He knows positively that his partners
club suit Is K 10 x x x: consequently,
he must have two tricks in the other
suits. There can only be K-Q of spades
and (a) the kings of hearts and dia-

and nothing in hearts. Diamonds
could be spades and vice versa in eacn

The former combination means thirteen

fled by the opponents setting up q

agonized discarding on the clubs. II

true Bryant McCampbells Auction
Tactics published about 1915, con-
tained the principles of the artificial
club bids. Ee advocated bid of one
in a minor suit as conventional OPEN
ing bid which partner must take out,
preferably in a no-trurnp; the first bid
promised no length in the suit named
which might be three-card holding
This idea was revived in modern con-
tract in perfected form by Mr.. Wander
bilt. Sims players should also pay
the tribute of an appreciative thought
to this great player of an earlier genera
ton when they open third or fourth
hand on a very sketchy minor suit
rather than bid an unsound no trump.
Had Mr.. McCampbell lived into the
contract era, know he would have
ridiculed the idea of bidding contract
in terms of auction "a hours after he
had started the new game. Yet, the
majority of contract players are still
doing that very thing after six years.

1t was the dusky hour OF early eve
ming, not really dark, and not really
light. Peter was outside the dear Old
Briar-patch nibbling sweet clover. He
was only nibbling. He wasn't eating
in his usual hearty fashion. He would
bite off a leaf and then hop over to
another clump and bite off leaf there.
Each hop took him farther from the
dear Old Briar-patch. Presently there
was a thump in the dear Old Briar-
patch. He heard it. On, yes. he heard
it. But he pretended he didn't. He
took another hop and bit of another
clover leaf.
Instantly there was another thump.
IT was louder than the frs one. 1t

angry-sounding thump Still Peter pre-
tended not to hear it. Out from the

Hens That Do Not Lay

II one could be certain that he has
hens and pullets In his flock that
would not lay any eggs until next
spring he would not want to feed

One way of reducing the feed
cost of producing eggs is to Gull
out undesirable birds at intervals
frequent enough to prevent their
getting very much feed without pay
ing for It, Among the laying flock
there are hens of this class such as
those that loafed through the sum-
mer, laying too few eggs to be
profitable. There may also be dis
eased hens or those out of condi
tion that should not be carried any
longer. Among the pullet flock may
be poorly developed. diseased, or
otherwise unfit birds that should
come out. It is not quite fair, nor

Mate One Goose and One
Gander for Best Results

The best success In mating geese
is likely TO follow the practice of
mating one goose with one gander.
If two geese Eun with one gander
one Is likely to be neglected and
her eggs will be infertile. If you
have several geese and an equal
number of ganders allow them to
pair Off by their own choice and
you will likely have no trouble.
One breed OF geese may be consid-
cred as good as another. The main
thing is to get birds of good type
OF any breed. The Toulouse is the
most common breed In many local
tiles and should be easy to get and
satisfactory TO raise. The male
bird has a louder voice than the fe-
male; he leads the way when they
go on parade or foraging. He is
the guardian and is always on the
lookout for danger and sounds the
alarm. He Is not likely to be as
large as the female but he carries
himself In dignity and commanding
style-Montreal Herald.

FARM :
POULTRY
FINDS ANCESTRY OF
POULTRY IMPORTANT
Inherited Weaknesses Cut
Egg Production.

Prepared by Poultry Department. Ohio
State University.-WNU Service.
The ancestry of chicks may make
them profitable additions to the
farm tlocks or total losses, according
to G. S. Vickers of the Ohio Poultry
Development association, who says
that among the factors inherited by
chicks are early maturity, tendency
TO winter rest, broodiness, Intensity
and persistence of production, and
egg size.
1t has been shown clearly that
the birds laying first or earliest,
other things equal, are the best
birds and lay the most eggs. The
factor of early maturity in chick
ems is inherited and a chick is
hatched with certain potentialities
along this line, which no amount of
care or feeding can change.
Certain hens rest during the win
ter when eggs are high. They trans
nit this tendency to their offspring.
If 1t is present there is a cut in
egg production. Another factor in
herited by the birds is the tendency
to broodiness. Now with the help
of scientific Investigations, broodi-
ness Is being bred out of certain
birds.
BY intensity is meant the num-
Der of eggs bird lays each month.
This ability of the hens to lay fast
or slow is of the greatest impor-
tance In determining profits. 1t is
inherited. Chicks have it or they
don't have 1t, and nothing can
change their fundamental qualities.
