UNCLE SAM GUARDS BORDERS AGAINST Destructive INSECTS
Has Fumigation Plants Which
Take Whole Train of Freight
Cars,-Watch Mexico Now.
ny ROBERT FULLER.
Written Especially Tor The Gazette
Times.

Four huge fumigatjon plants, in
which a whole train of freight cars
is diSinfected in one operation, have
been erected on the border between
the United States and Mexico to
guard against the introduction of
plant insect pests harmful to farm
crops.
Some of the most destructive
plant insects that rayage the crops of
American farmers have come from
Mexico, including the cotton boil
weevil and the recent introduction Of
the cotton pink boll-worm, an insect
said to be the graveSt menace that
ever confronted American cotton
growing. The American Farm Blu
reau Federation has recommended TO
Congress that the pink boll-worm be
given immediate attention.
The Federal Horticultural Board,
headed by DR.. Charles l. Marlatt,
chairman, is the control body which
is intrusted with the administration
of the Federal Plant Quarantine act.
All ports of entry have government
stations where imported goods are
fumigated if it is believed there is
danger of infestation.
lust now the Mexican border is in
the limelight because of the immense
damage done to Mexican cotton BY
the pink bollworm, which has caused
as high as 50 per cent loss this year
in the Laguna district, the greatest
cotton region in Mexico. The in
sect has appeared in Texas, LOUISE
ana and New Mexico.
A special pink boll-worm commits
sion appointed by the governor of
Texas made an official investigation
of the Laguna conditions and report
ed the damage found there to be not
less than so per cent of the cotton
crop. AT such rate cotton could not
be grown proftably in the United
States, taking into consideration the
higher wages paid in this country for
farm labor. Plans are under way for
stricter enforcement of border regu-
lations and inspection laws

No Homes for Working Men.

Measuring Employees Value.

An entirely new method of measur-
ing the value of an employees work IS
receiving its first test in the garment
industry at Cleveland. o. Scientificai-
ly determined standards OF work have
been installed.
The wage standards. as they are
called. were determined after six
months of intensive time studies of
actual operations. The Cleveland Gar
ment Manufacturers union Joined in
paying the expense.
The amount of work an average en-
ployee can do In week Is considered
1000 points, for which stipulated
weekly wage is paid. For all that an
employee does above the average
standard. he is paid extra, according
to regulated scale.
In addition to guaranteeing the
worker a minimum weekly wage and
paying him for all he produces above
that, the plan provides for paying the
worker during whatever Idle time
there may be In his workday.

guilty of contempt of court and sent
to Jail by Judge Andrew ]. Curran Of
the Crawford County District court.
With Howat were found guilty his
FIVE co-defendants In the contempt
proceedings, all officers of the Kan

Fleming, james McIlwrath and Earl
Maxwell, executive board members.
All the defendants were sentenced TO
year in Jail and to pay costs.
The calling of strike in two mines,
In violation of an injunction, caused
the contempt proceedings. The strike
resulted from a controversy between
the union and operators over the age
of a young miner named Mlshmash,
because the question of his age affect

Cause Of coal Mine Accidents.

The accident rates In coal mines are
much lower in England, Wales, France,
Belgium. Germany, Austria and Japan,
because all the miners In one mine
speak the same language. The poly
glot workers In American mines are
unable TO understand the printed or
spoken instructions. and 10 not have
the experience in mining TO enable
them to understand the dangers ap-
parent to those who have been brought
up in the mines. The pioneers have
not stayed in the mines TO work with
the newcomers. This makes Ii bad all
around. The standard OF safety in
the mine is the standard of the most
ignorant miner or laborer. He may
cause the accident that win endanger
the lives of all the rest, and experience
has shown that this is what frequently
