Flowing by Electricity.

In Italy an invention to propel
plows by electricity is in use. By it
eleven acres can be plowed in as many
hours. The invention consists Of
two power cars stationed each side Of
the field and between which are stretch
ed cables attached to the plow. The
electric Ocurrent is taken from q
trolley line; current of about 300
volts. E Each car communicates with
twenty-five horsepower, which can
be increased to forty horse. The plow
is pulled blythe cables from. one side
of the field to the other, and, when it
reaches the end Of the furrow, it stops
automatically, the current being cut
off. 1t can be run backward or for
ward with ease. One man manages
the plow, .and each car is'operated by
one man. OThus three men do all the
work. These cars are as easily man
aged as traction engines, aud their
power scan be applied to threshing
machines, corn shelters, pumps, grain
drills, etc.

Needed Encouragement.

81 remember" said an old naval
officer, hearing of an incident on
board ship which was commanded by
religious captain who would not al
low the mate to use profaue language
or violence toward the crew and
where the work and discipline were
carried on more by moral suasion
than by force, with the result that
things vent very slowly. The men
did not jump to the braces or ropes,
and the general work Of the ship was
slow.
while at anchor one day in the
harbor of Rio two Of the sailors,
leaning over the rail, were watching
the work going on on board of an
other ship anchored close TO them,
where the opposite system prevailed.
The air on that ship was lurid with
the language of the mate, and the
men were treated with a violence
that was far from necessary, but the
work went On quickly. The sails
were furled and the yards braced in
a smart and seamaniike manner. AS
they listened TO the sulphurous OF
ders of the mate one Of the sailors
on the good ship remarked sententi-
orsly to the other
Bill, d'ye see now what it is we
want aboard here2 We want little
