TELEPHONE ACHIEVEMENTS
Telephone Service of Today the Creation of the
Bell Company

In no line of human endeavor has the inventive
brain of the scientist contributed more to the
worlds progress than by the creation of the art
of telephony, of which the Bell system Is the EN-
bodlment
When the telephone was born, nothing analogous
to telephone service now know il existed
There no tradition to guide, no experience to
follow.
The system the apparatus, the methodsa en-
tire art had to be created The art of electri-
cal engineering did not exist, The bell pioneers,
recognizing that success depended upon the highest
engineering and technical skin, at once organized
experimental and research department which is
directed by staff of over $50 engineers and
scientists including former professors, post-gradu-
ate Students scientific investIgatorsthe graduates
of over 70 universities.
From its foundation the company has continu-
ousy developed the art. New improvements in
telephones switchboards lines cables, have fol-
lowed one another with remarkable rapidly
While each successive type OF apparatus to the
superficial observer suggested similarity, each step
in the evolution marked decided Improvement.
These changes, this evolution has not only been
continuous but is continuing. Substantially all OF
the plant now in use, including telephones, switch
boards, cables and wires, has been constructed. re
newed or reconstructed in the past 10 years,
Particularly in switchboards have the changes
been so radical tha; installations costing In the
aggregate millions have frequently been discarded
after only a few years of use.
Since 1877 there have been introduced So types
and styles of receivers and 7S types and styles OF
transmitters OF the l2,000000 telephone receivers

" HE COWPEA is the best annual
legume for green manuring
purposes grown in Kansas.
Sweet clover viii produce as much
and perhaps more green manuring
material in its second year Of growth
than viii the cowpea, but the first
years growth OF sweet clover is not
usually SO great and it requires the
entire spring and summer for growth;
whereas, the coRpea is planted in
late May, June or July and natures
by the time OF frost. The cowpea
has the advantage over rye for ma
nuring purposes in that the legume
obtains nitrogen from the air and
adds it to the soil; whereas rye can
not do this. When planted in May
or June. the cowpea is the only crop
grown on the field that season and
is usually harvested for hay or seed
production or is pastured, while for
green manuring purposes it is gen
orally drilled into the stubble Of
small grains Immediately after the
grain has been harvested, OF is plant
ed between the rows of corn at the
last cultivation. When planted in the
latter way, it is the second crop on
the land that season and can be prof
itably turned under for green manure.
Seeded In the grain stubble, the
cowpea crop may be plowed under be-
fore getting ripe, and the ground may
be seeded to another grain crop the
same fall. The average gain from
growing cowpeas between wheat
crops at the Kansas Agricultural Ex-
pertinent station at Manhattan in four
years trials was four and one-third
bushels to the acre over the yield OBJ
tanned by following wheat with wheat
without green manure crop between
Furthermore, this result was cumu-
latiVe; that is, the first years gain
was but one bushel, while the fourth
years gain was nine bushels in favor
of green manuTing.
However, it is better to follow COM
peas planted in grain stubble with
corn the next year. This allows the
cowpeas to grow longer in the fall,
not being plowed under until frost
and thus adding the maximum OF
vegetable matter rich in nitrogen. In
the drier portions Of the state, there
is not enough moisture to grow a COW
pea crop for green manuring after
grain and still leave the ground in
good condition to start wheat In the
fall.
The average OF four years results
