Telephoning By Wireless From Moving Trains
Mr.. Brown enters and presently he
is talking with his friend in Berlin.

Mr.. Brown enters and presently he
is talking with his friend in Berlin.
Making a Call
Communication may be established
from the train also. Should Mr..
Brown desire to reach his friend in
Berlin he approaches the operator
with the friends Berlin exchange and
number. kilograms, likewise, may
be transmitted by telephone to the
passenger and from the moving train
to any city in the republic.
Toll Charges
The charges for the train tele-
phonic service are slightly higher
than for ordinary long-dlstance calls.
A call from Berlin or Hamburg to
the train, or the reverse, costs from
"a cents to $1.30 for the first three
minutes of conversation, according
to the distance of the trains from
the called station.
Commercial train telephony was
established for regular service on
the German railroad during the early
part of January when, on the first
day, 10 calls were made from the
first train, and one call was received.
On another train filled with news
paper men, 80 calls of three minutes
each were made from the train with
in two hours without difficulty.
Broadcasting Part of System :
While broadcasting does play an
important function in the train tel
ephone system, the method employed
is really combination of ordinary
and wireless telephony. There are
three sending stations for the Ber-
lin-Hamburg route, one at each end
of the line, and another midway be-
tween the cities.
Messages from ordinary telephones
in homes, offices, or hotels, come to
the nearest of these three stations
by wire in the usual manner. At the
stations they are taken up by a
high frequency sending device and
broadcast in an unusual manner.
The waves do not leave the station
via an aerial strung outside the
transmitting building, but follow
wires strung along the tracks. When
they reach point opposite the
speeding train, the waves "jump" to
the aerial Of the receiving set on the
roof Of the train.
The antenna on the top of the
train extends usually over two cars,
the trains, of necessity, having their
own high frequency sender and
power station, fed by the same cur
rent with which the train is lighted.
Different wave lengths enable the
stations and trains along the route
to tune in and out.

SUMMER CARE OF BULLETS

The chicks are raised. Hot weather
is here. The cockerels are going to
market. What should be done with
the pullets? On the answer to that
question, depends largely the egg lay
and financiay income next fall.
The first thought should be to keep
the pullets in good health. Old yards
should be changed for new Intestinal
round worms, coccodiosis, and even
tuberculosis may Turk in last years
chicken yard. Most poultrymen are
too careless about soil sanitation.
No one is safe in assuming that his
pullets will be free from disease if he
uses old yards, unless he has spent
considerable time in cleaning them up.
The fact that some people escape for
years without any apparent trouble is
no evidence that others can. 1t does
noteven prove that those who think
they have escaped, have done so. l
have known many fiocks that ap-
peared to be in good health, and yet
were SO infested with round worms
that they failed to lay properly.
Coccodiosis may hit any time be-
fore the pullets are three months old,
or even later. The most susceptible
time is from three to ten weeks of
age. This year have reports of six
focks where the total loss was less
than per cent in the first five weeks,
and where the loss from coccidiosis
after that ran from 20 to 80 per cent.
Even where the death rate is low, the
financial loss from low egg yield
caused by weakened vitality, may be
enormous. Remedies may help, but
nothing succeeds like prevention.
After looking carefully to the yard
ing or range conditions, the next
thought should be for the housing
Pullets need plenty of room, and an
abundance of fresh air. Every pullet-
developing house should have cross
ventilation above the pullets. A front
opening is not enough in summer
There should be 6-inch space under
the cave, and running the entire
length of the building. Pullets must
be kept cool in summer.
Having provided good range and
housing conditions, some thought
should be given to. the food. All
grain should be examined carefully
for mildew or mold Corn especially
should be tested before feeding. If
in doubt about any grain, chew a
sample before feeding the chickens.
Feed good wholesom mashes, but do
not feed high protein mashes after the
pullets are three months old. If they
are we'll grown at four months. they
should have no animal protein till egg
production is desired. If combs de

The State College of Washington
agricultural extension service is one
Of the best managed Of the eleven
western states, according to w. A.
Lloyd, agriculturist representing the
U. S. Department of Agriculture, In
charge of these particular states.
"The work is carried on in a very
commendable manner" said Mr..
Lloyd, following his inspection at the
central office at the State College
Everything is handled economically
and efficiently and in fact, the service
is one of the best managed of the
eleven stats" S. B. Nelson is general
director of the service.
Mr. Lloyd is now visiting the county
agents in various northern counties of
the state.

velop too rapidly at any time after
three months and before maturity, il
is a sign that there is too much pro-
tein in the ration 1t may also mean
that the pullets are being kept too
warm and comfortable.
To clean yards, clean, cool roomy
houses and good wholesome grain and
mash, add plenty of cool clean water
and all the tender succulent green
feed they will eat, and the pullets will
go into the laying house full of energy
and pep. Neglect any one of these
things, and you are sure to be disap-
pointed with egg production. 1t is
assumed, of course, that you keep the
chicken house free from mites and
the chickens free from lice.

H PUBLIC HEALTH IS PUBLIC WEALTH
i COMPILED BY THE
Il PUBLIC HEALTH LEAGUE
II OF WAS HINOTON
MENTAL DANGER SIGNALS

OF every 1000 children who survive
the dangers of birth, infancy and
early childhood, 10 are definitely
feeble-minded, 40 will become insane,
so will enter penal institutions, and
an incalculable number of others are
destined to become nervous invalids,
cranks, eccentrics, dependents, and
insists of various kinds. Upon the
more normal remainder depends the
preservation of civilization and the
support of the less fortunate.
We know that much of this burden
is avoidable through early recognition
of the signs of abnormality and the
institution of proper prevention and
remedial measures.
The abnormal child can sometimes
be recognized by his physical appear
ance alone. Thus his head may be
out of proportion with the rest of his
body, overlarge or too small A pro.
truding, swollen tongue, dry wrinkled
skin and unusual distribution of fat
characterizes condition of defective
mental and physical development due
to absence or deficiency of the thyroid
gland. In these children cure may
follow proper treatment.
Habitual perversity, the tendency
to do always the opposite thing, and
to resist simple and sensible direc-
lions is significant. Bullying and its
opposite of self-depreciation and self
consciousness both have their origin
in a sense of inferiority, a mental
state which presents serious dangers
to mental equilibrium.
Tantrums are of serious import
Violent likes and dislikes, strange
fears, constant craving for excite
ment, disregard for the rights anG
feelings of others, lack of proper affec
lions, sleep-walking, night-terrors
pilfering, persistent and useless lying
and cruelty, are all conditions which
require attention.
A lively imagination is valuable
asset, but when the child loses his
sense Of reality in his imaginings anC
occupies himself either in seclusivt
day-dreaming or in useless and fan
tastic fabrication, the problem is {
serious one.
1t is just as important that symp
toms of mental and nervous abnormal
ity receive the attention of physi
clan who understands their import a!
that proper medical advice be sough
in scarlet fever, tuberculosis, appendi
citis, or any other serious disease.

There was a half timid rap at the
door and Hardin answered it. Little
Billy BLY, and 'Liz'beth Elderidge

I've brung it."
She put the steaming bowl on a
nearby table and went to the bedside.
Little Billy BLY, went to the bedside
too, and they looked down upon the
Bear Creek Buckmaster with an air
of something like ownership. Sud
denly 'Lizbeth blushed.

Anglers Must Pay
Toll to Indians

VANCOUVER, B. C.-Squamish In
dams on reserves in North Vancouver
have been granted authority by the
Dominion Government at Ottowa to
charge for permits to anglers who
wish to fish in the portions of two Of
the citys principal fishing streams
which pass through the reserves.
The permits will cost 81, and any
one found fishing on the reserve
waters without these will be prescott
ed by the federal department of In
dian affairs.
1t was on the suggestion of the In
dian agent-general that the council Of
the Squamish nation decided to apply
for authority to control angling in the
waters on their reserves. These per-
mits are now issued subject to the
regulations of the fishing department
and the provincial angling and game
laws.

How Call Is Received

Passengers on the Berlin HAM

hear from home or friends while
travelling on the ITS mile stretch
between the two cities not alone by
telegraph but by word of mouth.
The process resembles the reception
of phone call in big hotel.
"Mr. Brown" neatly uniformed
youth calls, as he passes down the
aisle of the express. "Mr. Brown!"
he reiterates until someone recog-
nizes his name is being called.

ICE CREAM HAS FOOD VALUE

For more than hundred years we
have been using ice cream. Today
nearly every civilized nation knows
about ice cream. 1t is one of the first
delicacies foreign visitors seek out
and sample, for in other countries re-
frigeration has not been developed as
it has been here. But this is the only
nation that has recognized the true
worth of ice cream and officially pro-
claimed it as an essential food. 1t is
now so recommended by prominent
physicians and leading diet experts.

Wireless Telephone Apparatus On
Berlin Hamburg Express Makes
Possible Communication Be-
tween Passenger and
Resident in Cities.

u EXPERIMENTS which have ex-
IL tended over period Of seven
years, have at length resulted in
the perfection Of wireless telephone
apparatus by means of which it is
possible to telephone from train
moving at the rate of a mile min
ute and to a city as far distant as
200 miles.
German Railroads Install Phone
The installation, recently, Of
special receiving apparatus on the
express trains between Berlin and
Hamburg has proven SO satisfactory
to the telephone experts of the Ger
man Railroads Company which OPP
crates all the railroads in Germany
under a provision of the Dawes plan,
that the radiophone service has been
made a feature Of the rail service
between the German capital and it's
leading seaport.
Audibility
Hitherto Eoise has been a decided
factor in the failure of apparatus
employed to pick up distinct and
clear messages. The fact that the
train is continually changing the
distance between the two phones has
ertailed problems Of it's own, the dis
lance between some trains and cit
les with which their phones are con-
nected varying as much as three or
four miles in the course of the con-
versation. With present apparatus

There Is one fact which ] am sure
