ELECTRICITY ON FARMS.

and it came about through the pres
ence Of the interurban trolley. which
ran through the farm. The farmer

utilized to do his chores for him and
be generally useful about the farm

THURSDAY, JAN. 10, 1911.
FARMERS ARE INTERESTED.

No man who attends the sessions
of the Tri-State convention can es-
cape the conviction that the delegates
are in earnest. They know what they
are here for and the majority OF them
mean business. There are few who
come for a recreation, others for a
good time. Whether they are here to
gain information, to rest or to cele-
brate-it does not matter. 1t is good
10 get away from home a few days,
to see new faces, to meet strangers
as well as to greet old acquaintance.
Those who came seeking information
and they are the great majority-are
the ones who will derive the most ben
eft. or this large class nearly all are
interested in some particular line of
work, Most of them have some hobby
Some Of them are carrying along a line
OF experiments. They are able to gain
much interesting information and will
secure facts that will assist and bene-
lit them.
Many Of the speakers talk along
highly practical lines. Some men in
a short address cpitomize the expert
ments and experiences of a lifetime
along certain lines of investigation.
Others illumine dark spots and
add to the store of knowledge gained
by the attendants.
The continued success of the Tri-
State convention is a monument to
the enterprise of it's promoters and
the progressive spirit of the farmers
and stock men of the state. There
could be no convention without the
presence Of the men who are bene-
hted. The fact they come here year
after year indicates there must be
some inspiring motive-some great adj
vantages to be gained.

HEN NOT A HEN?

The court of customs appeals has
written into. the law of the land that
a hen is not a bird.
This remarkable and revolutionary
pronouncement was delivered in a suit
involving some eggs imported from
China. The hen fruit had been brok-
EN-, the contents put into tin cans and
frozen and so brought here in compe-
tition with the domestic productive
customs officers declared. A duty of
cents a dozen was assessed by the
tax gatherers for Uncle Sam, but the
importers claimed the stuff should
come in duty free under that section
OF the Payne AIdrich law-which adj
mits eggs of birds without impost
To the august customs court the
case went, and the full bench of that
aggregation of wisdom solemnly set
Its seal of disapproval on the idea
that hen is bird. 1t declared that
the frozen egg must pay the duty de-
manded by the wise guardians of the
tariff extortion machine. And there
You are!
This decision stands on all fours
with some from the supreme court of
the United States-for instance that
frogs legs are poultry and that a yam
is not a sweet potato. All await with
the keenest impatience a clearing up
of that still moot question: What is
a hen?

Travellers Tales

AS Samuel Crabbe, president of the
North Dakota Poultry association, was
gazing at the purple hen and rooster
and the green pheasant at the chicken
show yesterday afternoon, he sighed
(You will notice by the above that
he isn't called SAM" but Samuel
This is on account Of the dignity OF
his office.)
He was leaning against one of the
pillars of the auto barn where the
show is being held and it was no.
ticed that he had been .scribbling for
an hour or two on piece of paper.
AS the hotel reporter hove in sight,
Mr.. Crabbe handed him a poem. He
didn't say whether he had written tho
poem from his brain or whether it
was copied from some one else, but
certain it is that it appears to be in
spired. Yet the readers of this de-
partment must not think that Sam
beg pardon-Samuel. is to be con-
sidered unpatriotic, for the poem was
inspired by the dazzling hues of the
three fowls mentioned above. The
poetry is fine 1t is among the finest
he ever wrote and here it is:
Ode to the Hen.
The eagle ought to have a place
among the false alarms;
We place his picture on our coins
and on our coat of arms.
But what did eagles ever do but
frolic in the sun?
They'd be in jail for larceny If JUS
tice be done.
They are not half so good to eat as
mallard duck or grouse;
They'd surely cause a panic, in Sec
ton boarding house;
And never in this weary world was
farmer known to go
To trade a pail of eagle eggs for nails
or calico.
The humble hen on t'other hand, still
helps the world along.
She lifts the farmers mortgage as she
sings her morning song.
She yields the fragrant omelet and
when reduced TO pie,
She makes the boarder feel that he
at last is fit to die,
The eagle does not stir the soul Of
earnest, thoughtful men.
So let us take him from the shield
and substitute the hen.

thus wherever desired - and when
wired up with the farm power plant
or source Of supply--makes possible
threshing and other field operations.
The farmers who live away from
cross country trolleys, taking the cue
from their more fortunate neighbors,
use electricity also. They produce 1t,
however, themselves, by means of gas
oline engines water power. or wind
mills.
Storage batteries thus become Inn
portant. and experiments and devel-
opment among manufacturers are con-
stantly going on to supply cheap and
efficient ones.
The use of electricity on the farm
has found an important place. But
what has so far been accomplished is
only fraction of what is possible
The rejuvenated, revolutionized, ur-
BANKED farm is now common topic
of comment. Every day sees il made
more Of a reality.

subpoenaed a restauranter in a blind
pig case. Because the man told the
truth-and didn't perjure himself under
of his boarders became in
dignant and left him. AS result he
was forced to close his restaurant. The
man had been an unwilling witness
and the boycott-most always wrong
seems to have been particularly un-
justifable in this case.
