Much Troublesome and
Needless Interference

users or regenerat1ye radio rece1v-
ing sets should be very careful in reg
ulating the filament current on the
detector tubes Of their receiving out
fits.
A regenerative receiver acts as a
miniature transmitting station and
great deal of troublesome and need
less interference can be created in
neighborhood by user of this type of
receiver who Is not acquainted with
the facts regarding their operation.
The wailing, bowling noise sometimes
heard on receiving set is, in many
instances, due to the users of a regen-
erative set tuning their dials in an
effort to tune in broadcasting station.
Much of this interference can be
eliminated by burning the filament on
the detectOr tube at a maximum bril-
liancy necessary to receive the desired
signals. Users of this type of equip
ment, after tuning in their station,
should reduce the filament current as
much as possible. BY observing this
rule they will not only prolong the life
Of their tubes and batteries, but will
make receiving conditions much better
for their neighbors who may be trying
to tune In at the same time.
The amount Of energy radiated by
regenerative receiver is directly pro-
portionate to the brilliancy of the fila
ment in the detector circuit.

Usually little thought is given to this
end of the equipment. The receiver
itself may be beautiful job, carefully
soldered and wired, but frequently the
aerial is sadly neglected.
Here are few things TO remember
The aerial should always be in a
straight line. Some beginners have re-
stricted spaces for aerials and they
think that by running the aerial in the
form of square all around the edge
of the roof they will get better results
Others erect three poles on the roof
and run single wire in the form of a
triangle. This is a waste of time and
wire.
Run 1t straight away and not over
lOO feet long. Remember that If 1t is
too high it will pick up more static,
and If 1t is too low, the signals will
not be as good on long distance. A
happy medium must be hit somewhere
in between.
1he lead-in wire should be taken
from one of the ends and not from the
middle. If the latter way of taking
OH the aerial is used the effectual
length of the aerial will be just about
cut In half. In other words, use an in
verified L aerial and not T aerial.
If 1t is not possible to erect the
aerial all in one length and In the same
direction, 1t is permissible to make
two or three-wire aerial. However, it
must be remembered that two wires

Some Suggestions on
Laying Out Radio Set

First decide definitely what kind of
set is to be built Purchase the best
quality of apparatus, having the cleo
trical characteristics that the particu-
lar set requires. Take special care to
select parts of good mechanical con-
struction as WELL
Lay the instruments on the table,
trying different arrangements of the
parts until an arrangement is found
with symmetrical appearance, and
with as short wires to the tuning, grid
and plate circuits as can be secured.
When the proper layout is found
scale laid alongside of the parts will
give an approximate idea of the size
panel it will be necessary to buy. Try
to arrange the parts to fit standard
size panel, which may be purchased at
almost any radio store.
Particular care should be taken in
the wiring of the set to keep grid and

Flaxseed Production
Will Show Increase
Prices Fluctuate to Disad-
vantage of the Growers.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
There is an increasing spread be-
tween the production of fiaXseed in
the United States and the demand for
home consumption, according to the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture. Until 1908 this country produced,
on an average, more than 1T consumed
and therefore was able to export q
surplus in nearly every year. Begin
ming with 1909, however, our produc-
ton began to decline, while our re-
Quirements began to increase with
population. Net imports consequently
have increased. The reduction in con-
sumption in 1917 and 1918 was due to
war restrictions, and that in 1920 and
1921 to business depression. 1t is
fairly certain that the figures for 1922,
when available, will show an increase
In consumption.
AS the United States changed in po-
sitiOn from an exporter to an importer
of faxseed, the farm price of flax in
creased materially. In 1907, when a
surplus of over 100000 bushels was
exported, the farm price of fiaxseed
on December 1 averaged 80 cents a
bushel. In 1908, when production and
consumption were practically equal,
the farm price of fiaxseed was $1.1S
a bushel. In 1909, when 1857, 900
bushels were imported, the farm price
rose to $1.53 bushel.
In many localities comparatively
small volume of flaXseed is marketed !;
and because the price fluctuates wide
ly, fiaxseed usually is bought Oh a
wide margin, and the grower often
does not receive the full value Of his
crop. This condition could be i'm
proved if several growers of flaxseed
in such localities would combine their
deliveries and thus market carload
or more at one time.

Farm Implements Should
Be Placed Under Cover

The average farmer does not get full
value out of the most Of the farm i'm
plements that he buys for at least two
reasons. One reason Is that he has
no place to house them, hence they
weather-that is, they get wet and rust
or decay. Having implements lay out
in the weather a season is worse on
them than one seasons use.
In too many cases the writer has
seen farm implements such as plows,
cultivators, binders, and many other
implements setting In the field where
last used, and many times, the shovels
of cultivators are even left in the
ground.
Before using these implements the
next season the shovels of cultivators
and the various bright parts of the
implements have to be secured with
sand rock before using. This not only
takes off a layer of metal but requires
a great deal Of time. If one will just
think moment he will know that the
work of securing the implements and
getting them ready for use is much
more work than to have cleaned and
creased these bright metal parts with
axle grease and painted the wood and
other metal parts when through using
the implements. By doing this the air
and water is kept from the metal and
wood, hence. the implements will fare
well even If left out in the weather.

each 81 feet in length are not the
same as single wire 100 feet long.
There may be 100 feet of wire in the
aerial, but the effective length will not
be for the full 100 feet.
Be sure to insulate the aerial from
all surrounding objects. If the lead-in
wire comes into contact with any OF
the surrounding objects there will be
decided tendency for the current to
leak off, and for the best results, es-
pecially on DIX signals, advantage
must be taken of every little thing.
The ground connection is fully as
important as the aerial, as it forms
part Of the open circuit. The best
ground connection is to the cold water
pipe, as this is the shortest and most
direct lead to the earth. The hot wa
ter pipes and the radiator system Will
do If necessary, but there are many
more joints In system Of this kind,
and as these pipe joints are made up
with white or red lead there will be q
high resistance, which Is to be avoided.
Scrape the cold water pipe until 1t
shows a shiny finish and then either
use one OF the ground clamps that may
be purchased, or, better yet, take about
ten turns of the ground wire around
this pipe and solder them in place. II
the ground clamp is used, this also
should be soldered to the pipe. Solder
all connections In both the aerial and
the ground for the best results.

I'D YOU wish to use and have assem-
bled the set ready for wiring, the fol-
lowing suggestion will help you in
accomplishing speedy and easy way
to wire your set correctly the first
time.
Cut out the diagram of your hook
up and tack it onto piece Of card
board just large enough to take the
diagram; next take piece of thin
tracing paper, same size, and tack
over diagram.
Decide next what wires should be
nut in first so as TO avoid any aero
batic stunts of soldering other wires
later on.
Now here is the stunt: Every time
you attach wire to your set trace
it off the diagram in red ink or
crayon, being sure first before you
do so that it represents the progress
of your work. Repeat this process
until the diagram has been complete
ly traced.

Timely Suggestions.
In order that stem-end rot and losses
In transit due to other causes may be
reduced, farmers should make every
effort to carry out the following sug-
gestions at harvest season:
ID If possible avoid working
while the vines are wet.
(2.) Never permit labor to handle
rotten melons In the field and then
work with fruit for shipment.
CD Never permit clipper to handle
or to touch knife to rotten melons In
the field.
(4.) Never permit clipper to cut
into melons while pushing knife
through the stem.
(5) Never permit clipper to stand
melons on end to mark them In the
field.
co. Insist on careful handling by
the tote boys and wagon men.
T.) Pad wagons thoroughly in or
der to avoid nail or splinter punctures,
cuts, and bruises.
(8.) Load on the day melons are
clipped, in clean, dry car, the walls of
which have been papered. Use dry
straw for bedding. If possible, pad
ends of car, although not in such a
way as to obstruct ventilators. These
should be fastened open.
co. Handle carefully when I'M
loading melons from wagons and
packing. Do not allow labor to stand
or sit on melons.
QOO Reject melons that do not
have firm, green stem, or that show
sunscald or bad anthracnose marking.
CID Apply stem treatment as
described in Farmers Bulletin 1877,
reclipping stems to firm green surface
before applying the disinfectant paste.

plate wires separate and away from
the liability of sQuealing and broad
tuning to a minimum.
The filament circuit may be of al
most any length, provided the wires
that carry the current are large
enough to prevent an excessive drop
in voltage. Number IA, or the square
bus wire sold for wiring sets, is very
good for this purpose.
The output circuit of q two-stage
amplifier should never be brought near
to the grid circuit of the detector
tube, as bowling almost inevitably re-
suits. More cases of bowling ampli-
fiers can be traced to improper placing
of the wires than to any other one
cause.
In wiring a set don't try to do too
many things at once. Start at the in
put end and work across to the out
put end. When connecting q set with
vacuum tubes, connect the filament
wires to the sockets and rheostats
first, and then follow from input to
output circuits.
grounded copper sheet on the back
of the panel where the condenser, or
variometer is mounted is of consider
able value both as shield against the
effects of the operators hands when
tuning, and as convenient place to
solder such wires as need to be
grounded. Especial care should be
taken to cut out around all screw and
shaft holes, or any other places where
the metal parts of condensers or other
instruments may touch the shield.

APPEALED TO MANS VANITY
Brightly Colored Beads, in Some
Shape, Have Been Popular in All
Ages and Countries.

Beads are one of the oldest wit
neSses TO the vanity Of mankind.
The Oldest beads were simply stones
with holes through them, which, owing
70 their bright color or peculiar shape,
took the fancy of the finder, who
threaded them on strip of hide or
fiber. Later, when we became more
civilized, beads made of wood carved
into fantastic shapes were in favor.
Some beautiful examples of both kinds
can be seen in the British museum.
Uncivilized races have a passion for
stringing together various objects as
beads. Human teeth, brightly colored
insects, seeds and even whales teeth,
are worn in this way.
The word bead comes from "bede,"
the old English word for prayer. 1t has
an interesting origin. In olden times,
as person repeated his prayers they
were counted by ticking off one by one
a string of small pierced balls which
were threaded together, and in time
these balls came to be called beads.

Pea Aphis Will Attack
Three Important Crops

The pea aphis is seriously infesting
the entire cannery pea section In STAN
islaus county, CAL, and lighter in
festation extends over the Santa Clara
valley, according to reports received
by the United States Department of
Agriculture. This insect is also doing
considerable damage to alfalfa In the
vicinity of Topeka, Kans. The Kan
sas infestation is over a region where
the growing Of garden peas is rather
extensive. The association of alfalfa
and peas is suggested as being favor
able for the multiplication of this in
sect.
Infestations by this pea aphis were
so serious on spinach in the Santa
Clara valley, Cal, that seven can
nerfes ceased canning this vegetable
this spring. The damage was not so
much the infestation Of the aphis as
the presence of such enormous num-
bers of the syrphid larvae which prey
upon them from the spinach In the
washing process.

Clear Moss From Fruit
Trees bv Proper Spray

Moss can be quite readily cleared
from the trees. The solution of strong
bordeaux is one of the best sprays.
The old formula of lime sulphur and
SALT where the same weight of salt is
used in the spray as of lime and sui
phur, namely 10 pounds to so gallons
OF the concentrated spray, is also very
efficient in removing moss. But sub
stance which is very good to use is
common lye. The I've can be used
straight by dissolving in plain water,
or 1t can be used in the lime sulphur
spray. The rate to use is about one
pound can of I've for every six or seven
gallons of spray. 1t cleans off the
moss quite readily, seems to soften the
bark and gives it clean, bright APP
pearance.
