Holland Entry Appears Best OF Bunch
in Initial Race at Ascot
Today
BY Irving 3. Clement

Six selling races comprise the card
today, but at that there will be good
sport, as in all of the events the fields
are evenly matched.
The first race, for two-year-olds at
five furlongs, should go to Bribery.
She has a world of easy speed and
should be out in the front all the way.
Chancellor Walworth ran a crack
ing good race in his last start and II
he is in running mood today he Will
be very hard horse to beat.
Rubicon ran a bangup fourth on
Tuesday, after being given poor ride,
and as this was his first effort here,
he should improve and be right there
at the finish.
races and has a royal good chance.
Crescent Boy and Hector have out
side chances to win.
The Huguenot looks best in the Sec
ond race, but he will have no cinch
to beat Kinsman. The latter is i'm
proving and if he runs one Of his good
races he will give The Huguenot a
hard race.
Red Light made his debut on Tues
day, but was interfered with, but for
which he would have made a better
bears watching. Huapala might come
to life.
Money Muss is the class in the third
race and will have Revolt and Peggy
O'Neal to beat.
Revolt should beat out Peggy for
the place, as the latter is inclined to
quit Tramotor will be dangerous
factor all the way
The Gadhy. Blissful and Bavarian
in the fourth race should about finish
in the order named.
The Gadfly looks best, as he has
beaten practically the same horses be-
fore.
Blissful had a short rest, which will
freshen her up Bit and she might
run an improved race.
Bavarian will set the pace and should
last to show. Cabin ran some fair
races around New York and might
be a surprise party.
Potrero is inconsistent and q bad
betting proposition. as he sulks at
times.
Lacene, Heartful, Wee Lass and
Valencia look good in the fifth race.
Lacene ran well yesterday and If she
runs true today will probably win.
Heartful will be the runner up and
might beat Lacene. Wee Lass ran
some good races on the Canadian cir
cult and has shown some clever form
in these parts. Startling and Valencia
have outside chances.
The sixth race looks like a toss-up
between st. Winifrede, Susie Christian
and Oudon and it would not be sur
prlsing to see them finish in this or
der.
Gondolus has been working well and

ORGANIZATION
Quarters Of Old Athletic Club on
Spring Street VIII Be Fitted
Up In Modern
Style

Directors were chosen yesterday for
the new athletic club which is being

ment as can be secured. Those in
charge Of affairs intend to erect their

opening of the club will occur by the
middle of March. A complete gymna-
slum will be fitted up on the third floor
and card and lounging rooms are to
find place In the building.
No stock is on sale at the present
time. Mr.. Eyton is in possession of
900 with which to carry on the work
and the funds which are available be-
yond this amount are practically un-
limited After the success of the un-
dertaking is assured members may buy
stock.
The new club will be operated on a
strictly business plan and nothing bor-
dering upon impropriety will be toler-
ated. Drinking and gambling are to be
absent features and the club Will be
so conducted that young people may
visit the quarters with a surety that
they will encounter nothing objection
able.
Mr.. Eyton, who has been prominent

cessfully endeavored to place the va
rious sports with which he has been

The Dairyins Industry.
Dairying in Clatsop county is in it's
infancy, and very few dairymen realize
the natural advantages OF this coun.
try. The climate, coupled with the pro-
ductiveness of the oil, makes it an ideal
district for production OF butter ami
cheese; dairymen are taking more in
terest in the breed and care of stock.
With the genuine butter COW. such
as few here have as yet. much better
results may be obtained, though even
now the luxurient pasturage enabies
the cows to furnish an abundance Of
rich milk, with more than an average
OF butter fat. A modern equipped
creamery is in operation in Astoria,
furnishing the farmers ready sale
for their cream, at an average price for
the year of 22h cents per pound for
butter fat; and the cows yield, under
good care, about 225 pounds OF butter
fat per year. There is general inter.
est in increasing the dairy business;
many Of the dairymen are preparing to
|enlarge their herds, and new daries are
being started. Ever growing grass
and the best market in the world MAXI
this an inviting field for those who
understand the care Of cows.
All the Oregon coast country, espe-
|cially that near the mouth of the Co.
lumbia river, is very similar to the
great dairying sections of Europe, such
as Denmark. Holland and the Channel
islands. The winters, however, are
milder and the summers dryer.
The lands best adapted to grass.
growing are the tidelands, which are
river bottoms adjoining the Colum.
bia or its branches. and overflowed by
the highest tides. These lands may be
reclaimed by diking. at an expense of
about $40 per acre. BY diking large
tracts by machinery-with steam
dredges-the expense may be reduced.
and more substantial dikes erected. One
acre Of tideland has been shown to be
ample for keeping one COW the entire
year. There are still in Clatsop county
about 10000 acres of tideland to be
dlked. much of 1t being easily cleared
after the diking is done. This Is no
experiment. as many Of the best dair5
farms have been made on diked tide
land.
