MAY BURN CANKERED STOCK. 



Without Compensation to Owner. 



Affirmiu" a decree of a district court 

 enjoining a fruit grower from interfer- 

 ing with a state inspector in the work 

 of entering upon the grower's property 

 and destroying certain orange and other 

 citrus trees affected with citrus canker, 

 the Louisiana Supreme Court upholds 

 the validity of the statutes of Louisi- 

 ana, which authorize such condemna- 

 tion of property without compensation 

 to the owner. The higher court said: 



"It is shown that of the defendant's 

 grove of perhaps 2,200 trees, exclusive 

 of young trees in his nursery, something 

 like fifty-seven per cent were infected 

 with citrus canker when this case was 

 tried, and, notwithstanding the aver- 

 ment of the defendant's return that he 

 'has applied and is still applying to his 

 own trees approved methods to prevent 

 citrus canker,' he did not take the 

 stand to inform the trial court what 

 these nictliods were or whether they 

 ]irovcd to be worth trying; in fact, he 

 offered no evidence in support of either 

 the denials or the averments of his 

 return.
