The East ledisin Demand for Theist Railways and Rhenmatism-A 'Mello" Answering Applianee-Bribudiing Live Stock -Why Natives Bob the Telegraph Lines A few weeks ago the English electric - cal trade was staggered by an order from India for "the new machine which gives electrical shocks a,nd sends out sparks; is a magic lantern of sorts; can make any noise desired, and an ventril- oquize." The order had already been re-- ferred- to this couutry of electrical °dill - ties for executiore when it appeared that such a machine, playfully dubbed "the Electrolickedisonintoplittsapieine," had actually beau showu by n. tiumoreus electrician at various concet ts and en- tertainments. It consists of a big box, covering a trap door on the stage, and reirmouuted by forinideble switches an e funnels. into this mg box sundry mei' and boys inserted themselves for the purpose of emitting auy sound that struck their fancy; and veil a Gentian band blew its stentorian tune up the yawning trap. Then all th switches were thrown on at once, thun er was heard, 1 he tem blew up amid sparks and colored fires, and the apparently discomforted lecturer fled the stage incontinently. Some of the audience enjoyed the joke; the rest were hugely mystified. Mr. Edison had several such tricks at .the old Menlo.Park labor -41,4.e, and it is said that even the grave Nikola Tesla is not above a bit of fun with some of the literari and other celebrities • who pene- trate his workshop. It may be mentioned that there is a steady demand from East India for ali the latest electrical novelties. An elec- trical engineer now in New York mads a small fortune when the electric light fiist came out by going around India with a portable plant, with which he at- tended and illuminated all kinds of na- tive ceremouies and festivals. , Some of the Eurobean electrical p rs are gravely discussing the effect of elec- tric railways on rheumatism. The superstition is a lively oile here, and iu many places rheumatical subjects take their car cure quite regularly. Once or twice they- have been seen piecing Ferenc- ly in the towcars behind the motor cars, deriving great benefit from the play given their imagination, just as Die Charcot hypnotized Ins subjects by put- ting dummy wooden magnets in their hands,painted like real ones. „ The case is cited in England of one mane who suf- fered terribly until he went to work on an electrical line. It is auggested, how. ever, that the real reason probably- - is that he is now less exposed to damp and cold, and has leseohauce of getting w et aud tired. It is a Malin= fact that most users of electric light consume less currant their second month or quarter than thee do the Vint by learning how to keep down to -proper limits. This has been p oatcu- larey the case since the introduetion of electricity meters, and the gradual abolition of the old plan of flat rates. Tile result is that the light is obtained more efficiently and not Wasted. A jeweleidat Brighton, the Euglish water- ing place, desiring to make his store at- tractive at night, installed the electric liglit and tiotided the neighborhoud mot its rays. He was rather disappointed as to the yield, reduced the lighting to at least half, and arranged to light up extra lamps at different points whets a custom- er canie in and moved around to inspect goods. The customers were llattered by this special attentien, and good sales fellowed. hinny American stores are now made mote attractive and pleasant in summer hy having fan motors of a portable type, so that the customer is cooled off • wiiile buying goods, instead of being anxious to get out again iuto the [resit 'A novel plan of telephone exeliangee eperation leas lately been :put on trial in San Francisco, and is,pronou-uced by the exchange girls to be *just to� lovely for any thiug." A phonograph is placed in a shunt circuit in such a manner that when a subscriber insists on askiug several times in one minute for a !mintier repor.ed "busy," the ma- chine takes the place of the operator, and goes ou informing him with cheer- ful .alacrity and persistency that the line in question remains busy. At first the subseribers grumbled at this auto- matic method of furnishing redundant information, but they are said now to take it in good part, realizing that the actual, urgent work of tee exchange is expedited, and that the nerves and tem- pers of the girhe_are improved by relief awn the anuoyauce of sayiug the sante thing so often in a few seconds to no good •purpose.

Branding- live stock by electricity is not a new method, but of late the brand electric pursues the animal when dead as web as mien alive. For some time past hams have been branded electrical- ly in tilts country. The plan is to - hold the haiu against the brauding iron just a few seconds, and it is carried out very successfully, the work being extremely clean and rapid. In England resort is now being had to a similar method by the Wiltshire Bacon Curing- Corupany, which utilizes in the, daytime for its electric branding irons the current that is employed at night for liglitiug the factory. These branding irons 118'er change in temperature, as a steady cur- rent is on them all the: tirne. The jubilee of the telegraph this week has broughato light a naive aud ingeni- ous suggestion made by Prof. Morse when he started his famous line between Washington and - Baltimore along the Baltimore and alio Railroad, He pro. posed that if any break was seen in the line the passing, train should stop and everybody turn to as line repaireis, etich train to carry material for the purpose. If anybody was caught destroying the line a fine was to be imposed, to go into the podket of the local telegraph mana- ger as an incentive to watelifulness.. Morse went so far as to make sketches showing how this scheme should be put in force. The iron and copper wire of electric circuits has always been a great tetnp- cation to thieves, but in Western Aus- tralia the depredations extend also to insulators. The aborigines there have a weakness for the fine porceittiu knobs, which they chip iuto arrow heads of amazing fineness and sharpness with which they chase game and occasionally kill an unfortunate lineman. So sharp are these porcelain arrowheads that they seldom fail to go clean through the victim.

The Silo Has Como to Stay. I have used a silo for three years and it has proved a wonderful success. it enlarges the farmer's supply of succulent feed by curing corn and other crses for winter use. Most of the other crops used are hard dud of a woody nature. The silo cures so that- its conteme are seft an daunt os ti m es w a r tit and very pala- table for stock, especially mulch cows. Until this year I have put the corn in 4ie silo whole, but it was hard to get Oft. Last fail I borrowed a corn cutter ahd horse power, eut and drew it fronu. the mill and ran it through the machine, putting it hi the silo as fast as we did when the %vlole stalks were put in. It comes out easily and much nicer, and 'every feeding seems to cows like a warm meal to us. 1 plant the Pride of the N gill, the old. standard corn. It is one of the best kiuds to use in the silo. My business is furnishing milk to the creamery- the year rental. 1 am satisfied that for this purpose the silo is a great saving in grain and hay and a good milk produc- er. The silo does away with a great deal of work. Harvesting is all done at one time, the crop is not in the way and there is no worriment about its being moved, 1 tun starting- into the winter with 19 head of cattle aud three horsesand have been feeding- ensilage about three weeks, and the cows are cluing well. I feed about 2 qtr. of grain apieee to the new milkers. The coWs become uneasy at feeding time, they are so fond of the ensilage. I planted 2 hu. of corn for my crop and harvested about 50 tons. I am a farmer of moderate means and for that reason a number of neighbors questioned tue as to the wis- dom of building a silo, doubting if it would pay. I built mine and neighbers now also .intve them. The silo is a big thing for the dairyman and I believe It has come to stay. -H. C. Pettis, asia- waie Co., N.Y. Convenient Pig Troughs. When a pig comes to a trough for feed or slop he generally comes in a hurry, and is not content with plunging" his snout into it, but must thrust his fere feet into it also. If these are covered with mud and filth, as very often they are, this is -mixed with the feed or slop, and certainly cannot be very conducive to the health of the animal. It would be much better for the pig, and the eater thereof, if this should be prevented and the animal compelled to keep Itis dirty feet out of his It should be borne in mind that DEVICES FOR KEEPING TROUGHS CLEAN. the pig's neck is short. and that he can- not reach very far, and, therefore, his trough must neither lie high, wide, nor deep, aud it should be so platted that the bottom is oira level with his feet.
