The speclal apparatus used in the recent electrification of an 80 acre farm | near Prague consisted of a mercury interrupter, a transformer and recti- | zh frequency was given by the interrupter, the transformer rais- | ed the voltage to about 100,000, and the | rectifiers separated the waves, passing the positive half to the network, the negative pole being connected to the ground. The continuous positive charge is necessary because the alternating cur- rent has no chemical effect on the soil. The net of iron wires, 13 feet above | the ground wae held on wooden poles with porcelain insulators, the main wires being about 100 yards apart,and the flne crosswires—a fiftieth of an inch in diameter—about ten yards. The current, applied several hours & day, was only about two amperes at 120 volts, This was cut off during rain, on account of the excessive amount of energy made necessary by the break- ing down of insulation, and during in- | | tense heat, when electric stimulation | was harmful to plants. | Though the last season was very dry, | the crops were large, in some cases double thess on similarly cultivated but non-eleotrified neighboring land. -eight years' faithful and | deveted servise (e eme famlly is the reeerd af a farm labeves, Daaiel Gem. breil, of Wiggie farm, Redbull, Eng. land, whe died this week, He was & typisal ppesimen of {he faithful elds fashiemed servant who asked fer nething but employment of his mase are now made easy with the With it you can dust, clean cad polish & the time it formerly took you to get ready to znd'vnd floor in it ~ == Besides, you do not have to get down on your handsand knees to dust under the bed or other hard-to-get-at places, or to stand on a chair to dust the top of the high All of the hard work is now made Mop.
