Among the many interesting acts
passed by the lsst legislature IS the
one relating TO the quarantine against
diseased seeds or nursery stock Il
was introduced by Senator Murphy
The act is ono that adds greatly TO
the powers Of the board Of agriculture
and gives very considerable protection
to the farmers. II carefully adminls-
tered Perhaps a comprehensive view
q the sitaation can not more readily
be obtained than by merely reciting
its title which Is IAN act relating to
insects and diseases. which are in
furious to growing crops, nursery
stock fruit or shade trees. bushes,
shrubbery and vines grains, fruits and
vegetables. providing for the establish
ment and maintenance Of quarantine
regElat ions for the purpose Of prevent
ing the introduction and dissemination
If the same; for the ispection Of
nurseries and the regulation Of nursery
agents; prescribing penalties for the
violation Of such provisions and fer
other purposes"
The quarantine feature is an inter
esting field by which the board Of ag.
ricnlture may establish quarantine
lines at their discretion against any in
fected district and aid considerably in
preventing the spread Of any pests or
diseased germs.
All nurseries are subjected to in
spection once each year by compe-
tent entomologist to be selected by
the board and If any pests are discov.
cred the nurseryman is compelled TO
dlslnfect his stock before he is per-
mitted TO sell. Foreign nursery stock
must either be accompanied by a GER
tifcate from the state inspector of the
state from which it comes or be ex-
am'ped by territorial inspector.
The people have been careless and
negligent in this respect and much loss
has resulted. The careful study Of
the enemies Of plant life has done
much and will do more to exterminate
pests The loss Of vast quantities Of
fruit and cereals from the various
pests had heretofore been regarded
very much in the light Of inevitable
natural events, but now by careful
study very effective remedies have
been found for many Of them and in
( teresting investigations are proceeding
as to others. The farmer and the fruit
grower are by no means so helpless
as heretofore.
This act was aimed very largely at
the boil weevil and many hopes are en-.
tertained that the broad may adopt
measures that viii very materially re-
tard its destructive northward march

NEW YORK, April 27.-The execu-

paper by LIE Grand Powers OF the CEN
suS bureau at Washington.
twenty-five states were represented
In the special committee appointed by
the league to consider what changes
IN methods and taxation are necessary
and desirable in the constitution and
laws OF the various states. The report
or the committee. which was presented
says that such conditions have been
round as to make general criticism I'M
desirable If not impracticable In some
or the states ii has been found that
all or a large part of the states revenue
Is derived from special taxes of vari-
Gus kinds imposed by widely varying
systems. The committee is convinced
that any plan for raising state revenue
would be unsatisfactory unless il was
elastic, so that revenue would be adj
Justed to expenditure. The Real Cause
or Municipal Corruption was the title
or a paper by DR.. John B. Roberts Of
Philadelphia
In response to DR.. Roberts sugges-
ton that -he bribegiver and not the
Drloetaker be prosecuted, II. GaylOr
Wiltshire said that he did not think that
either should be prosecuted. The speak
er said that until municipal ownership
was a fact Ii would be necessary to

one on Municipal Thrift in European
and American Cities" by John Martin,
