articles specified were ''all foreign fruit
plants" ETC., meaning plants imported
for transplanting, propagation Or ex-

hyphen in the compound word fruit.

''all foreign fruits. plants" etc. AS a
result Of this simple mistake for "a
year. or until congress could remedy
the blunder, all the oranges, lemons.
bananas, grapes and other foreign
fruits were admitted free of duty. This
