the basis upon which his hopes We're
raised occasions the comment on the
hand. Two aces were unaccounted for
at the third trick
Where were these?
West evidently rejected the idea Of
South's possession Of both. With
knowledge OF fourth suit originally
stopped, he accredited South with
greater courage than 10 seek refuge
behind a minor suit. holding aces in
the other three, especially at a score de-
handing aggressive action. A mental
picture Of South's actual holding could
well be missing in the imagination Of
an occupant Of Vests position.
Vests selection Of clubs instead OF
spades to accomplish the result he so
earnestly strived for is easily eX-
planned. He felt assured that sufficient
tricks IN that suit as a basis for the
adverse game going were not forth
coming. Disappointment therefore in
finding the ace Of clubs with the ad-
versary, he knew could be assuaged
later upon discovery Of the ace Of
spades with his partner.
In the interest Of good auction one
point in the play should not be allowed
to pass by without criticism. That is
in Vests immediate action at the third
trick. He should have led the king OF
hearts before any thought of switch
ing. An all-essential third heart would
still be left HIS partner for a lead
through" providing. Of course, South
had not originally five in the suit. In
the latter event the case would be
hopeless anyway. While the play in
question discussed in a general way,
costs nothing and may result profit
ably, judicious false carding always at
the disposal Of the declarer may make
ensuing efforts alluring and tempt the

Material FOR FILLING SlLOS
Corn viii Produce Mors Dry Matter
Per Acre Than Any Other Crop
Beet Way to Plant.

Many have put up silos and many
will erect them this summer.
Corn IL the best material for filling
them. It will produce more dry mat
ter per acre than any other crop, and
1t cures we'll in the silo.
Machinery is made for handling
corn in the different operations Of ma
king an ensilage. One of the latest
additions to this machinery is an ele
vator that can be attached to the corn
binder and which elevated the corn
bundles on the wagon
It has been found at the North Da-
kota experiment station Ahat an acre
of corn In hills will produce on an
average five to six tons of ensilage.
This means that 1t will take. about 20
hcres to I'LL 100-ton silo. A silo Of
this size will contain enough ensilage
to feed 20 head 40 pounds day for
250 days. An 80ton silo would feed 20
head 40 pounds day for 200 days.
The best way to plant the corn for
the silo h in hills. It can then be
cultivated both ways, which keeps the
land cleaner, and corn should always
be made q cleaning crop. More water
will be stored for next years crop
when the corn IL In hills, and that is
another thing that should be done
when growing corn. .... ........-
Corn has the most food value when
nearly matured. The most feed value
Is obtained from corn put In the silo
when nearly ripe. A greater bulk can
be secured from large corn, but it
does not have the food value Of the
smaller corn pretty we'll matured.
II is best to put the corn in the silo
before freezing, although it can be put
in II frosted, and 1t makes good en-
Bilage, too.
At the Hettinger subetatioQ in the
fall of 1913 the silo was not ready for
Killing when the corn was ready to cut.
30 the corn was cut and put in shocks.
1t remained there about three weeks
before the silo was ready. When It
was run through the cutter. water was
run on to it. It made good ensilage.
though there was loss due to the extra
handling, and It would undoubtedly
have been better ensilage il it could
have been put right into the silo. This,
however, shows what can be done
Ensilage can be fed IN the summer
as we'll as in the winter. and stock re4-

DISTRIBUTION OF THE WORK
Il 10 Necessary 10 Know Approximate
y How Much Labor Each Enter-
prise VIII Require.

In grain growing the labor ID
punched at certain seasons. In diverst
fed farming the work is distributed.
How we'll it is distributed depends on
the crops and stock that make up the
diversi1cation. Corn. for instance.
does not require work At the same time
az the grain crop, unless It be at
threshing time. Haying does not come
at the same time as grain making.
though it may conflict little with the
corn. The corn may need cultivation
when the hay should be cut, though
this can be arranged for.
Beef and hog production fit in with
the grain, corn and hay raising. They
require but little labor when these
crops require attention. :
Dairying can be made to At in with
these crops by practising what IL
known as winter dairying. This puts
the heaviest work OF caring for the
cows in the winter.
In planning the farm enterprises it
how much labor each ono will require.
% we'll as at what times It will need
the labor. The grain crops will need
labor during April and early May, for
preparing the land and seeding; in
August for cutting, and theshing and
blowing any time between then and
freezing up. Corn needs to be planted
by May 20, and will need cultivation
at intervals during June and July, and
some in August. It should be harvested
the first week In September. Alfalfa
needs to be sown in June, and 1t has
pertinent station that the first cutting
will come about July 1, and the second
one, If for hay, during the latter half
of August
So far there has been little conflict
between the three crops. and by hav-
ing the right proportion Of each to fit
in with the machinery and horses used
labor can be kept constantly employed
from early in April till late fall.
If live stock is kept on the farm 1t
will, from this time on. and until spring
work opens up, require more labor
