The petition, together with the re-

The Citrus Canker.

Prof. A. P. Spencer, U. S. Farm
Demonstration agent for the East
Florida district, was here on Monday
and says the citrus canker situation
in Dade county is serious. He spent ten
days among the infected groves and
There seems to be no
remedy for the disease except to burn
the trees, as all sprays fail. Hun
dreds of thousands of trees in nur-
series and groves have been burned.
Shipments of trees from nurseries
now infected have been made to all
parts of the State, the nearest point
to Pa'atka to which trees have baan
sent is Melrose.
This new enemy must be stamped
out or else great loss will come to the
State. The canker seems to have
preference for grapefruit and tanger-
inc trees, and so closely resembles
scab that it is hard to distinguish
from it. 1t is supposed to have been
from Mexico, where it has
wrought great damage. Prof. Spen-
GER advises that all grove owners make
careful study of conditions among
their trees, and if in doubt send leaves
and twigs under seal to the State EX-
pertinent Station at Gainesville.
In Dade county last Tuesday Rev.
J. R. Walker brought suit against
Frank Sterling, an inspector of cit
rus trees, charging that the inspector
entered his grove and destroyed trees
with canker. Judge Barco
in giving his decision, discharged the
inspector on the ground of "the great
est good to the greatest number" the
same being one of the highest princl-
pies of the common law.
