Rules crownhart is Commissioner.
Charles r. Crownhart, whose term
as a member of the Wisconsin state
industrial commission was generally
believed to have expired at midnight
on June 30. last. is de facto a member
of the Industrial commission, and has
authority to perform the duties Of that
Office until his successor has been ap-
pointed by Governor Philip and APP
pointment confirmed by the senate.
Attorney General w. c. owen said.
While he had not yet given his rul-
ing on the question in WI ing. he had
told CrOwnhart he was de facto COM
missioner. and could lawfully perform
the duties Of his Office until his sue
cessor was named and confirmed, the
attorney general said.
1t had been generally understood by
members of the legislature and others
that Mr. Crownhart was out of Office,
and the ruling of the attorney general
will prove a surprise Attorneys in
the legislature have construed chapter
ass, laws of 1911, creating the indus
trial commission and prescribing terms
of Office of commissioners as proyid-
ing that the terms Of commissioners
actually end on the expiration of the
period for which they are appointed.
Mr.. Crownhart's certificate of appoint
ment read for term ending June 80.
1915, and the legislature four years
ago confirmed the appointment for
that term.
In view Of efforts being made to in
duce Governor Philip to reappoint

The question as TO the right Of Mr..
Crownhart to perform his duties as a

Crop Damage Estimates at $4,000

Crop Damage Estimated at $4,000, 900.
The passage OF the agricultural bill
creating the Office Of state entomolo-
gist indicates a growing realization Of
the tremendous damage done by in
sects and fungi which could well be
prevented IL there we're a general
knowledge as to the best remedy
A damage of s25, 0O0.t 90 is done an
nually in the state by thc ravages OF
insects. This injury extends not only
to farm crops, fruits and stored prod
ucts. but to wooden goods and cloth
ing. furs, feathers, shade and ornamen-
tai trees and shrubs The damage
done by the insects such as flies and
mosquitoes 70 cows and horses also
amounts to a huge sum.
A majority of the states have an
official entomologist such as the bill
passed by the senate would create.
The duties Of this official consist OF
aiding In tie control and Suppression
Of destructive insect pests and fungi.
Information is conveyed to the public
through the medium of the public
press and messages. The Office OF
state inspector OF nurseries and or
chards would be absorbed by the new
commissioner.
The bill is in harmony with steps
taken by the National Nurserymen' 5
association acting in cooperation with
