GAINESVILLE, Fla. Dec. 2l.-Re-
ports received by the \State Plant

stimulation of interest in the planting
Of Satsuna oranges throughout north

are that contemplated paintings have
created a demand for Satsuma nurs-
cry. stock in excess of the supply
available in Florida nurseries. This
has caused a rather acute situation,
for on account of the danger of in
Producing into the state serious in
sect pests and plant diseases at
lacking citrus the State Plant Board
has had in effect a quarantine proi
hibiting shipment into this state OF
citrus nursery stock. a number of
planters who have been inconVen-
fenced by this rule have appealed to
the Plant Board to repeal or amend
its rule so that Satsuma trees may
be secured in Alabama, Mississippi
and elsewhere. In order that this
situation may be thoroughly can
vassed the Plant Board will hold q
public hearing at its office in the
State Capitol, Tallahassee, at ten
o'clock A. NJ. January s, 1928. The
formal call for the hearing is as fol-
lows:
"Gainesville, Florida,

THE State Plant Board has infor-
nation that there exist in other
states certain serious insect pests
and plant diseases (notab,y citrus

scale) attacking citrus and other trees
and the entry Of which into or the
dissemination within the state should
be prevented.
Wherefore notice is hereby given
that public hearing will be held at
