JSIIB.JJMU WATCH OUR PINES FOR BAD-INSECTS Los Angeles Inspectors Watching For Bugs From Hawaii The Los Angeles Examiner of Jan uary 27 says: Fearing that the asphldiaats b re mains, a species of Insect pest which has made its appearunce In Los An geles In shipments of pineapples from Honolulu, might attack South ern California fruit trees, Inspectors at the Los Angeles market are keep ing a sharp watch for It. Already It has been necessary to destroy one' small shipment of pine nppcs, as the pest wus found on It In considerable numbers. The bug attaches Itself ta the outside of tho pineapple. It does not pierce the thick skin, and therefore the edible qualities of the fruit are not af fected. It is only through fear that the Southern California fruit Industries might be affected that the Inspectors already are righting against Its ap pearance here. They say that It the fruit woro properly fumigated before It leaves Honolulu there could be no danger here. Each Insect Is exceedingly smalt and is white and brown, the former being the color on top nnd the latter beneath. Bulletin Business Office Phone 256.
