Six Mile Using Electricity Today fol
Ons - Equipped in the Past.

The old time grist mill with its
moss-grown wheel and millrace, like
the mule drawn canal boat, is des-
tined to be succeeded within a few
years by new creations efficiently OPP
Grated by electric power. Research
specialists of the General Electric
Company after a thorough canvass
of the milling industry, have anthem
tic evidence showing the steady gains
made by electricity in the field of
milling operations at one time oc-
cupied exclusively by steam, water
and gas power.
Six hundred and two milling firms
are now using electricity in prefer
ence to steam, gas or even water
power. Ten years ago the best lists
obtainable placed the number Of
-four mills using electricity at less
than one hundred. This means for
every mill operated by electricity in
1906, at least six are equipped for
using electricity today.
A tabulation Of millers buying
electricity and those generating it
themselves, clearly indicates that
whenever possible private plants are
shut down and the necessary power
bought at a reasonable price from a
central station. OF the COZ millers
using electricity to grind or elevate
grain and feed, $50 have adopted the
bought power system while 252 still
generate their own power.

moved to Springfield where he went

after taking business course to
please his father, he allied himself
with several successive musical and
dramatic companies on tour. He then
presented himself to Thos. H. Ince,
and was Immediately accepted. His
advancement was SO rapid that he
gave up all idea of ever returning to

Community chrIatmaa.

The celebration Of the community
Christmas" In this country originated
in @ dinner table conversation of q
group of artists in New York some
years ago. One Of the group. young
man who had just returned from study
In Germany, was enthusiastic over the
community festivals there, and the
transplanting Of the celebration to
the United Statec had its birth at that
time. The first community Christmas
tree in this country was the Madison
square "Tree of Light" in 1912; vari-
GUS factors in the life Of New York
as a community contributed to the ar
rangement and financing of the tree.
Since then the custom has spread to
hundreds of cities, towns and villages,
which have adapted the idea to their
particular needs and circumstances,
and plan to make 1t a permanent es-
tablishment. The custom has existed
in Germany for many years-is. in
fact, an old German tradition and
fast"

French Are Said to Be Fitting the
Fast Machines to Use az
Transports.

An ingenious combination of aero
plane and motor car is now being used
by the French army for the purpose
OF transporting troops and food and
ammunition supplies across swamp
country, deserts and sandy ground.
These aero-motors are driven by an
eight-foot propeller which revolves in
the rear of q four-wheeled car at e
speed of 1000 revolutions q minute.
The propeller is driven by an engine
which operates the rear wheels of the
vehicle AZ well as the air-screw.
The advantages of the invention are
that 1t causes the motor car to light
ly skim over soft ground at q speed
Of 80 miles an hour; the tired wheels
Of the vehicle do not dig into soft soil,
for they brush lightly over 1t, as
they do not have to grip the earth
to force the car on its path; when
the aero-motor hits q small hillock or
bump 1t literally flies through the
air, q few inches above the ground,
and at top speed 1t travels in Sc
ries of leaps like q kangaroo. For
many years motors driven by air-pro-
pellers have been popular in France,
and they have been used to a large
extent by sportsmen.

Owing to the war it is no longer posi-
BILE to secure potash for fertilizer pur-
poses, as it all practically comes from
Germany, and much mari is being
carted through Moorestown. The mari
pits, until the war, had become a thing
Of the past, but are now re-opened
Refuse salt is also being used for fertilizer
and the Moorestown Grange received q
carload Of the same last week. Potash
has advanced wonderfully in price.
One farmer near Moorestown sold two
bags of potash last week for $1O7, which
about two years ago cost him $18. In
ton lots it is bringing as high as $500
normally selling from $40 to $40 a ton.

Senator Walter E. Edge, Of Atlantic
county, has announced his candidacy
tor the Office OF Governor Of New Jersey
He has issued statement defining his
position in which he says he had hoped
that he might not have been pushed
into this contest until the present SEES
sion Of the Legislature had been COM
apleted. But other aspirants are at work,
circulating petitions and advocating
their claims and he felt, in response to
the demands OF his friends, that he
would not be acting out of tho way IL he
came out at once.
Senator Edge feels that there is o
reasonable sentiment favorable to his
candidacy and he also feels that his SER
vice in the Legislature has given him
an insight into the needs of this state,
to which be will devote his entire atten:
tion. He says:
It is my belief that no man should
be an aspirant for Governor without a
clear and definite program, nor without
being prepared to take the public into
his confidence in this and other respects.
My activity in the Legislature has
been directed with the hope that could
zee New Jersey real business propo-
sition with the main responsibility OF
the Governor being that of conducting
the affairs of the state with all the OPP
portunities for good, rather than the
mere filling of few offices, seemingly
Lis most important accepted function.
IT shall make every effort To meet the
intervening before the Primaries. and to
frankly detail to them what / hope to
accomplish in their interest through a
business administration Of state affairs. .

Many instances have been quoted Of
the ingenuity of the schoolboy and
the college man In answering exam
nation questions In foreign languages,
but seldom has hard-pressed under
graduate displayed the inventive gen.
ius shown by Henry w. Savage when
his knowledge of French was put to
the test in Partisan cafe some years
ago. According to George AIDE, who
was with him at the time, Savage
prides himself on his French. He had
Just succeeded by dint of the most In
tense sort of concentration In ordering
those copper-colored oysters known to
the habitues of Paris as being among
the oldest inhabitants. Then. flushed
with victory, he rashly decided to fol-
low up his success by ordering some
horse-radish. The French word for
'horse-radish" had completely escaped
his memory. Nothing daunted, he be-
came at once logical and ingenious.
Horse is cheval," said he to AIDE,
"and red is rouge all right, but I'm
damned II can remember the French
word for fish,"

Political Notes

Joseph R. Sisom, of Mount Holly, has
been appointed by Governor Fielder to
succeed John J. Mcdonald as one of the
Democratic members of the County
Board Of Elections. Mr.. Sisom has for
a long time been one of the most active
Democrats in this county and has long
been entitled to recognition by his
party.
Early in February the members of the
Legislature will meet in joint session to
elect state treasurer, and unless all
signs fail Senator William Il. Read, of
Camden, will get the plum. There
seemed to be disposition on the part of
Essex county statesmen to secure this
position for man from their section.
In fact every Office of any account seems
to them to be their particular proper
/ ty, but the South Jersey members have
awakened and decided they would have
some say in the matter. At the opening
of the session there were indications of
combination between Davy Baird, of
Camden, and Alfred Dalrymple, of Es-
sex, in order that things might be
worked out to the satisfaction of the
! leaders in the state, but when Essex be-
gan to want it all Davy baked, and it
now looks asif Essex will haye to fight
for all she gets.
Senator Walter E. Edge, of Atlantic
county, has announced that he will be
candidate for Governor. 1t is too early
! to predict what the result will be in the
Gubernatorial contest, as there are likely
to be candidates from many sections of
the state. 1t is thought by many that
Senator Edge will not have much show
| because former Governor Stokes will be
a candidate for United States Senator,
and it is not thought that both candi-
dates will come from South Jersey, but
that will be as the majority of the Re-
publican voters decide on primary day.
