Monday, March 1, 1015 County Inspector Outlines Plans ASHLAND TIDINGS The recent appointment of A. C. Allen as district horticultural com missioner for the third district and the consequent change in policy re garding the horticultural inspection work of Jackson county makes it de sirable at this time that the present plan be outlined to the growers, since the success of the plan depends upon the hearty co-operation of all concerned. Shortly after entering upon his of fice Mr. Allen apointed M. P. Hen derson deputy district horticultural commissioner for the third district, with authority of immediate super vision over the inspection work in Jackson county. Together Mr. Allen and Dr. Henderson formulated a plan of action which was submitted to the county court and approved by them. The county has been divided into four inspection districts, each of which is to have one inspector. An inspector has not yet been assigned to the Ashland district, but the mat ter is under consideration with a view to Immediate action. The present plan assumes that the inspector will be a resident of his district, and that his operations will be entirely within this district. He Is supposed to work his field consecu tively from one end to the other in such manner as to allow the maxi mum of time for actual inspection in the orchards and to reduce the ex pense for travel to the minimum. The inspector is a "police officer," whose duty it is to visit all orchards within his district at regular inter vals to see that they are kept free from all pests of whatever nature that are detrimental to the fruit in dustry of the county. Inspection is to be made independently of the own er or caretaker of the orchard, and is to Involve the least time compati ble with efficient work. If blight or other pest which is the immediate object of the visit is found within the first few minutes to be prevalent in an orchard, the inspector need not prolong his stay in that orchard. It is not desirable that he attempt to locate every case of blight or other trouble or even any large percentage of it, neither is it desirable that he spend any time in cutting out blight or in attempting to eradicate any other pest from the orchard, but rather it is his duty to call the atten tion of the owner of the orchard to the fact that such pests exist in his property, and Buggest to him the ne cessity for prompt attention to the matter. To this end the Inspector is provided with blanks on which he records the time spent in the orch ard, the condition of the orchard as far as plant disease and insect pests are concerned, the efforts that are being made by the owner to control these pests, and the inspector's rec ommendations to the grower. The report is made out in duplicate, one copy to be left with the orchardist and the other to be filed in the office of the county pathologist. The own er or some other person connected with the orchard will be asked to Bign this report as a receipt. The inspection reports for all orchards are kept permanently on file in the pathologist's office, so that from the beginning of the cur rent year the record of conditions in any orchard will be available at any timet Records of all miscellaneous Inspection, such as nursery stock, shrubs, vegetables, etc., are also on file. If for any reason a grower desires the services of an inspector at any time other than that of the regular visit, he should send his request-to the- pathologist's office early enough to permit us to meet his wishes with out interfering with work already planned. Unless otherwise directed from the office, the inspectors ae in structed to follow their regular rou tine of work. Our purpose in this plan Is to keep in closest possible touch with prob lems of' plant disease an J insect con trol In this valley, and to render the most efficient service possible in the solution of these problems. This re sult can only be attained through the hearty co-operation of all parties concerned. It is not possible for the inspectors, be they ever so efficient in their work, to keep the pests of this county under control. Neither is it possible for the district commis sioner, county pathologist and in spectors, working together, to ac complish this purpose. .We must also have the unanimous help of the growers if we would succeed.' These are community problems in which we are all interested and upon the solu tion of which depends the success or failure of our greatest industry. We, therefore, appeal to the orchardists to aid us in this task, not alone by prompt and thorough work in their individual orchards, but also by ex erting an Influence in favor of sani tary methods in adjoining proper ties. It frequently happens that an inspector finds an unkept orchard which is apparently abandoned, and it requires a great deal of time and energy to locate the owner or person responsible for that property. Resi dents of such a neighborhood would render us a very material aid if they would call our attention to such neglected orchard and could give us information that would enable us to locate the responsible person. It sometimes happens that an in spector is looked upon as an intruder in an orchard, and when calling at tention to the fact that blight exists in the orchard may he met with the reply, "Do you think that I need you to come around here and tell me that?" The Inspector has no choice in such cases. He is instructed to inspect every orchard in his district and report its condition and make recommendations to the owner for cleaning it up. We do not purpose antagonizing the grower in these in stances and we much prefer that he remain our friend; but the interests at stake, not alone in his orchard but in those of his neighbors, demand that he receive the same attention that is accorded to everyone else. Pests must be eradicated wherever and whenever they are found Our most pressing problem at the present time is the eradication of all blight cankers before the active movement of sap begins in the spring. The time is short and there is still much to be done. This ap plies to apple, pear and quince of whatever'variety, and no one should make the mistake of -thinking that his orchard or any part of it is im mune, for it is not. We advise a very careful and critical examination of every tree below ground to make sure that the crown, and immediately adjacent root portions are free from this disease. The eradication of one virulent canker at this season prob ably means more toward blight con trol than would the blowing out of an acre of Infested trees after the blight begins to run. The only sure way to hold it in check is to destroy the centers of infection before any distribution from those centers takes place. Great care should be exer cised in uncovering the roots to pre vent injury and to avoid the possibil ity of producing infection where there was none. All tools should be thoroughly disinfected between trees to make sure that the disease Is not carried from one tree to another. Again we would emphasize the im portance of the use of clean sponges, good fresh solution free from any sort of precipitate, anf of a thorough drenching of the parts to be steril ized. M. P. HENDERSON", Plant Pathologist, Jackson Co. limmnttt ttt ff tffttt t ! m n i 1 T We Ask Yot Co -operation If we can be in our office during office hours it will never be necessary for a sick person to make the journey to THE SANI TARIUM in vain. We do our best to keep these office hours re ligiously; but we can only do so by the co-operation of the public this means you. If you will but realize that we cannot be in two places at once and that the greatest good of the greatest number will be con served by helping us to do our work in a logical, consecutive manner everyone will be better served. Diffusion of attention leads to dissatisfaction in service and waste in results. Will you, therefore, whenever possible, kindly observe our office hours which are from one to four p. m. Sundays by ap pointment only. By so doing you will always know when to find us and you will be saved many futile phone calls and tiresome trips. Experimental Research and Medical Prog ress. It may be taken as an axiom of medical science that everything of value in medicine and surgery has arisen from the application of experimental research. Nor can future advance be made by any other way than by the research method. It is true that accident may teach occas ionally; as it did, for example, in the dreadful burns unwittingly inflicted on themselves and patients by the early users of Roentgen ray therapy and diag nosis. But accident is only the most blundering type of experimentation and results obtained by its chance agency do not realy invalidate the universal law that man only learns by experience; in other words, by research. Research is, after all, only the acquisition of fresh ex perience by the trained expert, usually led on to his experiment by inductance from other known factslienjamin Moore.
