Hedqe Trimminq Made Easy.

Hedge trimming has been made easy by the ingenuity of an Oregon man who has devised a machine that will cut as many branches as a dozen men working by hand at once, will cut them straight and will cut them with out any difficulty. The machine con- sists of a large number of teeth set in a row and all operated by the same shaft, which is turned by a handle. Their effect is that of so many pairs of shears working in the same line side by side The device is fastened to the operators body by a harness so that it sets firmly, and, while he guides the knives with his left hand, with his right hand he turns the crank that opens and closes them.

Interesting Experiments by Farmers
 In the North of Germany.
 At Hoppegarten, near Berlin, pr. Breslauer has given a practical dem onStratiOn of the fact that existing technical means admit of the crops being considerably improved at no very great cost by the application of the electric current. The experiments which have been made for thirty years past in Sweden, England and Germany have led to a conclusion important for the future of agriculture Farmers have long known that frequent thun- derstorms, such as often occur in the north German lowlands during the summer months, have very favorable influence on the growth of the crops. More than thirty years ago the Swed- jSh professor LemstrOm proved that the rapid growth of plants in the polar 'Ggions was attributable to the strong a'actricity of the air found in those parts. Generally speaking, the first at tempt to increase fertility by spanning a net charged with electricity across the fields was carried out by a pr. Pringsheim on his property at Kry- schanowitz, near Breslau. He succeed ed in obtaining an increased prOduc- tion of 12S per cent from strawberries, 12O to 140 per cent from beet root and 32 per cent in the case of beans and barley. But the necessity for always having to remove a net which was stretched across the ground at very low height before the usual agricul- tural work could be proceeded with mCCe the process too expensive for practical utility. The electrical eIgi- lecr NeumGnn then tried a net with strong alternating currents, which still proved effective when erected at the height of five meters from the ground, in tl!iS lnanner TO lOnGcr hindering the harvesters at their work. Experience soon showed that an equally sure re- suit could be obtained by erecttng iso- lated raarts at intervals of ten meters and attached tO ore another by thin wire. Sir Oliver Ledge was able to prove that by this system an increased production of from 30 to 40 per cent of wheat and barley could be obtained, the proportion of glutinous flour in the grains being q higher enc, so that the market rricc of the elect;i ally ferti lized wheat increased by IF per cent. The latest experiments. which have been carried out on larger scale by Dr. BreSlauer were intended to con- vince the German farmers of the prac- tical utility of this process.

If the soil has been properly water ed after the sowing of vegetable seeds little attention in this direction will be needed before the proper time for transplanting. This will depend large ly upon the character of the weather. In bright, sunny weather. when free ventilation is required, the flats may need an application of water almost daily. Excessive watering, however, should be guarded against, as it tends to produce tender, spindling plants.

HorseIess cultivator a Success.

What the inventor says will be a great boon to small farmers, as the invention, 1t is claimed, will do the work of six horses, is in use in Cali fornia, but 1t can be adapted to any locality. It is a gasoline tractor and is a help in blowing, narrowing and harvesting. It will keep running as long as it is fed gasoline.
 Built with a two cylinder motor, the tractor has plenty of power. It has two speeds, forward and reverse, and is easily operated from an extension seat, from much the same position a driver would occupy with his team.
 It is particularly an orchard tractor, having low. wide wheels, narrow tread, short wheel base and short turn ing radius. A special feature is that the tractor may be driven from the seat of the ordinary wheel blow or harrow, enabling one man to drive and operate the levers of this blow and cultivator with perfect ease and con venience. It is a one man machine. light in weight, with all control levers conveniently arranged.
 To obtain the greatest efficiency the front wheels are made the traction wheels; also the steering wheels. l. the rear are smaller plain wheels close together, with flanges to hold
