The Breach-of- Promise case which
has been stirring up the people of Yale
for some weeks past. is now over, the
case tried, the verdict given and every
thing settling back into the usual every
day routine. We will not agitate the
matter again by asking if you were
satisfied with the verdict.
Central Hall was crowded TO its
fullest extent last Friday evening to
see and hear this unique entertain
ment given by local talent, under the
auspices of the LBS. of the Presby-
terian church, and with training and
instruction from the Misses Sarah Nc
Kenzie and Rada Rapley. A good deal
of time and trouble was spent in re-
hearsals and otherwise in order to
bring the play up to the highest point
of excellence in the matter of acting.
And there was no disappointment
either to those taking part, or to the
audience. The whole thing went off
beautifully, the nature of the play be-
ing mirth provoking and certainly full

All About the Senior Annual

The student publication which will
be issued by the Yale High School has
been given the name "The Senior"
For the benefit of those who are not
familiar with such a publication we
will say that it is practically mag
azine i'm size and shape. 1t will consist
of 120 pages and be 8 x inches in size.
Like real magazine, 1t will contain
articles which will be of interest, on
every phase of school life. 1t will con-
tain original essays, stories and poems,
written by Yale students. Articles
are to be contributed by former Yale
teachers and students. Another pleas
ing feature will be forty cuts of teach
ers, students, school officers and school
organizations. The Alumni will be i'm
terested in department devoted espec-
tally to them and all Alumni are re-
quested to send their address and
occupation to either Faye Welch or
Clara Cooper who have this depart
ment in charge. IL is imperative that
our subscription list be completed by
April IL. Again we solicit the support
of all Tale people in our endeavor to
make "The Senior a success.

A Farewell Reception.

The members of the choir i'm the M.
X. church spent happy evening on
Thursday, when they gathered at the
residence of Mr.. and Mrs. John Holden
to hold spread" and give a farewell
reception to Miss Ina Palmer, whose
marriage occures next week and who
will leave Yale for distant home.
The tables were decorated very prettily
with pink and white bride colors and
unique place cards were used, having
tiny pictures of the bride and groom
to be placed In one corner. Mrs. II. q.
Lawrason acted as POSTMASTER. A
handsome carving set and a silver
pickle fork were presented Miss Palmer
and many good wishes were expressed
for her future happiness. Charles A.

An idea of the extent in which electricity is being used in
agriculture may be gained from a description of a 300acre
electrically operated farm on Long island. This farm, a portion
of which is salt marsh land not cultivated, was for years al
lowed to grow wild. 1t was about three years ago that the
present owner, a New Yorker, purchased the property and pro-
Ceeded to farm it along modern lines.
The first thing the new owner did was to wire the house
and barns for electricity for light and power. One hundred and
sixty electric incandescent lamps were installed about the prem
ises. All the machines about the barns were old, but were
easily cleaned up, and by supplying a few missing parts were
arranged for belt drive from a countershaft. The feed cutter,
root cutter, fodder cutter, tanning mill, grindstone, circular
saw, corn shelter, a small drill press and a horse clipper were
grouped SO as to be driven by one ree-hOrsep power motor. The
fact that no two of the large machines were needed at the same
time made it possible to use such a small motor.
It cost So 800 to install the private plant consisting of a ten
horsepower gas engine driving a five XIV. generator. But the
yearly cost figured as low as $650-1ess than twothirds OF
what the owner must have paid to rent electrical power. That
$3.50 was made up of, first, interest on investment and deprecia'
ton of plant at IL per cent, $420; and, second, OF running ex-
Denses for fuel, lubrcating oil and minor repairs, $3.50. There
was no cost for labor, because the plant required no expert at
tention after the daily starting of engine and generator. one
could do a fell, days work and give the electric hired man, be
tween times. all the attention requisite
The power plant was installed in an unused onestory car
riase shed, located at the westerly end of the L formed by the
linked group of farm buildings. That was about $50 feet from
the building containing the farm machinery and the creamery
but it permitted of utilization of a structure otherwise lde.
1t was found to be most economical to install a storage pat
fiery to provide a continuous supply of current SO the engine need
mot run all the time, or in case anything happened to the plant.
The new farmer turned loose this current on a churn, electrl
cally driven, and made It grind out, regularly every day, from
40 to IL pounds of butter inside of Is minutes,

until such a time as the advance in the |OH
market enables him to sell at the highest
rates often double what he. would have received without it.
A small motor drives the bOttle-washing machine and the pas
teurizing apparatus. and, twice a day, it works the milking ma
chine on two COWS at a time and enables one man to attend to
two or three machines at once. With a milking machine proper
w cared for as to the details of cleanliness, not a single germ
cal nossibly invade the milk supply, because, from the time it
starts from the udder until it is all in the Theoretically sealed
pail not a breath of air comes in contact with it. The incubator
and brooder are also heated by electricity.
Electricity sweeps the floors pneumatically and makes light of
that weekly back-breaking job with the broom. 1t turns the in
afternoon into a cool paradise by means of the electric fans, and
warns the house in winter by means of electric radiators. 1t
washes the clothes as well, but a good deal more mercifully, than
the wet wash laundry. 1t also does the cooking, ironing, sewing
and most of the disagreeable tasks of the kitchen.
To understand the fundamental principles involved in the
operation of dynamoelectric machines, consider first two mag
netic poles, N and S, of opposite polarity placed near to each
other. Between the poles N and S is a field of magnetic force
composed Of socalled lines of magnetic force which may be
pictorially indicated by parallel lines, as is done in the illus
tration. If a conductor, for example a round copper bar C, is
placed in the magnetic field, with its axis horizontal and per-
pendicular to the lines of the force, and is raised and lowered
along the path C D so as to cut the lines of force up or in
duced in the conductor. The magnitude of the electro-motive
force produced in the conductor depends upon the rate at which
the lines are cut. Due to the electromotive force, one end of the
conductor is raised in consequence of which there is a ten
dency for. electricity to flow along the conductor, and if its two
ends are electrically connected exterior to the magnetic field so
as to make a closed circuit, a current will flow through the
circuit. If the gap between the poles N and s we're infinite in
extent in the direction of C D, and IL the conductor C in its
motion along this infinite path were supplied with some sort Of
sliding contacts by which current could be taken to one end and
from the other end, the device would possess all the essential

however, the two were alone at break
