Marvellous Electric Power.

The tremendous, almost incOnceiv-
able possibilities Of electric power are
strikingly brought out In a giant mo-
tor recently built for use in Pennsyl-
vania steel mills. This motor is the
biggest In the world. 1t develops 15,-
000-horse power. While the motor is
of an impressive bulk, 1t could be cas-
lily inclosed in a medium sized room.
Some idea of the concentrated eff
cheney of electric power is realized
when one thinks Of how many acres
would be covered by the $1,000 horses
whose work equivalent it can tireless-
ly produce.

SECURING PURE COTTONSEED
Best Results Obtained by Ginning
Early In Season or Waiting Until
Rush ls Over.

Cotton growers who wish to main
tain the purity Of their seed can OBJ
tain best results either by ginning very
early in the season or after the rush
Of the season is over, when the gtnner
can take greater care.
It is practically impossible to main
tain the purity of seed without the CO.
operation of the ginner, and 1t Is I'M
reasonable to ask him to delay his
regular ginning work and keep other
patrons waiting.

HARD TO COMBINE LEeHoRNs
Fowls Are Light and Fly Hioh-Where
Chickens Are Confined Heavier
Fowls Are Best.

Leghorns are light birds and fly high.
On this account it is difficult to keep
them confined.
On places where the chickens are to
be confined heavier birds will be more
satisfactory, besides when a fowl is
wanted for the table the heavier birds
supply the most meat.

BEST SEASON FOR PLANTING
Good Plan to Begin Work as Soon as
Ground Can BE Prepared-Seed
Want DeterIorate.

The best plan is to plant as soon as
the season arrives and the ground is
prepared.
Even when the amount of moisture
seems insufficient to terminate the
seed it will be best to plant generally,
as the seed is not apt to deteriorate
in the ground. Then as soon as 1t
rains the plants may germinate ard
begin growth promptly.
