A. Brock, county horticultural commissioner, who now is investigating the matter. Brock said today that $1,000,000 loss was suffered in 1921 from scale and fumigation together and $600,000 from the former alce. He is urging growers to use their efforts toward aiding in the passage of Senator Arbuckle's measure for the employment of an expert by the State to investigate and obtain in the Orient additional predatory parasites on red and purple scale. Several other counties suffer from red scale and to alces extent from purpose scale. Orange-co appears to be the worst sufferer from purpose scale. Sixty-two thousand dollars would be transferred from the State Dept. of Agr. to the College of Agr. for this purpose, if pending measures are made. The Orange-co Pest Control Ass'n, Crook hopes, will aid in the fight for the additional protection. China and Japan have been suggested as the sources from which to obtain the parasites. MRS. M.
