to Hartford and deliver an address

spent much money, in fact he made
the financing of the hurley pool pos
sible, having loaned the organization
freely of his means.

a pledged member of the association
or not, is urged to be present and
hear this gifted orator and large bus

CROP AND WEATHER
REPORT FOR WEEK
Summary of weather and crop condi-
tons In Kentucky for the week
ending Tuesday, Sept. IL, 1922

Louisville, KY, Sept. 10, 1922.
The first five days were hot and
dry, intsnsifying drought conditions
in the western half of the State, but
favorable for maturing late crops
where moisture was sufficient. The
showers in the central and western
counties, followed by much cooler
weather. Late corn, tobacco, and
potatoes continued TO improve in the
northeastern counties, where these
crops are in fairly good condition;
but there was little growth in the
western section, where their cOndi-
ton is poor except on bottom lands.
Corn and tobacco are firing" on hill
ly uplands. The showers late in the
wesk afforded some relief locally in
the central and western sections; but
the rainfall was not sufficient to start
general growth of crops or grass. Re-
ports indicate that the late potato
crop is failure in much OF the west
ern section. Early tobacco, much
reduced in yield by drought, is now
in barn and curing rapidly. Cutting
of early corn has commenced ganer-
ally. but progress was slow because
of the hot, dry weather. Some plow-
ing was done in the northeastern
counties. but very little in other sec
tions because of the hard. dry soil.
This work can not proceed until hea-
Wy rains occur. The weather was ia
vorable for cutting and curing alfal-
ia and cowpea hay. but the yields
have been reduced by drought Pas,
lures revived somewhat in the north
eastern district. but they are badly
dried in the hilly section OF the cen
trail and western districts. Stock
water continues short in many local.

RADIO
HOW AMATEUR CAN
BUILD A RECEIVER
instructions for Setting Up the
Antenna and for Assembling
the Tuner.

In order 10 pick up sufficient energy
with the simple radio receiving set
It Is necessary to connect one termi-
nal To an untenna consisting of one OF
more wires suspended in the air and
Insulated from all grounded material
and the other terminal to ground.
usually the water supply pipe. The
height Of AN antenna used with
small receiver should not be less than
50 feet As the received energy va
ries directly as the height of an anten-
ma. the higher the antenna the louder
will be the signals or voice produced.
The length of an antenna for short
wave reception should not be less than
30 feet nor should 1t be longer than
200 feet. The minimum wave length
to which simple receiver can be
adjusted for electrical resonance will
be above that used by amateurs IL
the receiver be connected to an an
tcnna 200 feet or more in length.
4 simple radiophone receiver cap
able Of picking up radiOphone sta
lions similar to kDKA at East Pitts
hurgh can be assembled by a novice
for from 81 to SIS, depending upon
the builders ability to use his hands.
II the builder will construct most of
his apparatus he will appreciate 1t
much more and probably will under
stand more about its operation than
II he buys a set already made. How
ever. for those who have not the abil-
lty or the time to spend constructing
their own apparatus TIE following de
scriptlon will not only give the details
as To the construction of each COM
punent part of receiver but also
what standard ready-made parts can
be purchased and used in its stead.
The material can be purchased at
any electrical supply store.
In erecting simple antenna for
use with the receiver shown in the
diagram. the antenna proper and the
lcad-in are of stranded hard-drawn
copper wire. strand No. -. costing
about cent per foot. The two insu-
lutors ure Of nodded material and can
be purchased for about % cents each.
The antenua shown is supported ne
tween house and pole. II may be
found more convenient to support 1t
between tree and a house, two houses
or even between two chimneys on
the same house. In bringing down the
lead-in care should be taken that II
is kept as far away from grounded
material as possible and when bring
Ing through the wall or under the win
dow into the house it should be brought
through some sort of an insulating
tube. such as rubber or bakelite.
In making the ground connection
the same kind of wire can be used as
was purchased for the antenna. You
can clean a section of the waterpipe
thoroughly and solder the ground wire
to 1t.

circular blocks of wood whose
diameter is just equal to the inside
diameter of the piece of cardboard

Some shellac or varnish is also re
quired.

Fasten one end OF the winding to the

the other end for making a connec-
tion. After the winding Is In place
give II coat of shellac or varnish
to hold the turns in place. Assemble
geometrical center of the square
blocks and then shellac or varnish
them for the Appearances sake.
When thoroughly dry slip the two
end blocks into the wound tube and
by means Of few finishing brads
driven through the cardboard tube.
fasten the end blocks to the wound
tube. The slider is to be mounted
on top OF the coll and should be cap
able CT making contact with any turn
Of the wire on the tube. In order to
remove the Insulation from the wire
jnst under the rod where the slider
moves back and forth. wrap a piece of
sandpaper around thin piece Of
wood and using another piece of wood
as guide, sandpaper the insulation
from the winding. Drill a hole one
eighth inch In diameter through the
slider rod about one-fourth inch IN
from each end so that the rod can
be fastened by screws to the end
blocks. After the slider rod is fastened
in place see that the contact finger
on the bottom Of the slider can at all
times make good contact with the
winding. Mount binding post on
either end of the coil, attaching one
by means of a wire to the slider rod
and the other to the end OF the wire
wound on the tube and the tuner IS
complete. A tuner can be purchased

In mia Atlantic, so That the pOssibll
ity of linking the movies with the new
art is not remote.
If perfected the new development Of
the already versatile art will make 1t
possible for one TO see on his own re-
ceiving instrument things that are hap.
pening at a great distance. For
instance, ship is sinking at sea. The
transmitting station of the vessel, in
stead of sending a message of the dis
aster, sends a picture that anyone with
a receiving set will be able to see Just
as the present broadcasting programs
are heard.
That all sounds remote now, but
the telephone was considered even
more so, and the wireless, even after
Marconl's immortal message had
bridged the Atlantic. was generally be-

A crystal detector cannot be
satisfactorily amplified.

A crystal detector cannot be
satisfactorily amplified.
Insulate ends of aerial wires
with several small insulators.
Wherever possible run aerial
wires at right angles to electric
light wires.
The lead wire should be the
size of the combined number Of
wires in the aerial.
Gas piping makes poor
ground. but the cold water pipe
ground is excellent.
A crystal detector is never as
efficient as vacuum tube detec-
tor no matter what instruments
are connected to II.
Within three to five miles from

one wire aerials about 40 feet
long stretched from room to

Potlatch Mill Shut Down

The Potlatch Lumber company's
big mill at Potlatch was closed down
Saturday night, and will remain clos
ed until about March l, says the Star
Mirror. A statement made to the
Star-Mirror by A. w. Laird, general
manager of the company, over long
distance telephone this afternoon was
to tile effect that the company had
intended operating for a few weeks
yet, but the severe storm, coupled
with the car shortage, made it neces-
sary to suspend operations at once.
While the demand for lumber is
fairly good, Mr.. Laird stated, the car
shortage has resulted in the yard
filling up, necessitating an abrupt
termination Of activities, both at the
mill and In the woods, for the winter
The company has been greatly dis
commoded by the inability to secure
cars the past fall, but the manage
ment expects q more favorable con
dition before spring and 1t seems Ger
tain that it will not be necessary tc
prolong the shutdown beyond the
first of March.
Several hundred men will be thrown
out of employment by the sudden ces
sation of work and with winter jus
coming on, this is considered one o
the unfortunate features. However
it has been the policy of the compan.
to take care, in so far as possible
of men with families, during an.
time that the plant is not in oper
alton.
