GROWTH UNDER LIGHT.
Department Of Agriculture Purpose
Making Experiments.

Washington. Electricity is to
be put to a novel by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. A laboratory
is being equipped in the division OF
pathology to conduct experiments
in the growing of plants by the aid
of and electric appliance.
The experiments will be based
on the theory that the growth of
vegetale matter. which ceases at
shutdown, will continue through
the night if proper artificial light
is supplied to stimulate the develop
ing powers to plants.
In some respects plants are
much the same as the human race, -
said an official of the department.
At night they 60 to sleep, the
same as we do, and their growth
leases until the following day.
The sun is their source of life;
keeping their growing faculties
working and being the foundation
of their natural development.
It is with an idea Of supplying
an artificial sun that these expert
mentS are beng made. If it is
found that tbs growth of plants
can be doubled at a nominal ex-
pense, and that they can be grown
in winter the same as in summer.
the agricultural industry will
have received an unprecedented
stimulus. Scientific research has
already done much to bring the
farming industry to a higher level,
but more is at stake in the present
undertaking, perhaps, than ever
before.
The laboratory is being made
ready for the experiments, and
work will commence soon. Owing
The Brownsville daily herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1897-1910, 1905-11-27

to the peculiar nature Of the ex-
periments, the department is
reluctant to give out information
concerning them, and it is likely
that secrecy will be kept in regard
to the progress of the research
until it is learned that the under
taking is practical or hopeless from
a commercial viewpoint.
Experiments viii be made largely
on lettuce, which has been found
peculiarly susceptible to electrical
influences. The plants will be
kept under strong light during
the night, with a view of having
the electrical rays take the place of
the sun. The light will be as far
as possible of the same radiance
as the sun.
1t will probably take a year or
more before actual are obtained
from the experiments. Scientists
attached to the Bureau of Plant
Industry have learned by investiga-
ton that it is possible to grow
plants by electricity. 1t has not
been proven, however, that the
cost is less than the means Nature
has adopted to carry on her work.
The experiments are in line with

HorticuIturaIist Stiles Here.

Among the recent interesting
visitors to Brownsville THE HER
AID met Harvey G. Stiles. man
.ager of the horticultural depart
.meH of the Gulf Coast Line, who
is here in the interest of that de-
partment. Mr.. Stiles is very much
interested in the Sabal Mexicana,
a paIsn tree which thrives luxur-
iantiy in this section. and his visit
here is for the purpose of securing
trees for planting at other places
.aionG the St. L. B. & M. Mr..
Stiles says if these trees were in
California, the people there would
appzsciate them at their true worth,
but eur people do not take any
special prii in this beautiful
growth. Tie gentleman is also in
terested in the growing of citrus
fruits in this section, and believes
they will do equally as we'll as in
CafiEoria.:' On this subject, Mr..
Stiles desires to be specially quoted
with regard to the time of planting.
He says:
Spring planting is expressly
recommended for all 1itrus fruits.
oranges, lemons, craps fruit,
(pomelo), etc. By planting in the
spriag the trees attain a season s
growth before the danger of cold
comes, and are much more able to
resist low temperature. would
also recommend the exclusive use OF
Citrus TrifoIiata stock, upon which
all citrus fruits should be budded.
Mr.. Stiles also says he has
secured large supply of this stock
for use of the various land COM
panies along the route, and can
assist those desiring to cooperate
in the work. The horticultural
department has established com-
pany nursery for the various land
companies. The gentleman says
one Cf the most important things
accomplished is taking steps for
securing rigid horticultural inspec-
tion. by the state of all trees, plants
and fresh fruits coming into this
section, to guard against the in
PRODUCTION of scale, insects and
diseases, and bespeaks the hearty
cooperation of all public spirited
citizens in this work. An in
spector has been appointed and all
stock will be unloaded and inspect
ed al Sintou, and if found infested
viii either be destroyed or turned
hack to the consignors. The i'm

portance of this inspection can
not be overstimated, as these infant
fruit industries are being started
with a clean sheet, and if the
introduction of these pests can be
prevented, Mr.. Stiles says we
will save ourselves vast losses and
the enormous expense suffered by
other selni-tropical countries from
these pests. 1t requires only
intelligence and skillful vigilance
to insure this, and it will be bone. "
Mr.. Stiles would be glad to give
any information necessary regard
ing the proper planting and taking
care of citrus and other fruits,
plants, etc. He will leave for
home in this morning.
Church For English Speaking Catholics.
In answer to call made by the
Very Rev. H. A. Constantineau,
o. m. l., provincial, and the Rev.
c. J. Smith, o. NJ. l., the American
Catholics to the number of about
fifty, met in St. Joseph's college
yesterday Afternoon at 4 o'clock.
The object was to consider the ad--
visibility of building a church for
the use of the English speaking
Catholics of Brownsville. The
Very Rev. H. A. Constantineau
presided and John D. Hill was
elected secretary. The chairman
extensively explained the propo-
sition about to be laid before the
meeting. By the unanimous wish
of those present Mr.. VIM. Kelly
spoke to the proposition, endors-
ing it and making valuable sugges-
tions to promote its realization.
After some discussion the vote was
called for and against the building
of the church. The result was
in favor of the PROPOSE
ition. Committees were then APP
polluted according to wards:
Miss J. rulay, 1st Ward; Miss
Nora Kelly, End Ward; Mrs. Jas.
B. Wells, 3rd War !; Mrs. Jas. A.
Browne, 4th Ward-Ladies' Com
mittee.

After the general meeting had |

nittee held a special session for
and immediate work. |
Mrs. Jas. B. Wells was elected |
chairman and Miss Nora Kelly,
The soliciting of sub
began today and a meet
ng of the committees will be held
lext Sunday afternoon in ST.
-oseph's college at 5 O'Clock, when
report of their work will be pre-
ented.
The new church will be dedicat-
d the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

the policy of the department to
lessen in every way the cost of
farming. In othor words, if it is
found that vegetables can be raised
cheaper by doubling their develop
ing properties the department will
have cause to feel that it has given
a stimulus to agricultural interests.
And if it is shown that the extra
cost of using electricity IS greater
than to allow plants to form in
their usual way no harm will have
been done. The department merely
desires to get the undertaking
down to commercial basis if it
is possible.

Grand s.eee.. Of ~. c.,s.,Ie s.....

The Catholic festival which ended
on last Saturday evening was sOci-
ally and financially the most success
full church entertainment ever held
in La Junta. From the opening
night until the close large crowds
were in attendance and all the diff
ferent amusements were marked by
the most perfect decorum. That
the lady workers judiciously mingled
business with pleasure is evident
from the splendid financial returns.
II is now certain that the net pro-
ceeds, after deducting the expenses
of every kind. will be in the neigh
bOrhood Of $500. II is calculated
that when the final returns are
made, the gross proceeds Of the
bazaar will be over 5000. Owing
to the great value Of the prizes the
expenses will be considerable but
Father Callahan is now Of the Opin-
ion that enough has been realized
from the festival not only to pay for
all Improvements but to relieve the
church of its present mortgage thus
leaving the congregation with an
elegant church and grounds entirely
free from debt.
During the present week George
Dieh1. Of Rocky Ford. will have n
number Of men putting in the new
cement sidewalks and fence. The
fence will be adorned with upraised
posts Connected with . fancy chain
which will extend around the entire
grounds. Already the gras on the
new lawn is beginning to appear 50
that early in the coming spring the
grounds will be one Of the beauty
spots in La Junta.
