indus try in the country under authority conferred by tbo legis lature the minister of agrionlturo already has inspectors at work in the nnraenee and orchards of the districts where the scale haa got a start and it is being thoroughly stamp ed out how serious a matter dealing with this dangerous microscopical psat la may be understood when it is learned that not only all kinds of fruit trees shrubs and bushes are subject to destruction by the scale but all bard wood growth in our forests as well may be ruinod tbe enor mous loss suffered in the 17 states of the neighboring republic where tho scale is ravaging is but a measure of what this province will escape by the governments admirable action quite appropriate in this connection is tbe following extract from an iotervlew with mr albert pay proprietor of the prospect hill fruit farm near 8c cathar ines ontario in tbo buffalo kxprtw of january 8th instant my politics are oppodod to tbe government of ontario said mr pay but i

tbe oomp lotion of tbe bill bat we were not the bill was drafted and was submitted to ub for onr approval we found the groaud fully covered and instead of teaching the minis ter bow to preserve the frnit we found our selves listening to mr drydens plans it would be impossible to find a mote oapable minister of agriculture in tbe province we were delighted with him it is tbe governments intention continued mr pay to destroy or cause to be destroyed every fruit tree that is known to be infected with tbe sin jose scale it is believed that the pest waa brought in to canada from united states nurseries and it has become so fatal to the frnlt trees tbat extreme measures are necessary the bill provides for compen sation to an amount which will enable the grower to replace the trees wltboui any expense to himself and the pmalty for neglecting to destroy infected treea is auqh as to induce every owner of an orchard to ee that this is carried out when the infected trees are destroyed we can then start over again under a new law providing fpr tbe rigid inspection of all imported nursery stock and the exoluiioo of trees affeoted by the scale- the board off ed organized for tho present
