ELECTRICITY IS SOLVING THE
PROBLEM OF FARM LABOR

the smaller known as Tracy brook
all this while the streams had been
doing little else than make a merry
noise over the rocks and pebbles. In
vestigation proved that these streams
offered cheap and reliable sources OF
power, and the engineers decided that
1t was time they went to work IL they
were to continue living" with Mr.
Miner Three small concrete dams
were thrown across the Tracy brook
giving a reservoir area of 10 acres. A
concrete penstock a inches in diam
eter and $40 feet long carries the wat
er from the lower dam to tiny power
house, under a 19 foot head, where ii
dashes against the blades Of two pow
erful reaction turbine water wheels
On each water wheel shaft is fastened
the revolving armature of an electric
dynamo, one of 40 horsepower and
one of II horse power, generating d.
rect current at a pressure of 220 volts.
This electrical energy is transmitted
over a pole line one and one-fourth
miles to a small distributing station To-
Gated in the main group of farm build
ings.
Such was the initial equipment, but
the new hired man" did his work SO
thoroughly and so well-never COM
planning about early rising, never OBJ
jscting to scrubbing the milk cans or
turning the hateful grindstone, and
never getting mad and quitting the
very morning that five acres Of hay
were down and ready for the barn
that it was decided to erect a new and
larger power plant on the Chazy river
about a mile below the Track brook
power and extend the electriication to
every portion Of the farm work. A
the water storage and a sec
ond dam was constructed below
the first to give the waterwheels the
benefit of thirty feet fall, for it is the
weight of water in falling which con-
stitutes it's power. This water is car
ried to the Little Chazy power house
through a concrete penstock 4Sx60 in
ches and $40 feet in length, where is
pours into q concrete flume. Through
steel pipes the pent-up waters rush
out with the force Of nearly 300 horses,
madly whirling turbines and genera
tors until the potential energy of the
water is changed into 200 electrical
horse power, alternating current, at a
pressure of 1900 volts. This electrical
power Is carried over copper wires,
strung on poles, two and three quarter
miles to the same little central distri-
button station at the farm. No ex-
pense was spared to make the power
houses the most perfect models of their
kind. Besides being all connected on
the telephone line they are equipped
with both hand and automatic govern
ers and controllers so the service can
not be interrupted by accident and can
be easily controlled under all condi-
tons.
In the central power station are To-

Securing adequate hired help for the
farm is no longer a serious problem for
III. M. Miner, at Chazy, N. Y, now that
his new hired man, Electricity, milks
the cows, prepares the feed for the
stock, pumps the water, separates and
churns the cream and does most OF
the other chores about the farm.
Hearts Delight" is the name Of this
magnificent country estate owned by
Mr.. Miner in Clinton county. This es-
tate covers an area of $3.50 acres, sur
rounding the old Miner homestead OF
$50 acres. Twelve hundred acres are
under cultivation and a like number
are used for pasturage. The remainder
is pretty woodland, clothing hill and
dale, fell and void, in the majestic foil
age OF the northland.
There are many things of interest
about this wonderful country home
from the elk, deer and buffalo in the
pretty little park to the fine herds OF
pure bred, shorthorn Durham and
Guernsey cattle, the Dorset sheep and
the registered Percheron and Belgian
horses. The bird fancier could profit
different breeds of choice fowls or the
SQUAD industry and the sportsman
would be more than interested in the
well equipped fish hatchery where trout
are propagated. But for me, with an
engineering bent of mind, nothing was
worth noticing until / had inspected
whence came this wonderful electrical
power which I found on every hand
so busy with the farm work.
Nearly three years ago it was when
Mr.. Miner decided to provide his farm
with electricity for light and power,
and so successful was this initial in
stallation that the plant has been add
ed to from time to time, resulting in
the most complete and novel applica-
ton OF electricity on the farm to be
found in the world.
For hundreds Of years two streams
had noisily traversed the Miner farm,

OUTING AT ORPHANAGE

Medical doctors as a rule claim
that drugs are the only remedies for
disease, although some of the leading
doctors say that it is only super

drugs never cure any disease. Other
practitioners say there is no remedy
OF any value except the human hand;
that's their side of it. Against these
two conflicting claims put that Of
