Since August l the operations

LIBERAL VICTORY IN CANADA.

Sir Wilfrid Laurier and the Liberal
party are masters of Canada. The party
which has been in power for the last
eight years has swept the dominion over
whelmingly against the Conservatives,
under the leadership of Robert Laird
borden. From latest reports the Lib
erals appear to have gained one of the
most complete triumphs in the history Of
Canadian politics and, contrary to gen.
eral expectation, they viii have a larger
majority in the new parliament than in
the old. They are assured of a majority
of nearly seventy, as against their late
majority of ffty-four.
The results show many surprises. The
detection of former Minister Tarte has
had no effect in the province of Quebec,
and the Conservatives elect only ten
members there French sentiment was
too strong in this stronghold of the
French-Canadians to be shaken in any
degree.
In Ontario, where the conservatives ex-
pected to make large gain, the Liber-
ais have scored instead and have cut
down the former Conservative majority
of fifteen to six.

FARMING BY ELECTRICITY.
In Him OILS They Expect to Use the Cur
rent for Flowing.


Kane county, Illinois, has taken the
lead in utilizing electricity as q power
for farms. The current that is used by
the electric railroad lines is being switch
ed to the farms through which the roads
run for the purpose of running feed
choppers, pumping water, saving WOOD,
operating creameries and for many other
purposes.
During the first part of the present
year a number of experiments were made
by progressive farmers whose land IS
worth from 500 to $125 an acre. The
best parts of the county of Kane are
reached by the third rail electric systems,
and it has been the current tltat has been
generated by one or the other of these
extensive lines that has furnished the
power for some severe tests.
During the first six months of 1904
George 2. Lord by the use of an cleo
trio motor installed on his farm thrash
ed corn, cut feed, ground grain, separat-
ed milk, pumped water and sawed WOOD
at an average monthly expense of S44o.
This work was done in 60 per cent less
time than If it had been done by hand
power.
Kane county is the first community
of farmers and dairymen IN this country
to make an extensive practical use of
electricity on the farm, and 1t is CLAIMED
the power will be made use of to ploW
the fields and to cultivate crops. Many
farms employ electricity to illuminate
farm homes and buildings. AT the Kane
county farm new barn has recently
been completed, and in it has been in
stalled a powerful motor that cuts all
of the feed required for the bag lnstltu-
ton and in doing a great variety OF other
work
When one stops to consider the Won
derful spread of the electric rail hnes'
which are the means of supplying cheap
power to the farms, some idea OF the pos
sibilities in this line may be had. Ii the
farmers take to the use of electricity as
farm power they will have abundant
opportunity to contract for supply OF

conscious in the Road.
President Roosevelt had a narrow es-
cape from death by being thrown from
his horse, while riding through the coun-
try near Washington on a recent Sunday
afternoon.
The President was approaching a high
fence at top speed when his horse STUN
bled and fell, throwing Mr.. Roosevelt off
forward. He struck squarely on his
head and was SO severely stunned that he
was unconscious for some time, just how
long he does not know, as he was riding
entirely alone. When he regained his
senses he found his horse standing near
him.
The President tried to mount, but was
so dizzy from the shock that he could not
stand, and it was some time before he
regained full control of his legs and arms.
He then remounted and rode at a slow
pace to the point where his orderly wait

By that time there was a great lump
on the right side of the Presidents head,
and blood was trickling from a long,
shallow wound above the right ear.

of the State was also on total vote
much less than a million. The largest
