straw as an emergency nutrient ration. The
scheme is to grind the material into a very

this out on the patient pig. Trying it on the
pig was giving the benefit Of the doubt to the
straw as this animal is due 20 respond favor

:hc average reader or hearer has very vague
and indefinite idea Of the meaning OF these
terms Owing to the similarity OF the two,
electricity may be likened to water in a pipe.
The number Of volts or electromotive force
is the force that tends to make current of
electricity flow through a wire, lamp or
motor. 1t is the pressure, and as we speak Of
the water supply pressure at the faucet being
thrty-five or fifty pounds, etc, so with cleo
tricity we speak of the pressure as 10 or 100

The amperc is the unit of rate of flow and
may be likened to the cubic feet per second,
or gallons per minute, of the water supply
and designates the volume of the stream with
respect to time. In water system the size
of stream may vary with the pipes, while
with electricity the number OF amperes de-
notes the size. Thus an electric iron, toaster
