horticultural Interests.
The horticultural interests Of New
Mexico have become of very great Inn
portance to our people ia the last few
years. Thousands OF dollars have been

results and profits are shown. Our
orchards should be protected and that
interest should be encouraged In ev-
cry way possible. The fruit OF New
Mexico should be preserved In all It's

that end ! would recommend 10 you
the enactment of law ample and
sufficient TO fully protect that indus
try, encourage and increase the invest
ment In the same.
