The American Farmer is sincere In
what it says and whenever it endorses
an article, be it machinery, proprietary
medicine, or a man individually, we
want our readers to believe that what
we say we have good reason to under
stand is true. For a year or more
there have been endorsements OF the
Swanson Rheumatic Cure Company. OF
167 Dearborn street, Chicago, by this
paper. People have written us to
know if this company is responsible,
and II its remarkable remedies, for the
cure of rheumatism, neuralgia, dyspep-
STA, catarrh, kidney troubles, ETC., real
" had merit. We have therefore been
at extra pains to investigate, and once
again we add emphasis to our former
endorsement Of that company. There
may be isolated cases here and there
which, probably through neglect in fol-
lowing directions, or from exposure or
some unexplainable reason, the won
derful Five Drops remedy does not do
the work. But it is case where the
exception proves the rule. Mr.. Swan
son is a gentleman Of character and
personal integrity, and, we believe,
would no more attempt to deceive the
public than the writer of this article.
They still offer to send a sample bot
tie of rs Drops for Csc or large
bottle, 300 doses. for 81, prepaid by
mail or express. Address as above.

Bacterioloeical COOKING.

meteorological Cooking.
A Konigsberg doctor. DR.. jaeger, r.
Gently gave course Of hygiene and
bacteriology for ladies. which included
practical exercises in applied bacteriol-
ogy-for instance, in the preparation
and preservation of food by methods
used in meteorological work. At the
close Of the lecture the hearers were
allowed to invite their friends to an
exhibition of kitchen products-some
raw and cooked-which had remained
in warm room for periods ranging
from five to sixteen days. and which
were all found perfectly fresh and
quite unchanged in appearance and
taste. Nor, says the British Medical
Journal, had any complicated procedure
been required to attain this result.
The method simply consists in: Q)
The use of vessels with well-fitting,
overlapping lids, instead of the inside
which allow stray bits of matter that
may adhere to their rim to fall into the
food; (2) avoidance Of opening the ves-
sells in which the food was kept, or.
where this was indispensable. careful
manipulation, as in meteorological
work. and (3) the use of cotton wool
as a covering. Cottonwood lids had
been specially prepared to fit the wide
tops of the food vessels: they con-
sisted of circular disk of cotton wool,
tightly held between two metal rings,
the outer of which formed the overlap
ping rim of the lid.-London News.

N altitude that the air b extremely
rareded. and performs the function Of
projecting the electrical energy. II
there be high mountains in the neigh
borhood the terminal must be above
their crests to prevent leakage Of en-
ergy.
At the receiving end Is similar ap-
paratus. Here, however, the terminal
performs the function of collecting the
energy projected from the first termi-
nal mentioned. and transmits it to the
transformer, from which it can be dis
tributed for use.
The transformer comprises an in
sulating core or spool, around which
are wound many thicknesses Of nne
wire. forming in the transmitting ap-
paratus the secondary or high tension
coil. and around it are wound q few
turns Of coarse wire, forming the pri-
mary or low tension coil. In the re-
ceiving apparatus the fine wire consti-
tutes the primary and the coarse wire
the secondary coil.
This method Of transmitting energy,
Mr.. Tesla says, can be used by ships
at sea or by vessels floating in the air.
It can be used to transmit power over
high mountains when the stringing of
wires or laying Of other conductors
would be difficult or impossible, or by
projecting energy across rivers or
lakes. saving the trouble and expense
Of submarine cables.

Teleer.phins without Wires.

Nicola Tesla, who has added much
to the worlds knowledge of electricity
and electrical phenomena, announces
in the current issue of the Electrical
Review his discovery of new method
Of transmitting large quantities of
electrical energy to any distance with
out the employment of wires or other
metallic conductors, and with loss so
small as to be practically inappre-
eiable. The only conductor used is the
atmosphere at great attitudes, where
1t is extremely rarefied.
Mr.. Tesla's discovery. 1t is contended,
differs from others exploited as meth
DDS Of telegraphing without wires and
so forth, in that 1t transmits any guam
tity Of energy generated up to millions
Of volts and without loss.
It has long been known that II air
inclosed in . vessel be rarefied It be-
comes q true conductor Of electricity,
though Of high resistance. Me-. Tesla
has discovered. however, that the con-
ductivity Of air increases rapidly with
the increase Of electrical pressure, and
its degree Of rarefaction, and the pur-
pose Of the apparatus which he has de-
vised. is to turn this discovery to &C.
count.

A Russian Ship Canal.

st. Petersburg correspondents an
nounce that Russia is planning ship
canal across the empire which shall
connect the Baltic sea with the Black
sea, so that the largest battleships can
pass through it at reasonable speed.
Great as the plan is, it is so simple
In its engineering aspects and also
from financial viewpoint that the
only wonder is the work has not been
done long ago. Though the waterway
will be ten times as long as the Suez
canal the territorial conditions are so
favorable and the existing waterways
are SO large and deep and convenient
In their natural direction that only
about $50 miles Of the 1000 miles will
need to be dug, and comparatively lit.
tie dredging will be required to COM
plete the availability of the natural
waterways. The Baltic sea terminus
is to be the port of Riga, on the mouth
Of the Dvina river, which is navigable
for many miles from it's mouth. The
channel of the Dvina will be used as
far as Dunaburg, where an artificial
canal will branch off across the Lepel
watershed and into the Beresina riv-
er, a continent Of the Dnieper, the
third largest river in Europe. Then
the Dnieper channel will be followed
to its mouth on the Black sea, where
the port Of Kherson now Is.
The Typographical conditions are so
favorable that the canal needs only two
locks, one at each terminus, and the
soil Of almost the whole territory
through which the canal will pass is
Of the best possible character, being
clay of exceptional consistency. Five
years is the time which it is calcu-
lated will be necessary to complete
the work and open the canal for ship
ping. The cost is estimated at only
200. 1000, 900 rubles, or 1854, 400, 900, or
about one-half that at the recent val
uation in American gold Of the fluc-
tuating ruble. The engineers who have
been planning this great waterway esti-
mate that the largest ships can steam
through it at the rate of six knots an
hour, and thus 60 from the Black sea
to the Baltic in a little less than sew
en- days. Perhaps the most direct in
terest for Americans is in the fact that
this ship canal will open cheap and
quick route Of transportation to the
wheat-growers and petroleum-produc-
ers of Russia. They can reach the
Baltic and the Mediterranean with
equal facility and economy, and thus
supply Asia and Europe and Africa
more quickly and economically than
can the Americans. The canal passes
through the best petroleum territory.
Russia expects that the facility Of in
tercourse which the canal will furnish
will give great impetus to many indus
tries which are prosecuted at present
only for home purposes and which
could be extended enormously when
the markets of the entire world are
open to them.
