STATE BOARD TO FIGHT
DANGEROUS INSECT PEST
Thirty Thousand Copies of the
Boards Annual Report
Ordered Printed

The state board of trade held its
regular meeting yesterday afternoon.
The chief business of the session was
the reading of the annual report of the
board The report was approved and
10000 copies were ordered printed. II
has been the custom in the past to
print only 10000 copies Of the report,
but the demand for it has become so
great that the additional number was
considered a necessity. The volume
this year contains an, unusual amount
of valuable statistical information
concerning the resources and products
OF the state,
The board also decided to cooperate
with the department of agriculture in
waging a systematic war on the thrips,
an insect pest which threatens to ruin
the prune and pear orchards of the
state unless its ravages are checked.
E. D. Anderson. the member from Con-
ira Costa county, called the attention
of the board to the seriousness of the
pest by asserting that the orchards
of his neighborhood have been almost
totally ruined by II. Colonel j. P.
Irish and Z. W Maslin were appointed
TO confer with the secretary of agri-
culture in regard to definite plans for
lighting the pest.
