Experiments Show That Current In
creases the Yield.

The view that an electric discharge,
applied artiticially, is advantageous to

studied the subject The former found
that electrified maize and mustard
germinated in every case more rapidly
than control plants Modern ideas on
the principle and its practical applica-
tion owe much to the careful expert
ments of Prof. s. Lemstrom (Sweden)
and the researches of the late Prof.
Berthelot (Francel.

made in England to ascertain the pre-
