PROGRESS OF RADIO
THROUGH THE YEARS
wireless Research Began Long
Ago, But Development Has
Been Swift Lately.

wireless research started MANY
years ago, as far back even as 1927.
Even the radio telephone is not a re-
cent perfection; rather it is that intro
duction to the layman Of the human
voice and music has suddenly popular
lied something that wireless men had
thought a pastime or amusement. Here
Is the chronological record of wire
less:
1827-It was found that the mag
netic discharge from a leyden jar
would magnetic steel needle.
1881 - electromagnetic induction
was discovered between two entirely
separate circuits by Michael Faraday.
1637-Cooke and Wheatstone Of
London, England, and Morse of the
United States take out first patent for
electric telegraph.
1S3S-K. A. Steinhell of Munich
suggested that a system of wireless
telegraphy could be established after
his discovery of the use Of the earth
return.
1S4O-Joseph Henry (U. S. Az pro-
duced the first high-frequency cleo
trio oscillations, and stated that the
condenser discharge is oscillatory.
1912 Wireless experiments were
made by S. r. B. Morse by electric
conduction through water across
Washington canal and across wide
rivers.
1S43-A wireless system for trans
atlantic communication was suggested.
1S45-Water was used as a conduct
Ing medium in wireless experiments
across a wide river
1S49-Intelligible signals were act
ually sent across a river 1900 feet
wide in India, but the cost was found
prOhibitive for commercial use
1867-The electric waves that are
now utilized in wireless telegraphy
and telephony were predicted in an

address before the Royal Society In
London, England.
1S80-The sending Of an electric cur
rent through earth was systematical-
ly studied by John TrOwbridge OF
Harvard. 1t was found that signal
ing might be carried on over large
distances between places not connected
by wires.
1SS5-It was found that telephone
speech could be conveyed by induction
over a space of quarter mile. This
experiment took place in England.
1SS9-Electric waves were sug-
gested as being particularly suitable
for the sending Of signals through
fogs.
1S92-An instrument for the detec-
ton of electromagnetic waves was
discovered which was given the name
of "coherer."
1894-A scientist Of Berlin signaled
through three miles of water.
1S95-High frequency waves excite
curiosity of Senatore Marconi.
1896-First patent for practical
wireless transmitting system is taken
out in London by Marconi. Afterward,
successful signaling was carried out
over distances as great as one and
one-quarter miles. Sir William Preece
of the British postoffice system In
terested his cohorts in Marconi's wire
less experiments.
1S97-Marconi establishes communi-
cation between points four miles dis
tant. Balloons were used to suspend
antennae.
Marconi demonstrates his wireless
system before the king of Italy, COM
municating with two Italian warships
nine miles distant.
The first Marconi station is erected
on the Isle of Wight and experiments
conducted over a distance of IA miles.
Near the end of the year the first
floating wireless station was success
fully operated.
1S9S-The first paid marconigram
was sent from the Isle Of Wight
station.
1899-RepOrts made on lighthouse
accident by radio. First Frezch gun
boat is fitted with radio apparatus. In
Vienna communication between two
balloons Is established. New York
Herald receives radio report of inter
national yacht races. The British war

That was the story told by Patrol

peated the tale as told by Mrs. Abra-
hanson. The woman is thirty-nine
years old and feared she would never
have another baby She said she could
not stand her husbands laughs and
sneers because she had given birth to
dead baby, so finally she decided to
shoot and kill him.

WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney ant
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to bt
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition, they may cause the other Or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp
toms of kidney trouble.

Cost of Horse Labor
Can be Cut Down

With the harvest season almost
ended in Kentucky, farmers can cut
the cost Of their horse labor by eeono-
mixing in the feeding and care OF
work stock during the coming winter.
according 10 W. s. Anderson, a men,
Der Of the animal husbandry stan OF
the College Of Agriculture and a well
known authority on horses. Only a
small part Of the average number OF
work animals will be needed on the
farm between now and the time OF
early spring blowing. This form Of
economy is especially important at
this time in view Of the fact that
the chief consideration Of production
and Of operation.
Work stock in the early fall
months will do well with a third TO
half grain ration and aceeds to a
good pasture field. The grain can be
gradually lessened until the animals
are consuming only the roughage Of
