The open golf championship should be
played in the spring for more than one
reason.
At that time of year all golfers are
more keen than at any other on ac-
count OF the long winter months and
absence from the links A second rea-
son is that the courses have just been
put into first-class playing condition,
and are not exposed TO the long. hot
summer sun, which. in many instances.
puts a course out of condition as much
as the winter frosts.
Would Help Business
The third reason is that in the spring,
business in golnng circles Is lust com
menclDg, and II the championship were
held. then. the winner, If a pro" would
derive a greater pecuniary benefit than
if he won il at the close of the season.
Ali prize winners would, in fact, obtain
more lucrative pastimes according to
their worth as players. The winner and
runner-up could make a tour Of the DIFF
ferent summer courses and be able to
demand good purses for exhibition
matches.
Then again. the clubs which were
stamped with their names would be in
demand II the open championship is
held In the autumn, or the close Of the
season, it is forgotten before the sea-
son opens up again who has taken
the premier honor at golf Of the United
States and Car ada
U. S. G. A. Innovations.
There were several national changes
in golf at the annual meeting Of the
United States Golf Association, held in
New York.
After the dinner of the committee and
| officers Of the association, the meeting
was called 10 order, and afterward, on
| account Of the energetic efforts of the
chairman, Ransom H Thomas. the
shortest meeting Of the u. s. 9. A
was brought to close, after session
OF less than an hour.
| All work which pertained to legislation
was transferred from the nominating
committee TO the executive committee,
thereby relieving the chief officer, who
| Is the president.
Money for Prizes
| The association has a cash surplus of
| from $40, 90 10 $1,000. II can be seen
/ that il is In a prosperous condition, and
| that the income derived from various
| sources IS excessive. The associate club
dues were cut from 800 10 $50. so that
| the income from them will be about
/ s.. 60 and from the go and more allied
clubs there viii be over $500 This
/ does not include clubs which. may apply
for membership during the coming year
| The championship entrance fees are al
ways in the neighboThood OF 5000
Thus, the total receipts will be about
5000 The total expenses seldom, II
| ever. exceed 5000.
| 1t is proposed to have ten prizes II
the open championship ranging from
$500 for first to $50 for the lowest
| This will be an outlay OF $1,000. or th'
| grandest annual prize in the golf worlC
| ever offered. This change Was made
because the distances in this country
are so great and the travelling expenses
incurred by the pros" are In proper
| ton.

State and Northwest


will be held at jamestown Thursday
and Friday of this week. Dairymen
are expected to be present from all
parts of the state. An interesting
feature Of the convention will be the
hutter tests. Each farmer attending
the convention is requested to bring
a twenty-pound tub of butter for the
purpose of making tests. Professor
Grout of the agricultural college at
Fargo will be- present and will score
the butter. Mr.. Grout has had so
much experience in scoring butter in
Minnesota and has such reputation
for accuracy that his work will mean
{. great deal. A farmers institute
will be held in jamestown Friday and
will associate with the buttermakers'
meeting. The progress of dairying
will be noted at the convention. Dair-
'ying is rapidly becoming one of the
most important industries of the state
end. more farmers are realizing the
profits to be derived from dairying
and butter making. 1t is expected
that the convention at Jamestown will
he the largest and most enthusiastic
OF the kind ever held in the state.

She Couldn't See the Barn.

An old lady in New Hampshire de-
cided to try matrimony for the second
time in extreme old age. Her children
and grandchildren and great-grand-
children expostulated with her, but she
remained firm and declared she was
going to marry the man, says the Bos-
ton Herald.
"Why, you're too Old" said they:
you are losing your faculties You
can't see; ii this man was ON the 9TH
er side of the street you couldn't tell
him from any one else"
The old lady said she was going to
mary him. At last daughter said:
Now, We'll put the man on top of the
barn, and you shall stand in the kitch-
en- door. If you can see him on the
barn you shall marry him."
The prospective bridegroom sat on
the ridgepole of the barn, the old lady
came to the door, locked, shaded her
eyes, and looked again,
do you see him?" cried the family.
"Oh, yes" was the reply; 81 can
see the man all right, but l can't see
the barn!"
