Making Electricity.

A wind power electrical plant Il
Indiana is a successful novelty. The
devices heretofore tried for this pur-
pose have usually failed because Of
the variability of the power. BY the
new method electricity is generated
as a by-product in the course OF the
windmill's service in driving water
pump. The water is led into hy-
draulic regulator built on the princi-
pie of a water lift in WHICH the pres
sure is controlled by weights. APP
proximately a uniform head pressure
of rs pounds corresponds to the ca
pacity of the water pumped by ten
foot windmill wheel. This is In
creased to 100 pounds for 14-foot
wheel. The water is discharged from
the hydraulic chamber by means OF
automatic valves. This regulator Is
pressure under all conditions wheth-
er the windmill is revolving fast or
allow. Under the uniform pressure the
water is passed from the hydraulic
chamber through water motor to
which a dynamo is attached. Then II
Is discharged through troughs and led
away to the fields II desired. Or 1t
can be stored up in tanks or reser-
voirs to be pumped back into the
hydraulic regulator again in case
water economy should be necessary.
BY producing an evenness of pressure
in this way the dynamo Is run at
uniform speed whether the wind Is
blowing gale or IS Just enough to
make the wheel go round. The whole
arrangement, when once put in opera
Gon, requires little or no attention.
Secondary batteries take any current
generated in excess OF immediate de-
mands. 1t has been calculated that a
l4-foot windmill should produce
enough electricity to light the aver
age farm, generating in the daytime
the current that is burned at night
The cost of maintenance is said to be
almost nothing, and 1t must be re-
membered that while the electric
plant is doing its good work the wind
mill proceeds with Its usual opera
tions.
