CITRUS LEAVES BY MAIL
MAY SPREAD CANKER

The following precautions, issued
by William Newell, plant commits
sioner to the State Plant Board.
/ should be observed in sending citrus
leaves by mail
Persons who wish to send citrus
leaves to the State Plant Board at
Gainesville or to the Department Of
Agriculture at Washington to learn
whether such leaves show evidences
of citrus canker should take pains to
ST" that they are sent only in strong,
substantial, tin or wooden boxes
which are securely wrapped and
scaled When specimens of this
kind are sent in letters or pastebord
boxes, the latter are invariably
broken open en- route.
The distribution of disease germs
which would follow the breaking cf
fragile packages, in case they did
contain diseased material, can read
lily be imagined. The Plant Board
particularly requests its correspond
ents to exercise all possible precau-
tions in this matter. 1T is just an
other important case of safety
first.
