WINE MASH IN COMPOUNDS.
It's Use by Rectifiers Forbidden by
Revenue COMMISSIONS.

Rectifiers are prohibited from making
wine mash and using it for the pro-
duction of compound liquors. in an Or
der issued today by the acting commits
sioner of internal revenue. The order
becomes effective September 1. The prac-
tice of rectifiers making wine mash
and using it for the stated purpose
of producing homemade wines has been
in existence several years. A growing
industry has been the result and under
it there have been many frauds. Officers
o the internal revenue service have found
that distilled spirits have been put on
the market without the payment of the
internal revenue tax. In the future wine
mash will have to be used on distilery
premises.

AMERICAN EVEN IN HIS GOLF
NOTED CRITIC SIZES UP PRESI-
DENTS PLAYING.
Says His Strokes Are the Natural
Ones and Plays Are Shorn
of All Frills.

HAMILTON, Mass, Angus, 11.-After
watching President Taft's second assault
yesterday upon the deep golf trenches and
gh ramparts of the Myopa Hunt Club
whose links are acknowledged to be the
standard in this country. Ra pn Cracknell
one of the leading golf critics in the coun-
try. says today that even in his golf the
President can be nothing except Ameri-
can. His strokes are the ones that the
national game makes second nature to all
golfers who have played base ball.
To expect the President to come through
with his stroke and finish win his club
high in the air, his wrists taut is to for
get that Scotland's bonnie swing cannot
be grated onto an anatomy which was
nodded by the short swing of the base
bail bat.
President Taft's real game is base ball.
Style is dignity and dignity is style, and
President Taft never does the things on
the links that make many look ridicu-
louS.
What He Has Mastered.
One thing it is quite apparent he has
mastered: This is, to keep the head still
when making a shot President Taft
stands very straight as he makes the
shots.
His club does not go back so very far.
but he goes right through he ball, and
if he cared anyth ng about frills he could
finish in the approved style. But having
gone through the ball he closes the dis
cussion and gives no final pose.
On the putting greens aga the Presi-
dent takes an cree attitude. He puts
extremely we'll II S grip of the club is
firm with the right hand. Apparently he
never slices-certainly he did not yester-
day-and his straight play is varied only
occasionally by a bit of a pul-a sound
faul if fault can be called sound.
Pres dent Taft never gets tired. He
was round the Myopia links in less than
an hour and a half. That's good going.
The President can keep his place ON any
green in the world, however expert the
golfers. that can be banked upon. He
moves forward at rapid, sw'nging gait.
and seems to enjoy every sep of the
way.
