XII. CONDENsERs

These appliances are most impor-
tant part of wireless set, as with
out them the oscillations, even if
detected by the instruments, would
be very weak and faint. They are
divided broadly into two classes known
as Fixed Condensers and Variable
Condensers, the former being the simp-
lest, and the latter the most efficient,
for While fixed condenser is always oil
one capacity and can only be increased
OF decreased by adding to or sub
tracing from the number of sheets,
the variable type may be altered or
adjusted at will by a knob or handle,
thus tuning or adjusting the receiving
circuit exactly as tuning coil is dd-
justed, but much more delicately, as
the adjustment of tuning coil con-
sists in shortening the length Of coil
by jumping competitions from one turn
lengths, whereas, the condenser ad-
justment is slow, even and gradual and
alters capacity; but it must not be
forgotten that for wireless telephony
receiving, both condenser and some
sort of coil or similar device must be
employed to get satisfactory results.
The simplest form of fixed condenser
consists of a number of alternating
sheets of tin-foil and waxed paper or
mica, the alternate sheets Of foil be-
ing connected by wires which are in
turn connected With the terminals
where required.
To make fixed condenser 1t is only
necessary to lay sheets of tin-foil be-
tween sheets Of waxed paper and con-
meet them. A very efficient little
fixed condenser, to be used by shunt-
ing across the receivers Of a small set,
or as a grid-condenser with a. vacuum
tube set, can be made as shown in
Fig %. Have some smooth tin-foil,
free from holes or tears, and cut two
pieces about one inch in length and
one-half an inch wide. Then, from
thoroughly waxed paper-which can
be purchased or can be made by soak
ing good quality writing paper in
paranlne WaX-cut three pieces ~,
inches in length and 2 inches wide On
one Of these pieces place a piece of
the foil; then cover this with second
strip of paper, place the other strip Of
foil over this and cover with the
last strip Of paper. Be very sure that
the edges Of the tin-fo!l are we'll with
in the margins Of paper and are ac-
curately in line or centered. In fact
before placing them, it is wise to draw
a square the size Of the foil on each
piece Of paper, spacing it equidistant
from edges, and arrange the foil to fit
this, Fig. "a. Next cut two pieces Of
light wire five or six inches long
(fexible stranded wire is best), spread
the strands at one end of each piece
apart and place one of these frayed
and spread ends on the lowest piece

Rye threshing started on number
of farms the first of this week and
the rigs will be kept busy for the
next few weeks for as soon as the rye
is threshed the barley will be ready.
The yield on the rye varies consider
ably in the different fields but will
probably average around 20 bushels
per acre. The quality is good and
it is weighing from Sc to SIS pounds
to the bushel.

OF OUR OWN MAKING

Simple precautions would avert
most of the railroad crossing horrors.
Here are few rules, which, if fol-
lowed would save many lives:
Never approach railroad tracks
that must be crossed at grade, with
out this thought: Here is the place
where l must play safe!" Have your
car under control, then you will be
prepared for any emergency. You
know the Importance of having good
brakes on your car. Look them over
from time to time.
Probably nine out OF ten times
there will not be train near enough
to check yo ruprogress over the
tracks. ,E1ake no effort to go across,
until, by careful use of both eyes and
ears, you have sized up the situation.
All must agree that a little time
spent in trying to protect life and
limbs is a good Investment. We use
up some time hunting bargains in
stores. Better plan to hold onto the
life you possess. No bargain counter
has another to offer you. When your
end comes, you will be a long time
dead.
Maybe, whenj you get near the
railroad tracks, you see train COM
ing, the thought pops into your mind:
Il can beat it across. Tie thought
is mere whim. Your Judgment is
not speaking. In such case, wait for
sober second thought.
Remember that fast train can
run the quarter mile from the whist
ling post to the crossing in fifteen
seconds. Do you know just exactly
how far you can make your care go
in one-fourth of a minute? Most OF
us fail to do our best in an emerg-
ency.
Do you admire man who tries to
beat a train over crossing. when he
has his family or friends in the car
with him, depending upon him for
protection? If such man were to
run his business so carelessly as that
we greatly fear that the balance
would show up on the wrong side of
his ledger. Most Of us are very
weary of reading newspaper accounts
of death and destruction. Let's be
rooters for safety at the crossing!

Now is the time to get busy and
cut those unsightly weeds around. tho
premises. Don't let the seeds ripen
and scatter. A few minutes work will
greatly improve appearances
