  show that it is not intended that the nurseryman simplylprint belle
  , on his shipping tags a copy of the inspector’s certificate, but i dest.
;  ~ that he certify under his own hand that each separate pack- , IQOC
  i ` age is made up of stock which has been examined by the q
  l inspector. Laws of other states are not the same in this i
    respect and this has probably in some cases contributed to the  
i   1 misunderstanding. Yet the reason for the requirement will COVE
      be plain when it is remembered thatthe inspector cannot be
§   4 at hand when the packages are made up for delivery, and
    ° 4 could not therefore honestly say that the contents of a given
1 { , package were free from destructive pests. In other words, he 1;
E   . the nurseryman is, in the nature of the case, the proper person appt
ll to say that his packages have been inspected and found `
l   healthy. The inspector simply pronounces on the growing
    stock belonging to a nurseryman, whereas his packages may ` COW
  1 be made up of stuff from several outside nurseries. This I
` _ , outside material has of course been received by him under a
1 I certificate, and our law requires him to certify to the fact as
. [ i _ well as to the fact that his home-grown stock has been pro- Ghz
[     nounced upon by an official inspector. mol
"     Inquiries sometimes reach me as to the proper form of Gel
    this nurseryman’s certificate. The law does not prescribe any the
if , special form, but the following may be suggested. Ulu
  ` i Have the inspection certificate printed 011 the back of 1 AN
Lid i your shipping tags and below it certify under your own hand
    that the stock bearing the tag is covered by this or other hav,
  p i official certificates, as follows: ’ atm
