TO ENFORCE INSPECTION
WOULD EXCLUDE ALL FRUIT

Owing to the great scarcity of fruit
this winter, William Mohl. horticultural
commissioner for this district, finds
it inexpedient to enforce the inspection
laws to point where 1t would mean
the total exclusion of all fruit from
the markets.

mention that the poor quality of the
fruit seen in the Lewiston markets
would indicate that the inspection laws
were not enforced. Mr.. Mohl states
that he would prefer to have the fruit
inspection laws adhered to by both the
grower and seller, but the circum-
stances will not permit 1t at this time.
