EXTENDED RACING
| SEASON LAUNCHED
Sport Across Bay Proves q
Success in Spite of the
Restrictive Law

The 40 days extension of the Emery
vile racing season began Saturday
with every prospect of success. The so
days experiment proved that the sport
could be made to go in spite of legis-
lation restricting the gambling feature.
OF course all concerned have suffered
because of the law-the Jockey club in
reduced attendance the horsemen in
smaller purses and the layers of odds
in the loss of the play of the general
public The city handbooks are reap
ing the profits of the uninformed play
ers and pikers. while the oral layers
at the track are up against the wise
game of trained horsemen and form
players. The combination has put some
of the layers out of business.
The racing itself continues above
par, class considered, the only regret
able feature being the failure of the
scheduled handicaps to fill. With the
recent arrivals of good performers
from Juarez and with others expected
there will doubtless be more accept

A Birds SAVINGS Bank,

In California the woodpecker stores
acorns away, although he never eats
them. He bores several holes, differ.
ing slightly In size, at the fall OF the
year, invariably In a pine tree. Then
he find an acorn, which he adjusts to
one Of the holes prepared for its re-
%ception.
But he does not eat the acorn. for,
as a rule, he Is not a vegetarian. His
object is storing away the acorns ex-
hibits foresight and a knowledge Of
results more akin to reason than to
instinct. The succeeding winter the
acorns remain intact, but, becoming
saturated, are predisposed to decay,
when they are attacked by maggots,
which seem to delight in this special
food.

reaps the harvest his wisdom has pro-
vided. at a time when, the ground be-
ing covered with snow. he would ex-
