The Rio Grande western Extension.

A good deal of conjecture has been going
on relative to the extension Of the Rio
Grande Western from Manti this spring.
A good many have been of the opinion that
the road would not move far this season,
and one of the officials said the company
would have to put all their force on i'm
provements going On at Soldier summit,
instead of on the branch, but one of the Off
Gals said Saturday, in Ephraim, that the
road would build through to Salina this
year.
The survey has been made that far and
cross -sectioning begun, and grading will
shortly commence. In fact, the train down
on Saturday had several car loads of horses
and scrapers to begin on the grade immedi-
ately.-Rcgister.

They viii Not Touch Castor Oil.

No sort of bird, beast or creeping
thing will touch a castor oil plant 1t
seems to be rank poison to all the
animal world. Even a goat will starve
before biting off leaf, and horse will
sniff at it and turn up his upper lip as
though it had the most detestable odor
on the face of the earth. Army worms
and the locusts will pass it by, though
they may eat every other green thing in
sight, and there is no surer way to drive
moles away from lawn than to plant
few castor beans here and there. Even
the tobacco worm will refuse to be fed
on its leaves. There is hardly another
instance in natural history of a plant
being so universally detestcd by the ami
NAL world.-St Louis Globe Democrat.

weakest girl may sit at Il low table on
which the machine rests, the tiny
motor under the wheel supplying
power which runs the machine.
In houses where there is an electric
motor this force may be successfully
employed to pump water, run elevators,
move circular electric fans, lawn
mowers and do churning. 1t has also
been used to black shoes. In a few in
stances it has been attached to parlor
organs and automatic pianos, and this
power has also been utilized to furnish

track encircles the table within easy
access of each guest and thence on an
ornamented trestlcworh disappears
through an opening into the pantry.
The dishes, electrically signaled for by
| the hostess, come in on little trucks
fitted with small motors. These trucks
stop automatically before each guest,
who, after helping himself, presses a
button which sends the truck on to his
neighbor. After all are served the
truck quickly and silently vanishes
through the shutter which is lifted to
allow its passage.
The electricians of to-day are study
ing the possibility of heating houses by
electricity. A great part of the energy
applied electrically for the purpose Of
lighting is dispensed in the form
of heat, while only per cent. of this
heat is yielded in rays of light, the
most being lost in the passage through
conductors.
The day is probably far distant when
electric heating apparatuses and many
other household electrical appliances
will be within the reach of any except
the wealthiest class. One great ques-
ton of the day is this of economical
electric heating, and the solving of this
problem may be more difficult than
those solved in the past.

ment This enables a contact to take
quired limits.
From the combined use of the Their
mostat and electric bell, a fire alarm
could be arranged.
An electric door opener has also been
invented The action of the door in
closing congresses a powerful spiral
spring, which is held in check by lever
until the lever is freed by an electro
magnetic impulse. The spring forces
the door open, the latch being at the
same time withdrawn. Electric clocks
are in common use in public buildings
where timepiece is required in all or
several rooms. Of these there are two
distinct classes: one has a centralized
government, where one standard clock
drives all the others electromagnetic
ically, while in the other system each
clock is free and independent time
keeper. These clocks are electrically
wound, and when science can furnish
an ineXhaustible electrical supply, the
action of the electric clock will be the
nearest approach to perpetual motion
yet made. The advantages of mean
descent electric light are well known
and need no mention.
This lamp emits so little heat that it
is especially appreciated in warm
weather, and when broken is in no
danger of causing fire. BY having a
spare lampin each room under control of
the burglar and fire alarm system any
disturbance in either would produce
not only the stroke of an alarm bell but
would instantly light the whole house.
The number of practical possibilities
and actual applications of electric power
in homework through the electric
motor is almost unlimited.
The motor is compact, silent, clean.
In domestic sizes of one horse power, it
weighs less than 100 pounds and the
simple turning of switch will start or
stop it. BY its use electrical power is
made available. It's principle is entire
ly magnetic. The pull that wire, con-
veying an electric current, is seen to
exert upon compass needle is intensi-
fed by having large horseshoe cleo
tro-magnet for the compass needle, and
many turns of wire close up within its
grasp. The revolving cylinder is an
electric treadmill by which the current
is cut off from each wire in turn as it
reaches the point of most powerful at
traction, so that the current is always
kept advancing toward the magnetic
pole, but never reaches it.
These motors are now on the market
in variety of shapes and sizes. In size
they vary from one-tentn one horse
power upward. The weight of q motor
of one-eighth one horse power is about
Is pounds, and measures 711x5x3 inches.

had the same experience. In this fact
is there not some suggestion for one OF
the first principles necessary in the con-
structiOn of DR.. Leite's music room.
One bright writer who is familiar with
the fact that electricity produces the
sensation of taste suggests that false
teeth be so constructed that a current
of electricity passing over the plate
should either carry off disagreeable
tastes or convert them into pleasant
ones. If this should ever prove prac-
teal electricity would overstep the linn
its of the useful arts into the moral art
of keeping peace in families.
The most satisfactory results of the
use of the motor in domestic affairs
must necessarily be in apartment build
ings where several families live in close
proximity. Many of the difficulties in
the way of its common use in private
families will be overcome when that
era of perfect housekeeping called CO.
operative shall have dawned.
When that time comes women will
find time to plan new devices and the
servant girl be memory of the past.
If electricity does not supply the ac-
tual mama by which the human race
shall be fed, it will doubtless be pow
erful factor in supplying the increasing
needs of our increasing population. 1t

which takes heavy burdens from the

FOR DOMESTIC USES.
An Interesting Chapter on Elec-
tricity in the Household.
How the Servant Girl Problem May
Eventually BE SOlved-LittIe Luxurles
Which in the Course of Short
Time Will Become Necessities.
[Snecial Corresnondence.1


The constant and increasing demand
for power to supply the needs of our
complicated civilization, together with
the failure of physical strength under
such conditions, has forced electricity
into service as substitute for muscu-
lar strength in nearly every line of
manufacture. This has solved a diff
ficult problem, and has opened the way
for one as important and needful, viz,
the use of this power in the household.
Some of the appliances brought into
use within the last year are so sug-
gestive of the future utility of this agent
that to hopeful minds the possibility of
solving, by this method, the servant
girl question seems feasible. The first
application of electricity for domestic
use was the bell, which was first used
early in the century. The pressure of
q finger on button calls in contact
two strips of metal and completes cir
cult, forming an electrical endless chain
from the battery through the wires,
bell and communication. The whole
circuit gives passage to a current of
electricity and becomes charged with
magnetic power.
BY an accumulation of wire as a
cord about horseshoe bar of iron, the
power is increased locally to attract the
bell-hammer and by simple device a
blow on the bell is reduplicated.
A similar electromagnetic in the
communication releases, by its pull, a
shutter indicating the room from which
the call came.
Simple designs for controlling the
temperature in houses heated by steam,
hot air, or water have proved to be of
practical value in the saving of fuel,
and in the added comfort of evenly
heated rooms. In each room an auto
matte thermometer is placed, which
makes contact as soon as a required
point of temperature is reached.
1t is so arranged that the contact
electro-magnetically cut off the supply
of heat from the chamber. AS the
room cools when the temperature falls
below the required limit, the thermom-
eter breaks the circuit and the heat is
readmitted.
This MermOStdt is made by riveting
side by side two strips of different ma
terials, such as brass and rubber, which
expand at different degrees of heat.
This composite strip is warped by the
changes of temperature which affect
differently the free extremities of the
components, until the effect is magni-
fed into considerable range of move
