Snap Fasteners Are
Aid to Experimenter

The small snap fasteners for dresses
that are sold In five and ten-cent stores
for five cents dozen may be put to
great many uses by the radio expert
menter.
The accompanying sketches show a
few of the uses to which they can be
adapted. These fasteners make very
neat binding posts and by using diff
ferent sizes and different halves of the
fasteners the set can be made so that
it is impossible TO connect it up wrong
By soldering one-half of the fastener
on the phone cord and the other half
on the panel with a common pin as
shown, the phones can be plugged in
quickly and If the cord gets strong
pull they will release and not pull the
set off the table. A very good multi
point switch can be made by pinning
to the panel as many points as wanted
in circle and also one at the center
of the circle, and then with the two
halves of the fastener soldered onto
strip of copper at a distance equal to
the radius of the circle a switch arm
can be made. The fastener in the cen
ter makes a good swivel and when the
right point of the switch is found in
tuning the other fastener can be

A Selective Portable.

There is an unlimited field for good
single tube portable set circuits. Any
regenerative type of circuit will give
good volume on single tube. The
main problem is to use a type of tun-
ing unit that will permit maximum Sc
lectivity. In the hook-up illustrated a
variocOupler is used In conjunction
with a variable condenser for the tun-
ing unit-the rotor supplies the feed
back of the plate circuit.
The circuit is not primarily intended
for loop aerial reception, although one
end can be connected to the antenna
post, the other end left open, and
a regular ground connection used.
When so connected, some very good
results are possible. If straight wire
aerial is used, a length of 80 feet can
be thrown over convenient tree. Of
course this will not give the best re-
suits. If time is available, the wire
should be suspended between insulat-
ors.
A copper rod driven into moist
ground will give sufficient ground con-
nectiOn. This can be improved by
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1923-07-27
soaking the ground around the rod with

soaking the ground around the rod with
salt water.
The tuning condenser should have
capacity Of .001 microfarad, to cover the
increased wave length range. The rO-
tating plates should be connected to
the ground side. A blocking condenser
Of .O05 microfard capacity Is inserted
in the rotor circuit so as to avoid short
circuiting the batteries through the
plate circuit.
The grid leak can be of the variable
type, but this Is left to the option OF
the maker The tube is detectOr, al
though hard tubes such as the C301A
can be substituted. In such a case Ii
may be advisable to increase the plate
battery voltage. A cushion mounting
for the tube socket Is recommended, as
a portable set gets considerable knock
ing around that does not help preserve
the tube filament
The rheOstat resistance will depend
on the type of tube used. If a UV199.
C3O1A, or UV201A is used 20 to %
ohm rheostat is required Otherwise
the standard 6-ohm rheostat is suffi-
cient.

Conditions Reported From All Parts

From as early as April II. when

there anything but optimism in the

able conditions have bound the early
seeding data with the conditions Of
the crop today. There were no set

the track they took was so small

Pointers for Those
in Beginners Class

To obtain the most out of newly
purchased receiving set, it is necessary
to learn few rudimentary principles
of operation. What to do and what not
to do should be memoriZed.
If you have crystal detector, keep
the fingers off the mineral. Handling
1t leaves greasy surface and it is
more apt to collect dust. 1t is best to
keep 1t covered and if you must ham
die the crystal, do so with a pair of
tweezers.
Don't attempt to find out what is in
side Of your head receivers. Many poor
results can be traced to the fact that
the individual was too inquisitive and
opened the receivers by unscrewing the
caps. In doing so, you will bend the
diaphragms and almost surely ruin the
phones. The diaphragms are made of
very thin metal and are easily bent If
handled. You may also injure the
winding, as il is wound with wire as
fine as hair.
If you have purchased complete
set, don't handle it roughly, as you may

As to the truthfulness of adven-
turers, perhaps we are all more or less
truthful when we try to be good. But
there are two kinds of adventures
who need sharply watching. The
worst is r. G. Selous. Once he lee
tured to amuse the children at a
founding hospital, and when he came
to single cOmbats with wounded
lion or mad elephant he was forced
to mention himself as one of the per-
sons present. He blushed Then he
would race through hair-lifting story
of the fight, and in an apologize man
ner, give all the praise to the ele-
plant, or the lion lately deceased.
Surely nobody could suspect him of
any merit, yet all the children saw
through him for transparent fraud,
and even We grownups felt the better
for meeting so grand a gentleman.
The other sort of liar. who does not
understate his own merits, is Jim Beck
wourth. He told his story, quite truth
fully at first, to journalist who took
it down in shorthand. But when the
man gaped with admiration at the
merest trifles, Jim was on his mettle
testing this persons powers of belief,
which were absolutely boundless. At
ter that, of course. he hit the high
places striking the facts about once in
twentyfour hours, and as one reads
the book, one can catch the thud
whenever he hit the truth.

other American, Doctor Bodkfn, was
for some years prime minister of
Makualand. an Arab Sulanate. Among
British Adventures, necessary to
leave out, Caid Bolton is one of four
successive British commanders-in-chief
to the Moorish sultans. Colonel Tomp-
