This is either because the part
ner of the critic is too embar-
Tassed and fluStered to figure it
out or because the other players
are not interested in what might
have been and are anxious to get
on to the next hand.
But nobody gets away with this
when Mr.. Champion is in the
game. When anybody, partner
or opponent. makes an allega-
ton, he's got to prove it.
In today'S deal. Mr.. Abel took
the first trick with the king of
diamonds and switched to a
trump. Mr.. Champion won.
pulled trumpS and lost a spade
finesse to Mr.. Heinsite'S king.
Back came a club, covered with
the queen and won by the ace.
The king of clubs won the club
return and Mr.. Champion was
able to get rid of his third club
on dummy's good spades, thus
making four-odd.
mo way to beat it, partner"
remarked Mr.. Abel.
Wanna bet?" asked Mr.. Helm
site belligerently. Just make
the obvious shift to a low club
at trick two. Champion can win
with the queen, but when I'm in
with the king of spades, club
return through the king will pick
up two tricks and beat the hand"
III take your bet" said Mr..
Champion. who was irritated by
Mr.. Heinsite's use of the word
obvious" And 1 insist on CIV
ing you 100-to-1 Odds"
Mr.. Heinsite made no move to
accept this extremely fair offer,
and Mr.. Champion went on to
explain:
IF Abel shifts to a low club at
trick two. I make the obvious
play of letting you win with the
nine. You return club and my
queen loses to the ace. But then
you're through.
If third club is led, win
with the king, take two rounds
of trump ending on the board
and discard my losing spade on
dummys good club. If Abel
leads anything else after taking
the ace of clubs, it's the same
thing. I lose two clubs, but I
don't lose any spades"

Sheep at the Hanford Atomic Energy
Commission plant in Washington are
shown here getting a special touch in
their daily diet-a carefully measured
amount of I-I3l. radioactive iodine.
More than 200 sheep are kept at the
plant for testing the tolerance of ami
mails to radioactive wastes from the
production of plutonium. One of these
wastes is radioactive iodine. Amount
released by the plant is minute and the
particles are diluted almost 10 the
vanishing point in the air. However.
some of these particles fall 10 the
ground upon vegetation eaten by man
and upon grazing land. Protective
clothing and lead-lined containers are

ton injury.

acres per cow month for range,
bushels of wheat per acre for dry
crop land, tons of alfalfa hay or of
sugar beets per acre for irrigated
crop land, tons of hay per acre for
the native meadow land, acres or
fraction of an acre per COW month
for the improved pasture.
Next in the procedure, the history
of the local land sales in the area
are studied, to determine what the
local sale prices have been for those
lands judged comparable in class
and grade with the lands that are
being appraised. Judgment must
of course enter rather strongly into
the comparison, for seldom will the
lands in the comparisons be fully
comparable. The appraisers judg-
ment in this is important, very inn
portant, to the validity of the ap-
praisal.
Check Income Potential
When this sale price information
has been obtained and the compar-
isons made, that step should be
viewed as an important one in the
valuation procedure. But it should
not be regarded as affording any
final answers as to valuation re-
suits. Answers at this stage should
be viewed as preliminary, and they
should be checked in as many ways
as possible.
One way of checking the prelim-
mary valuation results for a prop
erty is to estimate its earning pos
sibilities, to see what kind of an
interest is indicated upon the pre-
liminary values. Rental income
possibilities for the property can be
used in the same way. Another
check on the preliminary values is
to make comparisons with any
available valuation standards pei
unit of land productive capacity.
Such general standards are rea
estate investment per animal uni
of ranch capacity, or per ton of ha.
yield, beet yield or other crop yield
For illustration, marginal whea
lands with an average yield of ten
bushels per acre on summer fallow
may be valued at SIS an acre, ant
from there up to the top grade o
dry-crop land, good for Is bushe1
per acre, may be valued at $50 pc
acre or more.

states that most farmers who
have secured approvals of assis-
lance for carrying our soil con-
servation practices have not re-
ported performances on these

ers who have carried out an ap-

under the 1853 program report
such practice not later than Janu-
airy IS, 1854; otherwise the assis-
lance cannot be granted.

Cotton
With the reduction in cotton
acreage for 1854 every farmer
should plan to substitute some
other cash crops in order to meet
farm expenses. With more land
being diverted to other crops such
as corn, hay and soybeans, more
food for home use and an ex-
ira brood sow or two on the farm
would help utilize your extra
corn. More and better grade hay
will keep the cost of your live
stock to a minimum.
Make plans to produce every
thing as economically as possible.
For the highest cotton yields in
1854 select the best land for your
cotton, fertilize properly and use
insecticides. With a complete cot
ton program your yield should be
higher.
Use your next best land for
corn. Fertilize properly and plant

BEHIND
HOME PLATE
BY H. S. DOUGLAS

The downtown office of Rufus Ed
wards, general manager of the Ha-
gerstown Baseball Club, formerly
at l4O West Washington Street, is
now located in Room lis, The Ma
thias Building, Public Square.
The phone number is AIT.
The release on Tuesday afternoon
that Andy Bush had been sold, on
a straight cash basis, to the Lincoln,
Nebraska Baseball Club of the Class
A Western League, is just another
proof that sportswriters know how
to respect a confidence.
All of us have known for some
time that the sale of Andy was in
the making, but we were requested
not to mention it until the Nebraska
Club sent out an official release,
which arrived on Tuesday.
While on the subject of the sale of
players, don't be a bit surprised if
Rufus Edwards, general manager of
the Hagerstown Braves, announces
shortly of another sale also, on a
strictly cash basis, of member OF
the Braves 1882 squad.
Rufus also announced on Tuesday
that working agreement has been
officially signed by the Jacksonville
Baseball Club of the Glass A South
Atlantic League and the Hagerstown
Club.
For the past two years Hagers-
towns official working agreement
has been with Hartford of the East
ern League, but when the Boston
Braves front Office pulled out OF
Hartford and entered the South At
lantic League, they designated their
Jacksonville Club to make the of
fetal working agreement with Ha-
gerstown for 1853
After winning seven straight
games, st. Mary'S High School Gael
cites had to settle for 1899 tie with
the lassies of St. Johns School in
Frederick on Tuesday night, as the
basketball regulations prohibit the
girls teams from playing overtime
periods. The game was played on
the Frederick schools court.
The Gaelettes led all the way till
the last minute of play, when ST
Johns scored the two points that
tied it up.
The Gaels, however, in their game
took the measure of st. Johns boys
team by a score of 43 to 35.
