spasms OF anger and chagrin seem TO have be-
come prevalent among the lawn tennis players OF
this city. Over at the Crescent Athletic Club the
symptoms are acute. threatening disastrous
results. Each year. following the annual meeting
OF the United States National Lawn Tennis Asso-
citation. the malady breaks out afresh; only TINS
year II IS worse. This is all due TO the fact that
under the pretty manipulation OF the officials at

Fast Golf TO Rufe at MonfcIafr
Traverss Club Avoid Annoying Delays
Then Links Are Crowded.

The new greens committee Of the Montclair Golf
Club has drafted number of local rules under the
caption of Priority OF the Course. that may so
a long way toward removing certain annoying feat
ures that encountered from time to tme oy
every devotee Of the game. This calls 70 mind the
suggestion made by Adrian H. Larkin at the an
nual meeting of the Metropolitan Golf Association
TO have the clubs get together and. II possible
codfy their local rules.
Although the Montclair committee may have
started It's reform movement along proper lines, II
is equally possible that some OF the rulings may
prove too drastic TO become popular at all clubs
The stand taken by this committee Is absolutely
fearless It plainly states that wtlful viola
any of the 1909 local rules and regula tons
will lead to disqualification OF the player, with
a possible further penalty of suspension expul-
sion through the action of the board Of governors
The Montclair committee starts of by quoting 8
clause from the Rules Of Golf to the effect that "a
single player has standing and shall always give
way a match Of any kind" The local rule makes
It more imperative and reads, he must give
way. -
With regard to priority Of the a local rule
tvo-ban match) has precedence or right Of way
through three and four bail matches. which must
give way request"
The Rules Of Golf' say that II a match falls to
keep its place the and lose its distance more
than clear hole on the players In front II may
be passed on request being made. The Montcair
mandate is that IL must" give way request
Provision has also been made for the match
starting out with clear field ahead OF It, but
playing slowly to hold up the match following
on three successive tees. A local rule has been
framed that obstruction OF this kind must
, give way request.
With reference to & lost bail 'Etiquetts OF Golf"
reads: players looking a lost bail should
allow other matches coming up TO pass them; they
should signal TO the other players following them to

not continue their play until these players have
passed and out of reach" The local rule says:
Players signaled to go through. either account
of lost ball by of rules OF priority
must be allowed 70 pass out OF reach before the
match plays another stroke" The committee also
adds that "Out OF consideration for those follow
ing. It is the duty Of players TO play through under
the rules mentioned, rather than be held back and
hold back the entire field that Is following"
The Montclair committeeman also make II clear
that they not in accord with the disposition in
certain quarters to encourage four-ban matches to
the discontinue Of others The local rule states
that three four ball match shall start from
the first tee while two-ball match is waiting to
play. Furthermore, It says that three four
ball match shall be allowed to start Saturdays
after Il noon. Sundays holidays before Il
noon. This particular rule, however, will only be
in force from May to Election Day.
The rules OF golf stipulate that players having
hoied out should not try their puts again when
other players following them. The Montclair
lawmakers add: Nor should they npger on the
green to make up their score card or discuss the
number Of strokes taken the hole

A Very Intelligent Plant.

If the indulgent reader will pluck n
sprig OF lucern, still Towering. and es-
anime the blossom thereof, in accorG-
ance with these directions, he will dis
cover something that may greatly sur
prise him. In the first place. the WIS
dom of the lucern is manifest in its
mode of towering The blossoms are
small, violet-blue, and relatively incon-
spicuoes. They might in many IN
stances escape the attention of the oD-
servant and intelligent bee, if nature
had not taken the pains 10 fOresJau
such q result by maszing the little
flowers together into oblong racemes
at the very tips of the branches. This
enables the blossoms to
form a perfect carpet of bloom over
the surface of an entire field of the
plants. The bees have, there
fore, clear field for operations, ana
the chances for securing cross fertilI-
cation of the seeds are greatly in
creased. In common with all the Glow
ers, peas, beans and other members or
the leguminous group, the seeds of the
luceTn must be cross fertilized or they
may not mature. The device which
the lucern adopts to secure this result
is quite simple. but very interesting.
Observation of its workings has proved
a perennial source of delight to the
school children, who discovered the
curious arrangement when studying the
flower under the direction of the teach
er. The lucern, in brief. has contrivec
to adjust it's pistils, stamens and keel
into q little spring-like trap for catch
ing the bee upon her rounds from
flower to flower. The bee gets Sprlnkieo

A Scientific Curiosity.

From a scientific standpoint one chief
source of interest in alfalfa arises from
the fact that the plant belongs to the
family known as the leguminosae. Like
common red and white clovers, it has
the power, through minute living or
ganisms found in the little nodules on
the roots. 10 take free nitrogen from
the air for the purpose of building
plant tissue. Not only is the plant ex-
eeedingly high in nitrogen content. but
it receives the greater portion of that
valuable constituent from the air in
stead of from the ground. These little
organisms IN the roots are plants called
bacteria They are necessary for the
successful growing of good crops of al
