FINDING ORE WITH RADIO

Prospecting by radio has been simplified by the introduction of im- proved apparatus which already has located veins of ora to a depth of 500 feet (says "Poplar Mechanics). Trained engineers are required to operate the outfit, but it is not dif- ficult to handle, and its accuracy has been tested repeatedly, It employs the principle of electromagnetic in- duction. An electromagnetic field is sent out from a transmitter to a depth of several hundred feet. If an ore vein is within the radius of the field, a current is set up in the conductor, which, in turn, sets up a secondary fteld, and this is de- tected by a direction-finding ap- paratus. By further observations, It is understood that the anthe extent of the are vein is deter- nouncement of the titles of dance mined.

It was found in 1927 that certain music publishers wore obtaining unfair publicity for their particu- lar numbers by the device of com- ing to secret arrangements with orchestra leaders, On the other 'band, music publishers who refus- ed to negotiate with certain chestra leaders were complaining that even when they published first- class numbers which the publie wanted to hear, orchestras refused to play them, and they never reach-. ed B.B.C. listeners.
