Claim Made That State Lacks
 Jurisdiction In Case

The steamer was seized on a court order last Wednesday, following a liquor raid by the county sheriff's forces.
 Dismissal of the proceedings against the freighter will be asked on the ground that the state lacks jurisdiction. It was also said that contest will be made of any federal government pro- ceedings against the vessel. The peti- tion to the United States court would contend that no acts for which the steamship could be held responsible had been committed in violation of the na- tional prohibition law, it was said.
 The Vallescura has gained a reputa- tion as a hard luck" ship in which it has figured. The master of the vessel, Capt. Angelo Ciarlo, died at a hospital last Sunday from pistol shot wounds alleged to have been inflicted by Liverani Ettore, a member of his crew on board the ship the day be- fore. Ettore, charged with firing the shots was arrested and has waived ex- animation to the grand jury. He is held in jail without bond.

NUMEROUS PESTS i
 LIVE ON SATSUMA'
Dr. Dozier Complies Bull letin Giving Advice
 To Growers
By DAVID HOLT.

MOBILE, Ala, Sept. 19.-A catalog of the insects and fungi that attack the Satsuma orange would leave one in doubt whether tree could survive to bear fruit. This doubt is removed by the bulletin, Insect Pests and Diseases of the Satsuma Orange" by Herbert L.. Dozier, Ph. D., eutomologist of the Gulf Coast Citrus exchange. This work, compiled as the result of a year among the citrus orchards of the gulf coast, tells not only of the pests but their enemies; not only of the diseases, but also their remedy. It tells of the de- stroying fungus and of the insect that destroys that fungus. Altogether, it is a most valuable contribution to the science of citrus growing in this coun- try, and is written in most interesting style, easily understood by the non scientific mind.
 Purple scale, worst enemy to coast Satsumas, is described and its life history laid bare. It is interesting to read that the twice stabbed lady beetle Is the deadly enemy to purple scale and that Aspidiotiphagus Citrinus, wasp-like, lemon-colored fly, is also present in this region and does great deal of good in aiding with the con- trol of the purple scale. Emulsions. tha t artificially control the scale and meth- ods of applying the various sprays for this purpose are given. And so on through the long list of pests and dis cases, their natural enemies and mans devices for keeping the foes of tree and fruit under .subjection.
 There is an array of scale enemies and scale friends and these are both described and pictured by Dr. Dozier, so that the citrus grower can distin- guish between those that are helpful and those that are hurtful. A plate in colors shows the beneficial fungi at lacking white flies. It has deadly look and might easily be mistaken for foe, when in reality it is friend and helper.
