vestigation to determine the number

who is In the Valley today.
Terrell arrived yesterday with ].
M. Del Curgo, state entomologist,
j. s. Woodward. chief nursery in
spector, and T.. A. Seymour, chief,
Of the bureau Of markets.
Del Curto Is in charge OF the

I forcement Of the work IN the VAL
ley by j. G. Powell, who Is In
charge here.
Seymour, who is director OF the

Longino expects soon to start the

Mr.. Terrell expressed the hope
that the Valley will be able to
furnish as many citrus trees as
possible to these two other citrus
growing sections. whose supply OF
trees from Florida has been cut
off on account of an embargo.
Our greatest desire is to keep
the state free from the Mediter-
ranean fruit fly, and we are en-
forcing a quarantine against the
shipment Of all fruit. nursery and
floral stock from Florida" he said.
The Winter Garden district and
the Laredo section would like to
have citrus nursery stock from
Florida, but 1t is too dangerous
to let that stock come into the
state.
Il want the Valley nursery men TO
let them have all the trees they
need for planting the coming sea-
son, and to sell them at the low
est prices they have ever been sold
in the Valley.
Il hope we will not have to re-
tard the development Of any Sec
ton for the proper protection OF
the entire state"

Representatives of 80 banks OF
the Valley are expected to attend

Bankers. shippers and growers
feel that there is no logical reason

be SO low" one banker said. with
Florida fruit barred from the South
on account of the quarantine, and
California shipping very little. the
Valley fruit should bring a good
price"
The bankers viii attempt TO
work out some course of action,
probably involving the withdrawal
OF support from persons or concerns
who will not cooperate in the move
to raise citrus prices.
Clinton 8. Fraser of the First Nat
ional Bank of Edinburg sent out
