GOOD CROP REPORT FRHJIESOTA State Farm / Statistician j Sees Heavy Harvest, By Times Specie! ST. PAUL, Minn., July 17. —One ! of the most promising crop reports in the history of the service was given out today by Paul H. Kirk, Minnesota agricultural statistician. “General crop and weather condi- I tions were very favorable the past I week and for all small grains thr outlook, particularly at this time, ; is promising,” he said in his weekly i reuprt for the United States Department of Agriculture and Minnesota , department of agriculture. “Corn is still reported from teh 1 days to two weeks behind on a State 1 basis, and it ranges in height from | one foot to knee high. The outcome of corn depends largely on how early killing frosts come in the fall. “Harvesting of winter wheat and rye will be in full swing soon with both crops generally having good yields. “All other small grains are headed and early sown grains are filling under idekl conditions.”

PHOTOGRAPHING SOUND POSSIBLE \ New Camera tJsed at Denpcratic Convention. NEW YORK, July 17.—Dr. Dee be Forest, inventor of the atidion, which makes possible radio hroad- ! casting and receiving, as well as ; talking motion pictures, has invented a long-distance synchronizing device by which two cameras, one photographing sound and the other acmay be operated simultaneously, and the result amalgamated. r The Democratic national convention in Madison Square Garden, New Yofik City, afforded a test. A regulation motion picture camera was set up in the Garden. At the same time a De Forest phonofilm camera, photographing sound, was in action i-n the studio of Dr. De Forest on For-ty-Eighth St. These two cameras were connected by radio.

RADIO DIFFICULT OF OPERATION IN HAVE DESERT Erla Three Tube Reflex Only Set Which Works Successfully, By Times Special CHICAGO, July 17. —The average fan who thinks he is having a lot of trouble will find consolation in a rei -rt made by aiengineering corps which has been ferrying on radio ex perimental work in the Mojave Desert, always considered a “dead spot" fdr radio reception. The rejxtrt has been received by the Electrical Research laboratories in Chicago. The experimenters are located at Little Rock, Califor nia, and are members of the Los Angeles County surveyors' camp. The report is sigped by seven engineers, and says; “AVe believe you will be interested in the radio have harried on in our camp night since Nov. 5 with various sets with more or less stfccess. “Is Dead Country’* “In the beginning we must state that this has always been consid ered a ‘dead’ country; no one before has had any success to speak of, even the best seta (we mean up to five tubes) sometimes refusing to register signals even frdm Los Angeles, twenty miles southwest, but behind a high range of'mountains. “You must visualize a high, sandy, dry_ plateau, surrounded by mounialns on all sides—the Mojave desert. In addition to this, we experience daily,'high electrical winds. We have seen an intermittent spark gap jump a three-fourths inch gap between the anfrnifta and ground leads continuously for hours at a time. 'Tn order to obtain successful radio reception we %nve had to bury the ground twenty feet deep to find eves a moist condition, and to raise the aortal sixty feet high. We are using an ‘L’ antenna iISS feet long from point to set. This has given results over all other types.”

Reflex Tube Works The report then gives a list of high-powered, standard three' four and five-tube "Sets which failed to get any results or succeeded only In getting very unsatisfactory results, and then says: “The only set which has brought tp.ny degree of success Is the Erla three tube reflex. We believe that the future universal receiver*will be ono using the reflex method. We believe tha % t your judgment, based on radio research, will bring a decisive change in the construction of all receivers; that tube rqflexing is the most efficient of any method so far, and that your discovery of synchronization, which fe*v had suspected, will he the ultimate gpal of the perfect reflex receiver.’/ Building Permits Oiarlp* Zigler, addition. 3426 E.

Dr. U. G. Houch, FederM veternarian in charge of the campaign, says occasional flare-ups may be expected from Time to time this stunner. The danger of the scourge jumping to other States is now practically over, it is believed. The means of stamping out the disease was severe, but effective. Whenever a case was reported the whole herd in which the animal was found was slaughtered and the carcasses burled in quick-lime. The and range were both put under strict quarantine and everything thoroughly disinfected. After thirty days several animals were turned loose on the farm as test animals and carefully watched by an expert for symtoms. If none developed within sixty days, the quarantine was lifted. So far no recurrence has taken a farm so “treated.” T 6 date 96,563 head of stock havebeen slaughtered. The owners are reimbursed from Federal and State funds. The total costs of the epidemic have been $4,000,000. A whale’s skin varies from two Inches to tw r o feet in thickness. Western films are most popular In England.
