Most Representative Lost
When Whisk Broom Was
Ordered Home Early
This Year.
From The Tribune Correspondent


London Dec. 5.--Considcring al tho
things that have initiated against this
being great year on the English turi
for American owners and horses. the
horses have not done so badly-in the ag-
gregate Individually. none has done any
thing to make a big noise. Mr.. Bclmonts
Tracery won $4,000 In stakes, but al
though bred in America there is not a
drop Of American blood in him.
The American thoroughbred In England
lost it's best representative when Whisk
Broom II was ordered home. Even so. had
he remained he might not have been able
to Increase largely the total amount won
by American horses in stakes and purses
nearly 10000.
For some reason hard 20 fathOm, the
policy pursued with this excellent horse
was TO eschew all of the many remunora-
tive weight-for-age stakes. In which no
surely would have given a good account
of himself-with a fair chance To beat
the best I'm England on dry. firm turf. Ito
was entered and run persistently for big
handlcaps, wherein he always was taken
care Of by the official handicappers-to II
point that was almost scandalous-and
always found himself up against two or
three very smart "sleepers' that came to
life suddenly In a manner that must have
been most discouragng 10 his trainer,
Jack Joyner
The most successful handicap horse IN
England for something more than two
years has been Long Set, owned by a
wealthy Hebrew named Joel This good
horse has been handled cleverly and has
won the famous Cambridgeshire Handi-
can the Lincolnshire Handicap, the New
bury Spring Cup Handicap, the Royal
Hunt Cup Handicap at Ascot and several
other good races. Meanwhile Whisk
Broom managed to win one race, handi-
CAP at seven furlongs and worth less than
$500.
Yet. i'm spite Of this contrast, Whisk
Broom was handicapped at higher weights
than Long Set in such a manner as to
convey the impression that the object
was to keep the American horse from
winning.
Under such circumstances the most SEN
sible course obviously was to remove
Whisk Broom to America, where he
showed what an exceptional horse he is
ON n track that suits him. He might
have been far more successful over here
if I'm the hands Of one of the highly re-
spected" English trainers, who at inter-
walls doubtless would have ''nursed him
along to win i'm his turn" as they put II
here Around New York a few years
ago they called il qualifying" At Chi
cago il used to bc running for the end

plain taking him
As evidence that the end Of the fiat
racing season has come too early for
many rainers and owners. there was an
abnormal entry OF 430 horses for the last

with Londoners and less than an hours
run from the great metropolis OF course

Thirteen hundred of the bankers of the
state of Texas met in convention at Gal
weston this week. 1t was a most import
ant meeting of representative business
men, closely in touch of all the business
interests of the state.
A notable feature of this meeting Of
financiers was the practically universal
demand for reform in the banking and
currency systems of the country. There
was the feeling that the country has far
o%utgrOwn the Anticipated systems. This
sentiment was voiced in a speech made
by b. ID. Harris Of Houston. Who said.
among other things that the country
needs an elastic currency which will per
nit of a simpler, quicker and more effica-
ciOus adjustment of banking reserves.

and the manufacturer, and which will

RAISING NEAT.

OklahOmans at the bankers convention
said things which should arrest the at
tention Of the Texas people. President
Martin of the %Stockyards National Bank
Of Oklahoma in a speech before the con
vention on the subject of cooperation
among farmers and bankers. said
III eve are cooperating in Oklahoma
in a manner never before seen in any
state. and the result is we are raising
meat for you Texas people. we are
doing it with Kaffir corn. A few
years ago Oklahoma was sending
millions out Of the state for packing
house products We brought a Few
Kansas experts into the state and
taught our farmers how to raise KAT
fir corr and build silos. we nave
demonstration trains working over
the state and it is having a fine
effect. Our bankers do not devote
SO much space to advertising resOur-
ces and liabilities. but call the at
tention of the farmer to some 1ne
corn. cotton or other seed. and invite
him to come in and get a sample.
We are constantly on the lookout for
the welfare of the farmer. and the
state is producing great wealth ana
the development of her is
most marked. We raise % per cent.

Another dominant note of the first
days proceedings. echOing throughout
practically every talk made upon the
floor, was the CRYING need for a closer

Fortuna Troubles Much Exaggerated

The troubles of the Fortuna mine, it appears, were very much exaggerated. Some of the miners who quit work or were discharge: for one reason or an other. and were given checks for their pay, could not get their checks cashed when they came to Yuma. This precipitated some talk and bad feeling. The trouble all arose from a misun- derStanding as to the time when money should be sent from San Francisco to meet the pay checks and other expense matters. Todd c. Woodworth, who with his partner, Mir. Keever, own the mine, received the money later to pay all of the checks and he paid off all of the miners and also paid them for their time while they were in Yuma waiting to get their money. Those who had discounted their checks were paid enough to cover the discount.
 MT. Woodwork says that the mine has not shut down but that on the contrary forty men are at work every day and they are dropping tell stamps on thirty dollar rock. They are saving twenty-six dollars of the content. He believes that the old Fortuna has the making of a. great mine. they have several thousand tons of rich ore un- covered. They also have an other string of ten stamps which are about ready to go into com mission. Yuma Sun.

Arizona Crops Lead.

Arozona's crops for 1913 are sixteen per cent better than the average, according to report just issued by the department of agriculture.
 This is the second year that Arizona has led all the states. Last year the Arizona crop yield was 1O8.6 per cent of the aver age.
 The average yield of a state is based on returns for a number of years. Increased acreage does not figure in this computa- tiOn. The report of the depart ment shows that Arizona farm- CTS are increasing their pro- duction, taking area of titled land into consideration, faster than the farmers of any other state. .t-
 In 1912 the crop yield of the United States was only about eighty per cent of the average and in 1913 was approximately ninety per cent. In these two bad years Arizona has forged steadily ahead.
 Minnesota comes next to Ari- zona this year, with a yield of 114.61 per cent of her average. Last year Georgia was second with 1O7.2 per cent.-Blade.

The San Xavier Mine.

The San Xavier mine is now shipping sixty tons of silver iead-copper ore every day to the EI Paso smelters. On account of the present low price of zinc no zinc ore is being shipped, but the silver-leadc copper ore which has been opened up recently is providing very profitable and promising.
 The property, in the opinion of the management, undoubtedly has a very great future. Ac- cording to recent reports a very large tonnage of new ore has been opened up. The present management, under the owner ship of the Empire Zinc com pany, is T. c. Brown, agent; Joseph Vesetti, superintendent. There are about sixty men em- plOyed at present.
 The comfort of the men is being very carefully looked after, and the children are well pro- vided with school facilities as a new school district was formed this fall and a school located there, with thirty five scholars. The ore is taken to the rail road for loading in two large auto trucks, each of which is capable of handling thirty tons | daily. Tucson Post.
