A further saving, not included III
the above, was made through trans.
porting enroute to Fort Mcdowell,
California, thirty recruits from Fort
Sam Houston to Galveston. The
shipment by motor convoy Of 10000
pounds of freight as cargo for the
transport effected a further saving.
Both conveys were made without UNI
usual difficulties and the personnel
reached Fort Sam Houston in excel
lent spirits. The completion of the
movement in an entirely satisfactory
manner, reflects most creditably up
on the commissioned and enlisted
personnel who were identified with
the conveys.
AS a continl ton Of the movement
149 recruits assigned to the Fourth
Cavalry, Fort Mcintosh, Texas,
were transported to that station
from Fort Sam Houston by truck,
the opportunity being taken to use
cargo space available on the one-way
trip for shipment of excess supplies
from Fort Mcintosh to-F'ort sam
Houston, with a material saving over
cost by rail transportation.

Commissioner Of Agriculture George
B. Terrell Is doing everything he can

the question Of protection Of citrus
here from canker in shipments from
other states will be satisfactorily set
tied" said County Judge Oscar c..
Dancy.
Judge Dancy has just returned from
Austin, where and Judge A. w. Cam
eron Of Hidalgo county conferred with
Commissioner Terrell in connection
with the protection Of citrus in the
Valley.
A suggestion that Florida shippers be
required to furnish $4,000 bond before
being allowed to ship into the Valley
was favored by Commissioner Terrell
The Cameron and Hidalgo county
judges had only one suggested change
to recommend in the rulings Of Com
missioner Terrell This was that the
venue Of the bond furnished be in the
county where shipment is delivered.
This suggestion was approved by
Commissioner Terrell when it was
pointed out by Judge Dancy that the
person receiving the shipment in many
cases could not secure damages if he
had to file and prosecute a suit in some
other <state or some other section OF
this state.
Il believe if the protective measures
Of Commissioner Terrell are upheld
that the Valley will secure ample pro.
lection" Judge Dancy said. An opinion
from the attorney generals office on
the legality Of the proposed regula-
tions Of shipments into the Valley Is
expected in short time.
