The idea that live wires can end drouths has been advanced by England's lead-in? electrical expert, the 89-year-old Sir John Ambro.se Fleming. Support cf his theory was offered by him In a letter to a London newspaper, in which he said that a grid network of high tension cables may have the effect of stimulating rainfall. He pointed to the following two experiments: When a fine jet of water is allowed to fall parabolically into a metal tub. hardly any noise produced, but if an electrified rod is placed near the Jet, the fine spray coalesces into large drops, which fall into the tub with a genuine patter.

Also, when a fine Jet of steam is backed by an electric lamp, there is practically no shadow; the presence of an electrified rod. however, causes the formation of the steam into large drops which make the shadow clearly visible, the shadow becoming the yellow-brown color that often edges clouds in a thunderstorm.
