General Squier's radio. hitched to the
electric socket OF a desk lamp instead
of the usual antenna.
Music, classical and jazz, floated
into the office from a broadcasting
station without interference. The
general said:
I'VE have no trouble with static
or other interference. This gives us
an extra wave length and doesn't in
terfere with any other"
The discovery is expected eventual
iy to do awey altogether with the
need for antenna everywhere where
there are light or power wires to re.
| cefve electrical waves, even In the
case of powerful sending station.
General Squier is working on a
rolling pin" receiver, so called be-
cause OF it's shape, which may be
reduced 40 that q walking cane may
be fitted with II and made a receiv-
ing station. Of course, without
antenna.
With the rapid development of pub
lie interest in radio the antenna
threatened to become as great a
nuisance as overhead power and troll
ley wires. especially dangerous to
aviators. Development of the Squier
discovery will do away with wires
The idea occurred to General
Squier one day last week. It is
amazingly simple. There Is nothing
to II except a connection with any
electric lamp socket instead Of an.
tenna.
Hook up your radio to the lamp
socket just as you would your fiat
iron or any other electrical domestic
appliance.
Large hotels, for instance, NAV
with little expense equip all their
rooms with instruments. Whenever
you want a concert or a lecture
merely attach the plug Of your in
strument to any socket. You can
turn 1t off at will. Hear 1t in bed II
you want to.
This arrangement uses none of
the power in the wire employed, and
so the entertainment from this radio
appliance, besides doing away with
the antenna, does not increase the
cost of your entertainment
General Squier. a technical expert,
became actively interested in the
problem from the stand
point Of the amateur when he repre-.
sented the signal service in Secretary
Hoover's radio conference.

A well-known professor says
that kissing is becoming too COM
mon in colleges. Maybe he's right,
but as long as you go to a uni
versity you might as well learn
everything you can.
II kissing Is really going on In
our universities, then this accounts
for so many students taking post
graduate courses.
No coed wants to get eighty in
arithmetic, ninety in geography
and only ten in kissing.
A man has to learn somewhere,
and that's one thing he can't prac-
tlse at home.
Just because your girl has
nice parlor. that's no sign she
wants to make a rehearsal hall
out Of II.
A guy can kiss his girl goOdby
when he goes to college, and when
he comes back she can notice the
difference.
Nobody has to tell her that he's
been practicing. She can get II
from his own lips.
When a girl tells you it's the
first time she's ever been kissed,
you can't help but think how we'll

courses at college, but a lot Of stu

WISCONSIN HAS ONE-FOURTH
CONTRASTING ASSOCIATIONS

The lis cow-testing associations in
Wisconsin, kept in operation with the
assistance of county agents and spe-
cialists employed comparatively by the
United States department of agricul-
ture and the state agricultural college,
equal almost one-fourth of all the as
sociations of the country. Twelve OF
these associations have been organized
since December l, 1921, and the men,
bership in the state now numbers
about $500 farmers owning $4,000
cows.
The aims of the associations have
been to weed out Improbable cows
and to feed the animals balanced ra-
tons for maximum milk production.
Records of the associations show the
value of high-grade cows and pure
bred sires. Last year 1886 purebred
bulls were purchased by the associa-
tons and SO scrub bulls replaced by
purebreds in SO associations.

BETTER LAWS AGAINST DOGS
NEEDED TO- PROTECT SHEEP

Although 4S states have dog laws
designed to protect sheep, many of
them are so poorly planned or so
poorly enforced that dogs still do
much damage to flocks, especially in
the farming states where flocks are
small and dogs are plentiful. There
is need for Improvement in these laws,
but, says the United States depart
ment of agriculture, poor law that
is enforced with energy may produce
better results in sheep conservation
than much better law that is half
heartedly enforced. Dogs keep many
men from going into the sheep bust
ness, which is probably greater set
back to the industry than the actual
damage done by them.

BLACK CANYON
RESULT IS BIC
GAIN FOR IDAHO
Burton L. French Well
Pleased With Allotment
of 5000, 900 to Complete
Dam.

WASHINGTON, June II (By
MaiD-The interior department mott
fed Congressman French today of ap-
proval of allotment Of 100000 for this
years construction work on the dam
| to be located above Emmett, in con-
nection with the Emmett Black Can
yon irrigation Project.
Congress French has been pressing
for this appropriation for several years
and two years ago the amount was in
cluded in the estimates from the De-
partment to Congress, and the Con-
gress made the appropriation, but a
sufficient amount of money did not
accrue to the Reclamation Fund and
so the work could not begin a year
ago. Again, the item was included in
the estimates submitted last fall and
the Congress approved the amount in
the bill that was signed six weeks
ago.
The ALLEGATION of the 100000 at
this time must be regarded as indicat-
ing how important the Reclamation
officers feel is the matter of carrying
forward the Emmett Black Canyon
Project at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
Congressman French said:
ut goes without saying that I re-
gard the segregation of 100000 for
this years construction work on the
Black Canyon-Emmett dam as the
most important individual piece of
work for Idaho in several years. The
dam and allied works will probably
cost close to one million dollars and,
in addition, canals and other irriga-
ton works will need to be cared for
later on.
Under the Emmett part of the new
unit, there will be included 22,5Oo
acres of land, most of which is now
under water furnished by the present
system and which has become unsafe.
Under the Black Canyon part of
the unit. there will be approximately
$4,000 acres, including the $500
acres known as he Notus unit which
was irrigated for the first time last
year. | am just advised that 90 per
cent of the Notus tract this second
year of its irrigation will be under
cultivation this year and unquestion-
ably the rapidity with which the Notus
part OF the tract has been brought
under cultivation suggests the intense
interest that will be manifested in the
entire Emmett Black Canyon area"

In the effort to force the coal men
into line the Commission held that
the interests of the public demanded
that the information be given. In
answer, the Maynard company, which
has volunteered to test out the Com
MISSIONS authority in the courts, held
that to provide the information deslr-
ed would mean that a system Of
bookkeeping must be installed at a
prohibitive figure. 1t is also held by
the coal company that the Commits

affairs of corporations, and that the
matter is the business Of the individ-

more salable than that of non-purebred sires and brings nearly 50 per cent greater returns.
 The foregoing are a few results of a recent inquiry conducted by the bureau of animal industry, United States Department of Agriculture The figures are based on about 250o0 head of breeding stock owned by 525 expert enced livestock owners. Besides, the same persons own 3O.OOO fowls on which the poultry results are based. All of these stockmen have for several years-an average of nine-used pure bred sires to head their herds and fiocks.
 Figures Are Conservative.
 The figures mentioned were obtained during the last part of 1921 in peri cd of marked depression in the live stock industry. Partly for that req son they are considered conservative even though pointing to an unusually high value of purebreds over com mon stock.
 The purpose of obtaining this new information was to supply an increas- ing demand for facts of greater scope than single short-time observations. With the development of the Federal State campaign for Better Sires- Better Stock" the Department has re- ceived an unusually large number of requests asking what purebreds can do for the man who does not aspire to become specialized breeder.
