In order to make the use of the
labor and the saving due to getting
the work done at the proper time
must more than pay for the use of the
machine. the Irvine, and the labor OF
the horses.
The saving is greater when cutting
for silage, for several reasons. The
binder saves the labor of at least two
men In cutting. Often the saving In
time due to having the stalks In
buadles instead of loose will enable
the operator further TO reduce tht2
size of the crew. IL only small
amount of silage is TO be put up, n
binder would not be q paying opera
ton unless there were large guam
tity of other corn to cut. The coop
erative use of both binder and cutter
is discussed and is recommended
where the only corn cut is that for
silage. Cooperative ownership and
use of the binder is said to be fire.
quently advantageous for small farm
ers The use of the corn elevator In
connection with the binder is dis
cussed and both the advantages and
disadvantages pointed out.
Platform Harvester Cheaper.
The platform harvester, while a
cruder machine than the binder. Ia
much less expensive to purchase. re
quires only one horse instead of three
or four, and two men instead of
three. It's days work is about four
or five acres. Generally, the eQulva-
lent of the labor of one man is saved
every day the platform harvester Is
used. The work is harder with the
platform harvester than with the
binder. But the platform harvester
can be used more profitably on small
farms than can a binder and 1t can
stand idle greater part of the time
or wear out sooner than binder and
still be profitable investment. In
cutting corn for silage. the platform
harvester will not save as much labor
as binder.

PITCHING SILAGE FROM SILO
Usual Method of Removing Is to Use
Five or Six-Tine Fork-Carrier
Is Ideal for Pit.

The usual way of removing silage
from the silo is to use a five or six
tine fork. If the silO is not Of too
great diameter it is comparatively
easy TO pitch the silage through the
door. If the silO Is underground and
too deep TO pitch out the silage, it
can be taken out by lowering the
truck into the silo, filling it. and then
elevating It by means of a block and
tackle or by horse or gasoline engine.
The litter carrier is ideal for remov-
ing silage from the pit.

The third fnessing position, general
ly known as the ace jack ten fnessc, is
not only one Of the most important
in the game of auction, but one of
the most common 1t differs from the
other illnesses in the fact that one Of
The tricks must inevitably be lost, no
matter how the cards lie.
Like the ce-quccn-jack fnessc, it
requires two leads from the weaker
hand to be arranged for in advance.
There are four positions for the king
and queen, which are held by the ad-
vcrsaries. These two cards may be
together on the right or on the left;
or they m:y be divided, the king be-
.ng the card to the right, or to The left.
By leading from the weaker hand
twice, inessing the ten the first time
and the jack the next, there is OBJ
viously only one OF these four positions
that will lose twice, and that is. when
both king and queen are in the same
hand, to the left Of the ace. In all
the others, only one of those two high
cards can win sure trick, and moth
ing can prevent two tricks being made
with the ace jack-ten, perhaps more.
Just as it is useless to lead queen
to an ace, so it is useless to lead the
jack or ten to the ace-rn, or ace
jack, unless the nine is also part of
the combination, or the suit is very
long. Unlike the separation Of the
ace and queen, there is nothing to be
accomplished by leading from the ace
sto the jack or ten.
More tricks are won or lost in the
management of these ace jack ten f.
nesses than in any other part of the
game, either through want of fore
sight in planning for the two leads
from the weaker hand or through over
looking the play entirely. Here is an
example:
