The agricultural department of Cornell
University has for five years been exper-
imenting to ascertain the effects of cleo
tricity on the growth Of plants. The pro-
fessors have found that not only is the
growth OF seeds in the soil stimulated by
electric rays, but also that vegetables de-
velop in half the time when the electric
light is turned on them at night in addi-
tion to the sunshine in daytime Lettuce
and radishes, likewise spinach, are some
of the vegetables thus forced forward. 4
truck farmer who, naturally, lives near
Boston has been for some years hurrying
forward his crops of vegetables by the use
Of the electric light at night. He says the
gain thus made is enough on one crop of
lettuce to pay the expense of maintaining
the electric light. This farmer should
try his scheme on beans. With electri
cslly grown baked beans nourishing its
brain Boston could raise the roof off this

How do the young gentlemen scholars
ofthis nation relish the fact that a woman
was the only applicant who could pass a
recent civil service examination for
clerkship in the Adiutant Generals office
in Washington? Besides knowledge of
typeBriting and French, German, Span
ish and italian, the clerk had to know
how to read proof and prepare manuscript
for the press as well as to index and cata-
logue books and docum ents, and likewise
to be well up in military history and the
technical terms Of military service, and
girl was the only one who knew all this.
The fact seems to show that, while college
boys are away on sporting tours, playing

girls are quietly getting in their work at
school and stealing away the laurels for

Right you are, brother; and a noble
victory it was, too. An effort of a life
time was made by the Democracy of
Maryland this year, and their failure
to reclaim the State from the Repub-

that the people of Maryland have
placed their signatures and seals to
their ballots of last fall and that Mary
land soil is henceforth and forever
free soil in every sense of the word.
The victory is decisive and final.
Future elections will substantiate

an aggregate of pensions amounting
to $1,S47.292. 80. Ohio is the banner
pension state, having no less than
103, Al pensioners, drawing SID, 522,
O78.5 Indiana has G8,213 pensioners
and Illinois has 68, III, but the Hoos-
Ter pension attorneys seem to be
shrewder than their neighbOrs, for
Indiana veterans divide $40, $50, 900. 70
among them, while the Illinois men
get only 50, 944, 283.38.
The list showing the residence of
foreign pensioners proves that some
of the veterans have wandered rather
far away from the land they shed
their blood for. There are pensioners
in India, Algiers, Bulgaria, Cyprus,
Finland, Korea, Tahita, Siam, st.
Helena, and almost every other spot
on the face of the globe. incidentally
there has been expended for pensions
in the first five days of this month the
sum of So, 725, 900, or over a million
dollars more than the receipts of the
government from either customs or
internal revenues.
