They rake the corn from the crib where it is shelled and along the spout leading to tne sheller some five men pick out the bad ears leav- ing only the good ones.

He contended the government owed special considera- tion to the spring wheat farmers be - cause of the evils they had suffered through the wartime propaganda which at once increased production adn decreased consumption. Every other class in the United States has been aided, he said, either by the tariff or through direct cr indirect subsidy. Several amendments al ready have been proposed to the bill, which would increase the amount carried to $105,000,000. Among them is a provision offered by. Sena tor Bursum. republican.

Types of Keceiving Sets Continuing our discussion of last week regarding the different "types" of receiving sets, we phall deal with radio frenuencv. neutrodvne. reflex and suoer-heterodvne. As before stat- cd. v.e are indebted to Ray-O-Vac'3 "Radio Trouble Finder" for much of the information contained herein, RADIO FREQUENCY A radio frenuencv set consists of vantages, principally its ability to reach out great distances and pene trate unfavorable weather conditions that would baffle the average simple set. It al.co has the ability to cut out interference from local stations to a marked degree and best of all is of the non-hetrodyning type, which means it doesn't give out any tuning squeals to bother the other fellow. REFLEX SETS Al of the sets we Lave discussed are sometimes built as "rflex"' sts. .This merely means that the vacuum tubes are made to do double duty, as radio and audio frequency rmplifiers. (For instance, a typical plain radio- ! audio set has five tube two radio amplifiers, detector and two audio amplifiers. A reflex set of approxi mately the same powers would use three tubes, two tubes serving as both radio and audio frequency amplifiers. 'and the third as a detector. While they offer a decided saving in cost and maintenance, a reflex set is us ually a difficult problem for the nov ice who wishes to build his own and even the factory-built sets or this type have not EOlvei aI1 tfae problems SUPER-H ETEROD YNE The Rolys-Royce of radio circuits and undoubtedly a superior type. However, whether or not it is recom mended for the. average layman is another question. It usually has from reven to nine tubes, with complicated control apparatus and much skill is I essential to its successful operation. it operates efficiently on a loop aerial thus cutting: to a minimum static and summertime interference ' picked up by outdoor aerials.
