In a previous publication (131)x the writer collected data on the more practical aspects of the white-pine blister rust, as presented in European literature. Experience has shown that the white-pine blister rust has come to North America to stay and that most careful and searching investi- gations must be maintained to enable us to cope with it at all success- fully. Investigations in Europe have been carried on -in a desultory way for 35 years. In North America they were begun less than 15 years ago. Really intensive work has been in progress for only about 5 years. Considerable new experimental work has been done in Europe since the appearance of this earlier publication. At various times since 1911 some of the more salient results of the
