What promises to be one Of the best
attractions of Christmas day is the
card now being arranged by Secretary
Delorney of the Los Angeles Driving
club. The program, which will be fea-
tured by several novel events, also
will include high-class trotting and
pacing races. Profiting by the last
two matinees. the handicappers will
be able to class the horses so that
nearly every event will result in
fairly close finish. The improvement
Of the last matinee over that Of
Thanksgiving day was noticeable, and
Starter Delorey predicts that the
horses will finish almost as closely to-
gether as they are sent away.
A novel spectacle is promised by the
Out West club, and several feature
events will be given by this organiz3-
ton. The Out West club, now boast
ing an enrolment of nearly 400 men,

Elephants in the drills and races will
be mounted on horseback, and some
of the finest hOrsehesh in the south

give an imitation of the pony eX-
press and will carry the saddlebags
around the Agricultural park oval just
as it was done before the railroads
had ever crossed the Rockies
Relay Race
The members will be divided into
teams for a relay race, the team fin

exhibition of five gated saddle horses
will be another feature which will

GOLF ASSOCIATION
TO EXTEND SCOPE
WILL VOTE ON AMENDMENTS
AT COMING MEETING
Proposal Is to Change Name from
Western to American, and In
ciude Clubs in Many
Countries

CHICAGO, Dec. 1S.-The following
amendments to the cons ututiou OF the
Western olf association VIII lie voted
upon at the coming annual meeting 10
be held here on January 10. Each clab
a member of the association, is enti-
tied to east two votes, either mailed
ballot, proxy, or by delegates:
"Re il resolved. chat article / Of the
constitution OF this association be and
is hereby amended as follows:
by striking out the word Western
and Inserting in lieu thereof the word
American, so that said article l shall
read:
'This association snail be called
the American Golf associations and
further,
BE it resolved. that section l, ar
ticle 8. OF the constitution of this asso-
citation. be and it is hereby amended
as follows:
by striking out the whole of said
section and substituting therefor the
following:
Any properly organized club on
the continents Of North and South
America. and islands pertaining there
to. maintaining or controlling golJ
course, shall be eligible to membership
in this association
The Minikahda club of Minneapolis
and the Detroit Golf club have applied
for the western amateur championship
Appeals to Golfers
George II. Bryant, member Of the
Glen View club of Chicago in. the cur
rent number OF the Golfers Magazine
makes a strong appeal to all the clubs
in the Western Golf association to east
their votes in favor of the proposed
amendment. He states. in part as
follows:
1T is the American spirit when
problems arise to solve them. Golfers
Tor years have been trying to solve the
problem of r. national golf association
Ultimately ii will be done and in a
manner to ft the whole country. not
Just q small portion of IT. The prob.
lem apparently cannot be solved
through the United States Golf asso-
citation. as II turns deaf ear to all
attempts to change it into q represen-
tative body. Why. then, not make the
attempt through the w. g. a" in
which every club has an equality OF
votes, and which has established n
reputation for progressive methods?
"There are many i'm various se tons
Of the country who contend That the
Z. S. G. A., as at present constituted.
is not a national association and
should not be termed such, That its
method and form of government is
fundamentally wrong That its actual
membership is comprised Of only forty
five clubs. as in politics it is only the
voters that count and the non-Voting
clubs. 230 in number, having no voice
I'm legislation and elections should not
be counted as members of the L. s.
G. A., they being dsfranchised.
"a vote IN favor of the proposed
amendment means the ultimate forma-
tion of a representative national asso-
citation. A vote against the amend
ment means what we now have, the
L. S. G.. A.--an un-American anomaly

Most farm homes are very poorly
lighted. A kerosene lamp is dirty
smells bad and does not give very
much light. A gasoline lamp is much
better. Best Of all is the acetylene gas
system. After this is once installed ii
can be operated cheaply and will fur
nish an abundant supply Of light
The water system IS another thing in
which farmhouses are behind those in
the city. There is scarcely q house in
a town of any size but that is provid-
ed with water and sewage systems. In
the country these are the exception
rather than the rule, yet they can be
put in at small cost,
An air tight tank in the cellar is
sometimes used to supply the pressure
for a farm water system, but is rather
expensive. The water can also be
drawn from the elevated tank at the
barn, If one Is used there, the only dis
advantage in this case being that els
tern water cannot be used. On the
whole, the most satisfactory plan is to
have small galvanized tank in the
attic. A little covering in the coolest
weather will keep 1t from freezing, and
a few minutes work with the cistern
pump each day will keep 1t filed.
BY having a heater attached to the
furnace or to the kitchen stove and
making the proper connections hot and
cold water can be supplied to the bath
room, the wash room and anywhere
else that it is wanted.
The laundry room downstairs is the
place where the convenience Of such
system will be appreciated most
In this room the washing machine,
tubs. wringer and other utensils can
be kept An opening In the floor con-
nected with the tile drain Will carry
off the waste water, and hot and cold
water from upstairs will be ALWAYS
on tap. Such a room, together with
the entire water system. can be fitted
up for less than 500.
Another convenience that can be in
stalled at small cost is sewerage sys-
tenn. This can be connected with the
bathtub and sink, and with small
additional expense another luxury that
is seldom found on the farm, an in
door closet. can be added. Drain.

too large, however, or the work Of
moving will be likely to be neglected.
A lawn Is not hard to make. A little
work leveling and preparing a fine
seed bed and liberal application Of
blue grass seed that will grow will
almost certainly result in a good la WI.
Do not make the common mistake OF
planting trees too close to the house.
They detract from the appearance and
make the house close and stuffy. The
opposite extreme should be avoided
also. A few trees about the edges of
the lawn furnish grateful shade and
provide a fanking for the picture Of
which the house Is the central figure.
The decorative value Of shrubs is Of
ten not appreciated as much as it
should be. A climbing rosebush over
the porch or few dwarf varieties in
out Of the way corners will add to the
color and beauty Of the yard. There
are many other Towering shrubs, such
as snowballs, syringias and lilacs, that
can be used to fill in empty spaces and
corners.
A row or two Of hard naples or elms
along the driveway, with a thick ever
green windbreak to the north, will fin
lsh the supply Of necessary trees I'M
less there are corners or bare spaces
about the yards that will be better for
tree or two.

UHE farmer is more important

" HE farmer Is more important
81 than his farm. and the most
IL important crop he raises is
not corn nor hogs, but boys
and girls. The success Of farmer is
not measured so much by the money
he makes as it is by the happiness he
brings to himself and to his family.
One Of the surest ways of accomplish
ing this end is by making the home
surroundings attractive.
There is no place on earth where i;
is easier to have an attractive home
than on the farm. Yet in spite Of
this too many farm homes are located
in the middle Of weed patch that
goes by the name Of garden or are
hidden behind such a thick jungle OF
trees that it is impossible to see in OF
out.
The first thing to consider is the
house itself. 1t should be situated on
the highest part Of the hill on which
the farm buildings stand. A house
need not be expensive to be homeilke
and convenient Indeed, the most ex-
pensive houses are often the least
hoHelike
The starting point Is the cellar
With but little additional expense this
can be made the full size of the
house. In this case the foundation
walls should extend to the bottom Of
