DEMAND FOR NURSERY STOCK.
Modification of "San Jose Scale Act
by Canada.

An order In council has recently been
passed by the Canadian government modi-
fyins the operations of the san Jose scale
act which has heretofore practically pro-
hibited the importation from the United
States of all kinds of nursery stock, ac-
cording to a report to the State Depart
ment from Consul Graham at Winnipeg
The act exempts from the San Jose act
any trees, shrubs, plants vines, gratis cut
tiEgs or buds. commonly known as nursery
stock, from any country to which the act
applies, and all importations of such shrub
berry are PERMITTED to be entered at the Gus
toms ports of Winnipeg between March l.
and May Il, ana October Z and December
:; and at the customs port of Vancouver,
4. c.. from October IL to March l5 En-
tries are not permitted at other ports than
those mentioned. The plants must be thor
oughly fumigated, but the Canadian gov
ernment assumes no responsibility for any
damage resulting.
The general tariff laws imposes a duty
of 3 cents or each budded or improved
f uit or shade tree, and an ad yalorem
duty of 20 per cent shrubbery imported
from the United States. Seeding stock
for grating and florists stock in general
are admitted free of duty.
Consul Graham SAYS III conclusion that
there is a growing demand for nursery
stock in Manitoba and the northwest ter
rtorieS and that the United States should
supply it in large measure, nOtwithStand-
ing the tariff, as trees grown in our north
western states best adapted to the
Canadian climate.

1t Will Come OF in June Unless Terms
Are Agreed Upon.

A strike by the coal miners OF France
planned to be general and to include all
the miners in the country, is scheduled To
take place about the end of the coming
June, unless terms are agreed upon before
the date This latter eventually is not ex-
pected, according to United States Consul
Brunot at St. Etienne in a communication
to the Department Of State. There is likeli-
hood. too. that other trades will join the
strike. for iron workers. furnace men and
machinistS realize that the scarcity Of fuel
caused by a strike Of the miners will also
throw them out of employment. The silk
and velvet ribbon weavers are discussing
the propriety of striking at the same time
that the blow falls from the coal miners.
During the past winter the retail price
of coal was SO high that the government
was appealed to for reduction of the
duties on foreign coal. but this appeal was
not granted. However says Consul Bru-
not. should the domestic supply be further
curtailed and prices advanced by reason of
another strike, ii is not improbable that
upon the renewal of demands the govern
ment will take measures to. facilitate the
importation of coal by a reduction of duties
and railway freight rates.
Several colleries in the st. Etienne dis
trict recently closed on account of strikes,
and these and the strike at Marseilles har-

BORING FOR OIL IN MEXICO.
CalifOrnfans Bay Large Tracts Z
Land and Machinery,


For many years." says Consul Magfll at
Tampico. Mexico. in a communication to
the State Department, 1T has been be-
lieved by experts that petroleum existed in
Mexico especially along the gulf coast, and
several parties in years past have drilled
in that vicinity (Tampico) in the hope of
finding it; but no really determined effort
has been made until quite recently, and
owners of land are awaiting the results
of that effort with great deal of anxiety"
The chief indication that petroleum does
exist here lies in the fact that there are
numerous wells of asphalt.
The consul says that eastern oil men
have passed by this territory. as the sur
face indications were not good, according
to their experience In the eastern fields so
1t remained for California eXperimenters
flushed with success from their oil invest
ments in that state. to detect the posi-
bilities from the similarity Of the sur
face conditions between California and
Mexico. This fact is emphasized by their
purchasing large tracts of land building
houses and ordering machinery, prepara-
tory to sinking experimental wells. There
is also an English company operating in the
vicinity of Yer Cruz, the results of it's
experiments not having been disclosed as
yet.
The consul concludes by saying: sit is
the general opinion here that IL oil is found
in paying quantities it will be similar to
that produced in California-unprofitab able
to refine. but good for fuel. As coal is ex-
penSive here and wood is becoming scarcer
each year, fuel oil will find ready mar
ket. even II found in large quantities.
