GROWING CROPS
WITH ELECTRICITY

In England they are experimenting
on growing wheat and vegetables with
the aid of electricity. The tests so
far have been very successful on
small scale at the experimental station.
A number of wires are stretched
over the field high enough from the
ground to permit the farming operation
to 90 on underneath. These wires ex-
tend all over the acreage under ex
pertinent, and are supported by posts
in long parallel spans, protected by
high tension insulators. Electricity is
supplied at pressure of 100000 volts.
As soon as the wires are charged
leakage Immediately begins. "Brush' -
discharges take place all along the
line; that is. the electricity fizzles'
off the line with peculiar buzzing
audible to the ear and with glow
which is visible in the dark. Anyone
walking about below the wires can
distinctly feel the effect of the cleo
tricity on the hair. This stimulating
action of electricity is what makes the
plant life grow so much better and
quicker than under natural conditions.
The electrification is maintained for
some hours each day but is shut oil at
night Gooseberries yielded IL per
cent. increase uder its subtitle influence
Strawberries, $3.50 per cent. increase;
tomatoes none. In another plot carrots
yielded so per cent. increase and beets
30 per cent with an increase OF l
per cent. sugar content under similar
treatment
Twenty acres of wheat were treated
with discharge wires at considerapie
height and high tension current; the
electrified wheat gave better quality

MAY END DIVORCE MECCA

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Nov3.-As
result of the election in South Dakota
today this state will very likely lose
the lucrative patronage of the matri-
monial misfits, who for some years have
flocked here in large number to obtain
quick divorces The voters today are
passing upon a law submitted to them
under the initiative and referendum,
providing that divorces shall not be
granted to any person married outside
the state who has not resided in South
Dakota for one year. Heretofore only
six months residence has been re-
quired
OF the $50 divorces granted in South
Dakota last year, 364 were non-resi-
dents, every one of whom came here
for the purpose of divorce. OF the
total number, 1874 were issued in Sioux
Falls, the chief divorce center. The en-
actment of the proposed law is expect
ed to reduce the number of divorces i'll
South Dakota to less than 200 year.
Another change that will be made by
the new measure, if approved, is to re
ouire hearing of divorce cases at reg
ular term of court Heretofore the
Judges have been very accommodating,
listening in chambers almost any time
to the complaints of those desiring a
severance of the matrimonial ties.
If the measure is approved by the
voters it will come into effect on De
cember 3, on which date the state can
vasing board will meet to officially an
nounce the results of the election.
