Characteristics of the Scooter Which Is Home Alike in War
It's FrOeen Surface.

Now that water freezes and winds blow cold
the scooter has made its appearance again
along the coasts On the Long Island shore
-'scooters' are coming out into the open by
dozens and scores. And should there be ice or
clear water or should the ice foes barTicade the
shore with one row after another Of mtrench-
ments, the scooter" is to be seen flying over
them or skimming on before the wind with the
speed Of q railroad train.
The scooter" is at home on water or ice. II
is not a bird or a beast, but boat. 1t is built
with q bottom and a deck which are duplicates
of each other and no matter whether It oe on
water ice or snow, the scooter travels ahead

blow fierce or mild. the scooter takes adVan-

The sport Of "sCooting," as 1t IS called was
born on Long Island, and, although the "scoot-
or, NAV be found elsewhere. along shores to
which the winter brings half frozen water ana

that ..scooters' are TO be seen in the greatest

sailboat and sled. The deck was made fiat and
broad. and the fiat bottom bore runners armed
with steel. At the present time the scooter
builders have worked on the problem ear
nestly that they almost all agree on its lines
and dimensions.
a scooter Of the most modern type is four
teen feet long. and its greatest width is four
feet. Its cockpit is 81 feet long and feet 3
inches wide The depth from the deck TO the hull
is Il OF II inches. and the ridge around the
cockpit to prevent the water rushing over the
deck and wetting the 'scoOtist'' in the pit is ;
inches high Both the deck and the hull are OF
turtle back fashion The runners are 10 feet
long. 20 inches apart and l inch in width They
extend down "a inches from the surface of the
bottom and are sheathed with brass. The bow
spirit extends about feet beyond the bull. A
mast 8 feet high and inches thick is big
enough 10 carry a sufficient area of canvas for
the stim winter winds.
As told by H. b. Fullerton. in Country Life
in America" "scooting" has now evolved from
the winter ferry boat of the lifesaver to the rae
ing craft of the sportsman. "Scooting" last sea-
son became such q fad the Long Island
shores that its chief enthusiasts last February
held a scooter" race. 1t the first Of its
kind in the world. There we're seven contest
ants, and the winner proved that 'scOotng,
like every other means OF lOCOmCtiOn, depends
not alone Oh the horse but also on the
Jockey" "SCooting' over ice is far faster than
over water. and the "scootist' who uses the most
judgment in selecting his course On ice or water
is the victor. on ice one can go thirty miles an
hour Mr. Fullerton has made some admirable
pictures of "scooters." three of which accom-
pany this article.
There is little doubt that "scooting" will be-
come one of the popular winter sports in the
Northern States. Wherever water surfaces
freeze over partially. the ice at seasons of the
year crumbIes treacherously. the scooter" may
sail where the ice yacht dare not venture. On
the Hudson River it is becoming no uncommon
occurrence for scooter TO go to the rescue o.
an ice yachting party whose skeleton craft has
cut through the ice into slushy water. Even in

nourishing qualities Of the grass
where ever the cool breezes and
heavy dews of the greatest of lakes
can reach it. Three tons per acre is
an average crop Of baylor Bayfield,
county farm and it can be cut several
years in succession from the same
field with no fertilizati ton. The most
arrant kicker, the pessimist who can
see no good in any country, are
forced to admit that for grass
region this is unsurpassed. Glover
grows spontaneously. Wherever
a seed may drop plant is sure to
spring up and farmers say that a
failure to get catch is almost un-
known. It has almost become an
axiom with farmers that where
clover will grow it is possible to
make an excellent farm. If this is
the case there is surely glorious
prospect for this land. Through the
woods, where lumber camps have
been, along the old tote roads and
logging grades, where ever horses or
cattle have been, clover and timothy
grow abundantly. Even in the
woods, in the shade, clover is found
making the wild land excellent
pasture.
Other forage plants such as vetch,
peas, rape, millet and alfalfa can all
be grown successfully, and give the
dairy farmer or stock raiser
splendid variety suitable to all kinds
of soil, and to stastes of stock.
