two eyes. Single pieces of the potato are placed 10 inches apart in the rows which are "A to 23 inches apart. Seed pieces should be cut blocky rather than wedge-Shaped, as they produce sturdier sprouts. Placing the cut pieces for callusing in a room where the temperature is about 60 degrees and the air is rather humid for about a week is the recommended practice, but seed may be planted without wait ing for caliusing
 Mixing fertilizer with the soil in the bottom of the furrow is advised before planting Manure should not be used unless it had previously been worked into the soil. The seed pieces are planted four inches below the surface, cov- cred with fine soil and mounded slightly over the row to allow for settlement. Cultivation should be- gin as soon as the soil shows signs of caking or when weeds make their appearance. The soil must be kept loose and well-aereted to induce a continuous and steady growth of vines.
 Treatment of seed potatoes be- fore cutting with one of the rec commended compounds, such as yell low oxide, corrosive sublimate or organic mercury, will prevent black scruf injury to early planted po- tatoes. Leftover treated potatoes should not be used for cooking. since the solutions are very poisonous.

I had most interesting letter from a chap in the Royal Nor wegian Air Force His regimental number is sol. He asked me not to use his name as he is afraid ot reprisals against his family, still in Norway, but he did end this hand. We will just call him "501."
 He and his partner certainly used the suit directing play to great advantage in this hand. He cashed the king and then the ace of hearts and. his partner gave him the deuce and five spot.
 So at this point he shifted to the three of clubs. Remember that North had bid club and it was supported by South so it was not unreason- able to believe that East would be out of clubs.
 East trumped and recognizing the fact that his partner by play ing the three of clubs, had asked for the return of the lowest suit no trump, returns, diamond which "5O1" trumped, thus being able to give East another club ruff, setting the contract three tricks.
