Destroying Insects by Electricity.
The Electrical Magazine, according to
German papers, describes a series of ex-
periments for destroying insects injurious
to the products Of the soil which expert
ments are said TO have been successful. An
engineer at Monaco was the first one to
have his attention called to it while he
worked with an electric machine in the
open air. He observed that metal rods,
which were put In the ground and were
then connected with dynamo of 10 volts,
made insects in the vicinity leave their
hiding places in the ground. He argued
that electricity might therefore be used on
a large scale 70 kill these insects. which
all came In great haste TO the surface. II
is probable that for the killing OF various
kinds a different voltage should be used.
Further experiments must be made TO this
end. An apparatus is mentioned, invented
by Russian, for killing injurious insects
by electricity. A dynamo is so placed upon
a handcar that no electricity is engendered
while the car is standing still. When in
motion the current passes into the ground
through the iron wheels of the car upon
one side and upon the other through the
points OF brushes OF copper wire, which
are fastened in the rear Of the car as 10
be few inches above the ground. The re-
suit is said 20 be that all insects in the
vicinity Of the copper brushes are killed as
II by lightning.
