Novel Adapter Puts Dry Cell
Tube in Standard Socket

The Suneco Adapter-This is used
to adapt the aerotron tube to the
standard type of socket. 1t consists
OF block of black insulative material
nodded into nickeled brass SHE'LL and
is of practically the same dimensions
as the base of type wv tube.
The leads for readjusting the connec-
tions to correspond with the binding
posts on the standard socket are brass
plugs, nodded solidly into the insula-
tive cylinder; the holes drilled in the
upper ends of these plugs are of the
right size and arranged properly to
take the terminals of the aerotron
tube. Extensions from the lower end
correspond to those of the wv tube
terminals. Manufactured by the Sun

High Voltage Battery Has
Strips for Connexions

Kwikrlite "B" Battery instead of
the usual thumb screw terminals for
obtaining various voltages in the "B"
battery circuit this battery has
adopted the use of brass strips / y
inches long and 3B inches wide, ex-
tending from it's waX-sealed top. The
holes in the strips may be used for
making connections. or the ends may
be clamped over lead wire and soldered.
The battery dimensions are 4x6ss

nency and If so at what plato voltage;
can it be used in the Armstrong supcr-
r'generative hook-up?-J, M, II.
Answer-If you arc getting the
noises that you describe you are un-
doubtedly getting regeneration and,
consequently. it is only a matter of
caretu! tuning in order to get results.
You will find that the position of the
secondary coil of your variocoupler
and the adjustment Of the grid vario
meter are extremely critical, and that
the slightest movement of these two
Instruments one way or the other will
throw the station out of tune.
good way to tune this circuit is
to have your tube filament full on and
then adjust the grid variometer until
you hear a slight whistle in the tele-
phones, which varies in pitch from a
high shrlll tone to q low tone and
then finally dies out to begin again
with low tone and end with the
shrill tone.
The position for the variometer is
III the dead spot between these two
whistles. After that has been OBJ
tanned, reduce the filament current by
means of your rheostat and then adj
just the plate variometer until the best
signals are obtained. In response to
the specific questions contained in
your letter: l. 1t will be best to
completely shield the variometers from
each other and the varocoupler. 9.
Using a WD11 tube for a detector, it
is best to vary the plate voltage until
the correct value is obtained 3. The
grid condenser should be .O0025 MID
capacity, and the grid lead 4 megohm.
d. These values are average. Varia-
In getting slightly better results.
s.. This tube can be used for ampli-
tication purposes with o-frequency,
and forty-fve volts can be put in its
plate circuit when so used. I doubt
very much whether it will give good
results as radio-frequency amplifier,
but cannot say definitely on this
point, as have not yet had an oppor-
tunity OF trying it out, but hope to
do so in the near future. This tube
cannot be used successfully with the
super-regenerative system.

: The past lev i,' years IS interesting

The past year has proved difficult
for most farmers and the present
winter has not been profitable Tor
most sea food dealers. Prices OF
fertilizer, agricultural implements
and machinery, it is claimed, have
not reduced in cost/in proportion TO
prices received by farmers for their
produce. During 1920 and part Of
1919 farmers were receiving $12 and
S13 per barrel containing bushels
Of white potatoes. while during the
past year the prevailing prices have
been from 81 TO $3.50 per bushel.
At the same time IL Is claimed the
prices for fertilizer and labor have
decreased only about so per cent
A number OF Gamers came into
1921 with large stocks carried over
from previous years of canned goods

at all during the past year and very
few were operated at a profit.

rapidly approaching a stage when
the American government will make
known its Views on Siberia and the
powers will be called on to reach a
decision on this question. Regard

sometime ago the State Department
received an official report that sup

that is. arrangements were made to
send the Wrangel anti-Bolshevik
forces to Siberia TO cooperate with
the Japanese. Since the Wrangel
forces were supported by the French
it was believed that this plan was
beink carried out by an arrangement
between the French and the Jap
anese.

stand that she should withdraw her
troops for the former country has
always insisted on a free hand in
Siberia.
This, in substance is understood 10
be the position OF America on the
continued Japanese military Occu-
patton in Siberia.
!. That Japan has no right TO keep
her troops there.
2. That Japan by continuing her
military occupation Of Siberia is vio-
lating the open door.
3. That Japan by this occupation
has at least in effect violated the
agreement under which the Ameri-
can and other Allied troops inter
vened in Siberia in August, 1918. "a

whereby the Allied forces were tC

The Japanese position in defense
Of her troops remaining in Siberia
is this:
1. That Japan must guar
against tho spread Of Bolshevism
from SlDerla.
.. That Japan must protect the
interest Of her nationals, who have
been established in the maritime
province Of Siberia. where the Jap
anfs- have been withdrawn.
3. That Japan will withdraw
completely from Siberia as soon as
there is a government there which
can give satisfactory guarantees foi
the safety Of Japan's interests anC
