San Benito Schools
Show 1891 Increase
fBy staff Correkpondentl

SAN BENITO. Sept. l0.-Enroll-
ment in the San Benito schools the
first three days OF the new term
was just l59 less than 1t was at the
end Of the first month last session.
according to Supt, T. J. zoe, indica-
ting that final attendance would
well exceed that OF last year.
A total Of l,644 was shown 10 &c
enrolled as compared with 1872 at
the end of the first month last ses-
sion. The high school showed an
enrolment of l89. a slight .ecline.
Landrum ward school 500. exactly
the same. junior high 292. an in
crease, Fred Booth school 613, q good
i~ncrease. and colored 30. Q slight in
crease.
Due 10 the fact that many Latin
Americans have reported and others
have moved away 1t would not have
been surprising had the attendance
at Fred Booth school declined uut
instead II increased, Mr.. Voc SAID.
That indicates two things, he thinks,
One Is that these families which
moved away were OF the transient
type whose children rarely attend
school an the other is that more
resident families are sending their
children to school. They are start
ing their children from the Begin
ming. Much equipment has been pre-
vided for the Mexican school.

I.
The action followed close on the
heels Of an announcement late yes
terday from Washington that quar-
antine regulations had been modi-
fled to permit opening Of the ship
ping season 20 days earlier.
Season Explained
The resolution, introduced at the
meeting by J. N. Dyer Of Pharr,
was passed after j. NJ. Del Curto
and w. A. Canon OF the state de-
partment OF agriculture had ex-
planned to growers that new regula-
lions would be Enacted to ecu

fruit shipments. He agreed that
green fruit shipping would serious
ly hurt the Valleys citrus market
bt- assured growers and shippers
present tina. the department would
do everything IN its power TO pre-
vent such shipments The juice
content tests, Del Curto said, prob
ably would be similar TO that now
effective in Florida

vious to the meeting that fears OF
Valley growers that modified sea-
sons would flood the Texas market
with green fruit were grounc.ess.

ernment's approval OF modified
shipping season regulations. Lee A.
Strong, chief of the plant quaran-
tine and control administration,
said:

This action Is taken on the
presentation of evidence to the de-
partment that the termination OF
the host free period Is desirable
from the standpoint Of Mexican
fruit worm control and that 1t does
not involve increase Of risk to pro-
pagating that insect. Citrus, which
Is authorized shipment, Is ripenng
and prompt harvesting and ship
ment OF fruit as II ripens during
the remainder OF September will be
TO the advantage Of the eradication
program"
Canon said his men are ready to
begin testing fruit Immediately.
Shippers and growers favoring early
shipments declare hat sale OF early
Florida fruit on the Texas mar
ket will be greatly decreased by the
new season modification.
