pretty appearance, it lis true, but I'm
fortunately In radio, pretty is as
pretty does, and it takes more than
work.
One of the so-called advantages OF
the cage Is that high tension corona
losses are reduced to q minimum. If
the amateur is using undamped Oscil-
| lations, that is, using a vacuum tube
transmitter, he need not be concerned
about corona losses. However, II a
damped or spark transmitter Is used,
the cage antenna will be advisable.
Also uniform current distribution Is
secured by the use Of the cage an
tenna. This Is not the case with the
f1at-top antenna, where the currents
are not equal, the outer carrying more
current than the inner wires. From
the foregoing 1t may be said that the
cage antenna is to be preferred to the
flat-top only because Of the reduction
Of the hIgh-voltage corona losses and
because of the uniform current distri-
button.
1t has been shown that antennae have
certain well defined directional char
acteristics. The one having the most
clearly defined characteristics is the
loop antenna shown in Figure 8.
In actual practice very satisfac-
tory type of loop antenna for recep-
tional purposes consists of eight turns
of No, 16 wire, spaced One-eighth, and
wound on a frame 36 inches square.
The fundamental wave length of this
antenna is approximately $50 meters.
Obviously loop antennae need not
be square. They may be triangular,
circular, or any closed shape, and
their linear dimensions are not nee
essarily fixed. Due to their small
dimensions, the amount of energy
picked up by them is also small, and
therefore they should be used only
with several stages of radio frequency
application before the detector. See
Figure 8, In which the loop Is shown
with only detector.
In the hook-up, L is the loop anten-
ma, and forms the inductance in the
oscillating circuit. @ is the variable
condenser connected across the loop
terminals and is used to tune the loop
to the proper wave length.
A loop antenna in this manner has
extremely sharp directional character
istics and receives signals only from
stations in the plane Of the loop. That
is, the loop must be parallel to the
direction Of travel of the wave sent
out by the transmitter.
Many good circuits have recently
been devised whereby loop antennae
are used with success In eliminating
static interference. This elimination
is accomplished partly by the small
linear dimensions Of the loop and

ANTENNAE OF OTHER
TYPES ARE: DESCRIBED
Cage, Loop and Umbrella Forms
Have Each Certain Advan-
tages and Special Uses.

Some Of the newer generation of
redio amateurs may have been led to
think that the cage antenna is more
efficient than other forms. One of
the arguments advanced for their use
is that they have been adopted by the
United States navy on all ships. There
is good reason for the adoption Of
this type of antenna for the navy, but
1t is not because of the great efficiency
of the cage type. In fact, the only rea-
son the cage type is used at all in the
navy is because Of the fact that it
would be difficult for an enemy shell
to carry away the antenna with q
single shot
There seems to be a good deal of
misinfOrmation on the merits of the
cage-type antenna. They make

PUREBRED BULL IS FAVORED
Farmers and Dairymen Cannot Afford
to Continue Use Of Scrub or
Grade Animals.

Farmers and dairymen cannot con
tinue to use scrub or grade bulls, says
A. G. Baer, professor Of Dairy Hus-
bandry at the A. and M. college
Profitable dairying depends on, Q)
good breeding; (2) wedding out poor
cows; 80 good feeding.
A purebred bull will improve all
dairy herds which are not now headed
by purebred male, Mr.. Baer says.
Farmers or dairymen can very often
club together and buy bull which
costs more than an ordinary purebred
male. Whenever possible, herd bull
should be from tested dam with a
good record.

can be fastened either to small post
or to peg driven into the ground.
Due to the fact that the wires OF
the umbrella-type antenna cover a
large area of ground, the capacity of
the antenna is very large. The total
inductance, however, is only a little
greater than that Of the vertical por-
ton of the antenna.
The umbrella-type antenna has not
found very wide field of application
in commercial or amateur telegraphy
During the war 1t was used to some
extent in portable army sets. Due to
its directional characteristics, which
are nil-or in other words, energy Is
radiated equally in all directions-it
has found some favor with some high
powered commercial stations for trans
oceanic communication.

One of the most important app.i

The umbrella-type antenna, as Illus
trated In Figure 10, receives its name
from its general shape and similarity
to an umbrella. Referring to the fig
ure it will be seen that this type Of
antenna consists of number Of wires
connected at the upper end of a YER
teal mast and radiating from this
point In several directions. The lead
in is taken from the central point of
the antenna system.
In general, length of the radiating
wires or ribs" of the umbrella is
about two-thirds the total height of
the mast, although this dimension is
not fixed, and a different ratio may
be employed with success. AS can be
seen in the illustration, insulators are
placed about One-third of the way from
the top Of the RIB" wires, so that the
actual antenna will be some distance
above the ground. The overall length
Of the RIB" wires, including the guy
wire, should be several times as long
as the mast Is high. This guy wire
