INSECTS As
IMPORTS ARE
UNDESIRABLE
Aids Nature Studybut Law Pro-
nibits Introduction and Dis
Cretion is Limited.

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 15-
The recent seizure By the New York
customs auth critics of the village OF
Meadow ant which Mrs. G. w.
Morse wished to bring with her from
Europe is only an episode in the per-
petual war against undesirable immi-
grants, human, animal and vegetable.
AIRS. zMorse's village, like the one
which reached Philadelphia about
fortnight before, was probably a by
product Of the increased interest in
nature study by the United States
government not only discourages
such aids to amateur research but
absolutely prohibits them BY law
passed in 1905, the Importation OF
living insects into this country Is
forbidden and there are other laws
which regulate so strictly the impor-
tation of large animals that in many
cases no discretion is left to the au-
thorities.
Nevertheless tourists and amateur
scientists are continually endeavor!ng
to introduce additions to the flora
and fauna OF the Unitel States which
the United States is happy to be
without. 1t is estimated that fully
one-half Of the pests that: affi!ct tar-
mers and stock have been imported
from abroad, many of course by acct-
dent in the course OF commercial
shipments but some brought delfber-
ateIy by misguided enthusiasts or
thoughtlsss travellers.
FrenChman Wreaked Havoc.
The classic instance Of misguided
enthusiasm is the Introduction in
1869 of the destructive gypsy moth
by a scientist named Trouvelot
TroYelot, a Frenchman by birth, an
astronomer IN Harvard; unfortunate
ly ne was also an ardent entomolog-
fst who had devoted much OF his
leisure time to the consideration OF
the silk worm industry. in an evil
hour he conceived the idea of breed
ing a harder worm which might
withstand the diseases which were
then ravaging rearing establishments
in France, and in pursuit of this
purpose imported some gypsy moths
intending to cross them with some
of the native species found in the
United States. 1t so CHANGED, how
ever, that he left the window of MS
study in Medford, Mass, open one
day. When he returned a mass of
eggs laid by the gypsy visitors had
disappeared, apparently it had blown
out of the. open window. At this
point Trouvelot'ss experiments stop
ped. Their results did not. They
are still with US and have cost the
country millions of dollars. For
twenty years the gypsy moth at
tracted no attention. The people OF
Medford may have wondered at the
destruction of their trees, but the
damage remained local and the out
side world knew nothing OF it. In
1889, however, the pest suddenly be-
came prominent. Since that time
bitter warfare has been waged
against it, but the victory is not yet
won.

Antornohile is an AIlY.


Strange enough, the automobile
has proved an ally OF the moth. Not
only does 1t stir up currents of air
which scatter the fallen and infected
foliage, but it actually carries insects
many miles into districts which have
hitherto been immune. And on one
occasion some years ago there is ev-
ate attempt was made to spread the
pest Eggs said to have been found
in California were sent to the De-
partment Of Agriculture for examina-
tion and for time it seemed certain
that in some unaccountable way the
pest had travelled across the entire
continent. investigation revealed the
fact, however, that the man who for
warded the eggs had previously been
employed in fighting the moth in
Massachusetts. Upon the arrival Of
a scientist attached to the depart
ment. he left his home and remained
without address until the investiga-
tor had departed. There was no
further reports of the gypsy moth in
California.
In this case the probable motive
was a visionary scheme to profit in
some way from a government appro-
priation to stamp out the pesttlence.
But ignorance can do as much harm
as malice Travellers with the most
innocent intentions in the world de-
light in bringing back with them
souvenirs of their travels and Few
have any conception Of the ease
with which disease it spread among
plants and animals Because of It's
traffic with China, Japan and the
South Seas, San Francisco IN particu-
lar is a favorite port of entry for
exotic seeds, fruits and plants which
have attracted their attention in the
Orient and the tropics were not
ruthlessly taken from the incoming
tourists. In one instance, for exam
pie, some strange looking beans
were found to be swarming with
weevil. The individual from whom
this precious prize was taken may
have resnted the governments action
as a piece of petty interference win
a personal hobby, but the govern
ment saw in the beans not a hobby
but a very vital danger to the vegeta-
Bile gardens OF the country.
More enterprising travellers have
at various times attempted to bring
in as a curiosity the Australian n.y.
ing fox. Unknown in this country,
this overgroWn bat, which at It's
/ largest, measures more than I'VE feet
across the tips of its wings, Is one
of the greatest pests OF Australia. In
their camps in the dense scrub OF

uuently broken by their weight.
Their nightly raids in search of food
cover considerable distances and they
are especially partial to hgs, ba-
nanas, peaches and other soft fruit.
Various expedients have been tried
to protect the orchards but hitherto
these have proved more expensive
than successful. On one occasion
some hundred thousand foxes were
shot at an expense to the govern
ment OF New South Wales for powder
and shot OF thirty cents each. a
