Electricity i'm Fruits.

An article appeared recently In n
French paper on the generation of cleo
tricity from various plants and fruits,
and now the English journal, Electric
ity," publishes letter from II. W. Hill,
n Manchester correspondent, who has
stated that it is q mistake to think that
n Frenchman discovered that electric
ity is generated during the ripening of
fruits, for three years ago, he himself
placed two platinum wires at the bot
tome and top of a nearly ripe melon
and obtained current, and connect
ing twelve melons in circuit TO bell,
he got enough electricity to ring bell.
Assuming that electricity is generated
through chemical reactions, Mr.. Hill
holds that in n very ripe fruit the cen
ditlons favorable to current production
may be analogous to those existing in
well known batteries. In melon
there are many organic acids, which
act on platinum wires, and thus mod
flied natural battery, OF rather an ele-
ment, Is formed. A long cucumber
also generated current, but IL was
very weak. and could be detected only
by means Of sensitive galvanometer.
Apples, pears. carrots and other fruits
and vegetables were tried, but the
melon was found to be the best gen.
orator. Mr.. Hill says that although
many will not be prepared to accept
his statement, If they will try the
melon experiment, placing the fruit on
glass plate they will be convinced
of the fact he vouches for. He evil
IDENTIFY has the courage Of his opinions,
for he maintains tlrat a battery OF
10000 melons win produce electric cur
