RADIO BUGS KEEP THE
 CONVERSATION LIVELY,

The radio lunch table" at cen- tral has some new records passed between those sitting around every day The talk used by the various bugs" that want to make others think they are familiar with all the terms, etc. Is very confusing to the ones sitting around.
 q heard wLw fine on the detector last night says one of the bugs" as the mon radio" fellows look at them with a blank expression. T heard them, too" says another bug" but some spark station kept coming in. and so I turned aVer and hs- tened to KDKA and WWJ." About this time one of the bugs" that thinks he knows all the "hook-ups etc, stars in: T tried out some radio frequency last night, but I think audio frequency is the easiest to op- era te." Another one of this type an- swers with. Have you tried that new Armstrong super regenerative cir cult? I did and it worked fine.'
 Last Wednesday at the lunch table the chief topic of conversation was about how well WLW at Cincinnati came in the night before. I was one of the many that heard them that night, and they sure did roar in Everybody with a vacuum tube set seems to have heard them and every one says 1t was the loudest they have ever heard a station out of town.
 Edward Beatty said that he heard r stations that night.

On the Supcr-Regenrntor

Question: was planning my panel, had it completely laid out and was ready to begin work on 1t when read in your article in last Sundays paper advising the reduction of con trols, eliminating rheostats, etc. changed my plans and shall wait for additional information. Will you please advise whether varlometer must be placed in inductive relation to stator or vario coupler in the super-regene or is it necessary only to have windings of variometer run in same direction tU secondary of vario-coupler? Should stator be tapped and should the loop be tap- ped?-C. o. P.
 Answer. In the first place. you can do away with the switch points en- tirely. We have found from experi- ment that all of the primary of the vario- coupler can be permanently wired into the set, thus eliminating the two switches. That is, of course if the primary does not consist of more than 70 turns on the three-inch tube. l think that the best results will be obtained with the variometer in an inductiye relationship with the verio coupler directly above it, as you show on pour panel. The wind ing, of course, should also be in the same direction SIS the rotor of the variC-coupler. It is not necessary to tap the loop-the condenser C1 takes care of that.

MISTAKE ID MAKE SET HURR|EDLY IF. YOU WANT RESULTS
Put Your Best Efforts Into It and Make It Perma-
 nent Affair

Many starters in radio think 1t a good idea to make a temporary set and then after experimenting a while make permanent one. This, how ever, is not wise idea. You can set very little or no good out Of these experiments and you will, no doubt. find that the standard hook up" is the best.
 When you decide to make vacu- um tube set decide one more tblng while you are deciding. That is that you will make 1t slowly and have everything just as 1t should be l. costs only little more to get the right kind of material and it pays in the long run.
 If you want a set for the reception Of radio concerts which are sent out on wave length of three hundred and sixty meters, you have your choice between @ variometer set and a ticker set as 1t is called. The lat ter is considered the best and know for certain that it is the easiest to operate. You can get the instruc- tions for making either of these sets at any of the radio stores and shops in Birmingham.
 The detector and tuning unit of such set will never have to be changed if made right. even if addi- tions are made to the set, so 1t Is indeed a good plan to make this part right It is human nature to try to get the set finished in hurry after the hardest part Is past, but 1t is not by any means a good idea. IT you make a good deteetor and tuning unit you have a good set with a wide range whether you add ampllfiers or not. These can be added without touching the wiring or mountings of the unit mentioned.
 Make yourself set that you will be proud to show your friends and you will be glad in the end.

First Aid For Radio Fans

l use larger diameter tube will it spoil my set any?-G. ". B.
 Answer. l do not think that you will get any results that will be sat isfactory with a fixed coupling be. tween the primary and and second ary What l would suggest is that you use the coil wound on the three inch tube as a primary and tune th.s coil by means of your variable con- denser shunted around it. the aerial and ground being connected in series with the coil The variometer can then be used as a tickler coil That is about the most efficient manner in which you could use this arrange ment. It will give you a single cir cult receiver, which ought to be effic- tent enough.

Frogs in France are in future to have a closed season, in which they may not be caught and sent to' mar ket, says-the Paris correspondent of the London Daily Mall. This decision, recently made by M. Autrand, prefect of the Seine. is the result of a protest from Paris gourmets, who complained that these edible betrachians were fast disappearing through being mercilessly hunted and destroyed. The new decree makes 1t Illegal to catch frogs between April IS and June IS, the period during which frogs mate and lay their eggs.

Using Dry Cell Tubes

Question: notice hook-up of two variometer and vario-coupler using a h volt areiotron tube, which is said to give good results. Would it be possible to amplify this arrangement by adding another one or two such small bulbs2 If so, would you kindly give me hook-up and what kind of transformers, etc., in next Sundays Age Herald? I am trying to get away fro mthe cumbersome "A" battery.- H. H.
 Answer It is perfectly O. K. to use a two-step amplifier with the 1 F volt tubes. Any of the standard simplifying transformers can be used for this purpose. The tubes will stand upward of 45 volts on the plates. The regular circuit diagram for two stages of audio-frequency amplficaticn should be followed in this case,

Wiring the Fcedback Coll

Question. I am building an Arm strong uper-regenerator and have bought 1S0-degree varioeoup!er, having 50 turns of No. 20 D. s. C. wire on the primary and 40 turns On the rotor. Have tried to backwind one side of rotor with same size wire, but can only get 36 turns on 1t, and it is a fierce looking job and bulges so that 1t hits the inside of the prl- mary tube. Was wondering if the extra GO turns could not be wound on another four-inch tube, wiring connected to rotor and placed on end of present primary if that would not give same results.-E, R.
 Answer. would suggest that you rewire the secondary with single winding, using No. 30 enamel-eovered copper wire. With this size wire you should get pretty close to 100 turns after winding the rotor fully.

Ground shielding the Set

Question. I want to shield my va rometer set against self-capacity. Is it possible for me to ground and still be able to tune2 1 have two stages of audio- frequency amplification, yet when I tune in with the grid vart tm- eter it changes when l take my hand from the dial. Can this be overcome, and can I tune in to 150 meters?- J. T. N.
 Answer. The easiest and most ef- fectlve way to eliminate the effects of body capacity is to completely ground shield the set, Since you are using varic-coupler two-variometer circuit you can also place shields be- tween these instruments. The shields should be grounded, care being taken, of course. to see that none of the other connections to the set touch them. Your present set should tune down tC f5o meters without any diff ficulty whatsoever. In this case it is just a matter of tuning.

Fixed Coupling Inefficient

Question. Will you klndIy ansWer the following questions? I am follow ing directions in building set. and it says to wind a three-inch tube four inches long with 50 turns of No. Is wire, which is the secondary, and then leave one-eighth of an inch space and wind 20 turns in the same direction, which is the primary. The book says that this coil is the secret of sharp tuning and regeneration. How is this? Now. the rotor of my variometer Is 3ss inches in diameter
 Should not the coil be the same di
 ameter? It does not say so in the directions. If so. please give me the amount of turns of No. IS wire to make this coil 3ss inches in diame- ter. want the wave length about the same as the three-inch coil. If

n. F. and super-Rescnerator

Question. l. It is possible to use radio frequency amplifier with 3 super-regenerative receiver for the reception of distant stations? 2. Can I substitut honeycomb coils for the vario coupler in the super-regenera- tive set in order to receive on longer wave lengths, and will l have to make any other changes in the super regenerative receiver if reception with honeycomb coils Is possible?-- H. H. H.
 Answer could not advise you. because I have not tried this. doubt it very much. as I believe there would be too much interactipn between the two systems. 9. You caa use honeycomb coils in place of the vario coupler, but not for long wave lengths. The system will not work on long waves. Its greatest ampli- fication is on the very short waves

U.Ing cIass for PaneI

Question. Will you kindly give me your opinion of plate glass for re- ceiver panel in place of bakelite; also do you consider nickle-p plated wire connections in receiver re- tards the efficiency?--D. s.
 Answer. You can use plate glass as a panel in place of bakelite, pro- vided you are not using a regenera- tive circuit. If you use regenera- tive circuit then the capacity effect will be very pronounced and you would have to shied the set, thus de- stroying the appearance which you desire from glass. I would strongly recommend copper wire for the con nections. If you desire to have good looking finish use squared tin cop per bus bar.

HOGS AND CORN
TO HAVE PLACE
In This STATE
County Agent Says Combina.
tion Will Bring Results;
Hampshire Sale Billed.

Hog and corn raising are due to be-
come popular among the farmers of
Cascade county. who have been unable
to make any profitable Roadway in
other lines of farming, according to
County Agent F. E. MacSpadden. It
has been well established during the
last four years that corn can be grown
successfully in Montana and the farm
ers have begun to realize that the hog
corn combination may be the means
Of paying off debts incurred by profit
less years Of dry land farming, he said.
The introduction of the Hampshire
breed of hogs into the county at the
sale of car load Of brood sows at the
Montana livestock pavilion in Great
Falls January % is definite step to-
ward improving the class of hogs now
raised in the county, Mr.. McSpadden
said. The sale is being conducted by
the firm of Wier and Sutherland,
breeders of pure bred Hampshires at
Hysham. with the cooperation of the
Great Falls Commercial club.

in the Teton. Pondera and Glacier
counties in the Lewis and Clark ma
tional forest, and Cascade. Meagher
and Judith Basin counties in the JET
ferson national forest. In the Jeffer-
son forest there are H., SOL acres OF
privately owned lands and in the Lewis
and Clark forest there are II, 469 acres
of privately owned lands, MIR. Swim
said.
The classification is to be made not
only Of all private lands within the
rational forests, but for all lands out
side the forests that are in the tim
her belt. The work of classifying the
timbered lands is to be completed and
the reports filed with the district for
ester by April 1, 1928.
Use County Records
It is planned to use, where possible,
the county land classification records
and the lands will be classified accord
ing to timber and grazing and mineral
resources. This work will determine
the amount Of cooperation that is
needed from the owners of private
lands for adequate fire protection, the
district forester pointed out.

corn, there being 1875 frost proof days
during The growing season, Mr.. Nc
Spadden said. Corn can be grown eff
fectively with 80 or 100 frost proof
days if the weather is warm and the
days light. The sunshine and hot
winds that destroy wheat crops are
not SO harmful to corn, he said Corn
Is the only type of cereal plant that
can weather particularly dry season
without heavy loss, owing to it's ability
to assume a resting" state during a
period of drouth and still continue to
grow uninjured when late rainfall re-
lieyes the drouth. During the last few
years it has become recognized staple
farm product of Cascade county, Mr..
MacSpadden said.
Quickest Way Out.
County Agent MacSpadden charac-
terized the hog-corn combination as
the quickest way out" for the farm
ers in Cascade county who have lost
money during the last few years. Hogs
do not require the same care as sheep
and are a much quicker turn over"
than cattle for farmers who are pushed
for money. There is little cholera
among the hogs in this part of the
country and the dry climate prevents
many diseases that are prevalent in
Doggy parts of the country. he said.
During the last year there have been
many hogs taken from eastern Mon
tana to Nebraska and Kansas and fat
ned on corn and shipped back to
Spokane for marketing BY raising
their own corn Montana farmers can
supply the western markets that de-
mand corn fed hogs without the ex
pense- and loss Of time that is re-
Of the recognized corn belt. Parts of
Montana are just as well adapted TO
the growth Of corn as that corn belt,
Mr.. MacSpadden said.
