THE PLACE OF SWEET
CLOVER IN MODERN FARMING
By d. Krauss.

/ . AAJ aaai NhA tAtIlIIIa
Sweet clover to-day s a crop Of
considerable Importance IN prac-
IDEALLY all sections ofsthe United
States. There has been great ex-
pansion IN Its use In recent years.
Different problems may be met BY
the sowing OF sweet clover. One 81
the principal purposes oR growing
sweet clover Is 10 increase or restore
soil fertility. However. IN many in-
stances sweet clover Is used for hay,
pasture or % produce seed.
The value Of sweet clover as a
soil improEer lies il its ability to
take nitrogen from The air through
the root nodules and store Il IN tiie
roots, stems and laaFes, and to de-,
liver II BY rapid decay when the
plant is turned under. III cptn
yields, an iilcrease of as much an Is
to rs bushels per acre has been Sc
cured where a crop OF sweet clcVer
has been plosfed under. J. An Increase
OF 10 to - bushels per acre in Yields
OF winter wheat was secured nv
ulOwing under in August sweet clo-
yer that was sown ins early sprinn.
practically equal results were. gotten
when sweet clover was allowed 10
grow the second year and passtured
or allowed to mature before being
plOwed under.
In using sweet clover for hay.
both first year and second year crops !
may be used. However, in northern
sections the first year crop does mot

dial defects, offers wholesome leis-
ure time activity and urbanizes ru-
raj children and ruralizes urban
children. Experiments generally in
dictate that rural children are super
ior in most activities requiring
strength and endurance, but infer
iOr in quick reaction, coordination
and rhythm to the urban children.
Physical Education serves as a
means of supplying the deficiencies
found in both rural and urban chill
dren.
More indirectly, physical educa-
tion assists in disseminating au-
thentic health knowledge about sex
and other vital organs at appropri-
ate age levels, thus eliminating the
inquisitive and imaginative ideas of
adolescents, and elevating morals in
general; teaches cooperation
through group participation in team
games, develops courage, initiative
and respect for recognized author
ity; provides sOcializing influences
through interschOol contests; offers
training in emotional stability and
builds higher ideals; increases ap-
probation of wholesome and recre-
atiOnal activities; offers opportunity
for the actual practice of true
sportsmanship-the give and take
which is so necessary in all of life's
span.
The next article in this series will
deal with home economics and its
influence as a health factor in the
of good health.

THE FEDERAL COURT DECIDES

Even advocates of Section z (a)
of the Recovery Act providing col
lective bargaining will admit that
1t has been thorn In the side of
recovery because of its troublesome
qualities. Strikes have ridden on it's
back, wasting millions of man hours
as union organizers fought to set
aside all organizations of labor ex-
cept the national Unions. But now
Federal Judge Nields has at last
brought forth a clean cut ruling
which should develop national em-
ployment relations.
Judge Nields was passing upon
the famous Wierton Steel case in
which the Government had sought
an injunction against the company.
In a sweeping decision quoting the
Supreme Court, the jurist held Sec
tiOn (a) was unconstitutional, and
that the sO-called company union
was legal. To give the Federal gov
ernment control over manufacture,
which was involved in this case,
would be TO take all sovereignty
away from the States, Judge Nields |
said. Manufacture is not interstate !
commerce. But even more important /
he added:
"a relation acceptable and salts
factory to both wOrkmen and man
agement is an essential feature of
It is said this re-
alton involves the problem of the
economic balance of the power of
abor against the power of capital.
"The theory of a balance of pow

DELAWARE STATE
HEALTH COUNCIL
Physical Education As A Factor In
The Promotion OF Good Health.
BY George T. Hendricks

State Director. Physical and Health
Education and Chairman OF the
Delaware State Health Council
This is the first of a series of
health articles to introduce the ac-
tfvities of the Delaware State Health
Council. This Council is now in ils
third year of effective service. In
1928 major emphasis was CENTER
ed on the promotion Of a Statewide
correctional program of physical de-
fects among school children.
Through individual and community
help, over $50 of the defects dis
covered in 1928 were corrected,
whereas only $50 were corrected
during 192S-29 In 1933-34, the Coun-
Gil encouraged the establishment of
several demonstration health CEN
ters in schools throughout the
State. In these centers the projects
illustrated the value of unified
health program. Accordingly, mt
present emphasis is being placed on
the educational and preventive good
health measures.
The Health Council neither sOlic-
its nor expends any funds but SER
yes as an instigatOr and also as a
clearinghouse in school health
problems. The primary purpose OF
the Council is to improve the health
level of the present and future Del [
awareans. Subsequent articles to he |
presented by the Council members !
will deal with home economics, tu-
berculOsis prevention, nutrition, den .
tai, school and child hygiene.
We all appreciate the multitude of
factors involved in the promotion of
good health. Physical education may
well be included as one Of the health
determinants since activity is nee
essary for good health-the elusive,
undefinable possession which all
men desire but few cherish This
condition of well-being ceases fire.
quently to be a blessing unless we
develop and protect it above all
other worldly possessions; in brief,
we humans must continually work
for it. DR.. J. F. Williams of COlum-
bia University, states that, Good !
health is that condition which per-
mits its possessor to live most and ;
serve best" If this statement is ac-
ceptable. we can, within our own po-
tential capacities, acquire and main '
tain varying degrees of goUd health ]
throughout life; but as previously
intimated, good health is dependent S
upon a large number of factors, any
one of which if neglected may dis
rupt the complete functioning of the i
others.
What is physical education and
what does it contribute to good
health? Primarily, physical e1uca-
lion is bodily movement; broader
concept embodies a graded program Y
of activities suited to the age, sex, &
abilities and interests of the indi- Il
vdual. Physical Education favorably il
effects the development of the vital e
organs, growth and strensth of c

DANGERS FROM WITHIN

America has not foreign enemies
besetting its shores today, but with
in our own gates we have a. more
dangerous enemy-those people who
are magnifying distress and setting
one group of citizens at the throats
Of another by the spreading of false
propaganda.
No one denies that there are mil
lions of people still without jobs at
this time despite the decrease Of
recent months. But sane people Will
deny that because this condition ex-
lists we must tear down American
institutions and move so hastily that
we endanger the jobs of the great
er number of millions who have
Jobs. Sane Americans will resent
the attempts which are being made
to appeal to passion and emotion as
the lever for foisting foreign exper-
iments upon this country.
Describing this type of propagan-
dist as "passiOnmongers," DR.. John
Dickinson, assistant Secretary of
Commerce, ably described this dan
gerous group as follows:
ITO ring the alarm bells Of pas
sion, to set citizen against citizen,
labor against capital and capital
against labor, to envenom nation /
against nation and the people I
against their government is far
easier road to notoriety and a brief
lays power than patiently to an
llyze the processes of industry and
inance and seek to heal their Ills
,y constructive craftsmanship, but
he type of power founded on hate
md frenzy to which such demagog-
lery leads is the power which de-
troys democracy and from which
lations perish"

in dummy with an honor. if he does hold the three of clubs. But suppose West made the mistake or not continuing with the club and returned the six of hearts. This would be won in dummy with the queen.
 Now the declarer realizes thai his only chance to make the con tract is to establish a spade trick on which to discard his club. IT he leads a small spade from dummy naturally West will jump right in with his ace and then, 1T he makes the club play. the hand is defeated.
 If West does hold the ace. the declarer doesn't want him to go up with it on the first play. SO his play should be to lead the queen or spades from dummy. West will not figure North for q singleton king and wlll probably duck the trick.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem

There are a number of different strategic plays with which you should be familiar in the play of the hand at contract.
 Today's hand combines a strate- gic move on the part of the de- fense to defeat the hand, and if the defense slips, then the declareT has a chance to make nice strate gic play that may give him five odd.
 Easts opening lead is the queen of clubs. It is covered by the king from dummy, West winning the trick with the ace. The declarer plays the four of clubs, concealing the three spot. West plays the jack of clubs and the declarer plays the six.
 Now. at this point West does not know which hand holds the three of clubs. However. he should rea- son that, unless his partner holds three trumps to the jack, the dia- mond finesse being safe, there Is probably no way to defeat the con- tract.
 Vests safest play now should be to cash the ace of spades and then. if he gets a small spade from his partner. he should shift to the ten of clubs. This might establish a trump trick for his partner. since declarer will be forced to trump
