ELECTRICITY ON THE CANAL

Powerful electric locomotives
will haul the shipping through
the locks of the Panama canal.
The locomotives will run on a
raised track beside the canal and
will receive their electric energy
from a hydro-electric plant be-
ing built in connection with the
Gatun dam. The gates of tie
mighty locks, weighing many tons,
will be opened and closed by pow
erful motors in the remarkable
time of one minute and As see
onds. The canal will be lighted
by electricity and electric power
will he used for many other pur-
poses in connection with the
work.
The Electric News Service
states that to supply the power
to operate the gates and sluice
valves in the locks, and to furnish
current for the monster electric
locomotives which are to tow the
steamships through the locks, a
great hydro-electric station is be-
ing erected adjacent to the spill
way in Gatun dam, equipped with
three large water turbines and
three 1000 kilOwatt generators,
with suitable exciters and other
auxiliaries. There will be enough
water from the storage in Lake
Gatun to warrant the installation
of 5000 kilOwatts, though in the
dry season it will be necessary to
draw upon the storage. Altogeth-
er it is figured that for this cleo
trio work Z per cent Of the mini
mum water system of the canal
will be required. A part of the
electricity is to be used for light
ING the line of the canal. There
will be concrete lamp posts 100
feet apart throughout the entire
length of each lock wall. Alto
gether, 1000 lamps will be in
stalled at the lOcks.-Beaumont

DEMONSTRATION FARMS.

The Missouri Pacific Iron
Mountain System under the di-
rectiOn of its agricultural depart
ment is establishing the most eX-
! tensive system OF demonstration
farms to cooperate with the far
mers along it's lines yet undertak-
| en- by an American railroad. The
company has already established
five large demonstration farms
and expects to soon have a sixth
in operation. These farms range
in size from twenty-five to forty
acres which makes the undertake
ing the most pretentiOus yet
inaugurated. Work will be con-
Quoted along the same lines as the
Government demonstration farm
work, but will he on a much
larger scale which will make it
relatively more valuable.
At present the farms will be
confined to the tracks Of the Iron
Mountain Railroad, three being in
Arkansas and two in Louisiana.
The sixth is to be somewhere on
the company's tracks in southern
Missouri, the exact location not
having been decided
All the farms will be under the
general supervision Of Mr.. L. A.
Markham, Commissioner of Agri-
culture Of the Missouri Pacific
Iron Mountain, with headquarters
at Little Rock. Mr.. Markham
was formerl yin the service of the
U. s. Agricultural Department.
The U. S. Department Of Agricul-
ture will cooperate directly in
conducting these farms and have
field agents representing them,
and the State Agricultural Col
leges Of Arkansas and Louisiana,
c. w. Watson and Mason Snow
den, State Agents for Arkansas
and Louisiana respectively, are
giving unreserved cooperation in
directing the experiments.
Each farm is to have a resident
manager and each is to be locat-
ed along the tracks of the com
pany's lines in close proximity to
town. The Managers and towns
near which the farms so fas es-
tablished are located are as fol-
lows: G. M. Monroe. Glenmore,
La; Tom Andrews, Mer Rouge,
La; J. J. Lowe, Dermott, Ark. ::
j. w. Turner, Conway, Ark, and |
w. P. O'Neal, Hope, Ark.
The railroad will continue to |
experiment for at least three |
years regardless Of results, and if |
at the expiration of that time
the work has proved as success
full as ANTICIPATED, it will be con-
tinued indefinitely and both the
size and the number of the dem
Dnstration farms will be in
creased. Eventually it is con.
to extend the work into
Missouri Pacific territory so as to
cover the entire Missouri Pacific
IRON Mountain tracks with al
,hain of farms conducted ON mod
,rn scientific methods.
The experimental farms will be
trictly modern in all respects, be
applied with modern nipple.
nents, be well stocked and iber-
lily furnished with the best seed

tions gathered by Plato declared.
are any traces Of it now to be
found on the bottom OF the sea?
In the light Of modern science is
1t possible to admit that q catas-
trophe OF such unexampled mag
nitude as the swallowing up of a
whole continent could occur?
These are some of the questions
reawakerled by the investigation
OF the subject which NJ. T.. Ger
main has recently published in the
"AnnAies De Geographic
The clue to the mystery that M.
German follows is that which Is
furnished by the existence Of tho
island groups of the Canaries, the
Madeiras, Cape de Verde and
the Azores. These islands lie in
deep water near the place where
Plato said Atlantis existed. AL
though they are widely separated,
they possess plants and animals Of
the same species, and these spe-
cies are similar to those found in
Southwestern Europe and North
ern Africa, but entirely different
from those OF Equatorial Africa.
This fact is regarded as indi-
eating that the islands in question
once formed part of continuous
continent, which was either di-
rectly connected with Southern
Europe and Northern Africa by
bridge Of land. On lay SO close to
them that animals and plants
could easily cross over the inter
vening strip Of sea.
Moreover, there are living in
these islands species Of plants and
animals which once existed, but
now exist NO longer, in Europe,
where their remains are to be
found in deposits of the Tertiary
Age. The explanation would seem
to be that these plants and ami
mails lived oontemporaneously in
Europe and the continent of At
lantis during Tertiary times, but
have since become extinct In Eu-
rope, although they continue to
exist on the islands which are the
only visible remains of Atlantis.
But there is another curious
fact to be considered. The living
species inhabiting these mysteri-
Gus islands not only resemble
those Of Southern Europe and
Northern Africa, but also those of
the West India Islands and Gen.
trail America. This suggests that
the continent OF Atlantis ex-
tended completely across the
ocean and was connected with
America on the west.
Atlantis, then, was as closely
associated with the New World as
with the Oid and formed a means
