BROTHER PAULIN’S PLAN.

Hove a French Driest Fertilizes Fields Hy Electricity. Llectricitv has been utilized in France by Brother Paulin, a Catholic priest, in the promotion of the growth of vegetables and vines with decided success., It is not the electricity of the dynamo and battery that has done the work, but nature’s own, as generated in the atmosphere a slight distance from the earth by the meteorological phenomena of storms, rain and wind. The invention promises to be especially valuable for growing vegetables anrl fruits in the vicinity of large towns. A French paper gives particulars regarding this very promising discovery. The electricity is obtained by erecting a resinous pole forty or sixty foot in height, and higher, if possible, supporting an insulated galvanized iron rod, terminating at the top in five branches of copper. At the bottom this collector of electricity communicates with a system of iron wires spaced six feet apart, which distribute the fecun-

dating fluid throughout the whole extent of the arable soil to be influenced. In the accompanying picture the conducting wires are shown upon the surface of the earth in order to show their arrangement. In reality they are buried at such a depth as not to interfere with the work of culture. Such an insulation will last for several years. The apparatus operates as long as the wires withstand rust, and still permit the passage of the electric current. The apparatus is called the geomagnetifer. A height of Rfty feet is suitable for thirty acres.

The accompanist laid not a linger on key, but blinked through his spectacles at the lady. “What are you waiting for? ’ she asked in an exasperated undertone. “I am waitin’ for de abblause,” replied the pianist, “and he nod gom yet!”
