKOY. WARREN I as valuable to the community as the better methods of selling. When the organization sets up its stand ards for high quality then those who want the advantages of better marketing facilities must keep their trees healthy and the fruit free from insects and disease. If they do not grow good fruit the association will not handle it. In such a district there is practically no need of a law governing their fruit growing practices, except In relation to in spection of nursery stock, for these growers are more careful and thorough in their practices than any law could compel them to be, be cause they find that to be the best business method. This is true of in dividuals in our own sections, but where the cooperative movement is not present, then some legislation is necessary to clean up a pest-breeding orchard, just as legislation is used to get rid of any other sort of public nuisance. In our own state such a law exists. This law isenforred throuch the State Commissioner of Horti culture. Under him are the county inspectors, wnose operations are confined to one county or group of counties adjoining. Under the county insjiectors, if need be, there are deputy inspectors who act with and assist the county inspectors. The counties pay the salaries of the county inspectors while the state pays for the higher officials. It is the duty of each inspector not only to search carefully through his territory for harmful insects and diseases, and to force the fruit grower to adopt methods of control, but he must also "foster and pro mote impartially the horticultural interests throughout the county." In addition he is advised to furnish to the county press articles "of infor mation and interest on horticultural subjects. As to the powers of the inspectors, the law specifically states that if the inspector, by his own observation, i or upon complaint, learns, or if he has reason to suspect the presence of injurious insects and diseases in any orchards, gardens, packing houses, packages etc., he must in spect the property ..without delay. If a pest is discovered the owner or agent must be notified. The in spector must prescribe the manner of disinfection and direct the owner or agent to disinfect at once. If this is not complied with in the limit of time set by the inspector or com missioner, it is a mdidemeanor, and upon conviction the offender may be fined not more than one hundred j dollars and costs.

Those who do take good care of their trees know that with or without a law they benefit through greater production and better returns, but they also know that they are hampered in their efforts to control an insect or a disease by the indifference, neglect or even opposition on the part of those who do not care if their fruit is wormy or scabby, and who are willing to take any old price for their inferior product. They, do not work in the doctrine of "quality" nor can they see anything In the motto Never spray, never pay." Still these people contend that an 2 CO I inspection law would foice them to 17 50 adopt new practices and would tako 6 10 away their "risrhts" as citizens. when it is evident that they are not 8 00 1 good citizens. They would not like i id io called parasites or grafters, 11 00 yet, are they not. without anv effort 4 10 ot heir own. benefiting bv the county court shall allow and pay the sum out of the general fund of the county. Any and all sums so paid shall be and become a lien upon the property and premises from which said nuisances shall have been removed and abated, in pursuance of this act, and may be recovered by ' a suit in equity against such prop erty or premises, which suit to' foreclose such liens shall be brought in the circuitjeourt of the county where the premises are situated, by the district attorney in ihe name ana ror the benefit of the countv making such payments." The law gives the inspector frcc. access to any and all" places in his district where pests are present. This provision enables him to dis- regara sucn signs as I'i ivat.e !
