Request Of Governor For

WOULD STOP FRUIT CANkER
Governor TrammeII Used $1,000 OF
State Funds Already To Stamp

Palatka.-The board of trade re
ceived telegram from the West Palm
Beach board of trade asking that the
governor be requested to call an extra
session of the legislature to provide
ways and means to suppress the cit
rus canker, as Palm Beach county was
helpless. Secretary Folsom at once
wrote the following letter to Governor
Trammell:
"A telegram from the West Palm
Beach board of trade asks us to urge
upon you the need of an extra session
of the legislature to provide ways and
means Of fighting the citrus canker,
before which the people of Palm Beach
seem helpless and they think that the
whole state is threatened. AS far as
known the only trees in this county
from infected nurseries down there
are at Melrose.
81 have talked with Messrs. Russell
and Mckenzie and they say that what
ever you may do in your knowledge of
the situation will have their endorse
ment and this board will support il"
The governor promptly replied with
the following:
Your letter of the 9Th instant in
which you advise me of the request
from the West Palm Beach board of
trade that you urge upon me the need
of an extra session of the legislature
to provide ways and means of fighting
the citrus canker, received.
Replying, will state that for the
past two or three months l have been
active in trying to assist in the mat
ter of carrying on the campaign to ex-
terminate this disease. l have used
thousand dollars of state funds for
this purpose, and have twice issued an
address to the citizens of the state and
those especially in the citrus belt, urg-
ing them to contribute funds to aid in
the efforts to stamp out the canker.
when | last saw Doctor Berger, the
state nursery inspector, which was
about two weeks ago, he informed me-
that splendid progress had been made
and that they felt hopeful that the sit
uation was well in hand. He, how
ever, at that time, expressed the view
that more funds were needed, and sug
gested that l address the people of the
state asking them to make contribu
lions for the purpose of carrying on
the campaign. l complied with his re-
quest and have not since heard from
him. will be pleased to again confer
with Doctor Berger and do everything

NORTH ATLANTIC FLEET

tleship feet, all of the torpedo boats
and submarines of the United States
navy are to come here next month and
spend several weeks in joint maneuv-
ers with the navy aeroplane corps.
This authentic news was received here
coming from Newport, l.. l., where
many of the battleships are stationed.
Admiral Fletcher will command the
battleships and Commander Sims will
be in charge of the torpedo boats and
aeroplanes. The maneuvers Will be
carried through for the purpose OF
testing out the submarines and ascer-
tanning which is the best type of that
class of naval vessel The deadly work
they have done in the European war
has caused the navy department to de-
eide upon a series of tests and these
will be of the practical kind. Day
and night attacks will be made upon
the battleships, with the torpedo boat
destroyers and aeroplanes playing
their part in the war game. The aer-
oplanes will be used to detect the sub
marines underneath the water, as e1
periments here last year showed that
an aviator at great altitude could
detect objects at the bottom OF the
bay. The entire battleship fleet of
twenty or more ships of that class, all
of the forty or more torpedo boat de-
stroyers and every one of the subma-
rines, even to those in reserve, will
be sent South, leaving their home sta
lions early in December. They will

FALL OF TSING-TAU.
Germany Loses Last Foothold on
Asiatic Mainland,


The German fortress of Tsing-T Tau has
surrendered to the Japanese and British
forces.
The first step in bringing about the
surrender of the fortress occurred when
the infantry charged and occupied the
middle fort of the line of defense. In
this operation they took 200 prisoners.
The fall of Tsing-Tau ends the most
picturesque f the minor phases of the
great world-war now raging.
On two continents and in many is
lands of the seas where colonies of the
warning nations were planted combats
of more or less interest have taken place,
garrisons have been captured and towns
occupied peacefully, but in the little Ger
man concession on the south side of the
Shsntung peninsula of China there has
been going on since late in August re-
duced scale of war that from all sc-
counts has duplicated nearly all fea-
lures of those battles in Europe that
have resulted in the capture of fortified
positions.
The capture of Tsing-Tau loses to
Germany her last foot of possessions on
the Asiatic mainland, as well as her last
strstegetic position outside of the Ger
man empire in Europe.

UNITED STATES PLANS
FOR 10000 RESERVES
War Department operating With
Many Educational institutions.

A reserve army that will consist OF
more than 100000 in five years is being
trained by the war department in go
operation with educational institutions
and organizations advocating the up
building of national defense machine
Foremost among the agencies for the
establishment of the reserves are the
students of military instruction camps,
although the National Rifle Association
of America. the Army league and other
organizations are strong factors in the
movement Students between the ages
of eighteen and thirty in universities,
colleges and the graduating classes of
high schools were trained at the camps
during the last summer, only those
physically qualified for military service
being enrolled Army officers are de
tailed to these camps, and where pos
sible regulars are present to give
touch of realism to the encampment
"rhe object of camps is to give the
young men of the country opportunity
for a short course In military training
the better to fit them to discharge their
military duty should their country ever
stand In need of their services" says
the war department
1.-The benefit of these camps to the
nation is that they foster a patriotic
spirit, without which nation soon
loses its virility and falls into decay;
they spread among the citizens Of the
country a more thorough knowledge of
military history, military policy and
military needs. all necessary to the
complete education of well equipped
citizen
AS n military asset these camps are
of great value since they afford the
means of m+ terially increasing the
military reserve of the United States
by instructing class of educated men
from which in time Of national emer
gency would probably be drawn a
large proportion of the volunteer com
