count from the San Francisco Chronicle
OF the game between Miss Nav sutton
and Miss Hotchkiss, The Chronicle
SAYS:
Miss May Sutton, exclamation of the
world, easily defeated Miss Hazel
Hotchklss, the present national cham.
plon IN the feature match of the Por
tola tennis tournament on the courts in
Golden Gate Park yesterday. In so
doing, Miss Sutton gave a wonderful
exhibition of tennis. There was NOTHING
particularly brilliant about her plav,
but her accuracy and steadinsss proved
entirely too much for her clever on
ponent, and at no time did Miss Hotch.
kiss have chance to win even a set.
A large crowd was on hand for the
sport and the tennis was the best seen
at the park for some time. The ma
lorlty OF those present were there to
see Miss Sutton play, and they were
by no means disappointed at the game
she put up. In the first set she ran off
the first five games straight before Miss
Hotchklss managed to win a game. The
sixth game was the only one Miss
Hotchkiss won during the set.
The second set was far more inter
esting than the first Miss Sutton took
the first three games and then Miss
HOtchkiss created some little surprise
by winning three straight games. Each
player took one of the next two games,
making the score A. Then Miss SUIT
ton again took the lead at 81, and
finally won the set, Ga.
Miss Hotchkiss practically defeated
herself in this match. Her errors were
numerous, while those of Miss Sutton
were few and far between. AS a mat
ter of fact, Miss Sutton made only three
OF four errors during the course of the
match. She had her long forehand
drive working in splendid shape and
passed Miss Hotchkiss repeatedly with
it at the net.
Miss Hotchkiss assumed the net posi-
ton more or less throughout the match,
but her volleying was not as good as
she has shown in the past. She seemed
nervous and tried to place the balls too
close to the line, and the consequence
was that majority of her shots went
Just out of the court or into the net.
Miss Hotchkiss played the more bril-
liant tennis of the two, but she missed
many more of these brilliant strokes
than she made. AS a result of the
match yesterday there can be no further
doubt regarding the question of suprem-
acy between these two players. There
were some few who looked for Miss
Hotchkiss to defeat her opponent, but
she was. clearly outclassed, as she has
been in all of the matches between the
two in the past Miss Hotchkiss has
the stroke and the style to defeat Miss
Sutton, but she will never do so until
she steadies her game down materially

IN WILL
THAT SON-|N-LAW
Be GIVEN NOTHING

vice-Chancellor Howell signed a de-
cree today disposing of the $200, 900 es-
tate of the late Carrot ". Voorhees,, Of
Paterson. The will controlling the ess
tate is unusual in it's minute and care
full provisions against the direct or in
direct possibility that the testator's
son-in-law, Ernest P. Salter, might de-
rive any gain from 1t.
With that end In view Voorhees, pro-
yided that upon the death or remar-
riage of his wife, who did die one year
after he did, or upon the death of both
his daughters, who also are dead, his
estate vas to go to the children of his
daughters. He added, in a codicil, that
in any event the whole estate should
be retained by the trustee, John H.
Reynolds, until the death of Salter,
the son-in-law.
Reynolds appealed to the ~vice-chan-
cellor today to terminate his trust and
order the estate turned over to the
two grandchildren in view Of the fact
that Salter has not been heard from
in fourteen years, and the grandchil-
dren are both of age and married. He
said that there was no longer any POS
sibility of Salter's getting any benefit
from the estate.
The grandchildren are the children Of
Mrs. Ernest Salter, Charles d. Voor
hees, of New Rochelle, N. Y, and Mrs
Bessie Woodwork, of Passaic. In 1896
after the death of their mother ant
the disappearance Of their father, thu
children changed their names from
Salter to Voorhees, on an order from
the court.
The son changed from Charles Salte
to Charles VOORHEES,, and the daughtel
from Bessie Salter to Bessie voorhees,

Wherever there has been exercised
due care In selecting the proper crops
for dry farming the yields have been
most gratifying, but there have been
many instances Of failure simply from
the facts that the crops planted were
not adapted TO the methods employed
by the system. Seed for dry farming
processes NUT be grain grown In semi
arid localities, u having been proven
that seed wheat from the Mississippi
valley, where the rainfall IL heavy, has
failed to bring satisfactory results when
planted alongside Of wheat grown from
siberian seed.
The dry farming enthusiasts are most
hopeful OF bringing into productive.
ness a very large area Of the semi.arid
west, and estimate that II all the land
capable Of farming by this process but
which now lies idle Is brought into
yielding that the additional wealth pro.
duction Of the United States will have
proated more by dry farming than 1t
has by reason of the mines Of Nevada

DRY

The dry farming congress last week
In session at Billings, Mont, 1t being
the fourth annual meeting Of the or.
ganization which has for its object the
increasing of the productive area Of
the United States by methods Of farm.
ing especially suited to areas where the
rainfall under usual farming methods
is insufficient for the production Of
crops.
In addition 20 the work of educat.
ing the land owners as 10 the mecns by
which the farming area may be in.
creased the congress has as its mission
the ereeting Of closer cooperation be.
tween the government and various eK
perts and the farmers Of the arid sec.
tions TO encourage legislation toward
increased federal and state ~appropria.
tions for the establishment of more
experiment stations and to finance the
study OF farming methods all over the
world where crops are produced with
moisture.
The term dry farming has been
very generally misunderstood and has
been construed to mean that the idea
in mind with the dry farming onthu.
siast Is the production Of crops without
rainfall and yet without irrigation. Such
an assumption il absurd on ito face and
yet the descriptive dry farming has pro.
yided the way for such miseonception.
Dry farming Is merely u process Of
preparation OF the land aud cultivation
OF the crop by which every drop Of
the seant rainfall may bo conserved and
utilized for the production OF crops. In
any farming the rainfall Of a year is far
IN excess Of the amount actually needed
for crop production, and by reason OF
the runoff scarcely more than halt Of
what falls Is retained in the ground for
the production Of the crop. The dry
farming method Is to 30 store all that
tails that all may be utilized. The
rainfall tho country over, roughly esti.
mated, averages between thirty and
forty inches. Probably not over half
Of this is available for the develop.
ment Of crops, for, besides the large
amount which runs of during heavy
showers, a great deal Of it falls at times
when it is not actually needed for crop
growth. The dry farming method is
proposed for lands wbereon the rainfall
Is between Ten and twenty inches, and
II it be possible to conserve this en-.
tire amount, the possibilities Of pro.
duetiveness from arid lands are brought
close to those lands which have a nor.
