Sanford. This past soason these men gave 543 calling demonstrations before 11,320 people. Over one hundred thousand birds were handled with the result that twenty nine thou sand of this number were discarded aa culls. At present the work consists of Judging poultry at different farms and farm product show's, and the sel ection of breeders for farmers. A far mer to be eligible for this service (Bust have kept n record of his flock for one year and these records must have been reported monthly to the Poultry Extension Department. If tile egg production warrants it and tiie birds are true enough to type, tiiey are branded with a leg brand. Tbe breeders then must agree to breed only from branded birds. Probably five thousand birds will be branded this year. This establishes a guaran teed source of breeding stock. In addition to this work, the exten sion men are holding meetings. Feed if? meetings are held frequently on demonstration farms. This *hJ . continue until the holl ars. after which. the begin ning of the new year meetings on in vocation and brooding will be ear vkd on extensively on these demon stration farms. *OE SALK—-A banjo practically new.

NEW RADIO ANTENNAE IS LAST WORD IN AERIAI£ The aerial for the new broadcast ing station which was installed last Thursday represents the most sclemi tlc and up-to-date ideas for antennae, and is known as the three cage, star type., so called from its appearance. Three cages consisting of eight para llel copper wires, held apart by light octagon shaped wooden frames are suspended from the top of the three wooden towers. Midway between the towers, these cages meet at a point about eighty feet from the ground, and from this point a smaller cage leads to the building where a large electrose insulator enters the operating room. The counterpoise was constructed on Saturday. This consists of a network of wires which run between the tow ers at a height of about six feet above the ground. An underground passage in the form of a wooden conduit pro tects the lend in from the counterpoise to the instruments. ■ ■ o \V. R.
