DANNY GOES VENTURING

Who nothing ventures nothing gains , " And little of success attains. i -011! Mother Nature.

This is true of everybody. it is true of allithe Green Forest and the Green Meadow folk. Those who are afraid to venture soon starve to death. Food is something that does not come to folks. They have to get it for themselves. and that means venturing and taking chanc- es.

For Danny and Nanny Meadow

WASHINGTON (AP) - Total farm income in the United States fell nearly S1.000.000.000 last year. the U. S. agriculture department said today. '

while this was happening, a de- partment report said. the income of the non-farm segment of the American economy was rising above 1954 levels.

The department said the income of the U. S. farm populatoin. from all sources. last year totalled a little more than 89.00.000.000 for an individual average of 3860. This compared with an individual aver- age of 3918 in 1954. l

The non-farm population was

said to have received total income of SZ'l5,000,000.000 last year for an individual average of s1.922- more than double the farm average. The previous year the non-farm total was S258.000.000.000 for an indivi- dual average of 51.837.

ISTABLISIIING

The correct way of establishin8 a side suit depends to a great ex- tent on the cards of that suit play- ed by the defenders. The following deal illustrates this important point.

Although the North-South bidd- ing. if it was honest. indicated the lead of the unbid spade suit, West was skeptical, and elected, instead. to lead a club. Dummy played low and declarer took E is jack.

so easily-he ducked, and south could not possibly make a winn- ing play. If he ruffed. he could get back to dummy only once more, with the club ace. and so could never establish the diamond suit; if he discarded, West would ruff the diamond jack and the con- tract would be just as hopeless. Actually, South went down two tricks.

when West, on the first diamond lead. followed suit with the nine, South should have played the ten, not the ace. from dummy. East could not afford to duck; he would win and return a spade. but now South would be in control. He would win. lead a trump to the queen. cash the diamond ace, drop- ping West's queen, and then draw trumps. Finally he would return to the club ace and run the cat- ablished diamonds.

In Short. the fall of the nine- spot was a factor of prime im-

portance and the key to the fol- lowing play.

L Canadian-Designed Pulpwoodl

.Carrier Latest In Bush Aid

: lil()N'1'REAL (CP)-A Canadian-

designed pulpwood carrier, which may soon replace the horse and tractor in bush camps, will go into commercial production shortly to meet heavy Canadian and interna- tional demand. The defence depart- ment is also reported interested.

Called the "Mark IV Logger," the carrier has passed stiff tests in speedy. economical transport of cord wood from stump to road or river over rugged bush country.

The logger is the product of years of research, backed by a 5350.000 industry outlay and carried out by the wbodlands section of the Cana- dian Pulp and Paper Association. NOW IN PRODUCTION

Five experimental machines now are in use. The Clark Equipment Company is building a plant at St. Thomas, Ont., to produce the log- ger commercially.

The association in a report on the machines dmelopment said the logger operates on four six-foot, rubber-tired wheels. all of which keep contact with the ground re- gardless of terrain. A universal joint at dead centre allows the front wheels to turn almost at right angles to the back ones.

The logger has four speeds ahead and in reverse. plus four-wheel drive. four-wheel braking action and four-wheel steering. It totes We cords of pulpwood-about 31!; tons

It can traverse deep snow, streams, mud, stumps. stones and other regional obstructions. says its designers.

The machine's "off-road" man- oeuvrahility has caused the defence department to follow developments closelyfsays the CPPA.

In the past. horses and tractor: have been used to haul cord wood. It has been loaded and unloaded manually.

The logger. 18 feet long and nine
