Electricity is to fin- fish ft. And the automobile is to accomplish to a large degree the disappearance of our best four- iuv.ed friend from certain of his familiar lines of eon, The processes which thus affect Whe usefulness @€ the horse are the same which have diverted the fuses of the human hand.

Did tm the progress of this machine age. By tmprovements and extensions in machinery ‘we have mate the working power of one American more than twice that of the average European. Here are some enlightening facts about the working of our machinery: A thousané paper bags are made tn forty minutes ey machine; by hand in six end one-half hours. In corn-shelling a thirty-stz minute job by machine would take sixty-six hours and forty minutes by hand. A mowing machine cuts grase seven times as fast a9 a hand-scythe. In the United States in 188 machinery run by 6,000,000 horse-power was doing, with the assistance of 4,476,004 persons, work that 94,000,000 men would have been needed for at hand labor, Tn the same year 9,00) locomotives were doing work that would have taken 67,940,230 horses or 147,425,990 men. It takes fewer workmen, these cays, to provide certain supplies for a given number of people, thanks to machinery, But, thanks to the same cause, there is a greater variety of things to sup- ply. Also, there are greater populations, with multiplied demands, and in new fields of labor come compensations for the crowding of men out of old ones. No more does the shoemaker laboriously nail, the heel to your boot with his hammer, A me- etune Goes the work in the time he used to occupy ‘n picking up his implement. No more need the woman in the modern kitchen shovel coal into cooks. A pressure on « button—and electric en- ergy does the rest. A great machine somewhere ‘as supplied the force. ‘Vet there is still need of shoemakers. There are more of them to-day than ever. Besides, there must be men to make the shoemaking machines. And as for the woman in the kitchen, the demand dor ber is unprecedented. Even the horse, with the trolley closing his path hn one way, finds easter life and honors where the pleasure driver or stockman calls him.
