May Quarantine Oregon Because Of Pine Disease
Because of the appearance in Oregon of the white pine blister rust, a dangerous plant disease, the Secretary of Agriculture has given notice of a hearing to be held at Washington, January 8, in the offices of the Federal Horticultural Board. It is proposed to prohibit the movement from Oregon into other states and territories of all fiveleafed pin-s, and currant and gooseberry plants, the latter being ihe intermediate host plants necessary in carrying the disease from one pine tree to another. It is expected that with state co-operation, it will be possible to limit the restrictions of the quarantine to the infected western portion of the state. All persons interested may apPear and be heard either in per5on or by attorney at this hearing, which will begin at 10 a.m.
