ELECTRICITY IN FARMING.

That the end is not reached CT the
uses to which electricity can be applied
is shown by new applications
constantly being made of this wonder
full element of nature or what aver you
may choose to call it. The agricul-
tural department of the government is
now experimenting with its effect in
fastening termination of seeds and
growth Of plants. The experiments so
far made have produced good results.
In the near future there may be seen
electric power plants scattered over the
farming districts. with wires running
in every direction carrying the mys-
terious power to the surrounding farms
to be passed under ground to the plant
ed seeds and roots Of growing crops.
The Ladies Home Journal contains
the following account Of experiments
along this line that are being made By
the agricultural department at its test
farm in Massachusetts.
Plants treated with electricity grow
much faster and bigger than those
nurSed by mother nature in the old
fashioned way. This has been demon
strated in agricultural experiment
stations. Now Uncle Sam has set
about to prove whether electric farms
car be made profitable, n a special
laboratory has been set aside for the
purpose by Chief Albert T. Woods, of
the division Of vegetable physiology,
department Of agriculture. Electricity
is here being applied directly to he
plant, 10 The soil in which it grows and
to the atmosphere surrounding it.
What has been lately discovered IN the
experiment stations and elsewhere is
this: When a mild electric current is
passed between metal plates sunk on
either side Of planted pea seeds these
electrified seeds, although ~~SprOuting
later than normal ones. will have out
stripped h latter at the end of forty
five days. II mustard seed is planted
along an electric wire whose covering
has been cut off in places the growing
plants will, at the end Of a week. be
one-third larger opposite the uncover
ed parts, where the electricity has leak
ed out, than opposite the covered
parts. If beans are planted in two
glass jars and n jar has electricity
passed through it daily the electricifed
plants will a attained considerable
size at the end Of a week. when the
Others will scarcely nave commenced
to show themselves.
At Uncle Sans Massachusetts, expe-
- >"j station an electric garden was
aid out some time ago, and beneath
the soil, at a depth Of two inches, was
strung continuous wire which recross-
ed the garden at intervals of two
inches. 1t was found hat many varie-
ties of seed sprOuted much more rap
idly in this electric garden, that many
plants blossOmed much earlier and
that many grew much larger than in
an ordinary garden alongside.

Whereas, in our state youthful

The Republican Party in North Car

the republican party in North Carolina
does not want to win, as it would make
the division Of Offices too long, sd5
it agrees with Butler in this, but De
lieves another thing on which the
former Populist senator and the Record
will not agree-that the party does not
want to win if Butler is to have any
thing to do with it. Say what you will,
the Record truthfully says, there are in
the republican party in this state men
who are republicans from principle,

Tennessee "Jim Crow. Law Upheld.

Tennessee "Jim Crow Law Upheld.
In Morrison vc. State, 95 S. w. Rep,
494, the Tennessee supreme court holds
that a statute requiring the separation
of white and colored passengers On
street car is a proper police regula-
ton and does not abridge the privi-
leges and immunities of the citizen or
deprive him of the equal protection of
the laws. A proviso that the act shall
not apply TO nurses tending children or
helpless persons OF the other race Is
held not to be invalid as arbitrary
class legislation, and a provision au-
thorizing conductors to change the line
of division In their cars n assign?
seats to passengers in accordance
Herewith Is held not to be an unlawful
delegation of the police power to
agents of street a companies. A provi-
sion that passengers remusing to take
the seats assigned to them shall leave
the car, or by remaining thereon be
guilty of a misdeameanor, is deemed
to be a proper police regulation and
not invalid as depriving citizens of
their property, rights, and privileges
without due process of law.-Law

AN INTERNATIONAL LAND TRADE

If it be true that Great Britain wants
to trade the United States the islands
of Newfoundland and Jamaica for
the Philippines, We say let's make the
trade before she has time to back out.
Newfoundland has an area Of forty
two thousand square miles, with a Pop
ulation of over two hundred thousand.
The soil is good, producing good crops
of grain, potatoes and hay. There are
rich deposits of several kinds Of miner
ais, such as copper, lead, iron, coal
and nickel. The fishing is a most re-
munerative industry. the Goldfish fish
cries being the largest in the world.
The island does not belong to the
Dominion of Canada federation. 1t
and eastern Labrador form a crown
province, with a governor, an executive
council and a legislative body.
Jamaica is the most important Of the
colonial islands of the West Indies. It
is situated south of the eastern end of
Cuba and west of Haiti, about one hun
dred miles from each. 1t would be a
very important strategic point in ref
erence to the Panama canal, as ii
lies directly in the way of vessels pass
ing from the Atlantic ocean into the
Gulf of Mexico through the Windwarl
passage between Cuba and Haiti. The
island has an area of over four thous-
and square miles and a population OF
eight hundred thousand. Kingston, the
capital, is a city of fifty thousand
people. The chief exports are dye.
woods, fruits, sugar, coffee, spices and
cocoa. There are nearly three hundred
miles of railroads in operation. The
chief objection to acquiring Jamaica
would be the number of negroes On the
island; but in the trade We would gel
rid of a greater number of far les:
| desirable citizens. or subjects, as tn
| case may he.
Our government might induce Grea
Britain to pay a bonus if she is very
anxious for the Philippines, and i
| should retain title to an island or al
| harbor for q naval and coaling station
Acquiring Newfoundland nigh. b.
| the entering wedge to securing posses
| sion of more Canadian territory.
