Heavy imports of corn and bar
ley from South America beginn-
ing this week will ease the live
stock feed situation which develop
ed on Delaware dairy. hog and
poultry farms when farmers
throughout the nation increased
their livestock numbers a year ago
without a corresponding increase
in their grain aceages.
The State feed ALLEGATION COM
mittee of the Delaware Agricultu-
raj Adjustment Agency has al
ready allocated 1900 bushels of
South American barley among Del
aware feed mixers and dealers and
will direct distributions through
regular trade channels of other
South American grain imports.
Corn imports in July will total
G.000.000 bushels.
The barley price is $1.21ls per
bushel c. i. (. New York. plus ap-
rlicable charges. The corn price
is $1.25 per bushel C. i. (. New

sos
An appeal. to farmers for great
er promptness in reporting the ap-
pearance OF dangerous livestock
diseases. as war conservation
measure, has been issued by the
American Veterinary Medical AS
sociation. According to DR.. J. G.
Hardenbergh, secretary of the as
sociation, farmers who try to con-
ceal the presence of dangerous
diseases in their herds do them
selves and their neighbOrs a grave
injustice. Farmers can help pre-
vent the spread of diseases if they
will keep transient trucks and 9TH
er vehicles out of their livestock
lots. says DR.. Hardenborgh.

Bullfrogs are the largest North
American frogs, but are not the
largest in the world. Africa has
some which grow TO much greater
size
The largest of all known frogs are
found in the Cameroons region OF
West-Central Africa. They are
known as ''goliaths,' in memory Of
Goliath, the Philistine giant men,
toned in the Bible.
Goliath frogs reach a length OF
from 20 to "a inches, counting the
large and powerful hind legs. The
body length is about half as great
as the total length.
Some goliath frogs weigh from
10 to u pounds. The Negroes of
West-Central Africa kill and eat
these animals.

Winning Contract
BY THE FOUR ACES.
The Only Chance

1t Is a bridge axiom that when a
contract can be made only against
a certain distribution declarer should
play on the assumption that he will
find exactly that distribution. Some
times, however. a player who is
familiar with this theory still finds
it difficult to figure out exactly what
is the necessary distribution.

West opened the club jack. which

South trumped with the spade six.
Having lost two tricks, with one
diamond trick surely to be lost,
South had to play to avoid the loss
of a trump trick He carelessly
thought it would help him if the
king were singleton, SO he played
the spade ace. Of course, the king
did not drop and he was down one.
But even If the king had dropped
South could not have made his con-
tract, because then West would have
held the jack-nine and would have
to get another trick. If South had
thought longer he would have
realized that only one distribution
would make the hand and luckily it
was the distribution he would find
in this case. South should have
entered dummy with a lead to the
diamond ace and played the spade
queen. East would have to cover
and South would win, dropping the
jack Now the heart ace and a ruff
would put dummy in again to lead
a spade and take fneSse for
