INTRODUCED ELK
FORAGE OFF FARMS
Ample Range Needed for the
Long Distance Travellers.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April 12. "A
number Of States which have attempted
to stock elk are ruling their action.
owing to the damage that is done by
these animals in their frequent incur
sions ON farms In the vicinity Of their
range" says Peter p. Carney. editor
of the National Sports Syndicate.
AS matter OF fact in many IN
stances. says Mr.. Carney. elk travel
long distances for the food that they
fn6.
The game authorities Of Virginia
state that they would willingly do away
with the elk brought into that State.
ana the game department Of Washing
ton reports that rather than 60 back
into the hills the elk turned loose are
inclined to forage on the farms.
In view OF the experience that other
Commonwealths have had II Ia probable
that State game authorities who have
not yet tried the elk viii investigate
the subject very thoroughly before de-
Gliding to introduce them.
What has been said Is not meant to
imply that no stocking OF these animals
should be done, but certainly they should
not be turned out in any State unless
there is ample range which is supplied
with a great abundance OF natural food
the year round"

New Jersey lakes have been stocked
with black bass, crappie. yellow perch
and pickerel netted by the State Fish

were als8 procured for stocking the bass
pools at the State Fish Hatchery at
Hackettstown.
In addition to the game fish above
mentioned. thousands OF small bait FISH
were netted and transferred to the new
habitat IN order that the transplanted
game fish may find an abundance of nat
ural food

The canals and reservoirs have here

auguratlon of bass breeding at the
State hatchery was attended with such
results during its initial season. in 1918,
that thousands Of young bass were raised

BY r. F. FOSTER.

1t may be laid down as an axiom in auc-
ton that the first bid should be purely
mechanical, based on the principle OF
probability alone. as there is nothing TO
guide the player but the thirteen cards
before him. The basis Of this mechanical
system is that a hand containing four
tricks out of the thirteen TO be played
for should have bid. unless the dis
tribution is unfavorabie. as when the
four tricks are IN very short suit.
1tsis true that countless thousands of
players do not know four tricks when
they see them, but that is not the fault
OF the system. They will tell You that
ace and king at The top OF suit are
two tricks only. when II can be proved
automatically that they are worth four
X you play the hand.
After the first bid. everything Is in
fuenced more or less by the previous
declarations; but there are still certain
probabilities In favor Of certain bids
and against others 1t would seem that
SO far no one has been able to calculate
these odds, o. at least to demonstrate
them SO conclusvely that they shall be-
come generally adopted.
The point about all probabilities is
that one must have faith In his win
ming out In the long run, no matter how
often he may fail in certain cases
Four aces will always BIB a no-trump bid
even II the contract is set for three
tricks now and then.
Take tho question OF overcalling no.
trunpcrs. second hand. with the lead
There are three things to do: pass
double or bid. One would imagine that
which TO do and on what strength
should I've easily settled by calculation
~ q
king second hand at whist. which was a
bone OF contention among whist players
for more than a century.
Some persons will tell you II Is i'm
possible to lay down any rules for over
calling no-trumpers. because the original
bid may vary so greatly in strength.
But that comes under the head OF aver
ages. II you can devise a system that
will heat the average no-trumper you
can certainly beat those that are below
average, and there are very few much
above.
AZ the result OF examining some two
thousand deals in which both dealer and
Second hand held potential no-trumperr
/ have come TO the conclusion that there
il no system OF bidding that will beat
averages; therefore there Is no use bid
ding second hand, nor doubling, which
is the same thing.
Another result was the discovery that
| IL the original no-trumper was below
average the chances in favor Of over
calling It second hand were not i'm
proved, but reduced. In other words
| It Is tudcious to sit tight il the no
| trumper Ia strong. and still more so Il
| II Is weak.
| The players who argue in favor o
bidding against the dealers no-trumper:
because so many OF the mare veal
| overlook two points. They are pulling
| the bad bidder out of a hole. and thel
are passing up an opportunity for penal
ties They are playing for or
points a trick, instead Of so. Here Is {
