ELECTRICITY
 ON THE FARM

The farmer is just awakening to the importance of power in connection with his agricultural work. It has been prac- ticaly. demonstrated that electricity is the ideal power for farm use. because 1t can be readily transmitted, with safety and economy, to any point where needed and applied in any quantity desired. With electricity the power plant, whether
 the energy is generated from water, steam or gasolene, is always located in one place and the current is transmitted over insulated wires to the milk room
 the dairy, the hay loft or to any other
 part of the farm and farm buildings to do the work or to dispel the darkness
 Among the power machines which car be purchased for a nominal sum in these days of labor-saving devices are the fol lowing:
 Feed grinders, root cutters, fodder cut ters, fannning mills, grindstones, circular saws. corn shelters, drill presses, ensilage cutters and elevators, threshing ma chimes, cream separators, churns, vacuum cleaners, ice cream freezes, dough mixers, feed mixers. chicken hatchers and nu-
 merous other machines and implements. All these machines can be readily oper- dted by small motors. The amount of power required to oper- ate many of these Is small. The presence of plant of sufficient capacity to oper- ate one or two particular machines often makes it possible to use the power tor | many of the other purposes. The amount of work that small amount of power will do may be judged from the follow ing brief statements of what is actually being done with small existing power plants:
 Six horsepower will drive grain sep arator and thresh 25O0 bushels of oats in 10 hours.
 Three horsepower furnishes all power
 needed to make 5000 pounds of milk into cheese in one day.
 Six horsepower will run a feed mfll grinding 20 bushels of corn an hour
 Five horsepower grinds 25 to 70 bush els of feed. or 10 to F bushels of ear corn an hour.
 Seven horsepower drives an 1s-inch sep- arator. burr mill and corn cob crusher and corn-sheller. grinding from 12 to 15 bushels of good fine meal | Six horsepower runs heavy apple | grater, grinding and pressing 200 and 250 bushels of apples an hour | Five horsepower will drive 30-inch cir oular saw. saving from 5O to 75 cords of | stove wood and from hard oak in 10 | hours.
 | Six horsepower saws all the wood four
 men can pile in cords. Twelve horsepower will rive a 50-incn circular saw, saving 4000 feet of oak or
 5000 feet of poplar in a day i! Ten horsepower will run a 16-nch cut
 ter and blower, and elevate the ensilage | into slo 90 feet high at the rate of
 seven tons per hour
 | One horsepower will pump water from
 a well of ordinary depth in sufficient
 quantity to supply an ordinary farm house and all the buildings with water
 for all the ordinary uses.

Pennsylvania Walnut Trees
Bell Phone 7e
,m the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record.
 Walnut trees are becoming scarcer from year to year in eastern Pennsyl- vania owing to the high prices they command. Exporters make systematic tours through the rural regions, buy ing up all the walnut trees that can be had. They pay $50 to $100 tree, or even more if the specimen is partic- ularly attractive.
 A big walnut tree on the Hutchinson estate in Cheltenham has just been cut down and the timber will be shipped abroad. A Wilmington exporter of wal nut logs bought this and other trees in the vicinity. These logs, 1t Is said, are to be manufactured into gun stocks in France Formerly walnut timber was in demand in Europe principally for use in making veneer for furniture.

Chinese Boy Emperor

From the Hoei Pao.
 An American doctor recently visited the palace at Pekin to examine the baby Emperor, who, 1t was found, had |gorged himself with meal of swal- lows nests Ga sort of glutinous mate riaD and thus provoked raging thirst. The indisposition yielded easily to tho doctors treatment.
 The Emperor, he says, sleeps in a gigantic bed. big enough for six peo- pie. He rises at 6 o'clock, at once has a meal of rice and gruel or rice, and then goes to pay his respects to the Dowager Lung-yu,s who is on most af- fectionate terms with him. Even his own father and mother have to kneel to him when they visit him.
 A Chinese nurse named Mrs. Chang, aged 43, carries him about all day and sleeps in small bed by the side of his. The Emperors rooms are full of expensive toys.
