Of Identification of the various in

and to give up-to-date information
to the growers for their control.
This work ON the part of the de-.

the orchardists throughout the State,
as the inspectors come in personal
contact with the growers and can
point out such infected trees and
advise them as to treatment. 1T also
enables the officers of the department
to learn of neglected cases where
the scales or .yellows are allowed to
stand without treatment. In such
cases the officers endeavor to impress
upon the individual owner the great
necessity of treatment in order to
save his trees as well las protect his
,neighbors. If the treatment recon-
mended is not applied it is then nee
