THE FRUIT INDUSTRY.
Letter to Nurseymen from the State Board o.
Horticulture.
THE NECESSITY OF PROPER CULTURE.


At n melting of the state board of
horticulture held today the following
letter was drafted to be sent to the
various fruit growers Of the State:
To all Nurserymcn: Uealizlng that
the intcrests OF the tree grower and
tree planter are closely allied. the State
board Of horticulture takes pleasure
In congratulating all nurserymen
upon the great revival Of interest APP
parent in the matter of fruit tree
planting throughout this state There
~ no room for doubt that the 1udicious
planting of properly grown stock
WILL FOR many years to come, prove
iemuneratiNe to Utah farmers. There
u a growing tendency to patroniZe
utah nurseries exclusively ami almost
without exception. We believe the
patronage thus bestowed is merlted.
In view of this very gratifying con-
dltion, the state board OF horticulture
believes that the nurserymen through
out the state win readily cooperate
with this board in all reasonable ef-
forts To eradicate every form of in
stock.
In compliance with the provisions
of the horticulture law the State board
viii insist upon strict enforcement OF
the sections requiring disinfeCtiOn OF
nursery stock. The attention Of all
persons concerned Is especially called
TO sections tenG0) and eleven I'D OF
the horticulture law. The various
county fruit tree inspectors acting un-
der the direction of the state board OF
horticulture. VIII be charged with the
enforcement Of the law on this subject
In the work Of distinction herein re-
ferred to. the formulas approved by
the department Of agriculture at
Washington viii be insisted upon"
The letter is signed by President
Thomas Judd, president O. H
BomsterbCrg and Secretary j. a.
Wright.
At the meeting 1t was also decided
that bulletin on the winter storage
of fresh fruits and the fall cleaning OF
orchards should be issued in the near
future, and any one making applica-
tiun to any member Of the board can
get a copy free of charge.

PARADE POSTPONED.


The advertising columns of the two
morning dailies Of this city bristled
with calls today signed by w. A.
stanton, summoning the Salt Lake
Liberal Drum corps Of 1890 and sym
pathzlng citizens" TO meet at 1852
south East Temple street. at high noon
and make arrangements for a public
parade this evening.
The hail named is the Newsboys'
headquarters and at Il o'clock, the
time set forth in the call. News"
representative made his way up the
stairs and found Major Stanton and
two friends in solemn session. The
former stated that there had been an
adjournment until 1880. at which time
the regular meeting would be held AT
that hour the reporter again visited the
place, which was this time devoid of
all life, except that exhibited by a
couple Of risky ncwsboys who were
hopping about the han playing hand
ball. The boys, however, said that
there had been meeting during the
recess and that the Drum corps would
meet for practice tonight and that the
parade had been postponed until to-
morrow night.
In the meantime two of the old
banners borne by the drum corps in
lsSS-9O, one of them bearing the in
scription "a finishing stroke" hang
on the outer wall Of the building where
their presence seems to excite neither
favorable or unfavorable comment,

when boiling is justitiRb.e, and II the
