dangerous proposition to run the risk
Of some Of thu pests being alive, and
so spread the disease. Mr.. Castner
went up to consult with MIR. Weber,
the commissioner for this district. A
much more rigid inspection will be
held this year than ever, and wher.
ever 10 discovered, 1t will be vigor-

Mr.. Castner's consultation with Mr..
Weber, resulted In q careful examina.

The whole lot Of trees, from which
this bunch were taken, will be con

nursery will be allowed to come into
the valley. Mr.. Castner says that
trees that we're purchased from this
nursery last year are now covered
with scale, and that he will run no
more risk flom these people. 1t is
said that thousands of trees from this
nursery have been sold for spring de
livery, but they will not te allowed
