QUARANTINE FOR
 STATE EXTENDED
WoOdbury and Southbury to Be Included in Check-
 ing Elm Disease

Because of the spread of Dutch
 elm disease in Connecticut during
 the past months, federal quarantine
 number 71 has been extended to in-
 clude most of the towns of Fairfield
 County and areas in New Haven and Litchfield counties, State Entomolo- gist Dr. Roger B. Friend announced
 this week.
 Official, extension of the federal quarantine followed a recent legal announcement that a hearing on the subject would be held at the Agri- cultural Experiment Station at New Haven. Persons attending the hearing agreed that regu- lations should embrace all towns in Fairfield County with the excep- ton of Brookfield, New Fairfield and Sherman; the town of Southbury in New Haven County and the town of Woodbury in Litchfield.
 Quarantine 71 is a revision of fed- eral quarantine 37, effective in 1885, and amended in September of the present year, to prevent spread of the Dutch elm disease. It requires that: "Elm plants or parts thereof of al lspecies of the genus Ulmus, irrespective of whether nursery, for est, or privately grown, including CD trees, plants, leaves, twigs branches, bark, roots, trunks, cuttings, and scions of such plants; CD logs or cordwood of such plants; and (3) lumber, crates. boxes, barrels, pack ing cases, and other containers man. ufactured in whole or in part from such plants if the wood is not free from bark, shall not be moved inter- state from any regulated area to or through any point outside thereof.
 Plants and plant produces enum- erated in this regulation may be moved interstate from an area not under regulation through a regu- lated area to a nonregulated area only when such movement is on through billing: Provided, That such movement by truck or other road vehicle may not be made during the period from April to October 3l, inclusive,of any 12-month period unless the restricted products con- tained therein while passing through any regulated area are covered or otherwise protected, to the satisfac- tion of an inspector, from contaml- nation by insect vectors of the Dutch | elm disease."
