UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Southern Chile has a cold climate
and northern Chile has a warm
climate. That may seem Dlt
strange, but we can see the reason
plainly when we remember that
things are turned around" south
OF the torrid zone.
The southern end of Chile is far
closer to the South Pole than the
northern end. The farther south
one goes in that part OF the world
the closer he comes to the frigid
zone.
Chile right now is having spring
while we are having autumn. 1t
will be summer down there when
we are in the midst of winter.
Southern Chile has much snow
during June, July and August. In
other seasons it suffers heavy down.
pours of rain.
Forests cover vast areas in south
ern Chile and it is hard for a per-
son to get through them because
the trees, bushes and vines grow so
thickly. Slow-moving rivers wind
through the forests in some parts
and at times overflow their banks
and form marshes. Travellers who
try to walk from one side of a forest
to another must be on the lookout
for quicksand.
In northern Chile the climate is
warmer, but plant life does not
grow so we'll Thousands of square

That, however, is only one of the
ways nitrate can be used. One form
of it-silver nitrate-has place in
medicine and also in photography.
Sodium nitrate is of value in Civ
ing richness to soil. Thousands Of
farmers have obtained better crops
after treating their fields with this
substance.
1t may seem odd that something
which can help the soil is found in
deserts where little plant life grows.
There is a way to explain the fact,
however-the beds of nitrate are
"too much OF a good thing" They
are far too thick for the purpose
of a farmer.
Chile's nitrate fields are mainly
on the side OF mountains. Most
of them are found at heights Of
three-fourths of a mile to a mile
and q half above sea level.

South took the opening club lead
with the club ace and thought first
of leading out the ace and king of
trumps. If the trump queen fell,
he could finish drawing trumps and
then easily take the slam with
dummy's top hearts. But he saw in
time that if the trump queen failed
to fall, the slam would depend on
getting a very good heart break.
Since, as a matter of fact, the
hearts were not we'll distributed
South was very wise to reject this
play.
The play which next occurred to
South was to take the club king,
ruff the low club, cash the trump
ace and then run the top hearts.
If two rounds of hearts got by
safely, the slam was home, for he
could discard the losing diamond
on the third heart and then could
afford to give up trump trick.
The only flaw in this play was the
order of the tricks. There was no
reason to ruff the club before cash.

second trick South led a trump to
dummy's ace and then returned
club to his own king. The next step
was to ruff the low club and, when
East discarded, South congratulated
himself on his effective precaution.
He then laid down dummy's high
hearts, discarding the losing dia-
mond on the last. West could
ruff if he liked but couldn't win
another trick.
