Western farm blowing matches preparations should be started holding of skilled contests More than As matches will be held in Saskatchewan in 1911 As in 1910. This is a most Gratifying not Only b cause any increased interest in Means of agricultural education makes news hut because the match is one Means. Over Birds Hill blowing match the value of these events has been very evident to Iii. A Man May buy a horse to Day. Followed with the result 15 bushels of wheat per acre. The next year this was sown to Oats a wet Harvest was ton ended with and some stocks sprouted badly. Tho however. I was Only is bushels per acre. The Many blowing fourth crop was Sci Liz and yielded for bushels per acre. Here you will note an upward trend in yields. The fifth ran very of the very Best bar Ley to the acre. I think any intelligent seeding was to Barley and Perso Here n will not fail to gather the Point for most assuredly that in Atli t because me crop should hardly have bean sown of the Best of a fallow would have looked like since we first visited the better farming though instead of the soil showing signs Wear it gave what on Ordinary stubble is really a very Hovav crop and of very Superior Grain.

Interesting article on the lines followed by the various experimenters and the results obtained from the London Why do plants look so astonishingly Ell after a thunderstorm the Var us experimenters who for 170 years ave been endeavouring to a y electricity to plants have Early been convinced that they in felted by something else than in rain which follows an elec ical discharge. Abbe Berthelon set p poles furnished with metallic Points be lightning conductors which were connected with barbed wire extended ver the plants he treated. Abbe Collet conducted his electricity direct j the roots. Apparatus for the no cation of atmospheric electricity to is still in this country Novice a tension of volts seems formidable. The apparatus can be managed by a boy but it is necessary to make sure from time to time that there is no interference with the proper discharge of electricity due to leakage Down Damp holes or to defective insulators. An installation of the simplest Type for experimenting on i from live to ten acres a Dynamo being 1 available would probably Cost about in the same conditions an installation for 60 acres might Cost per Imants in a Market Garden at bit i about a Complete outfit for 30 Garden by experimenters As certain senatorial ton raised the network to a height sufficient to allow farm carts to pass below it and Ordinary cultural operations to be carried on and in co operation with sir Oliver used an induction Coil connected through Lodge valves. Since .1906 my. Newman s experiments in association with sir Oliver and Lionel Lodge has been proceed ing on the land of Raymond Bomford near Evesham. A Large Farmer whose father was one of the first Agri Culler acres including engine Dynamo and shed would involve an expenditure of something like but an installation for twice the area would not Cost More than another there is a probability of the expense being de creased in the future. I the figures available As to wheat at Ever Slian grown on different for be moved the grown apparatus can Are As follows increase 33 per cent. Fife per cent. White Queen. 29 per cent.

But was t not in regard to this plan that lord Celvin asked whether the Benefit de ived by the plants might not be due the turning Over of the ground in her to Bury the plate Siemens vent to work on entirely new lines v providing plants with artificial Sunshine in the form of electric Light. He ingenious greenhouse experiments ,1 the late or. Thwaite in the same direction will be remembered. The swedish professor Lemstrom noting lie extraordinary growth of Barley in latitudes associated it with the electrical discharges of the far North and experimented by Means of the application of High tension electricity Tom a. Network of wires. As he was Able to use Only an Uncertain influence prob Lens of Bush be by prof Vlious network was close to his crops la method was not commercially Cable. The question of the electrification of crops made a considerable Advance however when j. E. New Man a Young electrical Engineer at Gloucester who had closely followed Lemstrom s work Aid carried on sex the continent. A great Deal in the investigation of the electrification has been Don j. H. Priestley of Bristol University who was recently encouraged by a Grant Frum the Board of agriculture and is today to read a paper on the present position of the subject before the banners club. The apparatus and results. With the increasing use of electricity in country districts the question of experimenting with electricity with a View to improving crops becomes a More practical one. Under the new Man Lodge system the wire is taken from the Dynamo to a shed in one of the Fields which Are to be electrified. This shed contains apparatus for transforming the electricity to High and also the vacuum valves. Was terribly afflicted with lame Back.

Some interesting observations have been made at a Verghan As to the posse. Bill Ltd of current Koiner Clown the wind. Or. Newman suggests in the Ger thai network Over the crops consists Man Experiment there was also a Short that electrification is injurious in con has the greatest effect. The electricity employed is positive plants give off negative electricity and sir Oliver Lodge s idea is that plants by electrification Are Able to give Oft More Nega Tive electricity. Obviously Massage cannot be substituted for food but electrification May have a toning effect. Applied at night the electrical discharge professor Priestley says is unable to give the Plant the Power to manufacture Carbo hydrate which it. Possesses in the Day time. Or. Binford As a practical Farmer thinks electrification adds nitrogen to the soil. An american investigator has certainly reported that the growth of the Micro organisms of the soil May be stimulated by Small currents. But while the discharge of electricity through the air in the process of electrification May be capable of producing chemical changes Ity the Atmos phere such As the formation of Ozone and oxide of nitrogen professor Priestley is understood to think that the Gratifying dark Green tint of electrified crops May be in in stances a delusive appearance Lilac trifled plants May assume a Darker Hue owing to their tendency to accumulate on their surfaces particles of Fine dust from the air.

Of a kind of Gridiron of wire supported from each pole with larger insula tors than those seen on Telegraph poles. The poles Are 70 Yards apart in the rows and 100 Hajj is apart Between the rows the thick Telegraph wire is extended Down the rows with thin wire encourage every 10 Yards. The thin wire is invisible 20 Yards off. There is a slight fuzz caused by the electrical discharge and in Ness of moisture.

With Truit the problem is hardly the. Same in the Case of the annual plants of farm or Market Garden. On the other hand fruit is a crop which May the evidence Cut.
