infection of all imported cotton hos
Just gone into effect, upor the COM
pletion of the plants made necessary
to an enforcement of the requirement
at Boston and San Francisco.
THE primary purpose of the regu-
latton," says a statement issued by
the office of Information Of the De
partment. rs to protect American
cotton growers from the pink boil
worm, one of the worst cotton pests
in Egypt. The damage done by this
insect Is shown by the following ex-
tract from q circular which was H.
sued In Alexandria, Egypt, by a COM
pany engaged In handling Egyptian
cotton:
THE 1915 cotton crop has, like it,
predecessors, paid Il heavy tribute to
the pink boil worm attacks. AS was
to have been foreseen from the great
numbers of hollis affected since the
month of August the damage suf-
fered by the cultivatcrs all over
Lower Egypt has been very heavy.
Taking the average OF the cases that
have come under our observation, we
estimate the general damage at thirty
to thirty-five per cent This insect
has not spread over Upper Egypt to
any great extent 80 far. although the
common boil worm has several times
in the past caused damage in the Up
per Egypt cotton plantations.
I'VE do not think 1t an exaggera-
ton to say, that through the pres
ence of the pink boil worm. Lower
Egypt cotton farming IL passing
through a most difficult period, which
has become more acute each year and
may develop into serious crisis. We
are very far from tho happy years
when a yield of seven cantars per
acre was not difficult to obtain on
good land. Nowadays four cantars
are considered a good outtarn by the
cultivators even OF the good districts
of Menoufieh."
For about year now the Federal
Horticultural Board has requiIe ed all
rooms In which foreign cottons were
stored to be screened. all waste con-
tanning seed was burned. and has In
sisted upon other similar precau-
lions. The new requirement or fum-
igation Ia regarded as one Of the
most important OF these means OF
protecting the cotton industry. In
vestigation has shown that there are
few seeds in all imported cotton
and any of these seeds may contain
the pest. Its establishment in this
country is regarded as menace that
must be guarded against In every
possible way.
The importation OF living canes OF
sugar cane, or cutting, or parts
thereof from Hawaii and Porto Rico,
and from Cuba and alt other foreign
countries, regardless Of the use for
which they may be intended, Is also
prohibited
This prohibition applies to canes
sent In for analysis or exhibition. an
well as those intended for propaga-
ton. and will be strictly enforced,
as there are a number Of serious in
sect and fungous enemies OF sugar
cane prevalent abroad which should
be kept out Of the United States.

HAIsELDEN DROPPED
BY CHICAGO DOCTORS

Chicago, March 14.--Dr. Harry J.
Haiseiden was dropped by the Chi
cago Medical Society at its meeting
in the Hotel Sherman tonight. The
charges against Dr. Haiselden grew
out of the baby Bollinger case. The
surgeon, In charge of the German
American Hospital. refused to operate
on the baby to try to save Its life on
the ground the infant was defective
and 1t would be better for the human
race to let II die.
The Chicago Medical Society charged
that he passed judgment on a human
life where he had no authority. and
also that he was unethical In writing
book on the Bollinger baby's case.
His signed articles on the case were
considered unethical in that they were
personal advertising.

Light on the Torrens Law.

The Nebraska Legislative Reference Bureau
performs real public service in printing and cir
culating a bulletin dealing with the Torrens land
transfer law enacted by the last legislature. The
bulletin carries much useful information on sub
ject Of prime importance to land owners, showing
the growth Of the Torrens system in other states,
court rulings on the law and comparison Of the
essential features Of the Nebraska law with similar
laws in operation in twelve states.
The Torrens system Of land transfer seeks
to abolish the present wasteful and costly methods
Of title record and to substitute simple certih-
cate Of ownership, Of which public record is
kept. Every other form Of property may be dis
posed Of at will, but change Of ownership Of
land Is hedged about by expensive legal details
and bulky records which draw the sanctity Of
usage from the inventive skill Of some European
land grabber. II Is no easy task to make breach
in the defenses Of system which affords an ever
growing source Of revenue to its benehciaries.
The profitable character Of the older system
explains why the simpler method Of title trans
fer does not speed up and justify the claims Of its
supporters. The Nebraska law hobbies the move
ment at the start by requiring petition Of 10
per cent Of the freehoiders Of any county before
the county can install the system. This, in ITSELF
Is serious handicap. Nevertheless start has
been made in Seward county and Dawson and
Lancaster counties are moving In the same direc-
ton. For Douglas county the chief mart and
mint Of the title business the 10 per cent require
ment practically makes the law dead letter,
