Electric Farming.

Although agricultural machinery
originated in the United States and the
American farmer used patent mowers,
reapers and threshing machines long
before their European contemporaries
in the same field of labor had put aside
scythe, rake and fail, the possibility
of introducing electric power in farm
work was first recognized in the Old
World.
This has probably been due to the
fact that the farmers Of America,
thrifty and seeing, recognizing the
economy and reliability of the small
oil engine, failed to perceive how any
saving could be effected by generating
electric current and distributing to its
motors in outlying positions
When. however, the mains from some
large electric power company pass with
in reach Of farm or estate the condi-
tions are much more favorable, and
this state of things must already exist
in measure which will be largely ex-

newspapers contain an interesting ac-
count Of the application Of electricity to
group of farms in Saxony. The cleo
trio current Is brought from an ada
cent town by overhead wires carried
on wooden poles. Two receiving sta
tions are arranged, from which the cleo
tricity Is distributed to the farm build
fngs and to convenient positions II the
fields for the purpose of driving thresh-
Ing and other machinery.
Sixteen fixed electric motors are in
stalled for chaff and root cutting, oat
crushing, pumping and for operating
machinery used In the manufacture of
potato spirit. In addition to this pow
er equipment, six portable motors arc
provided, which may be used for driv-
Ing pumps, circular saws, threshing ma
chinery. and SO forth, at any point
where their services are required. The
houses and buildings on the farms are
all lit by electricity, 8 ar, lamps and
about 1000 glow lamps being used for
the purpose.
1t must be pointed out, however, that
this example could only be followed In
the United States on very large es:.itc
or a group of adjacent farms. and it Is
doubtful whether such scheme could
be made commercial success for the
operation of farming machinery pure
and simple. 1t would appear tLat wood

ry practically no foreign weed seeds.
1t is not as easy to grow any of the
other grasses or clovers so clean. There
is no need for the sower to ever buy
timothy seed that is much less than
99.5 per cent pure. Samples have been
examined by the station the present
year which contained not a single for
eign harmful seed.
The best red clover seed will fire.
quently carry as much as / per cent
of foreign matter, although these i'm
purities are usually comparatively
harmless. 1t Is, however, poor policy
for the sower to buy a red-clover seed
that is less than 9S per cent pure. The
best grades Of alsike clover will run
about 9S.5 per cent pure on the average
1t is doubtful If the purchaser should
buy an alsike whose purity is less thar
97.5 per cent.
Redtop is the most difficult seed of
all. 1t will, Of course, contain more
or less chaff. 1t is difficult to grow red
top free from timothy, and the seed
cleaners find it difficult to separate tim
othy seed from redtop after it has once
been introduced. Samples of redtop
carrying as high as II or even Is per
cent Of timothy are not unusual. If
one could be sure that the impurities
were harmless like chaff and timothy
it might be safe to buy redtop even
as low as SO per cent pure. Unless one
is assured of the character of the i'm
purities, it is unwise to buy a redtop
less than 90 per cent pure.

A peculiarity of clover is that we
may take off crop and leave the land
richer than 1t was before.
A proper rotation AMI wise :liage
will do much to keep the soil supplied
with available fertility.
Without stock there can be no COM
plete utilization of the farm products.
With stock there can be no waste pro-
ducts.
Clover and grasses retain moisture

BILE matter
More hay and less grain makes the
farm easier to handle and in the end
gives 1t quite as much profit.
So long as the home market IS not
fully supplied there is no gain In ship
ping away
Better methods, better stock and bet
ter tools have dou )'ed the productions
of more than one farm.
As rule the offspring Of immature
and pampered animals are predlsposed

There Is often more profit in grow

Oats contain largely the mineral
properties requisite to form and grow
bone and the protein that makes mus
Gle and other tissues.

QnnIIty of Grnss Seed.

The Maine law regulating the sale of
agricultural seeds requires that grass
seed shall be sold under a guarantee as
to purity. Bulletin 1873 of the Maine
agricultural experiment station, which,
doubtless many Of your readers have
received, gives analysis of the seeds
which were collected by the inspector
and those sent to the experiment sta
tion by correspondence In 1906. The
dealers are very generally conforming
to the law and the purity of most seeds
Is now guaranteed. The question nat
urally arises in the mind of a farmer,
should seed be strictly pure, and, II
not, how nearly pure should 1t be?
The purity Of seeds varies greatly
with their kind. 1t Is possible to grow
tImathy seed so clean that 1t shall car

DEATH Of JUDGE
HAPAI Of HILO
Was District Magistrate OF
HiIo for Three
Decades.

Henry Hapai received wireless mes
sage Wednesday evening announcing
the death of his father Judge 6. w. A.
Hapai, and that the funeral would oc.
eur yesterday afternoon.
The news of Judge Hapai's death
was not unexpected. His health had
been failing for a long time and for
several months it had been evident that
the end could not be far away. Henry
Hapai visited him last May, and Mrs.
P. III. Bartels, a daughter, about the
same time. These two are the only
children not residing in Hilo. The
other children are son and two daugh-
tiers. the son a bookkeeper for IL. Hack.
field & Co. in their Hilo establishment,
and the two daughters are school teach
ers in HiIo. Mrs. Hapai also survives
her husband.
G. w. A. Hapai was born in Hilo
sixtv-eight wears ago. He was post
office employee and followed other cler'
ical occupations until he was twenty.
eight wears of age when he was ap-
nointed assessor for Hiio, position he
eceunied for ten years He was then
anpointed District Magistrate for Hllo
a position he occupied for thirty years,
resigning a few months ago on account
of his health. AT the time he resigned,
Chief Justice Hartwell wrote a letter
of appreciation of his long and honor
able service on the bench He was
succeeded as District Magistrate by
Lorrin Andrews.
1t is probable that the funeral was
held from Hall church. Judge Hapal
and the Rev. s. L. Desha, pastor OF
that church, were lifelong friends.
