oInnIng COTTON By EleetrIcIty.

For the first time in the history of the
world cotton has just been ginned by
electricity at the Agricultural and Me-
chanical College of Alabama, at Auburn,
thus furnishing an entirely new applica-
ton Of this marvellous form of power.
For the purpose of illustrating the
transmission of power by electricity the
class in electrical engineering, under the
direction of their professor, A. F..
McKissick, connected the generator at
the dynamo room Of the college with
the motor at the Statum farm by wire
5000 feet in length, the distance between
the college and the farm. By running
the dynamo at the college the motor at
the farm did the work of the ten horse
power engine formerly used. 1t ground
oats and corn for COW feed and ginned
cotton, doing the work in simple, effec-
tive manner. with small percentage of
loss.
This application of electricity not only
affords convenient source of power,
but also gives increased exemption from
danger of fire from the use of an engine
1t is designed that hereafter all work
of this character required at the farm
shall be done by electricity. Cor. st.

Lake Currents.

During the next few months great
many bottles will be cast upon the
shores of Lake Michigan. They are to
be thrown into the water for expert
mental purposes by lake captains, who
will undertake the service at the re-
quest of the United States government.
The experiments are to be conducted for
the purpose Of determining the set and
drift of lake currents, and will be under
the direction of the weather bureau.
The bottles are to be given out to vessel
captains, who will agree to throw them
overheard and enter certain data on
blanks furnished for that purpose. In
order to do the work Systematically the
great lakes have been mapped out in
numbered sections, commencing at Du-
luth and numbering eastward.
There are 40 sections in all, each one
containing about 1870 square miles.
When the captain throws one of the bot
ties in the water he will place in it be.
fore SO doing slip of paper, upon which
the data and the position of the vessel is
entered. On each slip is the request
that the finder send it to the chief of the
weather bureau at Washington or hand
it to the nearest government observer,
lighthouse keeper or postmaster to be
forwarded. By noting where the bot
ties 20 ashore, data will be obtained from
which the movement of the lake cur,
rents can be calculated. philadelphia

Measuring School Chndren's Teeth.


We are nothing in Boston if not origi-
nal, and the latest eccentricity of genius
which has come to the notice of the pub
lie is that of the connection of the teeth
with idiocy. At recent meeting of the
school committee an order was intro
duced which gives to Dr. Walter Chan
ming permission to take in wax the
impression of the teeth of the school
children, after obtaining the written
permission of their parents and guar
dams. 1t would seem that it would
have been simpler to let the matter rest
upon the parents and not bring it into
the schools at all, but that would not
have been sufficiently public, it is to be
supposed. The public might then have
lived and died in ignorance Of the fact
that DR.. Claiming has made his pro-
found discovery, and of course that pos
sibility had to be guarded against.
The details of the theory are not made
public as yet, but the information is
vouchsafed that the back of the front
teeth is the most significant portion Of
the mouth. The unhappy school chill
dren of the present day have to be meas
ured and weighed and nodded and test
ed and to be treated in so many ways to
furnish statistics that one wonders that
they have any vitality left to take them
through their other ordeals in the way
Of cramming for examinations.-Bost
