Corn CULTIVATION by ELEcTRIcITY.
Alta recent meeting Of the Polytech-
mic Society Of the West Riding OF
Yorkshire, the following description
was given of the result of the first con-
siderable experiment of applying The
free electricity ofthe atmosphere to the
cultivation Of corn. DR. Foster, OF Fin
drassi House, near Elgin, had thrashed,
weighed, and measured his eleciric-cul-
tured chevalier Barley, and the product
was the enormous quantity OF lo1 bush
els, or Is quarters per acre! The tail
corn was not measured, and each bush
ell weighed 54a lbs. The weight OF the
straw was $500 lbs per acre. The corn
Of the electric apparatus is 9l per acre.
which will last for twenty years.
The foiio,cing is The plan Of a plot for quarter
Of an acre:

Buried Wire.

Wooden Pin. IS yards. Woocen Pin
The mode in which the plot is laid
out is as follows: With a mariners
compass and measured lengths Of COM
mon string, lay out the places for the
wooden pins, 10 which The buried wire
is attached, (by passing through small
staple.) Care must be taken 10 lay the
length Of the buried wire due north
and south by compass, and the breadth
due east and west. The wire must be
placed from 9 to 8 inches deep in the
soil. The lines Of the buried wire are
then completed. The suspended wire
must be attached, and in contact with
the buried wires at both Of IFS ends.
A wooden pin with a staple must,
therefore, be driven in at A, and the 2
poles Zone Ia and the other s feet) be-
ing placed by the compass north and
south, the wire is placed over them
and is fastened to the wooden stake,
but touching likewise at this point the
