FUMIGATION RULES
STIR UP RANCHMEN
Ontario Orange Growers Complain
About Action of Supervisors
In Passing a stricter
Ordinance

ONTARIO, Sept. 16.-Local people
whose orange groves will have to be
fumigated this season are complain
ing of the action of the county board
of supervisors in passing an ordinance
making the rules for fumigation very
strict, among other things fixing the
amount of acid which shall be used.
1t is charged that the restrictions
were placed on the work in order that
the growers would become unwilling to
do their own fumigating, thereby Civ
ing the county officers a chance to
do the work at a large profit. The
people at the county seat deny these
charges and state that such restric-
tions We're needful.
