LEARN THE PATTERN

UNTIL YOU learn the pattern
necessary for making a double
squeeze play. you are not very
likely to put one over. except by
sheer luck. Usually. besides the
card on which neither opponent
can follow suit. there is a card in
the same hand which you can lead
to the top card Of its suit in the
opposite holding, and also a single
card OF the third suit which can
be guarded only by the defender
at its right. and in the opposite
hand. another single card OF the
fourth suit which can be guarded
only by the defender at its right.
If you build that arrangement,
the opponents are squeezed be-
yond repair.

Will Limit Service
Lines After May ]

Under recent orders from the War
Production board, all construction OF
electrical service lines to any one
home or farm will be limited to 25O
feet after May l. Until that time
1000 feet of new construction is per-
missable, states Howard Shaw, man.
ager of the North Pine Electric Co
operative, who urges anyone desiring
service to act at once.
The 25O-foot limit will apply to
all non-defense projects, both REA
and private utilities.
Ben Hedlund of the Minnesota
Power and Light Company states
that restrictions in the use of crit
ical materials such as copper wire,
metals and rubber insulating mater
ials make it impossible to make line
extensions and connections in Ger
tain instances which could easily be
accomplished in normal times.
"Anyone who intends to build a
dwelling or who moves into home
which is not already connected to
electric lines should first determine
whether electrical connections can
be made under wartime restrictions, .
said Mr.. Hedlund.

have a place in the wartime food
budget of Minesotans busy helping
to win the war? What can each food
contribute to good health and energy?
How much does person need OF
each in day? How much should
the family have year and how can
plans be made to insure an adequate
supply?
These questions are being discussed
at group meetings all over the county
as a part of this months program of
feeding the family for health, morale
and victory, says County Agent Max

garden vegetables, fruit, cereals,
sweets, meat and eggs.

Decline Noted In
Slaughter Cattle
Most Classes Lose Ground /;
Swine Hit New High;
Lambs Up.

South st. Paul, Mimi, April IA,
1912: Most slaughter classes in the
cattle division lost price ground early
this week according to the Federal
State Market News Service. Steers
and yearlings were weak to mostly
Csc off, the greatest loss appearing
on medium and good kinds. Heifers
were weak, while cows and bulls were
mostly 25c off. A bulk spread of
$10.50 to $3.50 took most of the
medium and good steers, included in
this price range liberal number of
Canadians. A few good mixed year
ling and similar grade mediumweight
steers brought $500 to $3.50, COM
mon and medium heifers sold large
ly from $3.50 to $10.50, with scat
tering of medium and good kinds at
$11.00 to SLIPS. Gamer and cutter
cows ranged from $6.25 to $500,
while common and medium beef cows
brought 1925 to $925. Medium and
good sausage bulls had spread of
So. 90 to $1,000 with occasional strict
ly good beef bulls at $10.25. The
vealer trade was steady to weak.
Most good and choice vealers were
taken at $11.OO to $3.50, while strict
ly choice kinds went at $14.00 to
$14.50, mainly on Kosher orders.
Stockers and feeders remained about
steady.
Hit New High.
Although swine prices opened the
weeks trading at around 15c higher
levels, revisions were in order on the
ensuing session. In the two day ac-
tivity, new high mark was estab-
lished on Monday at $14.40 for good
to choice butchers weighing for an
average ITO pounds upwards and
sows reached $14.30. Price changes
allowed on Tuesday dropped mostly
10c from the early advance. A slight
increase in receipts will be noted
around the major live circuit. The
trend for feeder pigs will bring forth
only minor changes, with most of the
good and choice lots noted from $3.50
to $13.75, some strongweights around
the $14.00 figure.
Slaughter lambs sold at steady rates
early, but on Tuesday an improve
ment in demand was noted with late
sales being made on strong to 15c
higher basis. Other slaughter and
replacement classes reflected no price
changes. Good and choice fed
wooled lambs sold at $1,000 to $3.50
and shorn lambs with No. 2 pelts made
$10.75. Choice kinds with No.
skins realized SLIPS. Good and
choice fat ewes brought $500 to $3.50,
while lightweight shorn ewes turned
at $500 to $3.50. Good and choice
white-face feeding and shearing
lambs went out at SLIPS.
