Vji RUNS LIGHTING PUNT House, Barns and Yard Itlumlnatsd From Powar Coating Nothing Capacity of Six Ampere. . What la probably the smallest farm lighting plant in the conntry has been Installed, on the farm of a dairyman near Voyrifette, WIs. Thia tiny plant Wpplies current for 24 lamps and la operated entirely by the farm windmill, at a total cost of a few cents a year for lubricating oil The farm Consists of about 100 acres and is devoted to stock rajsing and dairyings The power windmill Is 12 feet in diameter, with a vertical abaft extending down the tower? attached to It are the power pulleya, etc. In addition to driving the electric light l is used 'to operate dynamo a drill press, grindstone, corn shelter, small saw,, washing machine, grain elevator and feed grinder. The dynamo ts located In a small building at the base of the windmill tower. Thia dynamo has a capacity of six amperes at 85 volts, or 0J kilowatts when driven at full speed of 450 revolutlone a minute. The'varlations in speed, due to Irregularities in the wlnd. aje overcome by a small automatic switch placed In the circuit' between the generator and the storage batteries, which prevents any accidents to the apparatus by 'breaking" the circuit when, a certain range, of speedhaa been passed. The tiny plant Illuminates tha home, the yards and tha barn buildings. All the lamps receive, their currentfrom the storage battery, the charging of which Is the dynamos only function. The entire plant. Including windmill, generator, battery, wiring, lamps, etc., could be duplicated for not more than 250. Philadelphia Record.
