PROBABLY the declarer won the
opening club lead in his own hand
to lead towards dummy. Instead of
trying that form of play, win with
dummy's K of clubs, to at once en-
deavor establishment of dummy's
diamonds, by leading the K. 1t is
probable that West led his only dia-
mond and that North played the 9,
causing dglarer to play the @.
Having won that trick Unexpectedly
he did not know what to do next.
North should win the first dia-
mond led from dummy. The hand
may be played in many ways, with
similar results in the end. Sup
pose that North leads spade, after
winning the second trick with the
Ace of diamonds. AS at least one
spade trick must be lost, play dunn
my's and allow South to win the
trick. That player can do no harm.
Win the return lead of club
with declarers Ace. Lead a low
trump. With three trumpS honors
missing at least one heart trick
must be lost. Cover North's with
dummy's 9, losing to South's To-.
A return lead of a low heart will do
as little damage to defenders as
anything else. Play low from declar-
ing hand, when North's K falls, win
with the Ace, but do not at once
lead trumps back. Lead the @ of
diamonds. Discard one of declarer's
| spades.
The 9 of diamonds falling from
North's hand makes it seem possible
to establish that suit before dunn
my's Ace of spades is lost. At the
eighth trick lead and ruff a dia-
mond dropping North's j, as hoped,
and leaving the suit established in
dummy. Lead the @ of hearts, pick
ing up the last opposing trump and
leaving declarer with a single trump
for later use.
Lead declarer's last spade. Win
with the Ace. Lead dummy's good
10 and 8 of diamonds. Discard de-
clarer's two losing clubs. Lead dunn
rhys last spade. Ruff with declarer's
last trump, just giving West his
4-odd.
Although it may appear that
North's lead of a second club, when
he wins with his Ace of diamonds,
will be better than a lead of spades,
If followed out carefully it will be
found that variation in defensive
tactics will not defeat the contract
West should make 4-odd at hearts.

CCC ENROLMENT

A new Civilian Conservation Corps
enrolment program, effective octo-
Der /, 1885, is now in progress to re-
place men who dropped out prior to
that date, and to increase the
strength of the corps above the total
of $4,000, the figure reached Aug
ust 81, of this year, as announced by
Mr.. Robert Fechner, Director of
Emergency Conservation Work.
1t is expected that over 100000
young men and veterans will be en-
rolled by the War Department. in the
CCC during October.
The reduction in the age limit for
CCC enrolees makes 1t possible for
physically fit youths of seventeen to
participate in the Emergency Conser-
walton Work, provided they come
from families now on public relief
rolls.

INCREASE IN PORK PRODUCTION
OVER 1885 is DESIRED

A considerable increase in pork
production over that produced during
1894 35 is desirable during the next
three years, but nothing in the pres
ent outlook for domestic pork mar
kets warrants an uncontrolled ex-
pansion, according to reports which
DR.. T. B. Symons, director of the
state extension service, has received
from AAA officials.
Continuation of the gradual eco
nomic recovery which has been under
way may bring some further i'm
provement in domestic demand when
the 1886 pig crop comes to market,
it states, but the storage demand dur
ing the coming season may not be as
strong as in the previous years in
view of an expected increase in
slaughter supplies next summer.
Any price-raising influence OF the
improved consumer demand would
be mere than offset, it is believed, by
tie price-depressing erect OF the III
creased hog supplies.
While some increase in hog pro-
duction is desirable from the stand
point of both consumers and pro-
ducers, the danger, it is stated, 1s
that the increase will get out of hand
as i. has in past years and eventually
react against both producers and
users of pork.
In the nationwide referendum to
be held Saturday, October 90, it will
be up to farmers to decide whether
they wish TO continue an adjustment
program designed to hold corn pro-
duction down to a desirable level and
prevent an excessive increase in hog
numbers.

Chicago, H., Oct. 7.-Expenditure
of more than S1,300,000 by the gas

protection of the public by appliance

tic here today by George E. Whit
we'll, vice-president in charge of

Few people realize the extent to
which our testing establishment has
participated in the solution of many
of our industry's most complex prob
lems," Mr. Whitwell said. Briefly,
its activities have been subdivided in
to two general classes, namely, appli-
lnce testing and applied research
work Total expenditures for such
purposes during the past ten years
were $1,355, sos. Revenue result
ing from appliance testing and in
spection activities for the same
period has equaled S1,O27,203 The
difference between these Two sums
has been secured largely from the

md 1933-34 the Laboratory's .appli-
ance testing activities have proven

Since It's establishment, our test
ing organization has conducted sepa-
rate tests on more than $500 basic
models of domestic appliances and
from such tests extended approval
by inspection to some 10000 others,
