UNDERWAY WITH
PROSPECTS GOOD
Wheat Harvest Begins-Settiemen
OF Strike Necessary for Local
Prosperity

The entrance of August found this
section on the Threshold of the har-
vest season. Already threshing of
barley has commenced. much OF the
crop having been cut and shocked

On several ranches the cutting OF
wheat starts this week. Many exper
fenced farmers state that prospects
for good yields were never better. To
the casual observer, the agrieultur-
al district is now at its best and as
one eastern visitor expressed II the
Filler section is a yeritable corico-
pia."

THREADED RUBBER
FOR RADIO BATTERY

ESeparators for nse in radio "a
batteries must be absolutely uniform
in thickness aud density, otherwise the
plates become spotted and many trou
bles arise - says the Radio News in an
article entitled 1.-THE ~ battery
problem These requirements cannot
be more satisfactorily met than by the
threaded rubber insulation used in both
Willard automobile and radio bat
teries,' says>H. f. Kendall, local vii.
lard battery dealer.
''Thc separators so commonly used
in such batteries, continued Mr.. Ken
dali care natural products and despite
all sorts of treatments given them they
can meyer be as uniformly porous and
as even in composition as manufac-
turcd product, every stage of whose
making can be accurately controlled.
"The thousands of tiny threads in
willard threaded rubber insulators
serve as minnie wicks which conduct the
electroiytc from one plate to the other
much more evenly and quickly than il
could pass through wooden sheet how
ever thin IL is cut. And there lies the
secret of the success which Willard
Radio a and 'B will enjoy They
prevent spotting of plates and other
troubles too well known to the cxper-
fenced operator. They permit a uniform

makes a uniform flow of current pos
