BRYAN ISSUES STATEMENT
Denies That Ultimatum Was Sent to

Denies That UItimatum Was Sent to
Huerta.
Washington, Nov. 5.-Secretary
Bryan gave out a statement denying
that any ultimatum had been sent to.
President Huerta. He said:
No ultimatum has been sent to
Mexico and it is unfortunate that the
press should give credence to such q
report. The harm done by specula-
ton or even inaccuracies with regard
to domestic questions is limited be-
cause the people are acquainted with
the subject and can make allowances,
but as statements with regard to in
ternational matters may lead to Sc
rious consequences I feel justified in
making the above denial"

STANDARDIZATION IF
 NURSERY INSPECTION
State 6ntomologist A. w. Morriii Named Chairman of Important
 Committee.

State Entomologist \ w Morrill, has 5Gst received from the presiden: of :he American Association of Eco homie EntomOlogists notice of his appointment as chairman of the com mlttee On standardization of nursery inspection certificates. State EntO- moloSlSt sherman, of North Caro- ma and State EntomolOgist Wash burn Of Minnesota, are the two other members of this committee. The as sociatio0 of Economic .EntomOloeists is composed of the official state and government entomologists of the United States and Canada and holds meetings in affiliation with the American association for the advance ment of science.
 Dr. Morrill, attended the last meet Ing Aei" at Cleveland, Ohio, early in January and presented two papers before the association. One of these concerned the matter of improving the system of nursery inspections particularly along the line of secur- Ing uniform system among the states so that certificates might mean exactly what they say and have as near as practicable an equal value. It was urged that this would tend to reduce the percentage of state to state shipments containing dis eaSed and insect infested stock.
 Experience in Arizona has shown that normally about eight percent of plant shipments accompanied by cer- tficates from the place of origin are actually infested with insect pests, although in this state by establiSh- ing q high standard and informing outside shippers concerning the re- quirementS this percentage has been reduced one half in three years work in inspecting incoming shipments. The need of improvements in the method of nursery inspection and certificatiOn was pointed out and specific changes were recommended. Acting upon these recommendations Il was voted that q committee be appointed to investigate the matter and the committee on standardization mentioned above is the result of this action.

 pr. W. F.. ternald, superintendent of the Massachusetts School for Feeble Minded aU WaVerly has lately re- marked how much more mental de- veiOpment such child gains from the improvised playthings to be found in his mothers kitchen than a rich son can extract from the ready
 made toys of q We<hN nursery. A few blocks Df wood and pieces of different colored cloth will entertain and instruct an unspoiled child quite as long and Mcll-naY. longer and bctter-than a tOyshop.

 The money wasted annually for toys that children do not need or really want would probably pay the expenses of all the kinderSartens Tn the world This is to be considered in thinking of the cost of living. We might go farther. We are told we must become as little children to be saved spiritually. and nobody can observe the life of child seriously and doubt the truth of the saving. Possibly this may have an economic annIication also. For were we as little children in the simplicity of the posessions that give us satisfaction manv would be satisfied with legs who now require automobiles; we might be singing ourselves instead or paying big prices to hear others sing: we should eat simple bread and milk and wear anything that felt comfortable and suited our taste, not the fasion plates land scapes would make life more than paintings and men more than books. That would make life so simple most anvbodv could afford to live.
