INSECTION WORK PESTS FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES KEPT OUT California the Greatest Fruit Producing Center in the World Has Evolved Principles and Practices of Orchard Management Unknown Heretofore The following paper entitled "The Value of Horticultural Inspection Work," was read before the recent Farmers' Institute held in Anaheim by Fred K. Maskew, horticultural inspector of Los Angeles county: California is beyond question the greatest fruit-producing center in the world today. The practical experience attendant upon the development of the industry to its present magnitude has evolved principles and practices of orchard management hitherto unknown to horticulture, and of the many innovations along this line made in California none has been so widely copied as the system of horticultural inspection and the methods of insect control. Of the latter it may be said that fumigation originated in California, so did the live sulphur and salt, the resin and the distillate washes, and last, but not least by any means, the practical demonstration on an extensive scale of the value and efficiency of insect control by the importation of their natural enemies. The very conditions that made possible the state of this latter phase of the cooperation of the transportation companies can hardly be estimated in dollars and cents. With a commendable desire to introduce and test new and desirable varieties of fruit, orders for trees are often sent to dealers in many different parts of the world. In perhaps not one instance in a hundred such cases is the danger of introducing injurious insects or diseases ever given a second thought by the purchasers, and were it not for the concerted actions on the part of the agents of the railroads the majority of these shipments would be taken away and planted without any inspection whatever. We often think that in California we surely have all the ills that trees and fruit are heir to, but the fact is we have but a small quota of the full complement of the injurious insects of the world. It is further true that more new and different varieties of injurious insects, far more than all such as we already have here put together, are detected and destroyed every year by the inspection of trees and plants coming into the state. This is where the value of the inspector's training comes in. Long practice has made him not only familiar with the color, size and shape of the different pests common to the country, but he has also become versed in their habits and knows where to look for them in their different life stages; and further, the responsibility for and the pride he takes in his own district has caused him to study up on the different insects infesting such trees in other parts of the world. Equipped with this knowledge, he has only to learn from what parts the trees came from to commence an intelligent search for such insects as would be likely to accompany them. In cases of my own experience with shipments of trees from parts other than California almost invariably has any search been rewarded by finding upon them the insects I had anticipated, offender, the grower himself. In some instances he brought his own infested fruit to market; in others he had come to investigate what was wrong with the peddlers and dealers in that they would not buy any more of his fruit. While some of these were informed in no uncertain terms, they were invariably referred to the "bug-man" for an explanation. This we believed was to be the turning point, and every effort was made to make the most of it. The choice of two alternatives, the court of the dump, was offered, courteously but firmly. It was explained as clearly possible that this was no attempt to work any hardship upon them; that the quarantine was applied to the fruit for the sole reason of the scale bugs being upon it; that the removal of these upon the premises where grown would also remove the restriction of its sale and that the process simply consisted of the vigorous application of a cloth or scrubbing brush. As we had anticipated very rarely was more than one experiment of this kind needed to convince the expert officer that the labor attendant upon this method of killing scale upon a crop of fruit was far greater and more costlous than several sprayings and that perhaps there might be something in spraying after all. This was the beginning of an interest in the matter, which is half that battle. An explanation of other benefits to be derived from better methods of production could be added later on as interest in the matter grew. We had started out to give an object lesson. Our point had been won and while this means employed had been of a circular nature they had produced results that have proven cumulative, and as stated before fully justified the time and attention given to the matter. In the orchards the scope and value of the inspector's work broadens in every direction. His best efforts here should be along educational lines. The very conditions that made possible the successful cultivation and growth of such an infinite variety of fruits also made necessary the system of horticultural inspection as it exists today. The earlier introduction into the state of fruit and ornamental trees from other countries brought with them the insect pests that had attacked and fed upon them and their kind for many years. Unfortunately they did not bring with them the class of insects that had held these pests. In check in their native habitat. Relieved from this control, surrounded on all sides by an unlimited food supply in a climate most conducive to their fullest development, these inconspicuous and apparently insignificant little pests quickly adapted themselves to the conditions of their new surroundings and increased and multiplied in such numbers and attacked the trees with such vigor as to threaten the very existence of the orchards. As a means to check and control the introduction and further spread of these enemies to the fruit grower, the system of horticultural inspection was devised. In support of the thoroughness with which the system was organized and the vigor with which it has been prosecuted, I will state that from the date of its inception up to the present time but one new species of insect injurious to fruit trees has been able to establish itself in the state. What is probably the most important part of this work done in Los Angeles county consists of the inspection of each individual tree or plant embraced in all incoming and outgoing shipments and the regular and systematic inspection of growing nursery stock. When we stop to consider that the present facilities of transportation which enable the grower or dealer in almost any part of the world to guarantee the arrival of plants in good condition, also covers the arrival in good condition of any insect plants that may come with them, the value of this inspection work becomes apparent. This is police work pure and simple; no evasions, no explanations will avail—the orders from headquarters are imperative and any infestation or evidence of disease upon a tree or plant is sufficient to cause the detention of the entire shipment. The policy of the commission is to the effect that every new orchard shall have a fair start and that the trees that are to constitute the orchard shall be free of insect pests and evidence of disease when first set out. The inspector is held personally responsible for each shipment for which he gives a certificate; the certificates are taken up and returned to headquarters and once a board management nither too unknown to horticulture, and of the many innovations along this line made in California none has been so widely copied as the system of horticultural inspection and the methods of insect control.

The inspector is held personally responsible for each shipment for which he gives a certificate; the certificates are taken up and returned to headquarters and once a month the inspector is held to account for any irregularities that may have occurred. The public are requested to assist in these efforts to furnish nothing but clean stock by demanding a certificate covering any and all purchases made, and this work is made more complete by the co-operation of the various transportation companies who refuse to receive any shipments of plants or trees not accompanied by a certificate of health and cleanliness and who also refuse to deliver any shipments of this kind without the presence or consent of the inspector of the district. The value to the orchardists of The next undertaking was to control and convert the peddlers. With this class the great desideratum is the profits. The ethics of the case does not appeal to them. Cheap fruit is what they are looking for, and the logic of their reasoning is that the spread of a few more scale bugs will probably add more orchards to the source of supply controlled by them. Unfortunately for the cause the peddlers, while constituting the majority of offenders against the law, were not the ones we were trying to reach, but they were compelled to suffer the consequences in order that the desired end might be obtained and themselves made the indirect means of attaining it. The first time they were caught in the act the scope of the law was explained to them and they were allowed the privilege of returning the fruit and removing the bugs. Every repetition of the offense invariably led them to the dump and the persistency with which some of them took chances must have made them familiar with every step of the road to that resort.

NUMBER 25 CHAPMAN WRITES OF ORANGES Well-Known Local Authority Gives Views Relative to Methods of Marketing. C. C. Chapman, who owns the magnificent Santa Isabel ranch, three miles north of this city, is regarded throughout Southern California as probably the most successful orange grower in the State. Certain it is that he has achieved and is achieving success in his method of marketing fruit. Mr. Chapman has written the following letter relative to marketing methods of the fruit agency, which should command careful perusal at this time, when that subject is now engaging the best thought of the orchardist: "The failure of the agency to market the fruit profitably has caused widespread dissatisfaction among growers. While we sadly realize this, which is proving a great blow to the citrus industry, it is difficult to say just what can be done to materially and at once change conditions for the better. These who are now at the head of the marketing agency are men of large experience who possess keen business ability, and I have no doubt are anxious to market the remainder of the crop to the profit of growers. I would indeed regret to think that they would hesitate to do anything within their power to bring results of which every orange grower is in need. "There are numerous reasons for the failure of the combine to get prices for oranges which should have been gotten. A combination of circumstances prevailed to prevent this, some of which could not altogether have been overcome. The severe weather continuing for weeks was an important factor. I will not, however, attempt to discuss this question in all its bearings as it presents itself to me, but there are one of two factors which I think trade and facilities for handling the fruit which they had been years in building up, and they naturally were not in a very generous frame of mind when the old method was changed. Thus this important channel of distributing oranges was eliminated and new channels must to a large extent be made, and this in the face of opposition and according to methods the practicability of which have never been successfully demonstrated. "Right on the heels of adopting the policy just referred to, which was distasteful to the trade, the agency adopted a still more ruinous policy. They not only deprived the trade of its accustomed business, according to the old methods, but they antagonized the trade. Methods were adopted which were wholly distasteful to those who were handling oranges, and thus the antagonism of the entire trade throughout the country was aroused. I hardly see how it is possible to reach the consumers of our oranges when the very channels through which they must necessarily pass are thus antagonized, or at least indifferent as to results. "I am also informed that a serious mistake was made by the lowering of marketing expense. There being a flat rate charged the growers for putting oranges on the market, it was thought to be a piece of prudent economy, doubtless, to cheapen the expenses in selling. This was one of the objects of the combine. They did cheapen them at this end by closing many of their packing-houses and dispensing with much of their help. They cheapened them in the East by the employment of less help, as well as cheaper help. Some of it, it is claimed, was inexperienced and wholly incompetent for the management of such a large business as was committed to it." FRATERNAL AID Anaheim Council, Fraternal Aid Association, held a reception Saturday evening of last week in honor of the An explanation of other benefited from better methods could be added later on in the matter grew. We decided to give an object lesson. He had been won and while employed had been of a circuit where they had produced results proven cumulative, and as I before fully justified the time action given to the matter. Hereards the scope and value inspector's work broadens in detection. His best efforts here along educational lines. It evident that he should be able and point out the insect pests affecting the trees and offer the prescribed remedies should be able to lead the way to this standpoint. And by using the life history and habits insects and the fundamental governing the preparing and control of remedies, enable him to totally continue the work after action visit is past. Assumed that the inspector has himself for this purpose by a good working knowledge project in general. Perhaps one of methods of acquiring this notion is a thorough study of the prepared and furnished by acts of the department of agriculture and different experimenters. The list of subjects covered feedingly comprehensive one, federal education along these be had at cost of a few postal this, coupled with his actual use in the orchards and knowledge results of different experi- would qualify him for this work necessarily in most instances very nature.

I will not, however, attempt to discuss this question in all its bearings as it presents itself to me, but there are one of two factors which, I think, have contributed more than any others toward the absolute failure of the system which we all looked forward to with such promise, and which was thought to be by its originators the solution of all the difficulties in the marketing of our large and increasing orange crop. These were all discussed in brilliant terms by its promoters, and glowing promises made, and I have no doubt that at that time these gentlemen supposed these would all be realized. "Right at the start, however, they made a fatal blunder, and that was an attempt to coerce the growers into their ranks. This worked very nicely with many, but, naturally, it antagonized some, and caused them to look to other channels through which to market their fruit. "Following this effort to secure control of all oranges, it was likewise attempted to control the markets. One method adopted to accomplish this seems to have been to drive from business the so-called independent shippers. The statements were made by the employees at least that this was the policy. "To this policy of ruining the independent shippers evidently a large percentage of fruit committed to the agency has been devoted. "The undertaking has been a very much bigger one than they thought it would be when they began. For its very policy has driven business into the hands of the independents. It seemed to the Agency, doubtless, that the sacrifice of a small amount of fruit would completely upset the Independent shippers, and this they were willing to sacrifice, believing it to be 'for the good of the industry.' This pet phrase has been a little overworked, I fear, and the growers are getting to feel that the industry should be in pretty good shape by this time, as so many things have been done 'for the good of the industry.' This policy of clearing the field of all competition is proving ruinous to the Agency as well as disastrous to the growers. Personally, I have no grievance against the management of the Agency, the Citrus Union or the Exchange, except that I have suffered on account of the continued low market. "The independent shippers, I believe, have uniformly done better than those inside the Citrus Union. "Another factor which has contributed largely toward the failure of the agency's policy was the radical change in refusing to use the ordinary channel through which to reach There are numerous reasons for the failure of the combine to get prices for oranges which should have been gotten.

One method adopted to accomplish this seems to have been to drive from business the so-called independent shippers. The statements were made by the employees at least that this was the policy. "To this policy of ruining the independent shippers evidently a large percentage of fruit committed to the agency has been devoted. "The undertaking has been a very much bigger one than they thought it would be when they began. For its very policy has driven business into the hands of the independents. It seemed to the Agency, doubtless, that the sacrifice of a small amount of fruit would completely upset the Independent shippers, and this they were willing to sacrifice, believing it to be 'for the good of the industry.' This policy of clearing the field of all competition is proving ruinous to the Agency as well as disastrous to the growers.

A combination of circumstances prevailed to prevent this, some of which could not altogether have been overcome. The severe weather continuing for weeks was an important factor. I will not, however, attempt to discuss this question in all its bearings as it presents itself to me, but there are one of two factors which, I think, have contributed more than any others toward the absolute failure of the system which we all looked forward to with such promise, and which was thought to be by its originators the solution of all the difficulties in the marketing of our large and increasing orange crop. These were all discussed in brilliant terms by its promoters, and glowing promises made, and I have no doubt that at that time these gentlemen supposed these would all be realized.
