ELECTRICITY IN FARMING

Experiments Have Proven That the
Subtle Fluid Is OF Great Value.
Sol Ne valuable work has been done re~
Gently on French farms at the suggea-
ton Of men who have made study 81
electrical science. The termination ot
beans, peas, and grain has been quick
ened to a marked extent by the electric
current. The apparatus that has been
employed with good effect by agrlcul-
turlsts consists Of an ordinary pole 40
to fifty feet high, on the top Of which u
Insulated row Of copper spikes 10 coli
lect electricity from the atmosphere.
An insulated wire transmits the electric
force to a network Of galvanized iron
wires buried four to six feet In the
ground under the growing crop. This
apparatus Is called a geOmagnetifere. II
Is claimed that an increase Of so Der
cent in yield can be obtained by Its use,
Grapes thus treated contain higher
percentage Of sugar and alcohol and the
perfume Of flowers Is stronger. The
geomagnetifere so feet high is claimed
to enrich the ground to the same extent
as ten times It's cost in manure. Il has
long been supposed that electricity az
slsts legumlnous plants in appropriate
ing free nitrogen from from the atnlos-
phere, but 1t Is hard to understand tho
character of the process. It scarcely
can be flxation In the earth OF nitro
gen obtained by decomposition Of the
air, but 1t would seem rational to sup
pose that the electrical force makes
the useful material In the soil more
rapidly and completely assimilabla
than It otherwise would be.

Morrill, Talks Honesty.

In a letter to q pardoned convict,
Morrill, recently said: "There Is only
one sure course to pursue-be abso-
lutely honest in everything; show to
the world by your conduct that you
can be trusted, spd 1t will soon place
confidence In you"
He wisely refrains from advising
him to follow the example Of the Gov
ernor of Kansas. 1t would be interest
ing to know what constitutes honesty
in the mind Of man who as public
officer willfully drew money from the
treasury to pay private obligations.
Settlers on railroad lands in Washing.
ton county might be glad to know that
Morrill, is trying to get other people to
be honest although they know that he
was not honest with them. The old
soldiers, the prohibitlonists, the whisky
men, the business men, the silver men
and the others tC whom he made cam
psign promises which be has violated,
will wonder why he don't practice a
little more absolute honesty himself,
Everybody believes that 1t pays to be
honest and it might even save Nor
rill's reputation If he would at this late
date try it himself. The giving Of this
advice to Morrill,, however, is probably
like sowing the seed In stony ground.
He could not be q very consistent or
successful Republican politician and
be an honest man at the same time.
The chances are rather In favor of the
convict developing the most honesty
of the two, although thousands of
people would be glad to see Morrill,
undergo q change In that respect.
