este acto del Fiscal Federal habia
sido interpretado en- ell sentido de que
estaba encaminado a perseguir a las
personas que intentasen dirigir al

blemente aquellos ciudadanos que es-

de aver cambiando impresiones con
el notable abagado y miembro del

Nos manifesto el seiior Coll que
el dudaba que el Fiscal Federal esta-
bleciese accion alguna en- ese SEN
lido, puesto que el no veia un medic
legal adecuado para despojar de su
ciudadania a los portorriquefos que
la adquirieron por disposition de
una Ley del Congreso.
''Los portorriquenos-nos dijo el
Sr. Coll-son ciudadanos americanos
por raz6n de su nacimiento v no por

dicion de ciudadanos fue al aprobar-

que los ciudadanos, colectivamente,
que habian nacido en- esta isla, en- la

Siguio diciendonos ell Sr. Coll Y

Use of Fertilizers Aids
Apple Growing in Ohio

The use of high heterogeneous fer
tilizers, according to the Ohio Expert
ment station, on the billy lands of
southern Ohio has practically revolu-
tionized the apple growing industry of
that section.
While fruit In order to grow and
produce vigorously, must have access
to liberal supplies of ammonia phos-
phoric acid and potash, it is the first
mentioned plant food that most often
is lacking and needs to be furnished
in liberal quantities. The Importance
of attending to this need properly is
indicated by the fact that upon am
monia depends the condition of the
foliage, the vigor Of twig growth, and
the formation of fruit buds.
In the sections of Ohio mentioned,
the application of ammonia fertilizers
has doubled and trebled the yield Of
fruit. Ordinarily the fertilizer is scat
tered on the ground under the outer
ends of the branches at the rate of
three or four ounces for each year of
the trees age.

F.rmers Are Being Urged to
Meet Needs of Domestic
Market for Grain.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Because the foreign demand for
durum wheat is falling oft and the do
nestle demand Is on the increase,
farmers are urged by the United States
Department of Agriculture to modify
their durum-wheat production to ut
the needs of the domestic market. 1t
appears that almost half of the durum
wheat offered on the market during
1912. 1920, and 1921 contained over
10 per cent of wheat Of other classes,
and was graded as mixed wheat. Firms
engaged in the milling of durum wheat
find 1t difficult to obtain sufficient pure
durum wheat of high quality.
Certain durum wheats, chief among
which is the Pentad or red durum vari-
ETY., have been grown quite extensive
ly, and while absorbed on the foreign
market should be discontinued and re-
placed with varieties suited to do
mestic milling for macaroni manufac-
ture. Two varieties of amber durum,
the Acme and Monad, also are not
desired by the domestic trade because
of the grayish color Of macaroni
they make.
Choice of Varieties.
When making a change of seed,
careful consideration should be given
the choice Of varieties to be used.
The Kubanka is the best-adapted vari-
ETY. for all the varying conditions in
the durum- wheat sections. 1t is
high-yielding wheat, considerably re-
sistant to rust, of good milling quail
ity, and we'll liked for the manufac-
ture of macaroni, the principal use OF
durum -four. The new Nodak variety
recently developed in North Dakota
as a selection from Kubanka is dis
tinct pure strain of that variety, which
is equal or superior to it in yield, rust
resistance, and macaroni-making quail
tiles. Other durum varieties have been
found more productive than Kubanka
in certain sections. Mindum is the
best-yielding variety of durum In Min
nesota. It Is about as resistant to
rust as Kubanka and makes macaroni
of excellent light yellow color. Peliss
is the best-yielding variety in the
higher and dryer sections of Montana
and Wyoming, where dust does not &C.
cur. 1t also gives a good color In
macaroni manufacture .
Nodak Variety Promising.

Take Every Precaution
to Guard Against Worms

If the narrowing pen or house is
thoroughly cleaned with scalding hot
I've water, then disinfected, and the
SOW, especially her udder, is washed
with strong soap suds before being
placed in the narrowing house, the
little pigs will start life without pick
ing up worm eggs that cause so much
loss each year. If those precautions
have not been followed 1t will be nee
essary to worm the pigs later. This is
worthwhile, but much more expensive
and less satisfactory than preventing
worms. The most reliable of all worm
remedies consists of five grains of cal
omel and eight grains of santonin per
100 pounds of live weight. Keep pigs
off feed for II to "a. hours and mix
these drugs carefully and thoroughly
in thick slop. Use every possible pre-
caution to insure each pig getting an
equal share.

Feed Value of Mixture
Superior to Oats Alone

Many farmers are substituting a
mixture of oats, barley and peas for
oats grown separately. They are do
ing this because very often they have
found oats alone to be an improbable
crop, and yet they feel that oats has
an important place in the rotation.
AS result of investigation about
the state, the New York college of
agriculture at Ithaca reports that this
mixture of oats, barley and peas Is
satisfactory as a nurse crop and gives
yield of grain usually higher than
of oats alone. The feeding value of
this mixture, further, is much superior
to oats Another advantage is that the
peas In the mixture, being legume,
will help maintain soil fertility by
utilizing nitrogen In the air.
An objection the college workers
find to the combination is the slight
additional cost of the seed.
In making the mixture, a bushel Of
oats, bushel of barley, and half
bushel of Canada field peas have pro-
duced good results. This mixture
should usually be sown at the rate of
about two and one-half bushels to the
acre, although on rich soils one and
one-half to two bushels may be
enough.

The honeycomb coil must be tapped
as near the center as possible, in con-
struction Of the radio frequency unit
known as the "clarifier" described
last week. Careful inspection OF the
sides of the coil should be made and
the approximate center turn located.
This turn should be pulled out very
slightly and lead soldered on.
The photographs and circuit dia-
gram indicate the best way to as

better the CONSTITUTIONAL details than

Pays to Raise Pigs in Clean
Surroundings.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
Thirteen farmers of Henry county,
Illinois, testify that they have beaten
bad luck" with hogs by raising their
pigs according to a plan that prevents
infection by roundworms and filth
borne diseases. A printed leaf1et,
based on letters from farmers Indoors
ing the Mclean county system of
swine sanitation recently circulated by
the Henry County Farm bureau, gives
convincing evidence that 1t pays to
raise pigs in clean surroundings.
This system, as developed by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, calls for the cleaning of brood
sows and placing them in disinfected
pens at narrowing time. This is to
prevent the newly-born pigs from COM
ing in contact with roundworm infec-
ton.
Then, by keeping the growing pigs
on clean pasture protected from ex-
posture to hog-lot diseases they are
permitted to make the greatest eco
nomical development. with little dan
ger of loss from filth-borne infection.
In his letter one farmer stated that

ton When the tuning condenser is
swung around Ii will at some position
be in tune also with the incoming
signals. If the "clarifier" tube is os-
cillating, the pitch of the notes re-
ceived will change as its tuning con-
denser is swung in and out of tune. If
this tube Is not oscillating the inten-
sity of the signal will change but not
the pitch. Since 1t is desired to stop
all oscillations IN this tube the small
stabilizing condenser is adjusted until
the intensity only is changed, when
the tuning condenser is varied.
Another method consists of utilizing
the feature that all oscillations in q
tube are stopped by touching the grid
terminal of the circuit with the finger.
The stabilizing condenser Is adjusted
so that no plucking noise or click Is
heard when grid terminal Is touched
with the finger. When the stabilizing
condenser is once adjusted tand this
adjustment Is not difficult to obtain
since the setting is not a critical one
If the device is properly constructed),
1t ordinarily need never be touched
again.
In order that tuning be made easy
the "clarifier' tuning dial may be
Celebrated against the receiving set
and then later both 1t and the receiver
may be calibrated for various wave
lengths by jotting down the positions
where each station is found. 1t may
be elaborated against the receiving set
by coupling the output coil near the
grid tuning condenser in the "clari-
fer" one or two clicks will be heard
in the receivers when the two circuits
are In tune with each other. If the
construction has been properly carried
out 1t will be found that the adjust
ment required for a particular wave
length is constant from day to day.
1t will be found that the signal in
tensity is greatly improved since the
device seems, to be a particularly eff
ficient radio frequency amplifier.
Although one tuning dial has been
added it will be found that tuning Is
much easier than before. This is due
to the fact that the adjustments OF
single circuit receiver often change
from time to time depending on the
position of the ticker coil or plate
variOmeter and changes in antenna
constants. In this new plan the re-
sistance in the grid circuit Of the de-
tector tube is much lower since the
antenna resistance is no longer in
Guided, therefore, regeneration Is much
easier controlled and Is NOT as critical
as before. The lower resistance in the
grid circuit of the detector tube in
creases selectivity remarkably. Tests
have shown it very much superior to
double circuit regenerative receivers
in this matter. A wave trap or filter
is not needed since this radio fire.
Quency unit will do the work instead.
There should be no necessity for re-
ceiving any signals on zero beat meth
cd so the quality Of the received sig
nails is also improved and there need
be no squeals in the receivers or loud
speaker. All these items are conducive
to greater distance reception, so the
device seems well worth while, even
if the receiver radiation item is not
considered.

Cooperative Marketing
of Wheat Is Profitable

Cooperative marketing of wheat
can be expected to increase farmers
profits by making savings as result
of preventing duplicate freight hauls,
securing more economical financing of
the marketing processes, preventing
gluts of the market on particular days,
better knowledge of the needs Of the
market and producing the quality and
quantity needed, and securing to farm
ers all of the advantages of better
quality and thus encouraging improved
production. These advantages will be
secured under efficient management,
an adequate volume of business and
observance Of the other things which
are essential for successful co-opera-
tive marketing.

Should Guard Against
Moisture, Corrosion

A good test of porcelain insula-
tor is TO soak it in dye solution and
then crack it open to see how far the
dye has penetrated into the insulator.
This is an indication of how far the
moisture of the air will penetrate the
insulator. The shorter the distance
below the surface the dye penetrates
the more efficient the insulator. How
ever, poor grade porcelain insulator,
such as the cheaper variety of cleats,
may be made considerably superior TO
some grades of the good nodded In
sulators by boiling them in paraffin
until the porcelain is saturated. Hence
il cannot absorb any moisture. Mois-
ture in the insulators and corr osion on
the surface are to be guarded against
in the antenna system.

vide suitable connections to this coil
which are protected from breakage.
Carefully wrapping the terminals with
tape will ordinarily be sufficient. If
Spider-web coil having about so turns
of wire with tap on the middle turn
is more convenient 1t may be used
instead of the honeycomb coil. A
good coil may be made with two wires
wound in parallel on spider-web frame,
each winding having 40 turns of wire.
The outer end of one winding should
connect to the inner end of the other
and to the center tap. A flexible two
conductor cord should be provided to
connect the output coil with the rest
of the circuit.
The center tap of the output coil Is
connected with a flexible cord to the
plus terminal Of the B battery, which
should have the voltage recommended
for the tube to be provided. for am
plifier use. This coil may be laid on
top or inside the cabinet of the
main receiver whichever is nearest the
grid coil of the detector tube.
1t is to be noted that no ground
connections are necessary on this
unit since the regular ground is to be
left on the receiver itself. The an
tenna is disconnected from the re-
ceiver and connected to this circuit.
The antenna and ground binding posts
on the receiver are to be connected
together on single circuit receivers
such as the Grebe GRO or CR-14. On
double circuit receivers these posts
may be connected together also, If it
Is found by experiment that there is
an Improvement by so doing.
1t remains to be shown how the bal
anced output circuit of this tube is
adjusted and how the "clarlfier" Is to
be used in practical cases. After the
connections have been made to this
device, the tube is turned on to nor
NAL brilliancy. The receiving set Is
adjusted to low wave-length. such as
about 300 meters and pair of re-
ceivers or loud speaker connected as
usual. The antenna and ground bind
ing posts on the receiver are con-
nected together. The balance in the
radio frequency tube is obtained by
adjusting the small variable condenser.
This adjustment can be made in
several ways.
