New Addition to Agricultural Building
Erected with That End in View

The addition to the Experiment Sta
ton wing of the State Agricultural
building will be begun at once and
finished as soon as possible. 1t will be
completed by the early autumn. This
extension win be forty by seventy
feet The committee calls it the eX-
pansion of the experiment station.
The executive committee of the
State BOARD of Agriculture has been
in session here the past two days.
They disposed of the usual amount of
routine business. Col. w. T. Green, of
Franklinton, chairman of the Board;
DR.. w. r. Capehart, of Avoca; Mr.. J. J..
Nelson, of Lenoir; Capt. r. w. Whar-
ton, of Washington, and Mr.. +. II.
Fries, of Salem, were present.
They considered carefully the plans
for the addition.
Prof. j. A. Holmes, State Geologist,
appeared before the committee, and
requested that the extension be built
in a7eh a way as will render conven-
lent an addition to the State Museum,
which viii he requested of the next
State Legislature. 1t is proposed to
add a distinctly geological department
to the museum. Prof Holmes has col
lected a large number of fine geological
specimens that can now find no place
in the museum. They are stored away
in cellars here and at Chapel Hill. All
these will be put on exhibition If the
Legislature grants the extension. The
entire cost would be less than $4,000.

When electricity came to be solid, II
was necessary to measure it commer-
eially. To this task Edison set himself
in the course of his development of that
remarkable series OF inventions which
gave to the world a perfected lighting
system Electricity can be measured by
the work it does. either chemically or
mechanically. Edison's chemical meter
depends on the simple fact that one am
pere of electricity will deposit from sui
phate Of zinc under tandard conditions
a lin weight of metal. This type Of
meter is, in fact, a small electro-paatfng
battery, through which a certain proper
ton Of the current USED is carried-rhe
proportion being accurately determined
by the relative size of the meter wires
and the shunts-With the result that one
Of the TWO plates is decreased and the
ether increased IN weight, according to
the amount OF currency consumed with
m the mousse This meter does not give a
visible record. which is an advantage of
the meters. OF these there
are many varieties, those most IN use in
this country beng the Thcmson-Houston
watt-neter and the Westinghouse or
Schallenberg aupere-meter. both of which
are small motors, driven faster or slower
less, and communicating their action to
a train Of wheels with dials Ike those
of the gaS-nleter, so that they may be
verified by burning a given number Of
lamps for an hour and comparing the
dials at the beginning and end of the
time. The meter record Is taken usually
once a month, by the supply companies,
with as much certainty as though cleo
tricfty were a visible thing.
