An emergency appropriation of

which wrfB clear the Valley pota-

The states which placed the quar-
antine m effect claimed that Texas
potatoes which of course mrigcwd
Valley potatoes were infected with
the tuber moth. This moth n as
dangerous to potatoes as the More-
los. fruit fly is to citrus. Mr Lath-
am explained The survey by ex-
perts will prove beyond a doubt
that Valley potatoes are not infect-
ed
The only tuber moth found in
Texas was found near Wharton
easily 30b miles away about live
years ago and then only a lew were
discovered. ' Mr. Latham concluded.
The Rio Grande Valiev Potato
Grower? Association gets full credit
for securing the appropriation and
giving the Valley a clean tail of
health it was pointed out tocay.
