It it proposed to utilize electri
city tor cooKing and heatinir in
private houses. Machines for the
purposes have alriady been con
trived. It is estimated that ninety
meals for a family of ordinary nize
can be cooked in this way at a cost
of $fi.57 For the house heating four
machines each doing the work of
ordinary stove, can be maintained
for about $0.40 per month, making a
bill of $12 or $Ki per month for
the cooking and heating- This
amount seems moderate, while the
accompany advantages would be
great. This method would obviate
niucn labor in handling coal,
would lessen dust, and save time
tiow spent in kindling fires. It is a
reform in household economy that
seems unite practicable, and its
Realization would be hailed with
eat satisfaction.

thei following experience in corn
raising: He planted :i." acres May

and south with a check now plant

ance he found it was not a good

happened him, and which had
proved successful, he proceeded to
plant on June 6th another planting

direction of the first, or east or west
He gave this corn three plowings
and in the fall paid a man for gath
ing by the bushel, it yielded him
!1 bushels and 4 pounds per
acre. Mr. Igo says, he attributes
the large yield to the fertilizing
properties of the pollen which

on it different neriods. be.
cause of the dilTerence in time of

indicate that an inferior stand of
corn from first planting is not a
misfortune. It would be well for

THK NIGHT TO I'Korosi-;
From bomloti Truth
What surprises me, considering
the vast number of ladies who
preach the equality of the wex in
everything, is that an effort is not
made to secure equal rights in
proposing. To marry is more im
portant to a woman than to have
a vote, why, then should proposing
be limited to one sex? Men are
naturally more bashful than women
and the result of , the present one
sided rule is that many a man
remains single because he can
not bring his courage up to the
proposing point, and, as a necessary
consequence, many a girl remains
liusbandless. An association of
girls, each pledged to propose to
any man whom she might deem a
desirable husban, would be far
more practical than an anti-crinoline
society.

ABOUT WATER POWER.

Interesttitf Fat t.
Mr. O. W. Crow-ford, secretary of
the national real estate association
in an interview in the World-llcrahl
said: "On the last day of the Muf.
falo meeting the convention visited
the great water power tunnel at
Niagara Falls.
I have been making a study of
water powers, their use and their
value. Gothenburg's is not the
only one I have examined. First I
went to Niagara Falls.
The richest men in America are
there spending millions of dollars
on one plant. They expect to de
velop only 100,(100 horse power. It
has taken several years as well as
several million of dollars. At Nia
gara Falls there are not enough of
factories, in fact, or in comteinpla
tioi; to use any considerable
part of 100,000 horse power. The
only hope of immediate or early
profit from selling power must
come from the demand of mills,
factories, street car, light and other
power-using riant in Ihilfalo.
Cheap reliable power will cer
tainly attract manufacturing plants
Hut I found these owners if the
Niagara water power were con
tracting to d -.diver power in Ihilfab.
twenty-four miles away, a half
cheaper than it could possibly fie
made by steam.
ltulfalo en joys ns cheap coal as
any large city in the union, but the
Niagara water power is so cheap
that compctiou with it is imposi
ble. There is no new principle invol
ved in the plant at Niagara
Falls. It is simply water falling on
a turbine wheel. The new thing
about it is conveying the power of
electricity from the wheel to the
mill, or car line, or factory in Hie
village, or to lhilfalo. There is no
uncertainty about it, and no possi
bility future exists.
If additional proof were needed
to prove Ihe certain future and al
lium inestimable value of water
powers, it would be found in the
fact that the same company lias
secured tne privilege on the Cana
dian side of the falls mid will put
in a larger plant there at once, f

whore the entire amount paid rur
power by every power-using estab
lishment in the place, will not pay
one-tenth of 1 per cent, on their in
vestment, they must be convinced
that their power can outstrip steam
in cheapness. They must also be
lieve that it will attract factories
and mills, or be trausiuitable to
Hulfalo. The fact is that they be
lieve all three of these propositions
A gentleman of my acquaintance
l i , W L 1
owneu a nio-norse water tower in
Wisconsin. It cost him about $." n
year to make a UX)-horse power a
day. He sold it for $4ll,(XH) and now
tells ie he has an occupation for
life, viz: abusing himself for his
shortsighedfness.
There is no chance for uncertainty
about water power. Who ever heard
of water turning around and going
uphill? It never gets tired. It is
not eren a respector of Sunday, ami
works at night just as cheaply as by
day.
Klectricity l.as made power by
water power places an article you
can buy like calico- by the yard, as
it were, Suppose you have a mill
that requires ixty horse power to
run it. ion can go over to the
water plant and order the superin
tendent to send you over sixty horse
power for ten days or a year. The
power plant superintendent sends
it over on a wire. .You use it and

i left Gothenburg yesterday. The
weather there like spring. Farmers
are sowing spring wheat. There are
$rwn worth of brick buildings now
going up in the town and prepara

was told.
There is not an empty house in
the place and many house have sev

Hoom'r No, sir; there is no boom
about it. You can buy a lot to build
on for as little as $7." and on almost
any terms. The company who owns
the water power, loans money to
build with. Write the commercial
club, it will give vou all infnr.

If you have a friend in the laun
dry business tell him to go out
there at once. 1 wanted some
washing, and they said they would
have to semi it away to have it done

Tllh FAK'Ml. I'S AMI Tlil-.IN 1 K'l K.N 1 is
The man selected tnr in xt .-ci te
tary of agriculture, Mr. J. Steiling
Morton, seems to have some very
intelligent notions wich regard to
the interests of the farmers. They
are sadly in need of protection
against their alleged friends, he de
clares, coupled with more educa
tion facts and principles of politi
cal economy. In other words, he
i thinks their greatest danger lies in
their tendency to adopt the crude
and frantastic theories of reform
ers who are principally desirous to
dissatisfy them with their occupa
tion for political purposes. During
recent years they have been filling
their heads with sophistries and
delusions, to the serious deiriment
of their chances of prosperity. Thei r
motives good, generally speaking
but theit knowledge of the
questions involved in the controv
ersy that they have inaugurated is
defective and inaccurate. They
have been persuaded to believe that
the raising of corn and wheat, and
the fattening of hogs and steers,
can lie carried on only by the aid of
arbitrary and discrininating legis
lation. The books that they read
and the speakers to whom they
listen tell them that the laws are
inimical to agiculture, and that the
only way for them to thrive is to
insist 1 1 1 i 1 1 having a complete
reversal of the present system of
dealing with public matters. This
is foolish, of course, but they an
mostly sincere in their lolly, and
1 1 1 o only curejtor il is bet ter concep
tion of simple and unchangeable
truths.
It is impossible to rsliniate the
harm that has been done by the
desseniiiiation and acceptance of
these false impracticable doctrines,
'''hey contain just enough plausi
bility to (lei-eve, the average citizen
tloes not stop to -dudy them dandy
and rationally. There is not a
single one of them that will stand
the test of log'eal and unprejudiced
examination. Th" farmers adopt
them because th"y seem to pi otnis '
an artificial invalidation of an
easier way to make a living than
the ol l-lashioued one of honest in
dustry and patient economy. Thev
iglK re the fad.iliar and flindemen
tal fact that the value of their pro
ducts is adjusted by influences over
which the lawmakers have no con
trol e. The philosphy Ilia', is so at
tractive to them by reason of its
suggestions of increased profits
without the necessity of securing
them in the established ways ami
Under the prevailingcircumsrauces
can bring them only disappoint
ment and misfortune. They may
be sure that the affairs of the world
have not been managed for all
thee centuries in such a iiianner
as to make the tiller of the soil a
burden-bearer for the rest of man
kind. The laws operate upon ail
classe alike, ami all classes have
virtually the same opportunities of
grain and progress, if the farmers
are not receiving as much for their
labor as they deserve, the explana
tion is to be found in conditions
and relations that are a fixed part
of the scheme of civilization, and
not the invention of unfriendly leg
islaturs acting in the interests of
other people. It is to be hoped that
when Mr. Morton assumes the dut
ies of the office for which he has
been chosen he will labor to correct
these numerous and pernicious
view's, and to restore the agricul
tural mind to its former sanity up
on subjects of daily interest and
importance, (llobe Democrat.
