Torbett Concert Co.

The Torbett Concert Co., which
appeared in this place last Thursday
evening, was well received by the large
audience that greeted them. The male
portion OF the company have sweet
voices that blend harmoniously, but the
words of their selections were ''out Of
sight" There is no exaggeration in
the statement that Miss Ollie Torbett
displayed exceptional skill on the violin.
The repeated encores she received was
sufficient evidence that she delighted
her hearers. Miss Lucille Mawson,
who presided at the piano, proved by a
number Of fine pieces, that she is master
OF that instrument.

uated within the circuit of the light,
Immediately began to grow rapidly and
vigorously, outstripping all others in
the garden. Satisfying himselS that the
cause of this was the electric light, the
gardener had set up in his hothouse a
large lamp of the same kind. After
one or two seasons trial he
found he could raise more Win
ter lettuce and radishes in the
given space in much shorter time by
using the arc lights, the incandescent
burners not proving so suitable, while
the quality was much superior His
profits were estimated to have been in
creased rs to 40 per cent by introducing
the arc light Into his greenhouse.
This was but another confirmation Of
the tests made before that in Europe,
and later on at Cornell Now it seems
that the French scientists have been
working regularly and systematically
on the question also, and they have re-
Gently claimed some results that are
promising. The French electric garden
in more successful than any established
in this country. An instrument Is used
to bring into play the electricity In the
air, cheapening the process of supply
ing the current to the plants. At the
present cost of generating electricity
it is doubtful IL its use could be made
profitable upon many farms, even
though it should greatly stimulate the
growth and quality Of the fruits and
vegetables. The French instrument Ia
supposed to reduce the cost Of genera
tion so that every farmer could avail
himself Of It.

The system consists Of laying a net
work Of wires in the garden where the
plants are growing and connecting
them with copper wire that runs to the
top of a pole some forty or fifty feet
high. This pole is surmounted with q
collector, insulated by porcelain knob.
The height of the pole enables the col
lector to gather the electricity In the
atmosphere from wide area. and when
transmitted to the garden through the
wires 1t produces better results than
the electricity generated by dynamo.
The atmospheric electricity is not
by any means as strong as that from
dynamo, but it's action is to stimulate
the plants without injuring them.
Gardens that have been stimulated
by the atmospheric electricity, gath
cred and distributed by the geomag-
netifere, have increased thcN growth
and products so per cent. Vineyards
have been experimental upon, and the
grapes produced have not only been
larger In size and quantity, but richer
in sugar and alcohol. The flowers have
attained a richer perfume, and more
brilliant colors. The effect on the whole
has been very satisfactory, and it is
hopefully expected by the French sci
entists that the new method of apply
ing atmospheric electricity to plants
will greatly facilitate our plants in their
future growth. Nearly all of the garden
vegetables grew with astonishing ra-
pidity when stimulated by the electric
current. applied FIRST to the seeds and

1t is difficult to explain the reason

1t is difficult to explain the reason

tion does occur cannot be denied. One
theory is that the electricity helps the
plants to take up and assimilate certain
valuable salts in the earth, and another
that it aids them in appropriating more
nitrogen of the air. Atmospheric cleo
tricity supplied naturally plays an i'm
portant part in the economy of plant
growth, and it has been simply a de-
sire to test its further effect that
scientists have been induced to make
the experiments. Now, however, it is
possible that practical utility may be
derived from the tests conducted in this
and other countries.
1t would be difficult to conceive the
ultimate effect upon our industrial and
economic life if electric gardens could
be successfully established by farmers,
and the yield iNcreaced so per cent. The
products of our farms and gardens
would thus be doubled, and the worlds
supply of foodstuff be increased beyond
the point of consumption or the acre
age would rapidly decrease. The profits
to the farmer would not by any means
be doubled. The cost of installing an
electric garden would form an item of
expense that they do not calculate upon
today. The cost of dynamo or bat
terry would be beyond their reach, but

1t is doubted by many whether the arc

wonderful results by this method, and
the plants were injured less by 1t than
many that have been subjected to the

Four years ago 1t was currently re-
ported that u market gardener named
Rawson, living in the town of Arligton,
Mass, had used the electric lights
to profitable advantage. His at
tention was called to the effect
of electric light upon plants in 1889, when
the town of Arlington began to light

Mr.. Bowler, the United States treas
ury official who thought he was big
ger man than the law, has been called
to book by the Supreme Court. 1t
was he who refused to pay the Louis
lana planters their sugar bounty. The
money appropriated for this purpose
was in his hands and he must now
distribute the same. The effect of this
decision is favorable to Hawaii, in that
it makes the lot of the American cane
grower more pleasant and diverts to
some degree his mind from the fact
that the Islands are somewhat ahead
of the state for sugar production. 1t
is worthy of note that the Louisiana
man rarely takes into consideration
the fact that he gets nearly two crops
to one in this country.

Important Points About "PuridnG." The
Great DiSinfcCtant,

In these enlightened days of the nine
teenth century IL is an acknowledged
fact that "an ounce of prevention IL
worth pound Of cure" and that ounce
of prevention was never better exempli-
fled than IN the use Of the great disin.
fectant known as "Purifne." The public
has had many disinfectants brought to
their attention. Some were good, some
were bad, and some were simply indif-
ferent. but none ever vet placed the

qualities of "Purifine.' In the first place
il was left to the manufacturers of
"Puriflne" to compound disinfectant

disinfectant, especially when in constant
use, becomes sicknning and disagreeable

Have been on the market but
a little over a year, but we
now have orders for them from
one end of the Islands to the
other. We have handled
other makes of mixed paints
before, but have never had
any that proved so popular as
those we now have.
The reason is they are made
of pure pigments, pure colors,
pure linseed oil and pure dry
ers. 1t does not pay to put
any other kind of mixed paint
on the market, with fancy
labels on the cans, for you don't
use the labels when you come
to paint, you use the paint, and
you want it good.

JAPAN AND HAWAII.
IPittsburg Dispatch

IL seems that Japan once had de-
signs on Hawaii with view of estab-
fishing a protectorate over that coun-
try. Fortunately for the peace OF
mind of the Americans in Hawaii the
Japanese complications with Corea
and Russia led that Government to
confine it's attention to affairs nearer
home, and she will not try her little
game on the Sandwich Islanders
Uncle Sam might have something to
say, too, If the Japs should try to
seize Hawaii, and there might be a
general unpleasantness all around
