Here is recognition of a kind not so common today
it should be, Of very important fact. The senator
had legal right to say what he intended to say, what
might be thought to the fairness good taste
of his performance.
Other speakers on other topics interfered with

1t was never intended by the trainers of the fed

These facts were brought out IN

Given Cooperation
However. We have met with the

Whereas the regulations required

that rs per cent Of the growers

work is completed the second stage
Of the prevention work will have

Many Tags Used
Between September is and March
I every bearing orchard was inspect

many were inspected more often
than that, Mr.. Hoidale said.
During the shipping season over
500, COO tags were used, one TO every
crate whether il was full. one-half,
%ore-fourth or less. Where grape
fruit or were shipped in
mixed crates a tag was placed on
such crates for each fruit, which
means that the total number Of tags
used does not show an exact report
Of the amount shipped.
