BOOM IN BUILDING
 OPERATIONS IN NEW YORK

New York, Nov. 16.-Building opera tions show increased activity f2r this season of the year, according to Rrad- streets report issued today, and based on returns from 1881 out of 164 cities.

Don't fail to insulate the antenna.
Don't place the lightning switch in

Don't isten,in during thunder

Don't cause Interference with other
stations.
Don't try to use n loud speaker with

Don't run wires parallel in making
up receiving sets
Don't neglect to read everything
available on radio.
Don't attach ends OF antenna to
power OF telephone poles.
Don't connect radio set direct to
the electric light circuit.
Don't forget that ticker coils are
not used with crystal detector sets.
Don't expect to get loud signals with
crystal detector set while using an
indoor antenua.
Don't always blame the broadcast

Of your own apparatus.

In a "duo-ateral' winding the con-

coils Of large diameter, with a small
amount Of shunted capacity for tun-
ing. are most efficient for long wave

as major in the World war, STUDYING
gas warfare at the British front and
serving in charge Of the gas and flame
branch of the trench warfare section
Of the United States ermy.
"The purpose of gas in warfare is
to produce as much agony and torture
as possible, In order that the victim
may be at least incapacitated, If not act
ually killed." Major Mathews is quoted
as saying to the American Legion
news service. And IL is inconceiyable
that a state should desire to use gases
which produce such effects. The pur-
pose of capital punishment Is to re-
move the victim quietly and effective
ly, in order that society henceforth
may be protected and to serve as a
warning to other potential eyildoers.
ut is to be hoped that civilization
has reached a point where revenge Is
no longer a motive. Only savages tor
ture their victims before killing them :;
the use of any Of the war gases to re-
move criminals would be quite in line
with the practice Of savages.'
Professor Mathews said there were
gases which might be used for execu-
tions, If the use of gas at all could
ever be deemed wise. Carbon dioXde,
the poisonous constituent Of ordinary
Illuminating gas he declared would
be the logical one to use. He asserted,
however, that If the administration Of
gps for execution of criminals were
carried out, it should be entirely in
the hands of medically trained men
who understand both its use and at
tendant dangers.
1.-THE horrors of poorly carried out
electrocutlons are sufficiently vivid IN
the minds of thinking people to make
them abhor any method of execution
which may not be both humane ant
effective" he declared.

How Different Forms of Winding

BACTERIA FOR SEEDS
FROM STATE COLLEGE

Farmers can secure cultures of
nitrogen gathering bacteria from in
oculating legume seeds from the
State College of Washington When
planted on new ground for the first
time, legumes, such as peas, vetch
clover, alfalfa, sweetclover, beans,
and soybeans, should always be in
oculated. The yield and quality of
the crop is very materially increased
by the inoculaton.
Land that has previously grown
the same crop is often benefited by
incubation, especially if the land is
acid or dry. Giving the soil these
bacteria may spell the difference be-
tween success and failure if the land
is poor
The price is 25 cents for enough
bacteria for seed to plant an acre
One should write the Farm Crops
Department, State College, Pullman,
giving the name of the legume (clo-
yer or beans, or whatever it isl, the
number of acres to be planted. and
enclosing a check or post office mo-
ney order for the amount, % cents
an acre. The order should be sent
at least 10 days before planting time.
Full directions for the use of the
culture will be sent with the parcel.
