 Star The large and overfbwlng patronage of the San Xavier hotel under the management of Capt Tevis, is showing the necessity of the hotel being enlarged. It is the hope of many of our leading citizens that an addition of at least thirty or forty rooms will be made for the winter and fall rush of guests to lthe city. The San Xavier grounds are sufficiently large to make the addition much to be desired and it hoped the s. P.

MEXICAN ORANGES.

The following item was clipped from the OASIS:
 MT. J. Sres0vith of Los Angeles, the well known fruit packer and ship per, came up from Hermosillo, where he has been three weeks, buying the coming crops of oranges in several groves. Tonight he will go to Tue son, thence to California. They will begin shipping oranges about the middle of November The crop MT. 5. describes as being very good, and shipments the coming season will be larger than ever before.
 The interesting part about this is "where will these oranges be inspect ed?" The dreaded Morelos orange worm must be kept out of South Cali fornia at any cost and at all hazards. These is no more dangerous pest on earth than this same worm. 1t abso- lutely renders the orange uneatable, and the party biting into one of these worms will not soon want any oran- ges at all.-The Citrograph.
 The Morelos orange worm is un- known in Sonora, aud cannot reach there. Its habitat is in the eastern slope of the Sierra Madre, and nothing comes this way which can bring 1t to Sonora.
