Numerical superiority Is not al
ways the determining factor In max
ing the choice between two suits in
the selection OF trump. We have
| from time to time observed cases in
which q four-card suit was made
trump (partner having indicated
that he had four Of that suiD reserv-
ing a five-carder on the side, which
provided the necessary discards.
do not at the moment recall previ-
ously having come across hand
where a well-supported six-card
major was relegated to the back
ground, in favor Of q four-card
minor. But here Is the striking case.
The normal contract Of six spades
was reached at most tables Of the
tournament in which this hand was
dealt. When the heart flnesse failed
and the diamond honors would not
drop, another case was charged up
to hard luck. One pair abandoned
the quest for maximum and were
willing to accept the lower score OF
the minor suit slam because they
felt it was safer and earned a rather
unusual top score.
South opened with one spade and
North decided against an immediate
jump shift, though his hand was
fully worth it. He wished to provide
himself with sufficient elbow space
to show hearts, diamdonds and
spades without getting up into the
stratosphere before giving COM
plete description of his hand. South's
rebid of two spades is on the con-
servative side, but three-spade call
would have been q gross overbid.
When North showed his second
suit, South was under compulsion to
make constructive bid and raised
to four. North now bid five spades
This would appear to run counter to
the modern practice, sponsored by
this department. which provides that
a player who mentions three suits
and also jumps promises singleton
in the fourth suite. North. however,
felt his previous bidding had been so
conservative that he could take the
liberty Of exaggerating In this re-
spect.' South elected to bid the slam
in diamonds, which still permitted
North to return to spades, which,
however, North declined to do. on
the theory that South's spades would
provide discards for Norths losers In
either clubs or hearts. In his judg-
ment, he was vindicated. His only
loser was trump trick.

HERE'S HOW THEY TALK.

lJGDleS hO0SetetL.j
Voice: Tenor of warm and reso-
nant quality. The placement Is for
ward in the oral and nasal cavities
and the frontal sinuses. It Is
voice that is flexible. expressive, and
which mikes 'splendidly.
Enunciation: Much above the
average for lay broadcasters. His
speech is on the lips, which enables
him to maintain . brisk tempo
without sacrificing understandable
ity, or without tripping over his
own tongue.
Style: Pleasantly eolloquial. or
what Is called the style OF wsn-bred
ease. James Roosevelt has . much
more pleasant radio personality
than his brother Elliott.
James has neither echoed the
somewhat Harvardized accents of
his late father, nor adopted the elo-
cution- school artificialities of his
celebrated mother. Hence, he speaks
with manly, forceful individuality,
both when reading from prepared
script and In extempore speaking.
Pronunciation: Standard Ameri-
can and very accurate. He does not
use the broad A except in the word
rather" He prefers "eye-ther"
and "ny-ther" to the more custom
ary "ee-ther" and "nee-ther.' He
does not drop or obscure the Anal
"r," as did the late President.

proper temperature.
An to 10 pound bird is set in a
1926 degree oven for to 31a hours
A turkey four pounds heavier re-
quires the same temperature oven
but is allowed four hours longer to
cook. For birds larger than IA
pounds use a 300 degree oven and
add " hour of cooking time for
each four pounds. A 20-pound bird,
for example, will take five to six
hours to roast. w.
Do not add water or cover pan
while roasting. If drippings burn,
the oven is too hot. If the cloth
covering the bird dries during cook
ing, remoisten from fat at bottom
of pan. Turn bird breast up when
about "a done. Remove cloth If
more browning is desired.

feels soft. This is done by pressing
the thickest part of the drumstick
with fingers. The leg joint also

The well painted barns and
houses, the new automobiles, the
handicapped grounds around the
farm house, the good fences all
Of these one sees on dairy farms,
fruit farms or potato farms. The
farms that appear to be falling
apart are almost always practic-
ing agriculture in the old pioneer
pattern. A good many Of them are
closing down each year or shift
ing over to specialization in order
to improve income and living stand
ards or even to survive.
It is all part of the vast agricul-
tural revolution now in progress and
it is the result of pressureS from
our highly integrated, mechanical
industrialized civilization. The farm
is no longer a frontier outpost in
the defense against Indian attack
when it was necessary to produce
nearly everything that was con-
Sumed.
In most productive areas Of
the u. S. today, a farmer is an
integral part of our social, me-
chanical, economic structure
using electricity, gasoline. ma
chinery, prepared feeds and
other things which bind him into
the whole structure SO that he
must integrate himself and his
farm into the structure in order
to survive.
The farmer Of tie future will not
be a neutrality-suspicious., but a
businessman, a scientist and spe-
cialist. All of US will benefit by the
change in terms Of prices lowered
through efficiency, In terms Of
health and in terms Of taxes which
no longer will be needed to subsi-
die farms living by pattern which
has become obsolete and which, in
the past, has cost us dearly in
many ways.
The passing of the general farm
does not mean the passing OF the
family-sized farm. It is not ques-
ton of the amount of land but of
how it is used and what the farm
plan is. A specialized farm OF 100
acres operated under an efficient
plan produces to 10 times as
much intome with much less labor

"Becanse the general farm cannot
support q bieb degree of mechanical
ton, the general farmer must aO0rk
long bOnrs, do things in an old
fashioned, sIow and inefficient aOAy."
zation, the general farmer must
work long hours, do things in an
old-fashioned, slow and inefficient
way. His gross income is almost
certain to be only a fraction of
that of the specialist in dairying,
grass farming, corn and hogs, fruit.
potatoes or any other undertaking
where man is doing one or two
things efficiently and well, instead
of 10 or Is things .ineficiently. slow
ly and painfully.
/ know of one specialist farm of
160 acres, raising apples, raspber-
ries and hybrid seed corn which
last year crossed $4,000. 1t is high
ly mechanical. Alfalfa is grown not
to feed cattle but to mulch orch
ards and raspberries. The labor
schedule is balanced the year round
with no peaks and no slack periods.
All attention is focused upon the
three specialties and high produc-
ton yields per acre rather than
gambling upon high prices to sur
vive is the basis of all operations
The income is high and the hours
short because the farmer is operat-
ing efficiently.
The same acreage, operating
as a general farm with a few
chickens, a few cows, q few
hogs, a few acres of wheat,
oats, corn or hay, could have
produced a maximum gross in
come, even in these times of
high prices, of only about
$4,000 or $1,000, with a net of
not more than $1,000.
The farmer would be at the
mercy of a custom bailer, corn
picker, combine or haybailer, and
would be forced to do things the
hard, old-fashioned way and fire.
quently suffer losses because the
machinery was not available when
his crops were ready. Bad weather
or sudden decline ip prices can ruin
him or reduce him to subsistence
level.
1 suspect that in another gener-
alton the old-fashioned general
farm will have become a curiosity
except in poor agricultural areas
where a few farms cling to the
old ways. Anyone with an observant
eye driving through agricultural
country can see for himself the
waning of the old pattern.
