I Our correspondent also remarks another
change. Formerly there was a great deal
OF cold weather in September, october,
November and December. and most Of
the winter came before Christmas; but
now those months are comparatively
warm, and the brunt Of the winter comes
after Christmas. Formerly, February was
a spring month. in which some farmers
planted corn. Now. IN that region. no
body plants corn until May, or the last
days Of April; and February has become
the principal, If not the central, winter
month. The latter part of December Is
sometimes wintry but more frequently

EDISON AND AUTOMO.
BILE.
New York Sun June %.

I'VE" 10TH Ouu, June Ao.
Thomas A. Ellison, the inventor, is
working ou plans to make automobile
vehicles light aud economical. What
his plans are or how the Edison motor
carriages are to be propelled Mr.. Edi-
son is not ready to say, but that be
will succeed 10 turning out something
better than anything yet placed on the
market he is confident. He laughs at
the French idea of motor trioyoles, and
declares that be will turn out tricycle.
which can be sold at low price aud
which will run $50 miles without being
recbarged. He is looking for simplici-
ty, and be says he will not be satisfied
with anything that child cannot
safely operate, and that will not be
entirely noiseloss.
"Come up here some day 10 few
weeks" said Mr.. Edison, "and you'll
see US running all around these park
roads and drives"
On the subject of automobiles in gen.
eral Mr.. Edison is enthusiastic. He
declares it will be matter of only a
few years when horses will be curiosi.
ties. When the automobile is perfect
ed, Mr.. Edison says the price of a
buggy or two.seated carriage will be
less than that of a good team of horses.
aud it will cost only one.6fth as much
Tor maintenance.
Speaking of the proposed interna-
tional automobile race between Cbarron,
the French inventor, and Winton, the
American manufacturer, Mr.. Edison
declared that The Frenchman would act
be heard Of at the finish.
"Charron's machine" aa:d Mr.. Edi-
sou, "was built for the roads in his
own country, where they have billiard
tables to ride on. When he gets over
here he will be stuck in the mud and
Wintoo will run away from him. Un-
til six months ago the French aatomo.
bile was ahead of the American. but in
the last six months we have made
wonderful progress 10 this idea. and 10
the next six months We shall be head
of the world"
Of his own experiments with the
automobile Mr.. Edison would not talk,
although he admitted that he bad been
at work for several months in an attempt
to improve on the machines now 10
use.
For six months be has been shut up
10 bis workshop devotiog his entire
time to improving a number Of his
inventions. The completion of pro-
cess for manufacturing American Port
land cement resulted few weeks ago
ia the incorporation of company for
i,s manufacture. Since the cement
process was completed Mr.. Edison has
devoted few weeks to Improving the
phouogrsph, wish suot excellent results
that he says his new machine. to be
placed in the market shortly, will re-
produce sounds several times louder
thaa The original. The squeaky wbirr
has been done away with. and the new
talking machine has voice which can
be heard plainly for two or three
blocks.
