American farmer used patent mower.

before their Ktirupenii contemporaries
lu the same Held of labor had put aside
scythe, rake ami flail, the possibility
of Introducing electric power In frm
work waa first recognised lu the OKI
World.
This haa probably beeu due to the
fact that the farmer of America,
thrifty and far-seeing, recognising the
economy and reliability of the small
oil euglue, failed to perceive how any
iwvtng could be effected by generating
electric current and distributing to Its
tutors In outlying position.
When, however, the mains from some
large electric power company t"-,i
In reach of a farm or estate the condi
tions are much more favorable, and
this atate of thin must already exist
in a measure which will be largely ex
tended lu the future. Current Uertn;in
newspapers contain au Interesting ac
count of the application of electricity to
a group of farms in Saxony. The elec
tric current is brought from au adja
cent town by overhead wires en.-rlod
on wooden poles. Two reeelvliu sta
tions are arranged, from which the eKv
trlclty Is distributed to the farm build
ing and to convenient positions 'it the
fields for the purpose of driving thresh
'tig and other machinery.
Sixteen fixed electric motors are In
atalled for chaff and root cutting, oat
rruxhlng. pumiug and for operating
machinery used In the manufacture of
potato spirit. lu addltl.xi to this -er
equipment, alx portib'e motors arc
provided, which may he used for driv
ing punjjn. circular saws, threshing ma
chinery, and so forth, at any iwlnt
where their servl-vs are required. The
bouses and bulliliiig on the farms are
all lit by electricity, 9 ar- limps and
alKJUt USX) glow lumps being used for
'he purpose.
It must be pointed out. however, that
this example could only lie foil-mod In
the United States en a very large e .tie
or a group of adia vm ?jthi. and It is
doubtful whether Molt a scheme innld
be made a commercial sus-es f-r the

The Maine luw regulating the sale of
agricultural seeds requires that grass
seed shall be sold under a guarantee as
to purity. Bulletin 1TSS of the Maine
agrbultural exjierltiieut station, which.
doubtless, many of your reader have
received, gives analysis of the seeds
which were collected by the inspector
and tlKe sent, to the experiment sta
tion by correspondence In 1!!. The
dealers are very generally conforming
to the law and the purity of most seeds
is now guaranteed. The question nat
urally arises lu the mind of a fanner.
should a wed be strictly pure, and, If
not, how nearly pure should It be?
The purity of seed varies greatly
with tltetr ltlnd. It I possible to grow
tPnotb-T seed so clean that It shall car
ry practically no foreign weed seeds.
It Is not as easy to grow any of the
other grasses or clovers so clean. There
Is no need for the sower to ever buy
timothy sjhhI that Is much less than
"115 per cent pure. Samples have been
examined by the station the present
year which contained not a single tor
