no matter what the circuit may be.
AS in yesterdays circuit, the signal
is passed through the whole series OF
tubes, in this case three, as q modu
lated radio frequency wave carrying
the signal as an audio frequency en-
velope. which modifies the amplitude
of the radio frequency wave train.
The signal us then stripped from
the radio frequency, carried in the
detector circuit and reduced to an
audio frequency current capable OF
affecting g. telephone receiver or loud
speaker.
1t then passes through the same
process that occurred in yesterdays
circuit. being amplihed by each tube
Of the series in turn in the same sue
cession as that in which the radio
Frequency current was amplined.
Circuits Closely Related.
II you will study the functional and
schematic diagrams Of this circuit and
that given in yesterdays article. you
will see the relationship or similarity
between the two circuits and the
parallel action which takes place in
both circuits. The only real differ
ence is that in today's circuit there
are three stages of reflex amplifica-
tion, whereas in the circuit shown in
yesterdays article there were only
two reflex stages.
The fundamental principles govern
ing both circuits, however, are iden-
tical.
1t is not as difficult to draw these
circuits as it would seem. All that
is necessary is TO draw standard
straight radio frequency amplifier
circuit with a crystal detector circuit
for detection, making only the con-
nections from tuner and radio fire.
quency transformer terminals to the
respective grids and plates of the
tubes, but leaving the grid return
and transformer to B battery con-
nections out to begin with.
After the flament circuits and the
connections between transformers and
grid and plate terminals have been
made, insert An audio secondary
winding between the grid return OF
the tuner and the negative A battery
lead. Then connect its associated
primary winding into the crystal de-
tector circuit, and this will complete
the first reflex stage. Now connect
ahe primary winding Of another audio
frequency amplifying transformer
into the plate circuit OF the first tube
between the terminal of the radio

cult of the second tube between the
B terminal of the radio frequency
transformer and the positive termi-
nal of the B battery and the second
ary winding of the transformer be-
tween the grid return of the second
radio frequency transformer and the
negative A battery lead.
The phones are connected into the
plate circuit of the third tube as
shown in the diagram.
Bypass condensers are used across
the primary and secondary windings
Of the audio frequency transformers
and across the phones to bypass the
radio frequency currents flowing in
these circuits.
The best sizes of condensers to use
for this purpose will vary with diff
ferent transformers and in different
stages. The success of the system
depends to a considerable extent on
finding the proper values for these
condensers by trial and experiment
ing with different sizes, trying values
from .000l to .0O2 mid.

CALLS IT OBLIGATION
Young Says Electrical Industry
Must Solve Rural Problem as
Matter of Duty.

Farm electrification Is not q bust.
ness opening as much as It Is social
obligation, in the opinion of owen D.
Young, farm owner and with a
farm boyhood behind him, now chair
man of the board of directors of the
General Electric Company. The obli-
cation. in Mr.. Young's opinion. rests
with the electrical industry.
In an interview which Mr.. Young
has just granted to the New York
Times, he says: sit is the electrical
industry's job to make its contribution
to adequacy and economy In farm pro
duction. Otherwise. the electrical In.
dustry will be found wanting. And 1t
must accept problem OF this magni
tude and character as presenting a
duty rather than new market.
"The question is. how can a bust
ness of this size and Importance be
developed in such a way that the cleo.
trical industry can sell its service for
what the purchasers can afford to
pay? Anybody can produce goods at
such price that no one can afford to
buy them. Business demands that
the price shall be within reach of the
potential customer. and that there
shall be fair return to the producer.
A Job to Be Worked Out
TT Is incumbent upon the manufac,
turing branch of the electrical indus;
try to meet this problem It must
make and develop the necessary ma.
chinery. It can be done. The manu-.
featuring branch supplied the textile
field, 1t provided the machinery for
the mine and the railroad. for the
steel mill and the bakery.
I'VE can make farming attractive,
comfortable and profitable. .HleotFis
city can tighten farm lahors and In
crease farm profits It will check
the exodus of the better type of citi-
zens from the farm It will make the
farmhouse the most DELIGHTFUL home
we have in this country"
Mr. Young added sihat it was hardly
to be expected thai the isolated cleo
trfc light and power company. having
no inter-connectio, of power lines
with any other uti4sy company. could
go out and serve farmer at a dis.
tinct loss. But the opportunity came.
he pointed gut when fifteep 0r tween

gether Into q single system with one
large power plant. and system Of

plishing economies which each of the

AUTO cRowDING OLD
DoBBIN OUT

Statistics seem to indicate that the
automobile, the tractor and the
truck. are gradually bringing the
American horse to the verge of race
suicide,
According to figures compiled by
the Chicago Tribune there are now
1880, 900 horses in the United
States while in 1918 there were
as many as 21,500,QO0. Not only
this, \but the number of mules has
decreased ten per cent slice 1920 and
the average age of horses and mules
now in existence is greater than
formerly Forty-three per cent of
all horses on the farms are ten years
of age or older, while but eleven per
cent are under four years of age,
This shows that colt production has
dropped of, and it is said that only
about one half as many were foaled
in 1924 as in 1918.
But the decline in number has not
increased the value per head. For
the average value of horses has
dropped from SGT )hve years ago to
$63 at ,the present time. In Mis-
souri, are only $4,000 horses as
against 100000 year ago and the
average value per head is but $46,,
In Kansas four years ago there were
million horses. Now the number
has dropped to $4,000.
The general decline in the number
and value of horses is. blamed on the
gasoline motor. All experts, how
ever, do not regard the situation as
pessimistic from the STANDPOINT of
the horse. Some authorftfesAb believe
that the country is on the verge of
Ia horse shortage, and that higher
prices will prevail within the next
few years,
The automobile seems to have
supplanted old Dobbin to consider
able extent, but he is still pretty
useful and reliable creature to have
around.
