when RI increases, III must decrease.
This means that when a constant "B'
battery potential is applied to the
plate circuit Of a vacuum tube, con
tanning external resistance, Hn in
crease in plate current causes a de-
crease in the potential existing be-
tween the plate and the ilament.
The static characteristic curve
was drawn on the assumption that
the difference in potential between
the plate and the flament remained
constant, obviously then, when the ex-
ternal plate circuit has other than
zero Importance, the static character
istic curve no longer holds true.
The characteristic curve of a tube
having other than zero impedance in
the external plate circuit is the "dy-
namic' characteristic. The greater
the variations in plate current, the
greater the variation in the voltage
existing between the plate and the
flament. If the value of r, the x
ternal plate impedance, is increased,
the greater will be the variation in
the plate to filament voltage for the
same variation in plate current.
In Fig. XXVI (2) is represented the
dynamic characteristic of a tube with
a certain definite value of r in the
plate circuit. Curve 90 represents
the dynamic characteristic of the
tube with a larger value OF
in the plate circuit. Fintlly the ex-
condition is reached, in which
r is made infinitely high and the
dynamic characteristic becomes par
allel to the grid voltage axis as in
~. This shows that variations of
grid potential would produce no var
iation of plate current, but maxi
mum variations Of plate variations of
plate potential. These would be am
)lified variations of grid potential
variations.
This last condition of having the
TariatiOns of plate potential amplifled
variations Of grid potential varia-
ions is the ideal condition sought for
n vacuum tube amplifiers.

tor of n. between the supply of alter
mating difference of potential at TT,
was just X times what it actually is.
All these considerations have been
based on the assumption that the
total impedance resistance to the
flow of an alternating current) of
the entire plate circuit existed inter-
nally in the tube between the filament
and the plate, and that the external
electrical circuit from the plate to
The flament had zero impedance. OF
course, this condition never exists in
practice. The external plate cir
cult always has Importance in it in
the form of telephone receivers, re-
sistance choke coils, or transformer
primaries, depending upon the means
that is employed to couple the sue
cessive tubes together.
1t is only where the external plate
circuit of a tube has zero
impedan.e thar the plate voltage is
equal to that of the "B" battery. As
soon as an impedance is introduced
into the external plate circuit, part
of the total potential of the "B" ex-
lists as a drop across the external i'm
pedance, so that only a portion Of the
total "B" battery is available at the
plate.
Fig. XXVI represents the char
acteristic curve of the tube as we
have been discussing it, with nc i'm
Dedance in the external plate circuit.
This curve is called the "static" char
lcteristic curve, to d~ifferentiate from

AS the plate current increases. the

With the widely varying weather
conditions that have prevailed in the
different sections of the prairie prov.
inces it would be impossible to fore

how the crop is made. The Manitoba
crop has held its own, and the outlook

With h exception of an area south
and west of Brandon, grain crops in
Manitoba continue to give promises
OF a good harvest, the best in fact for
a number of seasons, reports the Cana

ended July %. Recent rains and favor

ditions wonderfully.
Southwestern Manitoba will reap a
harvest which will nearly equal the
bumper harvest of 1915. Farmers in
the district are very optimistic. The
rye crop is exceptionally good; many
fields will yield upwards of 80 bushels
per acre. The fields are remarkably

menace, which has been evident in the
