HOURAREADOPTED FOR RADIOPHONE USE ; BY LOCAL OPERATORS Adoption of time regulations for the different sorts of radio -work, and admission of three new members comprised the principal business of the regular meeting of the DX Radio club, which was held for the first time in the high school, Wednesday night. According to the new traffic regulations, the time from 6:30 to 7:00 o'clock will be set aside for telephone transmission of market reports and weather forecasts, during -which time all other operators will keep silent, while the period from 7 to 8 o'clock will be a QRT or quiet period tor spark sets also, in order that all may have a chance to tune in out of town phones. Local phones may put on programs during this period, not to exceed three nights a week. The time from 8:00 o'clock to 9:30 may be used for lo

cal work. Regulations lor tne re

mainder of the twenty-four hours remains the same as before.

The importance of outside speakers

such as representatives of Doron Bros., of Hamilton, or the Precision company of Cincinnati, was suggested

by William Huber, who advocated,

levying an assessment or dues to pay expenses of such speakers. After discusion it was finally decided to fix regular dues, at the next meeting, when every member will be expected to send in his estimate of what the dues should amount to. Entertainment Committee A permanent entertainment committee of three members was named which will have as its duty the appointment of program committees for each meeting, several weeks in advance, for each meeting. Charles Snyder F. Tilton and Leslie Hart

were named. George Wogaman, of Hagerstown, Kenneth Clark, of Winchester and Charles W. Engle, 508 North 20th St., Richmond, were admitted as mcm-i

bers. Principal E. C. Cline. of the high school made a 6hort address of welcome to the club, offering the free use of the room for the meeting nights of the club, and congratulating the members on their accomplishment. Commends Work "You are doing the very thing we like most to see," he said, "in tying up what you learn in school with something in everyday life, n putting into actual use the principles that you have learned in the study of phy6lcs, you are doing the same thing that all scientific pioneers have done." Nearly everything worthwhile in our schools has been brought in in this way, by students getting interested in developing some hobby, associating themselves for mutual benefit.

in the near future, wireless telegraphy and telephony will be taught in the

schools just as the sciences are being

suggested, "grotesquely improbable, no doubt, but still just conceivable?

Might the whole story of the cataleptic Russian and his son be a concoction of Dr. Trevelyan's, who has, for his own purposes, been In Blessington's rooms?"

I saw in the gaslight that Holmes

wore an amused smile at this brilliant departure of mine.

"My dear fellow," said he. "it was

one of the first solutions which oc

curred to me, but I was soon able to corroborate the doctor's tale. This young man has left prints upon the stair-carpet which made it quite superfluous for me to ask to see those which he had made in the room. When I tell you that his shoes were squaretoed instead of being pointed like Blessington's and were quite an Inch and a third longer than the doctor's, you will acknowledge that there can be no doubt as to his individuality. But we may sleep on It now, for I shall be surprised if we do not hear something further from Brook Street in the morning." Tomorrow "The Resident Patient", continued.

Large cities would be the bigEest sufferers from a prolonged railroad strike. Within a few days provisions would become short and many hardships would result. "In New York city we

live from hand to mouth," asserted Health Commissioner Copeland of that city in announcing he would commandeer all food and distribute it where most needed in case of a long strike.

"Practically everything we eat comes by rail, and of perishables we seldom have more than a few days' supply on hand at any time. In case of strike we must depend on motor trucks."

BELIEVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE CAUSE OF GREAT MANY DEATHS "Long life is largely governed by

good heredity,; declared Dr. William Muhlberg, in an address In Cincinnati recently.

"It was formerly stated that a man

is as old as his blood vessels. The

newer theory states that a man is as

old as his blood pressure.

"If there Is one element whereby one can judge any person's expectancy in life It is the height of his blood

pressure," Dr. Muhlberg said. "Ths lower this pressure, other things being

equal, the better are the prospects of anyone living to a ripe old age. "While high pressure runs in certain families, it is nevertheless a fact, that many persons acquire it through faulty modes of living. Overeating, alcohol, too much tobacco, excesses of all kinds, business worries, undue mental or physical strain and germ infections will produce it in persons who inherit a natural tendency to good arteries. High blood pressure Is the forerunner of kidney and heart disease and apoplexy. "Today the young man has better

prospects than he formerly had of liv

ing to be 40, because typhoid lever and tuberculosis, that formerly caused so many deaths, are slowly being con-

quered. But past the age ot 40 a man's likelihood of living to a ripe old age are no better than they were fifty or one hundred years ago and this is true, despite the notable advances In medicine and surgery. "High blood pressure, leading op to heart, artery and kidney diseases anl apoplezy, is the principal cause of deaths in persons past middle life, and bad, faulty methods of living have more to do with this than bad heredity." - .

The father of Rain-in-the-Face de

great runner. 'Of course he was to be a hunter and warrior as well; but in times of war, especially, it was necessary to send messages from one chief to another, and so, as with the ancient Greeks, young men were trained to run great distances. Thus- it happened that Rain-in-the-Face made a run that, in every particular except historical importance, makes that famous original Marathon teem like a rather tame affair. The runner who went from Marathon to Athens carried news of a great Greek victory, and fell dead. Rain-in-the-Face ran 300 miles in three days, on .'now shoes, to save his own skin, and lived to tell the tale. So at least oeclares Col. G. O. Shields, author of a number of books and lectures on our Indian tribes, in his volume,- on "Blanket Indian of the Northwest."

crying in an arm-chair, and I could

hardly get him to speak coherently. It was his suggestion that I should come round to you, and of course I at once saw the propriety of it, for certainly the incident is a very singular one, though he appears to completely

overrate its importance. If you would only come back with me in my brougham, you would at least be able to soothe him, though I can hardly hope that you will be able to explain this remarkable occurrence." Sherlock Holmes had listened to this long narrative with an Intentness which showed me that his interest

was keenly aroused. His face wa3 as , impassive as ever, but his lids had drooped more heavily over his eyes, and his smoke had curled up more thickly from his pipe to emphasize each curious episode In the doctor's tale. As our visitor concluded, Holmes sprang up without a word, handed me my hat, picked his own from the table, and followed Dr. Trevelyan to the door. Within a quarter of an hour we had been dropped at the door of the physician's residence in Brook Street, one of those sombre, flatfaced houses which one associates with a West-End practice.' A small page admitted us, and we began at once to ascend the broad, well-carpeted stair. But a singular interruption brought us to a standstill. The light at the top was suddenly whisked out, and from the darkness came a reedy, quavering voice. "I have a pistol," it cried. "I give

you my word that I'll fire it you come

any nearer. "This really grows outrageous, Mr. Blessington," cried Dr. Trevelyan. "Oh, then it is you, doctor," said the voice, with a great heave of relief. "But those other gentlemen, are they what they pretend to be?" We were conscious of a long scrutiny out of the darkness. "Yes, yes, it's all right." said the

voice at last. "You can come up, and

I am sorry if my precautions have an

noyed you.

He relit the stair gas as he spoke,

and we saw before us a singular

looking man, whose appearance, as well as his voice, testified to his jangled nerves. He was very fat, but

had apparently at some time been much fatter so that the skin hung about his face in loose pouches, like the cheeks of a bloodhound. He was of a sickly color, and his thin, sandy hair seemed to bristle up with the in

tensity of his emotion. In his hand he held a pistol, but he thrust it into his pocket as we advanced. "Good-evening, Mr.- Holmes, said he. "I am sure I am very much obliged to you for coming round. No one ever needed your advice more than I do. I suppose that Dr. Trevelyan has told you of this most unwarrantable intrusion into my rooms." "Quite so," said Holmes. "Who are

it is hard to say that. You can hardly

expect me to answer that, Mr.1 Holmes." "Do you mean that you don't know?" "Come in here, if you please. Just have the kindness to step in here." He led the way Into his bedroom, which was large and comfortably furnished. "You see that," said he, pointing to a big black box at the end of his bed. "I have never been a very rich man, Mr. Holmes never made but one investment in my life, as Dr. Trevelyan would tell you. But I don't believe in bankers. I would never trust a

banker, Mr. Holme3. Between ourselves, what little I have is in that box, so you can understand what it means to me when unknown people force themselves into my rooms."

Holmes looked at Blessington in hl3

questioning way and shook his head.

I cannot possibly- advise you if you

try to deceive me," said he.

But I have, told you everything." Holmes turned on his heel with a

gesture of disgust. "Good-night, Dr.

Trevelyan," said he.

And no advice for me?" cried Bless

ington, in a breaking voice.

My advice to you, sir, is to speak

the truth."

A minute later we were in the street and walking for home. We had

way down Harley Street before I could get a word from my companion.

borry to bring you out on such a

fool's errand, Watson," he said at last. "It is an interesting case, too, at the bottom of it." "I can make little of it," I confessed.

"Well, it Is quite evident that there are two men more, perhaps, but at

least two who are determined for some reason to get at this fellow Bles

sington. I have no doubt in my mind that both on the first and on the second occasion that young man penetrated to Blessington's room, while his confederate, by an ingenious devise kept the doctor from interfering." "And the catalepsy?" "A fraudulent imitation, Watson, though I should hardly dare to hint as much to our specialist. It is a very easy complaint to imitate. I have done it myself." "And then?"

"By the purest chance Blessington

was out on each occasion. Their rea

son for choosing so unusual an hour for a consultation was obviously to insure that there should be no other

patient in the waiting-room. It just happened, however, that this hour co

incided with Blessington's constitu

Animal Feed is Necessary For Hens During Winter

During the summer months the farmer's flock balances its ration of grain and seeds with bugs, worms, and green stuff, and the farmer need not worry about egg production if his fowls have been well culled. But winter feeding requires that provision be made to supply the deficiency of animal feed and succulence. The absence of these essentials to good egg production is responsible in large decree for the falling off in yield during cold weather. Animal feed, or other feeds rich in protein, may be easily supplied on most farms, particularly where . skim milk or buttermilk is available. The liking of hens for these dairy by-products is a good Indication of the need for what they contain. Meat scrap is another excellent protein feed that has become standard in poultry rations. Clover and alfalfa leaves provide a com

bination of protein feed and green stuff. Often enough of them may be swept up from the barn floor where the hay is handled. A good way to prepare them for the flock is to pour boiling water over them, cover the container and let them steam for a time, when they will he ready to feed alone or in a mash. Sprouted oats has become one of the best-known providers of succulence in winter. Plans for making sprouters may be obtained from the United States Department of Agriculture. Mangels and cabbage, as well as many other vegetables, are appreciated by the hens. In general, winter feeding is much the same as summer feeding. On the Government poultry farms the same rations are used summer and winter. Of course, in summer it is unnecessary to feed succulent feed when the birds have range and are able to get plenty of grass, alfalfa, or similar feed. The farmer's flock, however, is an exception to this rule, as in many cases there is enoueh waste grain, seeds, etc., in

STOCK UP BY BUYING PULLETS The buying of pullets in the fall is preferable in most cases to buying day-old chicks or to hatching chicks in the spring, says the United States Department of Agriculture. Usually little space is available for raising chicks, and, moreover, few city dwellers have had experience enough to warrant the undertaking. Hatching and raising chicks requires broody hens, or the buying of incubators and brooders, and such an investment is too large for the average small flock.

FEED FOR PIGS

Pig weaning time is near. Get the pigs started on a ration of 60 pounds corn, 35 pounds middlings

and 5 pounds of tankage. Omit tankage if you have about two pounds of milk for each pound of

grain fed.

TIMELY HINTS

Cost of Pork Production

Is a late hatched chicken desir-l able? Last Friday at one of the stops made on the poultry tour our Purdue poultry expert, Mr. Jones, said they were if he were invited to help eat them. The theory that a late hatched pullet will produce eggs later next summer than will the early hatched one is unfounded. If one wishes to improve his flock, better dispose of all the late pullets. Almost two-thirds of an egg is water. 10.6 is fat (in the yolk). 10.7 is ash (shell)and 12.08 is albumen or protein. When a hen is in high laying condition about 80 of the feed she eats goes for body maintenance. 20 goes to

COST OF PORK PRODUCTION ; A few years ago the Kansas Experiment Station published the results of a 90-day winter feeding test. The pigs selected weighed 50 to 60 pounds, and were divided into six lots. Prices of feed at that time were high so the cost of pork production ran far above the market price of hogs today. Corn was $1.54 per bushel; tankage $5.50 per cwt; oil meal $3.25 per cwt.; middlings $2.25 per cwt. Today corn is approximately 40c, tankage $55 per ton, oil meal $2.65 and middlings $1.50. The price of. semi-solid buttermilk is now approximately 2Mc per pound. The following data are given to show the quantity of various feeds required to make 100 pounds of pork. The values of these at present prices are added: Lot 1. Corn 365 lbs.; "tankage 47 lbs. Daily gain .75 pounds. Cost $3.88. Lot 2. Corn 300 lbs; tankage, 25 lbs.; middlings, 90 lbs. Daily gain 1 lb. Cost $4.17. Lot 3. Corn 243 lbs.; tankage, 20 lbs.; middlings, 95 lbs.; semi-solid buttermilk, 53 lbs. Daily gain 1.4

Corn, 225 lbs.; middlings, 80 lba.; semi-eolid buttermilk, 60 lbs.; oil meal, 25 lbs. Daily gain 1.2 lbs. Cost, $4.81. Corn is off nearly 75; tankage 50; oil meal 20; middlings. 33 1-3; buttermilk about 50 and hogs , well, they are down too. Analyze these figures for yourselves and see if there isn't still a rather neat profit in feeding some hogs this winter.

make eggs. Grains are high in fats

summer to supply much of the feed ! and carbohydrates but generally

are low in available protein. Can you afford to let your hens find their own protein at ANY time other than when bugs and worms are plentiful? Protein is necessary for forming the white of the egg but it is fairly expensive. Cost isn't worth considering if one can get results similar' to those obtained at Purude. One pen of chickens was fed tankage, 183.5 eggs -per hen resulted. Another pen, was fed Just as well but no animal protein Vas supplied, 59.35 eggs per -hen .was the result in this case.
