Radio Tests
Please Maxim
Declares Spanning of Atlanta
Ocean by Amateurs Is
Revolutionary.
SMALL APPARATUS IS USED
President of the League Foresees Na
tions Drawn Closer by Wireless
Bonds—Amateurs Develop
Super-skill.
New York.—The success of amateur
(Tireless operators in this country and
Canada in sending signals and mes
sages to Scotland in the week’s tests
recently will be revolutionary in its
?ffect. on wireless communication, ac
cording to Percy Hiram Maxim, presi
dent of the American Radio Relay
league, through which the tests were
made. Amateurs had believed that
some of them would crash through to
the other side, but that many of them
would do so night after night was al
most more than they had hoped for.
Use Little Power.
The technical significance of the per
formance lies in the ability shown to
make low-powered Instruments do the
work which in large commercial sta
tions requires powerful apparatus.
Less than one kilowatt was used by
die amateurs in transmitting three sig
nals over thousands of mi lek of land
and sea—for some of those far in the
interior of the country got across—
whereas the large stations use from
100 to 200 kilowatts. In some weath
er that would not check the more pow
erful stations they would, of course,
fail, but some of their work was done
under conditions that were far from
Ideal.
That stations as far west as Ohio
were able to reach Scotland, where
Paul E. Godley, the official receiver for
the league, was stationed, was due part
ly to the relation, not always realized,
which Britain occupies to America.
The general direction from points in
this country Is northeast. Signals from
New England pass over the maritime
provinces of Canada, and those from
Denver pass over Hudson bay. Mr.
Godley expressed the belief that be
cause of lietter refraction and reflec
tion Inland stations had ns good a
chance of getting over ns North At
lantic stations. This proved to be
the case.
Proved It Could Be Done.
••pur success is revolutionary In
radio communication,*' says Mr.
Maxim. “It had not been thought
possible by experts that amateurs
could span the ocean, and we have
proved that it could be done. It
means the coining of citizen communi
cation between England and America,
the coming of the day when the peo
ple of one country can talk to one
another and discuss momentous af
fairs w ithout the intermediary of pub-

BRITISH LOSE OVER A BILLION
Hit Hard by Strike and Boycott

Ghandi, Boycott Leader, Considers
Violence Mortal Sin —Hie Punish

Aflame.
Washington.—How a slender, mild
mannered man of fifty-two, who be
lieves violence of any kind a mortal
sin, has caused the British government
more trouble than any number of
revolutionists, wni described In an ad
dress to the National Popular Govern
ment league by Byud Hosslan.
“The English government knows not
what to do with this man, Mahatma
Ghandi,’’ said Hosslan.
“If they imprison or execute him It
will set India aflame. If they allow
his non-violent, non-co-operative move
ment of boycotting British goods and
•vervthln|g British to proceed, it will
lie or governmental agencies. What
this means for the development of un
derstandings and harmonious i elation
ship can tie better imagined than de
scribed. It turns one’s thoughts to
the recent discussions by Mr. Wells
in his story of the ideal relationships
between the peoples of the world.
“It is only a matter of time when
this wireless telegraph communication
will be followed by telephonic com
munication, and when citizens of one
country may talk with the citizens of
another country without any check
upon their freedom of speech.
“The great thing about this test is
that it was done by amateurs; their
money and confidence put it through.
They have developed super-skill in
operating and supersensitiveness in ap
paratus. I think it will be a great sur
prise to all the wireless men of the
world, from Marconi to the experts of
the great private companies. The ama
teur’? apparatus has been devel
oped on the basis of love for his
work; It is not the perfunctory, al
though skillful, performance of the
hired employee.”

several divisions covering the entire

Lands Must Be
Kept at Work
Chief of the Forest Service Issues
Warning Against Depletion
of Wood Supplies.
OUR TIMBER IS RUNNING OUT
More Than 80,000,000 Acres Denuded
to Point of Absolute Idleness So
Far as Production of Timber
Is Concerned.
Portland, Ore. —Forest lands not
needed for agriculture must be kept
at work growing timber instead of be
ing allowed to lie idle.
This warning was sounded by Col.
W. B. Greeley, chief of the forest
service, who stopped here en route io
Washington, D. C., from Mather Field,
Cal., where he attended the forest
tire conference.
“If we are to remain a nation of
wood-users we must become a nation
of wood growers,’’ declared Colonel
Greeley, pointing out that the United
States produces more than half of
the entire lumber cut of the world,
and uses 95 per cent of the amount
“right here at home.”
“The exhaustion of our timber sup-
bankrupt them and overturn the
‘strategic’ center of empire in the
Orient.
“This month is the first anniver
sary of the start of the boycott insti
tuted by Ghandi, and it has already
cut down English export trade to 25
per cent of its normal volume,, result
ing In a cash loss of not less than
$1,(XX),000,000.
“If the same success attends the
refusal to pay taxes, whic|l began
last month, it will mean a loss of
#800,000,000 per year in revenue to the
government, which means collapse.
John Bull is being hit in his most
vulnerable spot—his pocketbook.”
Hosslan described Ghandi as the
most remarkable person he had ever
met. He quoted Colonel Wedgewood, a
member of parliament, as saying:
“Ghandi is the only man In the
world whose name can be mentioned
with that of Jesus Christ without
blasphemy.”
“Although a trained lawyer,” said

ply is coming about,” said the forest
service chief, “not because we have
used our forests freely, but because
we have failed to use our' timber
growing land. The problem in a nut
shell Is tlie enormous area of forest
land, which has been so logged and
burned that it is producing little or
nothing. We have more than 80,000,-
000 acres, an area greater than all the
forests of France. Belgium, Holland,
Denmark, Germany, Switzerland,
Spain and Portugal, which have been
denuded to the point of absolute Idle
ness so far as the production of any
timber of commercial '-alue is con
cerned.
“We have other enormous areas of
cutover land now growing but a frac
tion of the amount of timber which
they might produce. And we are add
ing to these areas of idle or largely
idle land from 10,000,000 to 15,000,000
acres every year, as destructive log
ging and still more destructive log
ging progresses.
Sees Trouble Ahead.
“This situation cannot continue long
without grave consequences.
“Where Americans need more for
ests is largely on these 8G,000.000 tim
ber-denuded acres which could be
made productive again with proper at
tention and proper protection against
fires.”
Some of the reasons why these for
ests are needed, according to Colonel
Greeley, are:
“Our manufacturing centers arc
drawing at an enormous rate upon
our timber supply—from two to four
times as fast per capita as the coun
try at large.
“Our railroads require 125,000,000
wooden crossties annually to main
tain their roadbeds in fit condition and
take care of new construction.
“Our average well-kept farms, using
the upper Mississippi valley as an in
stance, require 2,(XK) board feet of
lumber annually for repairs and im
provements.”

FOOD FOR THE FAMILY
Our dietitians tell us that the aver
age American eats at least one-third
more food than
he needs. If we
could learn to
stop rating be
fore we have
reached the stage
of being stuffed
and masticate
what we do eat
at least four times as long as we usu
ally do, we would find that we would
be satisfied with much less food, have
less stomach trouble and live more
useful and efficient lives.
In almost every part of the United
States there are apples to be found.
Where there are no orchards, there
are apples to be procured from the
markets. As they are the most whole
some of fruits they should be served
in a variety of ways, so that they nev
er become monotonous.
For an entree to serve with the
main dish at dinner there is no sweet
more attractive than baked apple
slices. Core the apples before peel
Ing; peel, then cut in slices one-half
Inch thick and . place in a well-greased
baking dish, giving each slice plenty
of room so that they ‘may be removed
after baking without breaking.
Sprinkle with sugar, a bit of butter
and a thick grating of nutmeg. Bake
and baste with a bit of hot water to
start with, then with the juice of the
apple. When tender serve one slice
with the meat or as a separate dish.
Eggs Shirred With Sausages.—Prick
six sausages all over and place
around the edge of a baking dish, and
cook in the oven until crisp; pour ofl
the fat and cut the sausages Into inch
pieces; break three fresh eggs in the
center of the dish, pour over two ta
blespoonfuls of fat and set in the.
oven to cook the eggs. Serve in the
baking dish.
Apple Pie a la Mode.—Bake an apple
pie as usual, and serve with a cara
mel ice cream, a spoonful on top of
each piece when serving. To prepare
the caramel, brown a cupful of sugar
in a smooth omelet pan, add hot milk,
and when melted add enough cream to
make it as rich as one likes, a sprink
ling of salt, and sugar to sweeten.
Browning the sugar takes away its
sweetness.
“Quaff ye the waters of Ramona’s
well,
Good luck they bring and secrets tell;
Blessed were they by sandaled Friar,
So drink and wish for thy desire.”
GOOD IDEAS FOR THE COOK
As food materials differ in price
with the locality and with the season
it is often impossible to
follow a recipe, as we
find some ingredient
either too expensive oi
difficult to obtain. If the
housewife understands
the composition of foods
she can substitute some
other food material with
good results.
For example, when butter is called
for. chicken fat, sour cream, clarified
bacon fat or some one of the butter
substitutes may be used. Cream con
tains more water than butter, chicken
fat less; so in using such fats this
must be taken into account.
Chopped nuts are also added tc
dishes to add to the food value. All
these things are invaluable knowledge
for the housewife to have. It is easy
to find from bulletins published b)
the United States Department of Agri
culture almost anything in regard to
foods.
The following data will be helpful
culture almost anything in regur dto
foods:
One cupful of whole milk, two tea
spoonfuls. ail measurements level.
One cupful of cream, three table
spoonfuls; double cream, six table
spoonfuls.
Butter, one cupful, fourteen table
spoonfuls; the two unaccounted for,
salt and moisture.
One cupful of English walnut meats,
two-thirds of a cupful of fat.
Peanuts, one cupful, about one-third
fat.
Chocolate, one square (one ounce),
one tablespoonful of fat (scant).
Grated cheese (four ounces), one
.-upful; two and one-half tablespoon
fuls of fat.
One egg yolk, a little more than a
teaspoonful; n whole egg the same.
Vegetable oils, from which all water
nns been driven off, contain one cup
ful to one cupful.
In a cake in which two-thirds of n
cupful of butter is required and one
cupful of milk, using a cupful ol
cream, reducing the butter twe table
spoonfuls and two tablespoonfuls of
water added, will make tlie proportions
right.
After the cooking dishes are used
or even while In the process of cook
ing the dishes may he washed and
put nway. They wash much easier
before the food is allowed to dry.
In all homes there should be an
emergency shelf of canned goods and
foods to be quickly prepared. It is
like a bank account—a “source of
help in time of trouble.’’
