CITRUS CANKER CREATING
GRAVE SITUATION IN FLORIDA

Orlando, July 7.-Mr Lloyd S.
Tenny, member of the State Plant
Board recently created by the Leg
islature, appeared before the county
commissioners yesterday and pre-
sented the matter of preventing the
spread of citrus canker, and asked
that the commissioners appropriate
$500 toward the expense of making
. thorough survey of Orange county
to discover if the disease existed in
this county.
Subsequently Mr. Tenny outlined
the situation to a newspaper man,
reviewing the fight that had been
undertaken in Dade county several
months ago, how it had proceeded
first under the direction of the
Florida Growers and Shippers
League and later was taken up by
the Plant Board after the Legisla-
ture had appropriated money to
carry on the work In spite of all
the work that has been done in
Dade county the situation is far
from satisfactory, and the growers
there are now aroused to the point
that they are demanding even more
stringent methods in the fight than
the Plant Board is employing. Mr..
Tenny stated that it would not be
surprising to see the destruction of
entire groves in which infected
! trees were found. Heretofore only
the infected trees have been
destroyed. The condition in Dade
county may be duplicated in any
other county where the disease gets
a start, and for that reason Mr..
Tenny made his appeal to the Or
ange county board for assistance IN
going through every grove In the
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1915-07-07

Mr.. Tenny has had broad expert
of fruit trees. In fact this has been
speciality with him, and he says
he has never seen such a virulent
tree and fruit disease as the canker
with the possible exception of pear
blight The situation Is such as to
demand the ready, active and intel
ligent cooperation of every one in
terested directly or indirectly in the
citrus fruit industry of this State.
county to stamp the disease out in
the beginning, If any is found. So
far, he says, no canker has been re-
ported in Orange county. The State
hasn't funds enough to undertake
to pay all the expense of the pro-
and will have to look for co-opera-
tion from the several counties The
kind of inspection which is being
carried on is extremely tedious, re-
quiring much time and expense, and
must be done by experienced men.
An inspection Of Brevard county has
just been completed, requiring the
entire time of large corps of in
spectors for three months.
An alarming phase of the situa-
ton is that a certain nursery which
has sold stock all through Orange
county and number of other coun-
ties was recently discovered to have
the canker in the stock. Mr.. Ten
ny says there is no way to tell if
the stock which has been distribut-
ed by this and other nurseries has
been infected except to make an in
spection of every tree that has been
set out during the past three years.
A popularity Of the disease is that
it does not always show up readily
even after infection. This is proved
by the fact that trees which were
passed by the inspectors three or
four months ago as being free. have

BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR PEN.
sAC0LA AVIATION STATION

Pensacola, July Assurances
that nothing except most urgent
necessity would cause the depart
ment to delay in any way the work
Of advancement of the aviation
corps" have been received by SEN
ator Duncan U. Fletcher from Sec
retary of the Navy Josephus DAN
iels.
The letter of Secretary Daniels
was written in reply to one from
Senator Fletcher asking about the
coming of the cruiser North Caro-
lima to the aeronautic station here.
Secretary Daniels letter states
that the North Carolina will be sent
here "if possible" and the cruiser
is expected to reach here some time
this month. The remainder OF the
letter relating to the development
of the aviation corps is borne out
by recent announcements in connec-
tion with the flying school work
here, including the building Of a
100000 shed for the diragibles that
will be sent here on completion next
spring.
A new class of student aviators is
expected at the school in a few
days A flight was made this
week in the largest machine at the
station, tailless Dunne-Burgess
biplane that brought crowds of
Pensacola Ipeople into the streets
to watch the big machine maneuv-
ering in the rain.
Secretary Daniels letter is further
confirmation of the statement that
the United States expects to build
up its flying service to its proper
point, and that Pensacola will be
the place where the money of the
Naval Department will be spent.

THREE BIG LEAGUE TEAMS !.
WANT TO TRAIN IN MIAMI

Miami, July THE arrival Of
Mike Finn, of Little Rock, from
Detroit, yesterday. is expected to
strengthen the Tiger camp in Mi
ami against the followers of the
White SoX. Finn is Tiger scout
who has been sent here by President
Navin to look over the general sit

quire regarding hotel accommoda-

Since it became known that let
ters were received from both Presi-
dent Commisky of the White Sox
and President Navin Of the Tigers
the city has been divided into two
camps, one favoring the Chicago and
the other the Detroit team, a situa-
tion to which considerable interest
has been added by the fact that the
White Sox and Tigers are now bat
tling on the Detroit field in "a series
of six games. Each team has won

Both of the managers of the lead
ers of the major league teams in
quired concerning the proposition
the Chamber of Commerce would be
willing to make, showing their in
terest in the possibility of Miami as
a spring training ground should
suitable arrangements be made and
other conditions be found favorable.
There Is little reason to believe
that the Detroit representative will
find fault with the climate, hotel
accommodations or advantages Of
Miami as spring training camp,
as it is believed that the question
as to whether the Tigers will train
in Miami next spring is one OF a
bonus.
In addition to the Chicago and
Detroit clubs, the ST. Louis Browns
are also interested in Miami as a
training camp, President HEDGES
having recently come to Miami ex-
pressly to go over the Chamber Of
Commences proposition to him, and
to investigate the advantages this
