PORTO RICO DECISION
Federal Judge Towsend Says
That Island
is A FOREIGN COUNTRY
So Far, as the Constitution Is
Concerned.

New York. June 14--Judge William K.
Townsend, in the United States district
court ii the Southern district of New
York, today handed down an opinion in
the case CT John H. Goetz & Co. versus
The United Siets2. IN which he declared
the treaty OF Paris valid and that the
status the people of Porto Rico is that
of inhabitants of a foreign country as
regards the constitution of the United
States and within the meaning of the tar
if acts. Judge Townsend held that Porto
Rico is part Of the United States so far
as countries are concerned, but so far as
the constitution of this country is con-
eerned, is a foreign country and that the
United States can govern IL without sub
jecting it to the burden of national tax
alton and that the status of the inhab-
itants will remain unchanged until con-
gress shall determine it.
The decision of Judge Townsend afirms
the decision of the board Of appraisers
assessing a duty of So cents per pound on
100 bales of leaf of filler tobacco. The
importers protested, claiming that the
merchandise was not subject TO duty, be-
cause Porto Rico was not a foreign coun-
try, and because. therefore. the ''impo-
sition of duties on goods brought from
points within the territory of the United
States into a port of the United States
is not lawful and valid under the consti-
tuition.
Judge Townsend said: Before the war
with Spain, Porto Rico was a foreign
country when it was occupied by the
military forces of the United States. The
conquest of Porto Rico under authority
of the executive made it ours by military
title But the presidents conquests do
not enlarge the boundaries of this union,
nor extend the operation of our institu-
tons and laws beyond the limits before
assigned to them by the legislative pow
er. Our boundaries could not be regulated
by the varying incidents of war and be
enlarged or diminished as the armies en-
either side advanced or retreated. In
this sense, therefore. our constitutional
boundaries do not follow the flag"
Judge Townsend said this could only
be done by the treaty-making power or
legislative authority.

year and is ready 10 start into growth as
the leaves develop the following spring.
No opportunity for experiments on this
disease has occurred at this station, but
extensive work has been done by W. n
Scott in Georgia on the same disease
with the result that Bordeaux mixture
made as follows, has proven successful:
1. Dissolve six pounds of blue stone in
six gallons Of water in an earthen yes
sci.
.. Slack four pounds of fresh lime in
six gallons of water
Pour 2 slowly into / and add twenty
gallons of water. Mix thoroughly and
strain through coarse gunny-saeking into
a barrel. Reject the undissolved mater
iaI and add eighteen gallons Of water
and the mixture is ready FOR use. The
mixture will keep in this condition as
long as desired.
This should be applied to the trees with
spray pumps just before they come into
bloom. One application is usually suf-
ficient if made at the right time. In
orchards that have not thus been treated
the disease may be slightly checked oy-
spraying with the same mixture but
leaves that have once been curled can
never be restored TO usefulness linen
the best thing to do is to keep the tree
cultivated and in a vigorous condition so
that they will throw out a second set Of
leaves with which to mature the fruit of
the season.
Considerable inquiry has been received
at the experiment station this spring In
regard to a native grass that seems 10
be gaining foothold in the territory
There are two forms of 1t. One is called
the Texas blue grass and the other the
smooth Texas blue grass. They are much
like the Kentucky blue grass and are
very closely related botanically. They are
a little coarser than the Kentucky but In
forIn OF head closely resemble 1t. The
Texas blue grass has a growth like short
wool in the head among the grains while
the smooth Texas blue grass does not
have 1t. The taste is much Ike that Of
Kensucky blue grass. It seems to be rel
ished by all sorts of ting ami
mails. 1t appears first in a bunch or two
here and there but s0os spreads so as to
cover considerable area. It may be propa-
gated either by seeds or parts of the
plant, but seems to be spreading without
special attention. It promises to be one
of the best grasses for Oklahoma.
