agriculture today announced that it
would hold hearings here May Is on
proposed new quarantines against tho

measures are under contemplation
one to limit the entry of foreign lint

prohibiting shipment of foreign lint
cotton from Northern States to the

tions of lint cotton from any foreign
country.
The inconvenience these measures
would cause mill owners. department

that would be brought about should
the pest establish itself in the South.

1913, owing to bad weather They
had looked forward to 1914 as likely
to make up all deficits; the weather
from the beginning Of the summer
was excellent and the rush of tourists
in June and early July was unprece-
denied.
The few tourists who remained
after the war cloud appeared were
frightened away by the panic among
the Swiss bankers. which caused the
refusal of all letters of credit and
even foreign money.
At present, many Of the big hotels
are closed. and the number of guests
in those which remain open is almost
negligible. Nor is there much like
1ihood Of any improvement in condi-
tiOns in time for the winter sports
season.
AS a matter of fact, living condi-
tons in Switzerland have changed
very little. There is 6 shortage of
coal and petrol but food prices have
probably increased not much more
than ten per cent
