AUDIO FREQUENCY AMPLIFIER UNITS Construction of Two Is Described, With the Materials That Musrt Be Purchased. i ~~~ Theoretically any number of tran» former coupled stages of audio frequency amplification cun be used. However, due to the amplification of, static disturbances, power line Indue* tion, tube not sew, etc., three stages are about the practical limit. If more than three stages are used the noises become ao loud, in comparison with the signal that It I* difficult to hear the signal. Since audio frequency amplifying transformers cun be purchased at uny radio shop and tile simplest method of coupling, the comaruction of two audio frequency amplifier units will be de* scribed. The first unit will be arranged to be used in conjunction with the vacuum tube receiver mounted on the eightinch square liortzoital base board, previously mentioned in this column. The

second unit will be mounted on a vertical panel four inches wide and six Inches high to "match up” with the six-by-eight vertical panel vacuum tube described recently in this column. The following standard apparatus will have to be purchased at a radio •upply store in order to construct an amplifier unit to be used in conjunction with either receiver. One amplifying transformer, cost about $5. One vacuum tube (for amplifier), cost $8.50. One vacuum tube socket, cost sl. One filament rheostat, cost about sl. Seven binding posts, cost about 70 cents. The amplifier unit to be used with the eight-inch square horizontal baseboard Is mounted on a base three o o o o o O t A I 1 A i i 0 ) t < O O /3a/tery ©”©o© o e ne/ Ley out cf inches wide and six inches long. The tube filament rheostat Is mounted In the front, the amplifying transformers in the back and the tube in the center. Fig. XXXII shows the relative position of the transformer tube socket and filament rheostat when mounted on the baseboard. A diagram of connections of the amplifier unit is shown In Fig. XXXIII. The Input coming from the terminals of the re-

•elver that were originally conni’t'ted , to the telephone receivers Is conuectm' to the terminal* of the amplifying transformer. One side of tite secondary of the amplifying transformer I* connect, d to the grid, and the other tide of the secondary to the tilament uud common buttery lead. The filament rheostat Is In series with the po* ttive (ide of the filament. The plate terminal on the tube socket I* connected to one side of the phone, the other side of the phone being connected to the poeltlve side of a 45-vult "B" battery. Use a ‘‘hard” tube as un amplifier. When using the amplifier unit for the first time, tune the receiver with the detector only. To connect the ter- / [[ rut* \\ / k iJzZc/fcT* \] Z7Z 7?/rCO i i ■Ffyxxxs: tnlnals T-T from the amplifier unit in place of the phones in the plate circuit} of the amplifier, adjust both the fila, merit rheostats until the signal! strength is maximum. If it is desired to still further am, pllfy the incoming signal two amplh tier units can be constructed, the out-! put of each unit being connected to| the input of the next, and the phones being placed in the plate circuit of the last amplifier tube. In constructing the second unit make the panel and the baseboard of the same thickness, kind of wood, and finish as used for the receiver. The panel should be four inches wide and si? Inches high, the baseboard three indies wide and four inches deep to “match up.” Use the same kinds of binding posts and filament rheostat that were used on the receiver. Fig. XXXIV is a plan view of the amplifier unit, and Fig. XXXV is an elevation of the front view of the panel. The diagram of connections is, of course, the same as for the previously described unit and is shown in Fig. XXXIII. These amplifier units can be used in conjunction with any radio receiver. The same units connected electrically as shown in Fig. XXXIII can be mount, ed to suit the builders’ own taste.

Three Generations of Threshermen at Warsaw Warsaw, Oct. 3—For sixty years three generations of the Cauftinan| family in the southern part of Kosciusko county have been engaged in | the threshing business. Samuel j ('nuffmuhi, now decease<l. threshed I from the time he was 15 years of age until he was 65. Albert, his son, commenced threshing at the age o| 1 16 and still is or.gugtxl in the busl ! uess. Russell Cauffinan, son of Al i ert, < ngaged in active service us a thresherman at the age of 12 and at tite age of 18 owned a threshing outfit of his own. Tills year ho threshed thousands of bushels of wheat for HOiithern Kosciusko county farmers.

Problem of Raising Chickens Discussed Lafayette, Oct. 3—Solution of the difficult problems of raising Chickens sere presented at the fourth annual! meeting of the Indiana State Poultry association at Purdue University here today. New members were registered this morning and this afternoon the meeting was opened with an address by I Dr. L. P. Doyle, of the Purdue Veter-1 Inary department. He presented data on the results of testing flocks for bacillary white dioarrhea which he said is the chief disease with which j •he farmers have to contend. C. W. | Carrick, of tite poultry department of he school presented results of two vears experimental work in fedeing chicks. Certified hatcheries such as they have in California and Wisconsin which will hatch chicks free from disease will be discussed at the supper conference tonight. Tomorrow morning. Prof. A. G. Phillips, professor of poultry hus-i bandry will tell of his recent trip to California and compare poulry conditions there with those in Indiana. Egg markets methods will be presented in a discussion in the after- ■ noon. The conference will close Thursday morning. A community club of farm women in Cherokee county, Kansas, according to statements to the United States department of agriculture, reports 2,065 healthy chicks from hatches total ing 2.486, as a result of following the i methods of sanitation and feeding demonstrated by the county extension agent.

Felt—The Fabric of Fine Roofing A look at the outside of an automobile tire leaves you no w * ser lan Lefoi’e as to its ability to stand up ‘“in WHI run ’’ i^’ s ie fabric —down underneath — jpg’| |H| that gives a tire its backbone. |; r In exactly the same way, the asphalt-saturated felt iMKkrT I H * n Flex-a-Tile Roofing provides the strength and ' toughness to outlast the years. i' Felt-making is an art in itself; an art that more than fifty years of Richardson experience lias reduced to a jEytajZ science. You can’t see the genuine Richardson felt in ♦ Flex-a-Tile Giant Shingles, but because it is there you can buy Giant Shingles or any other Flex-a-Tile Roofing with confidence that they will last as long as the building itself is likely to stand. FLEX-A-TILE HOUSE T O P S In Flex-a-Tile Giant Shingles you get the best felt e the Richardson Mills can produce—twice the thickness used in standard shingles —thoroughly saturated with | scientifically tempered natural asphalt and coated on , both sides to make it weather and water proof.
