In the past few weeks was summary
buried in the indefinitely postponed busi-
ness morgue OF the Petvorth Citizens
Association last night It was the gen
eral opinion Of the association that the
hest way 70 treat the bill was 10 ignore
it.
The bill came up for discussion late in
the evening and II was moved 20 refer II
to the education committee. This motion
was defeated and another member moved
10 postpone the consideration This mo-
ton was amended TO read postponed for

postponed Indefinitely with the under
standing that the forever" inference
would hold good.
After the association had expressed its
opinion Of the bill. President James told
measure to eXtol its qualities before the
fer, he said, because he thought mem
bers OF the association were capable OF
deciding their questions without oUtsids
assistance"
The association, IN answer 70 an inquiry
from the District Commissioners, declared
il would be inadvissble for the Comnis-
sioners TO condemn land at Kansas ave
nue. and Eighth street or at GeorFis ave-
nue. and Cpshur street in accordance
with their privilege OF spending &5, 900 for

association believed that since both Of

said Mr.. Stein, the tailor. at Eighth and
F streets. We have customers who would
be lost if they had to wear anything but
tailored to measure clothes-and tailored
to measure clothes may be had so reas-

any man should not enjoy the pleasure
of wearing clothes that are made for
him and fit him perfectly. We make
suits to order as low as sixteen dollars,

But when the fortunes of your own

NEW FRUIT QUARANTINE PLAN
 FUR CALIFORNIA AND ARIZONA

The California Commission Of Horti- culture on September 2l adopted quarantine order which prohibited the further importation into the state ot California of citrus fruits as well as citrus nursery stock from all Othoc states. This quarantine prevented shipments of Arizona oranges and grapefruit into Californit for several weeks but meantime State Entomolo- gist, A. w. Merrill, was in correspop- dence with the California authorities who, after a thorough consideration of the matter agreed to issue an order eX- empting Arizona from the provisions of the quarantine provided that Arizona amend it's citrus fruit quarantine in certain respects.
 Accordingly an amended citrus quar- antnc was drawn up by the state en-
 tomologist and submitted to the com mission of agriculture and horticulture 1 which adopted 1t at it's annual meeting at Phoenix on November l4.
 | This quarantine combines the provis-
 ions of two previous quarantine orders
 but is strengthened by making it ap- | ply to all states and foreign countries, excepting only citrus fruits from Cal ifornia and nursery stock and budwOod ! introduced for experimental purposes fby the state and national governments Previously. Arizona's s citrus fruit quar-
 antine affected only the Gulf Coast
 states although nursery stock was pro
 hibited from all outside sources. Cal
 lfornia previous to September 2l 1916 quarantined only against Florida grown citrus fruits although the citrus canker disease exists throughout the Gulf 1 Coast citrus region.
 1 On Friday State Entomologist Nor Till received a telegram from Sacra mento advising that in accorddncc with 1 the understanding arrived at tho Cal | fornia Commissioner Of Horticulture i had drawn up an order admitting Ari-
 zona citrus fruits and that this o-de-
 would be signed and made effective as
