also for washing machines. electric
ironers, vacuum cleaners, water sys.

thrashing. milking. feed grinding
churning, cream separating and any
other farm work possible.
If this idea is found to be correct it
will perhaps prove one Of the biggest
possibilities ever placed before the
modern farmer. 1t will show a way
out of the present dilemma-how to
provide power line electric service on
the farm at cost which would make
It economically justifiable to both
farmer and power company.
Great Cooperative Enterprise
The cooperating interests making
the present investigation propose to
operate experimental rural transmits.
sion lines in about thirty states.
Assistance in developing new meth
DDS of using electricity on the farm
and Of improving present devices will
be rendered this undertaking by re-
search laboratories, such as that OF
the General Electric Company. This
will aid in solving the main problem
from another approach. If the funda-
mental principle set up by the theory
described is found to be sound.

cussed particularly the factors which
make it dificult to furnish the farmer
with electric energy as cheaDly as 1t
can be provided for the city and town
user.
Zone mile of city distribution line
ordinarily serves from thirty 20 one
hundred customers said DR.. Neff
But one mile OF distribution line in
farming districts usually serves only
three customers. 1t can be readily
seen. therefore. that power company
can serve city customers more cheap
" than rural customers.
"But If farmers can use electricity
for every possible farming purpose 1t
seems likely that rural rates can be
made so cheap that no farmer can af-
ford to be without electric service,
and every farmer can afford to have
it. It is TO prove or disprove this fact
that the present investigation is be-
ing made"
To Put Theory to Test
This theory of securing electric
service for farmers on a reasonable
cost basis by electrifying the entire
farm at the outset has many support
. ers. They are seeking, by the survey
now proposed, to take the proposition
out of the realm of theory and to es-
tablish 1t as a fact.
II their theory is upheld then 1t will

Electric lights on Farm Not Enough
so TAR as expense is concerned, if
farmers use it for as many operations
on the farm as possible, instead of
merely having electric lights or cleo
trio fans. and stopping there.
This point has been emphasized
with the utmost earnestness by those
seeking to make electric energy avail
able for the farms OF America through
the transmission lines OF the power
com panies. The interested agencies
are several. They include the Ma

United States Department Of Agricul-

OH YOU HARD CIDER!
DISREPUTABLE THEN AS NOW

Capt. Irven Travis showed the
Democrat q bunch of copies of The
Rough Hewer, devoted to the sup
port Of the Democratic principles of
Jefferson" and which was published
at Albany, n. Y, in 1910 The
paper was found in the effects of
the late Roswell Whipple who was
the father of Mrs. Travis. A front
page announcement stated that it
was to be published nine months,
commencing Feb 20, 1S40. 1t was
gotten out during the time of the
thard cider campaign" in which
VIM. II. Harrison was the Whig can
didate for the presidency.
Following are two short para
graphs which we copy from The
Rough Hewer:
"The Albany Journal, the federal
state paper, copies from the Balti-
more Patriot, letter from a feder-
al politician of Raleigh, N. c., a
part of which reads: This state is
safe for Harrison. Our friends are
in high spirits, and disputing about
the majority. They have just com
pleted a very large log cabin in this
town, and last night dedicated it
with hard cider"
'At barn raising in Gorham on
the Sd inst, vote was taken, which
stood thus: For Van Buren and De-
mocracy, 25; for Harrison and hard
cider 8. Hard cider is no go among
the yeomanry."
Another gem we noticed was: "a
countryman, Democrat, was selling
barrel of hard cider to a Whig the
other day The Whig insisted on
tasting the cider before he bought
it, which the farmer refused, telling
him, as he was taking old Tip for
president, without knowing his po-
litical opinions. he must carry out
the principle, and buy hard cider
without tasting it,"
Listen to this: "A certain Whig
of our acquaintance undertook to
take a drink of hard cider in the
dark, the other night, and got hold
of bottle of Stephens writing
fluid. He never discovered his mis-
take till his friends observing him
in the morning SO confounded blue,
asked him if the presidential cleo
tion was over"

w. d. Adrian ont Of Jail

Last Saturday afternoon W. ".
Adrian. d. c., was released from the
county jail, his friends having raised
the necessary amount of money for
his fine. 1t will be recalled that III
October he was arrested and found
guilty in the mayors court OF prac-
ticing. limited branch of medicine,
namely chiropractic, without a
state medical license. He was given
a fine of $500 and costs, making IN
all $311.80. In default of payment
of fine he was sent to jail.
When a new mayor took office
the first of the year, he ordered
Adrian released This the sheriff
refused to do, and habeas corpus
proceedings were instituted, with
the result that the court held that
after the mayors sentence had been
put into execution, it could not be
changed by the mayor. Soon after,
his friends got busy and raised the
necessary amount to effect his re-
lease from jail. AT the time
of his release he had served
103 days, for which he was allowed
soc per day, his credit for such
amounting to $6180. The difference
between this sum and the fine and
cost assessed by the mayor is $780,
80 which was paid by Adrian's
friends.
The law is, that the money paiu
goes into the fund of the state medi-
cal board.

THE GOLDEN EAGLE HERE
TO TAKE FLIGHT SATURDAY

The Golden eagle caught last
week by e. E. Richardson of East
Bloom, and which has since been on
tin shop, has attracted much atten
ton. Hundreds of persons have
called to see this beautiful speci-
man of the King Of birds, which is
SO rare, especially in this locality
For few days it refused to eat
but finally came to it's appetite. The
writer saw it devouring the larger
part Of a rabbit, and we got some
idea of its strength when it held the
rabbit under it's talons and with it's
teak tore the front leg off the rab-
bit with apparent ease, and swal
lowed the whole leg.
Mr.. Morris wrote to State Game
Warden Thompson, asking what he
should do with the eagle. He re-
ceived word back, to keep 1t on dis
play If he cared to, for IA few days.
and then to set it free. Mr. Morris
will have the bird at his shop until
Saturday, when at 2 p. M, he will
take the cage to the court house
steps and let it go. Those who nave
beel interested in this eagle, will be
curious to See the direction it takes
in its flight. This family of eagles,
the Golden, live high up in bleak
rocky mountains, and they arc said
to be rare in this country.
Last week was mentioned that in
the trap in which Mr. Richardson
caught the eagle, he had caught this
season also dog, two cats, an
opossum, o skunk. and four hawks.
