mospheric conditions, when the
signal Is good and bad on alternate
nights.
Real Causes Explained.
Also, much good reception, such
as Los Angeles on one tube, has
been attributed to Jack Frost, but
while the boy should get all credit
due. there is another contributing
factor.
This factor is radiation and re-
radiation from neighboring receiv-
fng, aerials.
1t was observed during a recent
New York broadcast, whcih was
heard by millions, that the signal
from the New York station, re-
ceived in Pittsburgh, continued
normally strong until about ten
minutes before the service hour.
Then the signal gradually dropped
off until the. volume had decreased
to about 20 per cent of it's original
value. After the service, the signal
rose suddenly and continued as
usual thereafter.
All Reradiate Waves.
1t was learned after checking UP
data on transmitting current and
conditions at the sending station.
that the energy had been absorbed
by the thousands OF sets tuned to
that station.
The squeal Of the radiating set
Is not the only offender. Every set
on the end of an outside aerial is
guilty OF interference.
When a set reradiates, it does
not, necessarily, have to be oscillat-
ing. Any set tuning an outside
aerial, re-radiates the received wave
with additional characteristics, or
distortion,

NEW YORK, March SIN the
next few years / confidently expect
almost revolutionary changes in
broadcast transmission and recep-
ton. The transmitter Of the future,
instead Of employing a 1000 watts
or 80. will be rated In tens or even
hundreds Of killowatts. Instead Of
radiating at one frequency, it win
employ several, adapted to each Of
the several tones it Is intended to
cover.
The present band Of broadcasting
frequencies is wholly unsuited for
transmission ranges Of a hundred
miles or over, owing to the severe
fading inseparable from their use,
and will be supplemented by the Ox-
tensive use Of transmission fire.
Quencies both materially above and
below those at present employed.
For example, a considerable use
will be made Of frequencies between
80, 900 and 5000 kilocycles 90 to 100
meters), and sharply directional
transmission and reception, made
practical by the use Of such FIRE.
quencies, will also come into ex-
tensive use. There will be fewer
broadcasting stations than at pres
ent, and the preferred location will
not be, as at present, in the heart Of
q large city, but well outside.
The receiver Of the near future
will be self-contained, with but a
single control. and viii employ radio
frequency amplification. Regenera.
ton, and also the various ingenious
schemes from naturalization Of tube
capacity effects, will disappear, for
the tube Of the future will have no

each raised a litter of seven with as
good gains.
The biggest feature of the Boys
Sow and Litter Club is the fact that
the boys who completed the project,
conscientiously studied the business
of hog raising. Practically every
one of them know all the essentials
of the hog industry, and all of them
have a very good start in founda-
ton stock, as well as feed, and they
should be producing hogs on a good
commercial scale when the market
starts climbing, which is due pretty
soon.

age. Last year the boys who had the
younger gifts were somewhat handi-

FROID BOY WINS lST

The winners of the Boys Sow and

Thirty boys competed in this con
test and practically all of them rails
ed litters of pigs of the very highest
type, most of which are being kept
in their respective communities for
foundation breeding stock.
The boy who won first, although
he did not have as large a gain per
day as some of the other boys, sue
reeded in raising a litter of ten pigs
which weighed 95 pounds the first

'Tnued six months, would easily have
been in the ton litter class, with the
same treatment it had the first 95
days.
Ralph Bjorge, of Culbertson, the
boy who won second, showed the
best weight gain. His pigs weighed
LOS pounds apiece at 105 days, which
