the kirgisian Steppes. Two stations
already have reached completion on
the River Ohio, in Siberia thhee have
been finished in the KirgiSian
Steppes. in the Nolga region, and two
arc in course of construction in the
Caucasus. These are adapted both
for radio telephony and radio teleg-
raphy.

munication is being carried on by
other government stations in Mos
COW with the British stations at
Carnovan and Leafield and with all
important German, French and Italian

ficient generator lamp of 25 kilo-

it seemed as though the same signal

which seemed to be 5EZ. Is there a

not do either from the standpoint Of
efficiency or from the standpoint Of
fulfillment of the requirements of the

The pipe should be scraped clean
with a file, so as to expose a clean
surface for good contact: the clamp
should be placed around the pipe and
frightened up and the ground wire
holdered to the ground clamp. II
possible the ground clamp should be
soldered to the pipe.
If II has been necessary to use the
heating system pipes for ground
you will find it to your advantage to
connect the heating system pipes with
the water pipes where possible, thus
assuring you or a good ground con-
tact.
Another good method of getting a
good ground connection to the pipe is
to scrape the pipe clean, then wrap
several layers of tinfoil around the
pipe and then clamp the ground clamp
in place. forcing the tinfoil into all
the small depressions Of the pipe and
giving a good ground contact.
Always keep in mind that a good

Vinegar as ordinarily produced on

grapes, peaches or pears should not
be used when their prices are not
prohibitive, says the United States
Department of Agriculture, in Farm
ers' Bulletin 1924, Making Vinegar

issued. Vinegar can be made from
any fruit, or, in fact, from any mate
rial which contains enough sugar and
is in no way Objectionable. Large
quantities of fruits of various kinds
are wasted each year which might
readily be made into vinegar Of good
quality The methods of making vim
egar from all of the more or less
common fruits of the farm are dis
