[1911] Sept 22 Examined the Albion Nursery at Albion having come up from Lincoln as far as Columbus last night. Found a little powdery mildew. Very little stock and that in good condition. Left for Humphrey at 2:00 PM and arrived at Humphrey at 5:00 P.M when I examined the Humphrey Nurseries. In the apples found red-humped apple-tree caterpillars on a few trees - in plum a few of the same striped leafroller found at York - the cottonwoods considerbly defoliated by cottonwood dagger moth - Datanas present among apples earlier in the season according to Mr. Backes Nothing else found and left for Norfolk which was reached at 9:30 PM. Sept. 23 Inspected the Norfolk Nursery and Elkhorn Nursery. In Norfolk Nursery found some powdery mildew and black knob on plum - also plum aphis - only a fair amount of stuff and apparently clean. In Elkhorn Nursery found only a few rows of cherry and apple - no insects but a little mildew. Left at 12:50 after hours visit with Mr. Sessions. He reports the Blackheaded Grosbeak common about his home this summer, the first ever noted. Reached Lincoln at 6:15 PM.
