QUEER METHODS
OF AFRICANS IN
SURGERY ASTOUND

(By Hester Donaldson Jentins, IN
World Outlook for February
In dangerous and infested Africa
the natives to live at all must learn
something of the human body and
certain remedies. And they have
done.
They know a great deal about herbs
and their curative properties. A case
is recorded of a black in Bechuana
land who was able to cure Boer wo
man when the English doctor had
given her up. She had boils and blood
poisoning and seemed in extremity.
One of the Beers native drivers re-
ceived permission to call in bush
doctor. The bushman sat silently
watching the patient for a time and
then trotted off over the veldt for
some distance gathering variety of
herbs as he went. Returning, he
boiled water over the fire, throwing
into the pot his collection of medi-
cines. When the infusion was ready
he gave the patient great bowls of it.
t.. drink and also bathed her sores in
the decoction. Within twenty-four
hours she was able to laugh at the
white doctor and thank the black.
Other tribes like the Ekoi practice
q simple surgery. One man who was
gored in the abdomen by an elephant
was nicely patched with calabash
placed inside to keep his intestfnes
in place. To be sure, you could see
the shape of the calabash forever af-
ter, but the patient entirely recovered,
The Akamba, also, are said to be
very skillful in surgical operation
and very knowing about the human
frame. They set broken legs. in a. very
sensible fashion, placing the patient
in a hollow in the earth, where the
leg is buried in heated loan while
his upper body is free. There he sits,
guarded by his companions from wild
animals, until the bone is knit.
Cupping and scarifying are COM
mon means of reducing Inflammation.
In fact, they are so much used that
many a patient is badly enfeebled
from the loss of blood.
Baths are appreciated in Africa as
a health measure. Kroo women battle
= themselves and their husbands and
children in hot water every day. Sick
people are sometimes wrapped in a
blanket and steamed over a bath with
herbs in it. They are then made to
take a cool walk and another bath,
quite according to the methods of
Battle Creek.
But the most surprising practice
that the Africans have worked out is
the so-called buying of smallpox
Somehow they have discovered the
principle of vaccination and the the
DRY that a light attack of smallpox
renders the patient immune from
worse attacks. The mother who
= breads the illness of her children
when she learns of a case in the
neighborhood, goes to the afflicted
hut and asks to buy the smallpox
She is given some virus for which
she pays with the gift of a handker-
chief. At home she scratches hel
child's arm and applies the virus ant
feels as relieved as an American
mother when it begins to take"

Jig horticulturists, agriculturists AMI
agree that we can pro-
pagate any plant in this country that
we now import. We would keep the
at home that now goes abroad
tive plants by these foreign pests. The
Ee deral Bureau of Entomology has
prepared a list of, 5000 insects alone
not to speak of the large number of
plant diseases, which has not yet been
compiled, that would be harmful to
our native plants, but which have not
We. reached here. Many of these are
sure to come if we continue to bring
in plants which are the natural car
1iers of these pests.
We are already spending more
money yearly, fighting imported in
sects and plant diseases, than the
value of all the plants imported and
the loss caused by these imported
plants is over one hundred times. the
value of those importations. Other
countries have legislated against i'm
ported plants but the United States
continues to be dumping ground for
these pests. Our system is haphazard,
endangers our resources, and is I'M
just to the producers of our food.
The Hession Fly, Alfalfa Weevil,
San Jose Scale, Cooling Moth, Citrus
Canker, Chestnut Blight, Pine Blister
Rust. Gypsy Moth, Browntail Moth
and Leopard Moth are only few of
the well-known insects and diseases
that are costing the country millions
each year. There are scores of grubs,
blights. wood and bark bores gnaWing
away at our resources.
There is only one way to avoid in
creasing this tremendous burden and
that is the prohibition of Importation
Of plant materials. Senate Bill 3344
now before Congress seeks to do this
and it should have the support OF
every producer of food stuffs. While
it will prohibit the wholesale impor-
tation of plants it does not prevent
Us from obtaining new plants for pro-
pagating purposes through the De-
partment of Agriculture.

INSECTS MORE DEADLY THAN
U-BOATS SAYS FORESTRY ASSN
IN ANNUAL REPORT TO DEPARTMENT

If it were announced that 500 food
laden ships valued at 100000 each
had been sunk by submarines, the
people would be appalled,. Especially
would that be true at this time OF
food shortage. But, the officials of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture tell us that conservatively
estimated s5OG,C00,OOO is the loss
caused yearly to our farm, orchard
and forest crops by imported insects,
yet we continue to import plants on
which these pests come into the coun-
try. This loss of $500, 100000 annual
ly is mostly food stuffs, which would
keep an army of nearly 1000, 900 men
continually supplied with provisions
These losses are so stupendous and
SO vital at this time that further i'm
portation of ornament plants should
cease at once, as a war measure, if
for no other reason.
According to a recent report of the
Federal Horticultural Board Of the
United States Department of Agricul.
ture, 1913 insects and 116 plant dis
eases which might prove harmful to
American plants were detected in that
year on imported plant materials by
Federal and State Inspectors. These
inspectors admit that it is impossible
to detect all of these insects and dis
eases and this accounts for the dis
ccvery every year of several new pests
established here.
The value of these imported plants
seldom exceeds $3,50O,OO in any one
year, yet we are told by certain i'm
porters that it would be a great hard
ship on the country if this importa-
ton were to be stopped. The facts
show that to continue such .importa-
ticn is hardship many times greater,
and all out of proportion to the gain.
Based on the growth and value OF
our nursery and Horticultural estab-
lishments as recorded by the census
of 1910 these establishments are
worth today, nearly $9O,000,0O0. II
would seem that these nurseries could
grow this comparatively small amount
of material that we import. Our lead

HOLLANDS PART
IN HELPING HUN
CAUSES DISPUTE

Amsterdam, Feb. 5.-The question
whether, and to what extent, Holland
is responsible for the continuation of
the war by her food supplies to Ger
many has caused a controversy in the
Dutch newspapers. c. J. K. van
AaLst, head of the Netherlands Over
sea Trust, in his recent open letter to
President Wilson, pleaded for the re-
moval of the American government
embargo on food shipments to Hol-
land; one of his arguments being that
the continuation of Hollands trade
with the Central Powers, while of vi
tai Importance to Holland itself, is of
small account, so far as aid and COM
fort to the Entente enemies is con-
cerned.
An article in the Amsterdam Tele-
gfaarf from Entente side-of Ameri-
can origin, it is hinted-replies to Mr..
van Aalst's arguments by showing
that, according to official Dutch sta
tistics for 1916, there were exported
from Holland to Germany of pota-
toes, potato flour, butter, eggs, rice,
cheese, margarine, sugar, fish, meat,
fruits, peas and beans 91S, $50 tons,
sufficient to feed 1000, 900 soldiers for
a year.
The same authority calculates that
in 1916 Holland imported from over
seas PSI tons of cereals, flour, CO.
Goa, rice and dried fruits and comes
to the conclusion that Holland export
ed more than twice the quantity she
needed for the sustenance of her own
population-hence the restrictions
placed upon those imports by the
United States government.
Now comes Professor ]. A. van
HanSeI, a Dutch writer of note, who
in support of Mr.. van Aalst's conten-
lions, puts the case this way:
! Assuming that the Entente author
lity's figures as regards the exported
! food values are correct, how far
would a years Dutch exports go to
fed the 1926 100000 inhabitants of Ger
many and Austria-Bungary? That,
he says is the way the question
ought to be looked at, and the answer
is 3 1-2 days.
But the figures, he claims, are not
correct. Professor van Hamel pro-
duces a detailed schedule, also based
on official statistics, showing that the
aggregate exports of the articles
named amounted, not to 918,S55 tons,
but to 500, 066 tons, or roughly 80 per
cent. less than was alleged.
His conclusion therefore is, that a
whole years exports from Holland to
Germany are just sufficient to keep
alive the joint population of Germany
and Austria Hungary for IL days
less 80 per cent, or two days, 10 hours
and As minutes.
