Excerpt from News Letter, Plant Quarantine and Control Administration, Vol. 16: April 1, 1932
Nursery stock shipping through Saint Paul and Minneapolis during the fall of 1931 was almost 15 per cent less than that in the fall of 1930, ao cording to a statement by George N. Nelson, transit inspector at the Twin Cities, in his recent annual report. The week having the largest number of shipments came earlier than last year, the peak of the 1931 fall shipping having been reached the second week in October, while in 1930 it was not reached until Thanksgiving. The total number of violations intercepted, however, Mr. Nelson states, is 20, the same as last year. They were as fol lows: Four violations of the Japanese beetle quarantine, 9 of the white-pine blister rust, and 7 of the narcissus bulb quarantine. Mbre violations were intercepted in the mail than in express and freight combined.
