Her record is 575, breaking the old record of 565. The regular college strength system includes bar chinning and other gymnastic stunts.
 Miss Prokosch's athletic prowess. does not stop in the gymnasium. She is swimmer of considerable ability and also has done some notable track work But her real love in the way of exercising Is interpretative danc- Ing.

Large Radio Station
 Set Up at Melbourne
By Associated Press

Melbourne, June 24.-The prelimin- ary work of establishing the man. moth Australian radio station for di- rect communication with Great Brit ain has begun.
 The substations for overseas traffic will be about three times as powerful as any European station today. It will take two years before the central and feeder stations are completed. As a normal performance the chief station will be able to speak direct | over 12.000 miles for the greater part of any working day. 1 Receiving and sending stations to correspond will be built in Canada | during the same period. The plant for the main station will be imported 1 from England, but the plant for the ] feeder stations will be manufactured
 in Australia, one for each of the l states.
 1 The combined cost of all these sta-
 tions will be about $5.000,000. The l main station will consist of trans hitter and receiver terminal 30 miles i apart, the latter including 24 towers,
 each 800 feet high. spread over a | square mile.
 l The wireless rates will be one-third
 less than the present cable rates to Europe.

 Considering the wonderful advance that has been made in radio commit nication during a comparatively lim- ited time, 1t is only logical to ex- pect some development that would insure secrecy for radio messages. It is now announced that one of the foremost radio experimenters of this country has produced a simple de- vice which prevents any but author ized stations from receiving bradcast messages.

AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENT Floyd W. Parsons in the Worlds

 Work.
 The United States must do more fertilizing if our agriculture Is to bs maintained and increased. Prior to tho war, Germany was using 18S pounds of fertilizer on each acre. Great Britain was using 162 pounds per acre, but here In the United States, only about 40 pounds of fer tilizer Is used for each acre of culti- vated land. In 1913 survey was made of the eight countries pro- ducing the largest quantities of po- tatoes per acre and the United States stood the last in the list. Belgium produced 300 bushels an acre, while the United States produced only 92 bushels an acre. Practically the same Is true of our other crops. All such facts go to prove that there Is urgent need here in America for a greater supply of nitrogen. l. we tackle the problem in the right way, we can get this nitrogen by simply stopping the burning of raw coal. In taking such a step we will not only deal a hard blow at our high of living problem. but We will have taken the longest possible step toward the solution of shameful coal mud de which for years has cast doubt on our boasted high degree of national intelligence.
