tho form of electrical currents. In the
second place, an amplifier Wob required
which would magnify with equal ac
curacy the minute currents generated
by the transmitter. Klnally, tho large
telephone receivers attached to the
sound projectors arc of such skillful
design that they reconvert magnified
electrical currents Into sound waves
without the slightest distortion. In or
der that tho sound waves produced by
the projectors could be heard across
the valley nearly four miles away, tho
amplifier magnified the' electrical

umong many other things, a trans

and the successful design nnd main
tenance of such circuits was necessar
ily preceded by very far-reaching stud
ies of all tho elements comprising the
circuit. The loud speaker Is, therefore,
a natural by-product of the researches
underlying long distance telephony.

In noarly every farm flock thero
are many iinmuture 'pullets that
should lit 'sold, That tho average
poultry house is about one-third as
largo as it should be for tho number
of hens kept, is tho observation of
poultry specialists of the College of
Agriculture. Keeping tho immature
pullets with the lions increnses tho
crowded condition, and decreases tho
nutrtbor of eggs, In most cases ta
hlo scraps are used athpart of tho
food given to tho" flock. This food,
which usually contains somo moat,
helps to increase egg production; but
when It has to be divided with the
pullets, thero is not enough meat to
go nround nnd therefore little good
is accomplished. In addition to the
crnps, luine Four milk is used. In
many cases the hens, if kcjit alone,
would receive sufficient prQtein to (
roatly increase in etfg production.
Immature pullets are wild and usual-
y (Viciou?. They keep the hens dis
turbed because they aro vory easily
frightened nnd at the slightest pre
tense scatter in a panic. When hens
have full red combs tho pUllots often
pick thorn until they bleed ircoy.
This habit is sometimes taken up 'by
must of the birds and the flock is
ruined by cnnnnballsm. It is much
cheaper to sell tl'.e small pullets now
than to feed thorn all winter nnd
porhapo get many weak chicks hatch
ed from their eggs next spring when
hatching eggs aro- collected without
considering their origin.
