This book is designed primarily to give the farmer a practical workingknowledge of electricity for use as light, heat, and power on thefarm. The electric generator, the dynamo, is explained in detail; andthere are chapters on electric transmission and house-wiring, by whichthe farm mechanic is enabled to install his own plant without the aidand exp...
The sight of a dozen or so fat young horses and mares feeding andfrolicking on the wild range of the Southwest would probably inspirethe average farmer as an awful example of horsepower running to waste.If, by some miracle, he came on such a sight in his own pastures, hewould probably consume much time practising the impossible art of"creasing" the...
A WORKING PLANT Let us take an actual instance of one man who did go ahead and findout by experience just how intricate and just how simple a thingelectricity from farm water-power is. This man's name was Perkins, or,we will call him that, in relating this story. Perkins was what some people call, not a farmer, but an"agriculturist,"—that is, he wa...
A LITTLE PROSPECTING The average farmer makes the mistake of considering that one must havea river of some size to develop power of any practical use. On yournext free day do a little prospecting. We have already said that 250cubic feet of water falling 10 feet a minute will provide light, heatand small motor power for the average farm. A single wa...
HOW TO MEASURE WATER-POWER If a man were off in the woods and needed a horsepower of energy towork for him, he could generate it by lifting 550 pounds of stone orwood, or whatnot, one foot off the ground, and letting it fall back inthe space of one second. As a man possesses capacity for work equal toone-fifth horsepower, it would take him five sec...

Both are called turbines, although the namebelongs, more properly, to the reaction wheel alone. Impulse wheels derive their power from the momentum of fallingwater. Reaction wheels derive their power from the momentum andpr...
THE DYNAMO; WHAT IT DOES, AND HOW What a farmer really does in generating electricity from water thatwould otherwise run to waste in his brook, is to install a private Sunof his own—which is on duty not merely in daylight, but twenty-fourhours a day; a private Sun which is under such simple control that itshines or provides heat and power, when and...
WHAT SIZE PLANT TO INSTALL The farmer's wife becomes his partner when he has concluded thepreliminary measurements and surveys for building his water-powerelectric plant. Now the question is, how big a plant is necessary, orhow small a plant can he get along with. Electricity may be used for amultitude of purposes on the farm, in its sphere of furn...
TRANSMISSION LINES Having determined on the location of the farm water-power electricplant, and its capacity, in terms of electricity, there remains thewiring, for the transmission line, and the house and barn. For transmission lines, copper wire covered with waterproof braid—theso-called weatherproof wire of the trade—is used. Under nocircumstance...
