not die out, but Is continuous In its

unless it's natural frequency 10 the

There is, then, some advantage in
having continuous alterations of

desired to have a critical resonance

In any case. when it is desired to
tune one circuit to another 1t Is only

it's total reaceance is zero for the
frequency of current flowing in the

quency of the secondary circuit is
then coincident with the frequency
of the alternating current in th., pri-
mary. An increase of capacity or in
ductance or both causes a decrease
of natural frequency and vice versa.
Tuning is. then, merely a matter of
adjusting the capacity of a condenser
and the inductance of a coil of wire.
Variable air condensers are suitable
for capacity variations in receiving,
and coils of wire with taps are suit
able for inductance variations The
capacity of a variable air condenser
increases with the area of the inter-
, leaving plates opposite each other.
The inductance of coil increases
with the number of turns tapped into

TUNING ONE CIRCUIT TO
ANOTHER.

II there is an alternating current
of a given frequency flowing in one
circuit and another circuit contain
ing capacity and inductance is placed
nearby. there will be alternating cur
rent created in the second circuit. AS
a matter of fact this current in the
secondary circuit will be composed
OF two currents of two frequencfes.
One frequency is that of the alter
mating current flowing in the primary
circuit. while the other is the natural
frequency of the secondary circuit.
If these two frequencies do not coin
eide the secondary circuit Is out OF
resonance or out OF tune with the
urinary. and the two currents add
and subtract to produce a current
which is not as great as it might be.
IL, by adjusting the natural frequency
Of the secondary circuit to coincide
with that of the primary current the
two circuits are put in tune. the Sec
oadary current will be a maximum.
Maximum current flows in a secondary
circuit when it is in resonance with
the primary. This is because the two
currents are of the same frequency
In the secondary circuit and always
add together.
The above considerations hold par

station for this purpose. but unless
an extra battery is on hand the re-

The illustration shows a rugged
battery charger especially suited for
charging the battery at home. In
the illustration a cover which fits
over the parts to the left of the meter
is not shown. Probably one of the
most important considerations is that
this outfit is approved by the fire
underwriters.
There is put one moving part-the
armature shown just to the left of
the two magnets. When the battery
is being charged this armature moves

Third Party Killed by Rise
in Price of Farm Products

Special Dispatch to THE NEW YonK HEsaL
LINCOLN. Neb.. March 25.-The '''...d
party movement which started 80 aus
piciously In Nebraska six weeks or so
age, has suddenly collapsed. "A month
ago, the movement was causing vast un-
casiness in the ranks OF both Republi-
cans and Democrats. but today there is
no more uneasiness in either party. A
month ago the third party was being
discussed in the newspapers all over the
state. To-day the movement is almost
forgotten.
A few cents rise in the price OF corn
and wheat, month or so ago, cattle
and hogs, is given the larger amount OF
-~eeit for killing the new party. Lack
or competent leadership, In touch and
sympathy with the rank and file, was
a contributing cause of the collapse OF
the Progressives.
The reaction was out Of all proportion
10 the advance in prices. Farmers who
had been holding their grain sold at the
new prices and got enough to let them
out. Thousands who were practically
bankrupt three months ago when prices
we're at their lowest ebb. were saved by
the increase. Then those farmers. who
had been backing the new third party.

when A. c. Townley. head and
founder OF the Non-Partisan League.
came to Nebraska and made a public
speech against the third party move
ment the progressives lost the last of
their farmer power.
Corn was selling In Nebraska In jan
uary at twenty cents per bushel Then
Il went to thrty-eight cents ut the
country elevators. The advance on the
Chicago market was only about 40 per
cent, but this Chicago rise was an ad-
vance OF nearly 100 per cent. in Me-
braska. The overhead" was just the
same to the farmers when corn sold at
thirty-eight cents as Il was when corn
was only twenty cents per bushel.
When the farmers found themselves
getting nearly twice as much for their
corn as they had been getting, they
got out of the third party movement, left
the ranks OF the discontented.
With the discontented farmers con-
tented. with the Non-partisan League
descrting In body and with stockrais-
ers able to obtain money all talking
prosperity, the third party dwindied
away over night.

To Scrap Eight ships.

While America must tear thirteen
ships from the stocks, japan Will have
to destroy only eight, for six OF the
ships OF her big navy program had not
been even laid down and were still In
the paper" stage. OF the vessels which
must be scrapped or transformed, only
two. the Kaga and Tosa, are well along,
being about 70 per cent. complete. The
Akagi and Amagi. battle cruisers. were
about to be launched. The battle cruis-
ers Takao and Atago were laid down
only last November and so not much
work has been done on them. The XII
and Dwarf are probably in no better
shape. Thus 1t Is that all contracts for
these ships may be cancelled without
the tremendous sums being spent on
them that were wasted In the case OF
tho American ships.
The active Japanese fleet will be very
powerful no ship carrying less than
IA inch guns. The two largest battle
ships in the world, the Negato and
Mutsu. will be in this fleet. as will four
other very powerful battleships. COM

proposed some time ago that other ships
on this list be converted into tankers
and movable oil depots, and 1t would
seeem that this is the likely course.
Already the Japanese possess a fast
cruiser force far superior to that of the
United States, for at present they are
understood 10 have eight such ships and
we have none. 1t is expected that within
a few years the Japanese VIII have near-
ly twenty-five fast cruisers. and we may
have ten-that is, IL Congress provides
the funds with which to complete the
ten ships we have now on the stocks.
However. Japan is sitting tight until
our Senate passes the naval treaty.
Construction has been stopped on the
new ships. but no move has been made
to scrap either these or the older ships
which are to be done away with. And
while no work is being done which
might be considered a violation OF the

of Japan's navy within the confines Of
the treaty. Also various improvements
in harbors. defenses, communications
and war plans will have to be under
taken.
The beginning OF such a program in
wolves an expenditure for this year
nearly equaling that of last, when the
big navy program was on In full swing.
This is in great contrast to the attitude
taken by the American Congress, which
proposes to wreck the efficiency of the
United States Navy instead OF at
tempting TO obtain its greatest value.
Expanding wireless System.
In many respects, there is threat in
these measures to the United States.
Throughout the mandate islands the sys-
tenn OF wireless communication Is to be
extended to such an extent that 1t will
be impossible for an American fleet to
make its way unnoticed to the Philip
pines or Guam.
The future war plans of the Japanese
are understood to be to allow an enemy
to reach his initial objective, then cut off
his supplies with a superior number OF
fast ships, and so defeat him. Already
Japan has an adequate force with which
to carry out this plan In her four battle
cruisers and eight light cruisers. Then
back of this force stands a small but
individually powerful battleship squad
ron of six vessels, including all the larg-
est ships in the Japanese navy and
number of arInored cruisers Of lesser
value. Coupled with this action. the
main plan is understood to include a war
on enemy commerce by fast cruisers. -
Perhaps when the lessons given by the
German Emden are fully recognized In
America the significance OF these moves
will be understood. Our fleet might be
able to make the Philippines in the
event of a war with Japan, but It could
| not base there. Fuel would have to be
| brought to II from the Djamba oil fields,
and each ship would have to return to
| Honolulu to dock, as we are allowed no
basing facilities in this sphere. This
would mean that Japanese cruisers
would not allow tankers to refuel our
4 ships, and that II one ship needed dock
ing the whole feet would have to be
moved, for large number OF Japanese
battle cruisers could easily destroy a
small detached number of our battle
ships badly In need of docking and re-
pairs. In the meantime our commerce
would be destroyed.
Thus might our fleet be worn down
and Japan be successful in a war
