assure early movement of the crop.
Under no consideration should the
major part Of the crop be left on the
trees after January. If 1t can be
avoided. I believe every interest Of
the Valley should cooperate in an
effort to market the crop early. and
to make the final cleanup in Feb
ruary very thorough"
Ask Matamoros' Cooperation
DR.. Marlatt also suggested that an
effort be made to secure co-opera-
ton or dealers at Matamoros, Rey-
nosa. Camargo and other points on
the Mexican side of the Rio Grande
to hold down to the minimum the
shipment OF fruit to those points
from the Mexican interior
1t IS very apparent that the Mex
lean fruit fly will be brought to
those points in fruit from the in
tested districts OF the interior. !
understand that the border Is well
guarded and that there IS little
smuggling of fruit. However, the fly
after emerging may be carried
across the river BY other means. II
It would be possible to reduce or
eliminate shipments of fruit from
the Mexican interior to the Mexican
border points during the Valleys
shipping season. I am confident II
would materially reduce the menace
Of infestation."
Cold Storage Plants
The head Of the quarantine bu-
reau also advocated establishment
Of cold storage plants to handle
such fruit as NAV remain after
March /. This fruit could be main
tanned at a temperature Of IS de-
grees and SHIPPED out under refriger-
alton. Most of IL. however. would
! come into competition with the late
fruit Of Florida.
Mr.. Marlatt commended the CO.
operation extended by Valley grow
ers in the effort TO control the Mex
ican fruit fly. stating that If the
Valley had not evidenced a determi-
nation to cooperate to the fullest
extent IL would have been necessary
to have applied more drastic regula.

ton opened steady at 2 points high
err to 6 points lower compared with
Saturday and sold down TO 10 TO ID
points under the previous final
under renewed liquidation and sell
ing generally favorable weather was
held responsible for the selling. The
decline carried July down to 1880
and December to 1898. Prospects
for showers seemed to stimulate
covering and some buying through
commission houses. but the mar
ket was generally inactive and the
undertone was easy.
The decline carried prices II to
10 points below the previous closing
levels. but was followed by a reac-
ton OF 10 to Is points. However.
selling seemed to increase on small
advances and the market was sub
iect to quick reactions. The fore
cast for colder weather in the south
west and probable frost in Okla
homa. with showers and thunder
storms over the central and eastern
belts. was apparently responsible for
considerable covering. but recent
buyers sold on advances. AT mid
day July was selling around 1890
and December at 1900 or about II to
Il points net lower.
Futures closed steady. 26135
