CONQERS SUN; PUT
FLOWERS TO SLEEP
EXPERIMENTS SHOW REST
CAN BE REGULATED AND
SUBJECT MADE TO MATURE.

NEW YORK-Scientists today an
Inounced the successful completion OF
experiments conducted by the West
inghouse Electric Manufacturing Co.
in collaboration with Columbia uni
versity, which demonstrated that with
artificial light they could put flowers
and vegetables to sleep and awaken
them at will, releasing them from the
dominance of the sun.
Hereafter there need be no flower
famines on national holidays, such as
the two million dollar shortage in the
lily crop last Easter day, nor for a
dearth of hot-house vegetables because
of continuous sunless days.
Mature Vegetables Earlier.
The electric company announced its
findings at the conclusion of months
Of tests in electrically lighted hot
houses at Columbia university and at
Baldwin, L. |. There, they have been
able, by using electric lights develop
ing an intensity one-fourth that of the
a predetermined time and to mature
vegetables in from two to three weeks
less time than normal.
Inc speeding up Oh vegetable
growth is accomplished by the install
lation of overtime" in the hot-hous-
es The plants are permitted to sleep
for an hour after shutdown, as the ex-
perimenters described it. They get an
hours repose, then the electric lights
are turned on and the flowers absorb
the artificial light and heat as readily
as they do the suns rays.
Effect Like That of Suns.
For FIVE hours this process of en-
forced growth goes on. Then the
lights are dimmed and the plants per
mitted to snatch a bit of rest before
the sun comes out to start them
working again.
Carnations, lilies, peoples, dahlias
asters and roses respond to this treat
ment, the scientists declared If the
sun hides for day or two the electric
lights are substituted. Vegetables, they
say, can be transplanted from the seed
weeks before the sun usually attains
sufficient warmth to keep them alive
and their maturity is corresponding1y
early.
