SOLUTION OF THE BONUS PROBLEM Eliminate the Income tax, with Its expensive and costly collection and Inconvenlnence. Assess the wealth of the nation that was acquired previous to our entry Into the world war.

IT'S TIME TO SPRAY NOW Pear buds are now in stage suit able for the application of the "pink" spray -which Is used to control scab. In sections where scab ' has been found In previous years, liquid lime sulphur at the rate of one gallon to 25 gallons of water, or dry lime sul phur, four1 pounds to 50 gallons of water, should be applied between now and the time the pear buds be gin to blossom out. There are some sections of the valley which will not need this application and growers who are in doubt should confer with the county pathologist at an early date. Dormant spraying on apples with full strength lime sulphur can be continued for another week or more and the apple scab spray will not be needed for at least two week0. For the control of scab this "pink" spray Is the most Important application, j and if it is neglected, it will be very difficult to control scab with the later sprays. C. C. CATE. EASTERN STAR MEMBERS ARE GIVEN A REAL TREAT The regular meeting of Alpha chapter No. 1, Order of Eastern Star, was held last evening In the Masonic hall.

Following this was the clever est piece of work that has been car ried out by Ibe star for some time and was In the order of a drill and playlet given by eleven of the chap ter's clever actors, dressed as tulips. The play was entitled "The Rock-a- Bye Lady," and considering the lit tle time given In preparing the play let, It Is hard to see how It could have been improved upon greatly It Is tbe present intention to present the entertainment at some future date before the Medford chapter, either here or at Medford.

After erecting the aerial and having a good ground connection the next step Is to connect the various pieces of ap paratus so you will be able to "listen in" on what America's new giant (radio) is saying. How to connect Instruments: Take the tuning coll and connect the aerial lead-in wire to the binding post to the left, and connect the ground wire to the binding post on the right. The center binding post ot the tuning coil connect to the dou ble binding post of tbe detector, and the small binding post ot the detec tor connect to the ground. Connect each terminal of the telephone re ceiver to each binding post of the detector, and then connect the con denser across tbe telephone receiv ers as shown In the diagram. Mako all connections with the wire you have left over from tbe coll.' Before attempting to receive, it will be necessary to test the piece of galena In order to find the most sen sitive spot and for this purpose we will need a buzzer test. THIS MAP SHOWS "THE PRINCIPAL RADIO BROADCASTING STAT By WM. G. H. FINCH Associate Member Institute of Radio Engineers NEW YORK, April 20. After considerable effort we are able to day to publish a complete list of radio telephone broadcasting sta tions ot the United States, which have been licensed up to and Includ ing April 1, 1922. Tbe map shows the principal stations. Due to lack ot space we are un able to publish the complete data concerning each station and we have had to omit the wave length, station owner and street addresses, as furn ished us by the department of com merce, bureau of navigation, radio service. The majority ot these stations are operating from a 200 to a 365 metre wave length. While a number of them have not a regular schedule of operation, we are safe in saying the majority are broadcasting between 7 and 10:30 p. m. every day.

ACKIAL Test Buzzer Is Needed Purchase an prdlnary buzzer, one dry cell and a push button and con nect as shown in the diagram. If you have an electric door bell bend the hammer back so it will not hit the gong, remove the cover and con nect a piece of wire to the vibrator post and from there to the ground, as shown In the diagram Deaden the noise ot the buzzer as much as possible by covering It, or else place It in another room. It Is not the noise ot the buzzer that does the work, but the vibrator sends out weak electromagnetic (radio) waves and is In reality a mlnature radio transmitting station, and thug en ables you to test the detector, ascer taining if It Is in working condition. How to test the detector: Have patience and after a little practice you will have no difficulty in keeping your detector always in adjustment. Do not be deceived when you touch different connections on your set and hear a sound that the detector is in adjustment. When it is in adjustment the signals and mu sic will be fairly sharp and clear. How to Tune Your Set Adjusting the telephone receivers to your bead, press the buzzer to be sure that the detector Is in adjust ment and, finding it so, take hold of the switch lever on tbe coll and Log Angeles, Calif KQL Oakland, Calif KZM Oakland, Calif KZY Pasadena, Calif KLB Pomona, Calif KGF Sacramento, Calif.

Real, ot Gold Hill. was the guest of Miss Blanche Hleks Thursday. slowly move back and forth, thereby varying the wave length and by so doing bring it into tune (resonance) with a transmitting station. There are stations sending all tbo time, but most of the radio-telephone broadcasting stations transmit be tween 7 add 10 o'clock In the even ings. We will publish at an early date a map giving the calls and lo cations and hours of operation of all the . radio telephone broadcasting stations In the United States. Do not be disappointed it you hear no messages, but prepare yourself to go trouble hunting. Look and see If your aerial Is mak ing an accidental ground by touch ing a part of the roof or some other structure. If so, remedy It. Be sure that all connections are soldered where possible, j There may be an open circuit in i the coil. Connect one post ot buzzer . to one end ot coil, the oth,er post of buzzer to one side of battery and connect the other end of coll to the remaining side of battery, and if the buzzer operates the coll Is all right. Test each tap and coll connection In the same way. If all right, each tap should give a buzz. If not, correct the fault. If you still meet with no success, you have overlooked something. Have patience and go over your set again. IONS IN THE UNITED STATES, Deal Beach, N. J 2XJ Jersey City, N. J WNO Jersey City, N. J 21 A Newark, N. J WOR Newark. N. J 2 SAI Newark, N. J WJZ Albany, N.

ENTERTAIN LADIES OF TALENT As If In honor of the occasion, the weather man who has been most fickle and unpleasant all this month. preseuted the ladies ot the Talent Community club and the Ashland Civic Improvement club with a per fectly gorgeous spring day on Tues day for the delightful afternoon at the parish house when the Civic club was hostess to the Talent club. Miss Chamberluin presided. Mrs. John H. Fuller started things -off lively by leading the crowd In sing ing popular songB. At t tie last the Civic members "sang up" the Talent visitors in approved style. Mrs. Lewis Brown gave an Inter esting account of the purpose, work and accomplishments of the Talent club which she said was originally started to promote good fellowship and improve and beautify the town From this beginning it has enlarged Its scope until now it Is the central motive of community social and edu cational activities. A branch of the Medford public library, which is op en tq the public two afternoons and one evening of every week, ai which time a member of the club acts as librarian, was established by tbe club. Sewing schools and millinery classes under the direction of Miss Poole and Miss Faldlne have been sponsored and many a Talent house wife, like her sister in Ashland, has hied to the "dress form-all day school, and carried into her home an object at which the mere man of the house gazed with mirth, but later beamed with pride on the Easter creation that was made upon it and worn by the happy home dressmaker-tononths Child welfare work Is one of the club's activities, and a chest Is kept supplied with clothing for emer gency cases, for anyone In need. The Albartina Kerr Nursery Home in Portland has been remembered with support, These thoughtful women initiated the establishment of the auto camp ground at Talent, which was used by many tourUts during the season Along with a study course, the club has, during the year, had now and then a good lecturer. Once a month, or oftener, If the occasion calls for it, refreshments are served at the meetings, with members taking turns as hostess. Club dues are 60 cents per year. And so well ffloea the mayor and city council think of this progressive little band of women that they have given them a room with lights and fuel for a regular meeting place. Mrs. D. Perozzl gave a short his torical sketch of the organization ot the Southern Oregon Federation of Women's Cluhs, and urged all who possibly could to attend the coming annual meeting of this federation at Grants Pass, on May 6, when an all day and an evening program will b given. Mrs. J. F. Crawford, who said she was an old lady, but who most cer tainly doesn't look to be one, told of the annual "Old Ladles Party,' which the Talent club gives the first Wednesday of every June. Many of the guests at this party are lrdles who are seldom away from home and some of them are invalids. UuhiuII.v a jolly program Is given with a sprinkling of old time songs. Mrs. Crawford said she thought the club would include the old men In the I festivities after this. Mrs. R. J. Luke, president of tbe Talent club, in behalf of her mem bership, expressed appreciation of the hospitality extended by the Ash land ladies, and said she heartily favored this meeting together and discussing community problems. Mrs. Shortrldge sang that appro priate, sprightly little song "April Showers," with Miss Ward as accom panist. The Civic club will shortly open up tbe salvage shop in the tent adjoin ing the Tidings office, for donations, It was announced. Mrs. A. L. Lamb, Mrs. George O. Jarvis, and Mrs. Will Moore will be In charge. Ashland citizens in general were so very gen erous in their donations to tbe shop last year and now that spring clean ing Is on. Miss Chamberlain said the shop would be ready for gifts of fur niture, clothing, toys, or anything which one wanted to pass on. The only article ot clothing which will not be handled Is old shoes. The room is too small to admit ot hand ling them. Anyone who wishes to donate to the salvage was asked to call up a member of the committee. A delicious two-course luncheon of sandwiches, pickles, cake and coffee was served by the following com mittee: Mesdames W. A. Shell, Gor don MacCracken, William Mitchell, McWmiams and Miss Palmer.
