KEEPING HOUSE BY ELECTRICITY

G. E. Carpenter, of Minneapolis, has
invented an electrical motor calculated
to be applied to all the uses of the K toh.
en-. His patents are applied for, III. &
is intended to form a stock company for
the manufacture OF the appartus. The ap-
paratus will be put in a restaurant in a
couple of weeks and used to do all the
baking, heat the fiatirons and laundry
rolls, keep the tea and coffee hot and
bake the pancakes. He claims that il
will be cheaper than gas. The Edison
company will supply the power. In
s~ulslors play an important part in the
apparatus, rendering 1t possible to save
nearly all the heat, apply it right where
it is needed, allowing none to escape
into the atmosphere. If Il room is to
be heated by it all that is necessary is
to remove the insulators, and presto ! il
becomes a regular motor. Several
electricians in the city are interested in
the venture, and predict a great futu G
for the invention.

no longer asked for. 1t is a grelt mis-
take to imagine that success without
effort will ever make man or wo-
man happy. What we cease to strive
for ceases to be success, and gradually
becomes more and more worthless
Suppose the same wages to be paid for
nothing that are now rendered for skill
and energy and persevering work: or
the same applause to be showered on
the mere tritier that is now given to the
public benefactor, could they possibly
kindle the same joy in the heart of the
receiver that they do: They would
mean nothing. stand for nothing, and
in short time would be nothing. No.
it is the pursuit which gives all the
zest of life; the toll, the energy, the
perseverance,, the endcavor that bring
the JOY both in it and after it. These
strengthen the faculties, whet the de-
sires, invlgorate the whole nature and
make happiness possible Without
them We should sink into the hopeless
misery of inertia No failure, no ad-
versity can be half so disastrous as the
ennui, the discomfort and the vacuity
of the idler
We all need to honor our daily pur-
suits more than we do-to realize that
if We follow them honestly and earn
estly their best results can never be
taken from us. This would take the
sting out of much that We call failure.
No one who has done his best can ever
wholly fail. He has that stored up
within him that which is of more value
than many transient successes. If, as
Byron tells us, 'They never fail who
die in great cause" certain it is that
they too never fail who live in the en-
ersetic and persevering pursuit of
whatever is good, or true, or usefnl TO
mankind.

Use Brains as Well as Muscle.

The National Farmer reports Il pota-
to-grower rs saying that twelve wears
ago he started out with the ambitions
of a young farmer. He practiced gem
eral farming and did all the work he
could do. He soon found out his mis-
take. Failing health and stiff joints
We're the result of this mistake. But
failures often teach II better lesson
than success. He finally took profes-
sor Roberts advice and did more brain
work and less muscular labor. and as a
Jesuit concluded to make a speciality
of one line potatoes. He buys no
manure, but plows under clover as a
fertilizer, and has no trouble to pre-
serve the fertility of his farm in that
way. He insists on the Importance of
working the ground up loose and deep,
and planting in deep burrows. He OBJ
serves that the tubcrs grow on that
part of the stalk between the old seed
and where the stalk first breaks
through the ground. Hence the i'm
portance of deep planting to afford
room for young sets OH the vines. At
ter planting, which he does with the
plow, he harrows the ground thor
oughly to keep down the weeds, and
after the potatoes are up he cultivates
with light draft plow. of course IL
hoe is never used in his potato field.
He also observed that the white grub
attacks the crop every third year. To
avoid these ravages plant this third
year on stuble ground. He believes
that the fungus growth that causes rot
begins on the vines and works down.
ward on the tuber. He was strength
ened in this belief by an experience
with frosted vines. The potatoes did
not rot where the vines had been kill
ed by frost, but in the same field where
the frost did not reach the tubers did
rot. He mikes one pound OF Paris
green with 100 or 80 pounds of plas-
ter, rs an insectitude for bugs. lie
goes over the fielq with this and Sits
on as little us possible.
| He thinks that digging costs toe
much, and has not been able to find i
satisfactory digger. With such one
he could raise potatoes at cost Of ten
cents bushel. He uses crates fol-
picking, and thinks that they save time
and labor. He would sort in the field
and draw direct to the cellar to save
future handling. Finally, he would
recommend selling when the crop will
bring an average price. If held for
fancy prices the grower becomes spec
! ulator
