a Few Timely Pointers.

The up-to-datc farmer has learned the
wisdom of doing his own thinking, and
in selecting a binder or mower to weigh
carefully the actual points of superiority
and to avoid mere talking" or Selling
points. The life" of a machine depends
largely on its main frame, which should
be solid enough to outwear the working
parts and yet not heavy enough to tear
itself to pieces through its own inertia.
The Dcering Ideal Binder has n high
carbon steel frame, hot-rivcted at the
joints. This machine has stood the most
severe tests ever put on a binder. ii has
n cutting apparatus that will cut any crop
that grows; elevators that will elevate
anything it cuts; a simple reel with great
er range OF adjustment than any other,
operated with a single lever; the famous
Dccring Knottcr and Binder which never
misses: the only bundle carrier worthy OF
the name; and finally Dcering Roller and
Ball Bearings, making it the lightcst
draft binder tnat cys' ,,t a sWath.

idttsburg Dispatch: Application of
seteetricai power TO farm industry is a
new Development in the electrical
hela.. There must be many farms on
Mhiell are water. powers, small or
large, which could be made TO yield
electrical energy which would do a
great deal OF the ordinary farm work.
An object lesson in this field OF effort,
as furnished by an equipment recently
provided by the Westinghouse com
psany for the farm of &. Il. Beardslee,
situated IN both sides of East Cana
dian creek. near st. louisville, N. Y.
There are two falls on the farm, one of
sixty feet and the other of 1870 feet in
height. The lower fall is to be first
aised for furnishing power for the
farm. Apower house has been erected
nearby and a horizontal turbine with
q 1so-kilowatt (%270-horsc power) gen
crator Installed. From this central
power house the electrical current is
now transmitted by conducting wires
tic! the farm house, to the barn, cattle
sheds, grain houses and Other places
where lighting o. power is required.
At these several points the direct cleo
trical current Is utilized to drive mo-
tors which operate various machines.
One motor, of ten horse power, oper-
ates a hay cutting machine, another
motor of the same power runs a
tlireshing machine and a third motor
operates a 44-inch circular saw for cut
ting logs. Each of these motors can be
used separately or all at one time. The
farm house is brilliantly lighted and
comfortably heated by electricity, the
result of a utilization of a waterfalls
power. Electricity heated fatirons
are in the laundry, and the Kitchen
contains a cooking stove also heated
by electricity. In the dairy department.
are milk separators, churns and other
appliances, all having electric motor
attachments. Outside the house sew
eral arc lamps turn night into day.
The use of electric lights in the barn
nnd outhonses greatly diminishes the
danger of fire, Besides having all the.
electric power he wants for his WI
purposes Mr.. Beardslee sells sixty
horse power to two knitting factories,
and the money received from this
source goes far to defray the running
expenses of the electrical plant, which
lis said to have cost only "a moderate
amount'-it should not be much more
than $1,000.

Necessity for New Department..
A cabinet officer thus explained the
necessity for snch a department:
AT the present time thereis no cen
trail head for the consideration of the
multifarious questions constantly
arising in connection with Cuba, Puer-
to Rico, Hawaii and the Philippines.
The war department has control of
these matters now, but there are many
questions, financial, administrative,
judicial, commercial and diplomatic,
which army officers are not eom-
potent to deal with, and ought not to.
be required to pass upon. As matters
20 now, there is a disposition to shift
from one department to another and
from one bureau to another, to escape
responsibility for settling intricate
and embarrassing questions.
"A territorial form of government
for Puerto Rico and Hawaii has al
ready been agreed upon. and there is
little doubt that the next congress will
pass measures in this direction. The
president told a friend the other day
that he favored a government for
Puerto Rico similar to that of Arizona.
and that if it were in his power he
would appoint a civil governor for
Puerto Rico at once, without waiting
for legislation by congress.
"As for Cuba, it will be impossible
to have any other form of government
than thc present military one until the
people of the island have taken steps
for the formation of a civil govern
mcnt. which the United States can rec
ognize. From the little progress that
is being made in this direction we are
beginning to doubt if affairs will so
shape themselves in Cuba as to enable
the president at the coming session Of
congress to intelligently outline n fu-
ture policy for the United States to
pursue.
Though the war department in all
probability will remain in nominal
control of Cuba for some time to come,
there will be many questions arising
that ought to be passed OF by the pro-
posed new colonial department. The
same may be said of the Philippines.
The collection and distribution of the
revenue of those islands. aggrcgating
already $4,000 O0 n month in the two
places. ought to go into the hands Of
experts with a proper system of ac-
counting under a single civilian head.
No one doubts the honesty of the army
officers, who are now performing this
duty, but it is unfair to the officers
and dangerous for the government to
open wide the doors for wrong-doing.'
