The financial district Of London is
called the City with a capital &C"
The financial editor of a newspaper is
the City editor. Bankers and brok-
ers are City men. Government bonds
are consols. Promisory notes are bills.
Check is spelled cheque. A depositor
draws a check, not upon his bank
but upon his bankers.
The Herald writer appends a list
of British p~eculiarities in the pro-
nunciation Of proper names: Baden
Powell is Bayden-Pole. Beachamp
is Beecham, Beaulieu is Bewly, Carew

Colclough is Cokely, Cowper is Coop
err, Crichton is Cryton, Forester is
Foster, Hawarden is Harden, Knollys
is Noles, Mainwarning is Mannering,
and Marjoribanks is Marshbanks.
In what may be termed the liter.
airy language of both countries there
exist but few differences. The real.
ly good authors Of America write
surprisingly like the really good au,
thors of Britain. except for the fact
that polish and fluent grace is some
what more common among the Brit
ishers. a condition which is often at.
tributed to the Britishers greater de.
votion to the classics.

the federal authorities have taken this
attitude. Naturalization is a process
defined and regulated by the United
States government. No essential fea.
ture, or anything which might be con-
strued as an essential feature, may be
added TO or subtracted from the pro-
ceeding. AS the bureau OF naturaliza-
ton explains it, it is quite possible
that a certificate of naturalization diff
fering from that granted by the
United States might be put to illegal
uses by INSCRIPTIONS persons; also
that such a certificate might be con-
strued by ignorant persons as confer
ring upon them unusual rights. 1t
would be, in short, both illogical and
unsafe to allow any state to establish
an individual procedure connected
with a piece Of federal business.
The intent of the legislators who
voted for the measure was good; the
furtherance of patriotism was unques-
tionably the end sought. But it's fail
ure to function emphasizes one more
instance of hastily considered legis-
lation. 1t is discouraging to realize
how much of the law making body's
is wasted either in carrying
through such measures or in defeating
them. And d~iscouraging also to think
how much really constructive legisla-
ton it is impossible to effect, while
the trivial and unsound in many in
stances gets the favor of the law
makers.
Work that must be undone is expen-
sive work, even though we insist on
paying our Legislators the lowest pos
sible price for their time. Fair salar-
les and efficient results is the founda-
ton stone of private business
would it not work as we'll in public
affairs.

ELECTRIFIED M

News stories concerning the estab-
lishment Of a model electrified farm
in Sweden as an experiment 10 show
how practically every farming opera
ton can be more economically done
by electricity than by horse power
was read with special interest by the
farmers OF South Dakota. because
they, too. can see visions of a future
where farms will be electrically oper-
ated. With the probable endorsement
by the voters next fall of the great
hydro-electric power project on the
Missouri river, which will supply the
state with electric power at a cost
OF but a few cents per kilowat, a more
general use of electricity on the farm
will become common as the power
lines will be stretched to all parts of
the state.
OF closer interest TO the people OF
Brookings is the plan OF the agricul.
tural experiment station at State col
legt to make experiments in electri.
fled farming along the same line as is
being done in Sweden. The plans
for this farm have taken definite
shape and were outlined at the last
meeting of the South Dakota Academy
of Science which was held in Brook
ings.
The project in Sweden is discussed
as follows in the Sioux City Journal:
THE Swedish government has been
requested to establish a model cleo
trified farm to be located, if possible,
lear Stockholm.
In view of the fact that more than
one-third of agricultural Sweden is
the model farm be as nearly 100 per
cent electrically operated as possible
so that the Swedish farmers, who are
now is a position 10 change horse
for electric power, may be enabled
10 view demonstrations of how white
coal" can be utilized in the country.
THE request for the electrified
model farm comes from the National
Association for Electrification of Rural
Sweden. In its communication 10 the
government this body points out the
necessity for training Swedish farm
ers in making use OF electrical power.
IL proposes that farm identification
be made a special subject Of study at
the agricultural schools and colleges
OF the country.
1T is proposed that the model farm
be fully equipped with all the latest
electrical agricultural devices, so that
the farmers may see electrically oper-
ated plows, harrows, seeders, harvest
ers and threshing machines. Motors
Of different sizes will drive the milk
separators and the churn. The new
electric device which passes an cleo
trio current through an ensilage Of
cattle fodder to increase its nutritive
value is to be shown.
There is very little heavy labor on
Swedish farms, heretofore performed
by man or beast, which machines oper-
ated by electric current cannot do, and
more than a third of the Swedish farm
ers IAN operate their farms by cleo
tricity IL they understand the elemen-
tary principals Of electrical science.
Naturally the agricultural population
needs considerable training before full
advantage can be taken of the wonder
fully cheap power furnished by the
many waterfalls and rapids which have
been harnessed."
