onies of bees from every county in
the states of Utah, Wyoming and
Idaho was declared by A. j. Cook,
State Horticultural Commissioner,
and Acting Governor Wallace, in an
effort to prevent the advent into this
state of the pest known as PhytonO-
nous POsticus (alfalfa weeviD and
to insure safety to the estimated $50,
600, 900 alfalfa crop.
The proclamation bearing the seal
of the Governor, was forwarded to all
horticultural and quarantine officers,
Whether this strict quarantine will
be effective Dr. Cook is unable to
state. He declares the weevil is
more likely to enter the state through
these agencies than in any other way
although it has been shown in sew
eral instances that the pests migrate
on the wing and even are transport
ed to various sections in passenger
cars
Four hundred square miles of al
falfa crops are suffering from attacks
of the weevil i'm Utah, Wyoming and
Idaho. Utah is experiencing the
greatest trouble. The loss to farm
ers in alfalfa crops i'm these three
states will amount into the millions
as a result of the pest.

PETITION FOR DAILY MAIL.

Petitions are being circulated in

three-mails-a-week service at present,
Copies of the petition were posted
in the postiffices Blythe, Neighbours.

and other copies are being circulated
all over the valley.
The rapidly increasing population
of the valley and the marked acti-
witty i'm every line Of industry should
make the matter OF daily mail vital
matter to every Palo Verdean as it
will remove a big handicap in bust

reached the place where the present
