MOTIVE POWER OF PROGRESS Prt Electricity Will Play in Future Development. B0UN3LESS ' FIELD FOR ENERGY l ahrnil Means of Applying Power to Do the Physical Work of the World A Cilowln .prospect. ATUANTA. Ga., March 11 The principal ddreos before the Southern Commercial copgreys today was delivered by George Wrutinuhouse, founder and former chief of the VVratlnahouse company of Pittsburg. His tuhjert waa Electricity in the Devel opment of the South." In part, he aaid: Notwithstanding our familiarity with the f.enl u.ies of electricity, few of im really comprehend ' how unlvrraa! and funda mental la the part which electricity la de Mined to ussume In the I fe cf future gener atlona. Nothing elae can convey, distribute nd appy power in a way which comparea with electricity From one dynamo can be taken the power of operating the telephone and the telegraph, the power for lighting, the power for operating afreet cars and railroad train, the power for operating mil and factorlea and mlnea. the power for electro-chemistry, the power for heat ing. Klertrlctty la a universal means of applying power fir doing the physical work of the world. It Is effective, not only in the application, but In the production of power. l.ea coal la required for produc ing electric power on a Imne scale than la require when many Individual englnea of smaller aise are iued. Water powers which otherwise would be unavailable are made useful for supplying power to distant cities, and even a mill located at a water power will give better service when It usee the electric drive. Electricity affords a simpler, better way of doing tilings with which we are familiar, and It also makes rn.-sih! new methods e"1 new develop ments which, without it. would be Impossible. With electric power the mill can draw Ita energy from any stream within a ra dius of 100 miles or mote; It may be lo cated on high and healthful ground, on the outskirts of an established town or city where labor is plentiful and transportation fallltles are the lien. In the plan and design of the mill Itself, there Is no longer the ne entity of ar anglng buildings and machinery to be operated from great belts and long shaft ing taking power from a single aoime; but Individual motors In each department, or on each machine or loom, enable the whole plant to be laid out so us to give ei-oneniy In construction, rnenlnce In handling materials, and ensure the eafety and health of employes, thus securing a freedom and an excellence which Is Im possible without elet trtclty. The oppreive lust of the summer months In the south can be made toler able by cooling devices and fans operated by electricity, and electric heaters, which are always ready for Instantaneous ser vice, can be vised during the short Inter vals In the winter when artificial heat I necessary for comfort or health. . at tew ( foal Reeoareea. Furthermore, the use of electricity will conserve the coal deposits of the world for those Industrial processes In the per formance of which It may always be an indispensable element. To Illustrate what a conservator of the coal resources of the country waterpower may prove, I will only mention that to produce for ten hours each day from coal , the 5,000,0ii0 horaepower which may be developed from southern waterpowera, Would require, with the moBt efficient kinds of. engines, not less than 25.0nO,OU) tons of coal annually. If there were no waterpower available, methods would be adopted for producing power and conaervlng beat, which would effect a sav ing of over one-half of the coal now con sumed In the world. Here is a field for agitation against waste of our natural re sources surpassing all others in import ance. Opportunities In the Sooth. The industries most likely to be developed and to Increase because of peculiar suit ability to conditions now existing In the south are textile mills, fertilizer work, cement plants, coal, iron, copper and gold mining, ore reduction plants, Iron and steel mills, agricultural Implement work can ning factories, road building, furniture manufacture, lumber plants, paper mills, xhoe and leather factories and oil re fineries, In all of which Industries electric power Increases production. Tho south abounds in coal and iron as well as other metals, which can be cheaply mined. Owing to the presence of impur ities In the iron ore, especially phosphorus, the pig irons produced In the south have not been considered so suitable for steel manufacture as those made from the purer ores of the north. The electric furnaces for refining steel, which have been recently developed and quite extensively used, will make available the lren resources of hc south In the production of the hlph grades of steel, and it is no stretch of Imagina tion to forsee that the south will become a large producer of the raw material, ami throiiKh the cheapness of its labor it will be able to turn these materials Into finished products. At th'.' same time the slag by- to product of blast furnaces will remain be used for fertilizing purposes. Klertrlctty on the Farm. In 190i-7 some experiments were made in Kngland with the co-operation of Sir Oliver Lodge, the eminent Knglish scientist. In the stimulation of plant "growth by elec tricity. It has been frequently observed that plant growth is stimulated by electric llRlit, and numerous experiments have been made having for their object the stimula tion of the soil by the apfi ication of elec tric current. The experiments reported by Sir Oliver Lodge In a privately printed brochure on "Klectrlclty In Agriculture" are briefly as follows: Two tracts of land about twenty acres each were similarly sown or planted. On half of this land poles with insulators were erected to support the electric wires, only one pole per acre being required for the purpose. The electricity required was pro duced by a small dyji'amo driven by a two-horse power oil engine and was trans formed to a tension of about 103.000 volts of very high frequency. The experiments, which extended over several years, gave remarkable results, an increase of from 30 to. 40 per cent being secured In wheat crops grown on the electrified plot, as com pared with the crop produced on the un electrifled plot. Moreover, the electrified wheat was of a better milling and baking quality and sold at a considerably higher price than that grown on the unelectrlfied plot. Similar experiments with straw berries, mangolds, tomatoes, cucumbers, beets and carrots ehowed equally remark able results. One-year strawberry plants showed In one instance SO per cent Increase and more runners produced, while with five-year plants the Increase was 3t pel cent. In writing to me on this subject in re sponse to my request, in order that I might make a reference to it In this address, Sir Oliver Ltklge suggested that the results attained in the experiments referred to greatest capital was the c.pcilcni-e anl and in others' would justify an elaborate 1 skiil acquired from tin- oppoi t'.mliy jdvon series of experiments. These experiments I me when I was jouhh to work with all Kinus or machinery. couiii"Ct later with lessons In that discipline to wliiuh a sol- the ac to c.i ri y could be usefully undertaken at the sta tions under the control of the Agricultural department. i diet- is required to submit, and An explanation given for the excitation 'U'lremcnt of a spirit of rcaiiln. of vegetation by these high tension cur rents is that high-frequency electrical dis charges favorably affect the deposit of the nitrogen .In the atmosphere Into the soil, upon which deposit vegetation so largely subsists. Whatever prevents disease and ensures health contributes not only to man's hap piness, but also to his efficiency, and it appears that the electric current Is to play a very Import part In this field.

"It Is well known tbat in amio.t evry up-to-date city of Hie country similar plana are today being given serious con sideration. Some 'jltlc8 have gone so far as to decide on very complehensive pians for civic beauty, to be worked uit tit, ring a series of years. Some cities, like Cleve land and several Pacific coast towns hav practically carried to completion the civic center Idea of bcautifirailun at great cost.

Mr. t'ralg says his plan as outlined may not be r. allied within any reasonable term of iiu i. but be feels sure that as the spirit of the iiiuveiutal takes hold on the minds of the people every city like Omaha will do some work along the line of civic bcautiflcation. lie believes that at this particular point In Omaha there is oppor tunity at this time to make a beginning at a less cost than will ever be possible later on.
