TuRPENTINE FARMERS Associ.
ALTON

AS announced in this paper several
days ago, the turpentine operators
held a meeting in this city Friday
afternoon at o'clock.
Colonel Robert F. Rogers presided.
The meeting was addressed by Col
onel A. Seasons, the president Of the
association. whose home is at Boni-
fay. 1t was also addressed by Colo
mel Boyd, of Jacksonville, who is Sec
rotary of the association.
This organization is purely a pro-
tective one, and has not been formed
for the purpose of speculation or
forming a combination in restraint OF
trade. The organization does not ex-
pect to reap dollars worth of bene-
fit, except as all the producers are
benefited. The purpose of the organi-
cation is to have all the producers TO
join it, have the association to sell
the product as it is needed, and make
a pro rata distribution of the sales
among the members, according to
the list of names submitted by an ex-
ecutive board from day to day. The
association agrees not to sell below
the cost of production. This is done
in order to save the industry and the
producers from going to wreck and
ruin.
About 20 per cent. OF the product is
shipped abroad, and So per cent. TO
the nations at war, and when the war
broke out it caught the producers
with an extraordinarily large amount
on hand, and the new crop less than
half gathered. so in order to care for
the output, without those engaged in
it going into bankruptcy. something
out of the usual had to be done,
hence the organization of the Turpen-
tine Farmers Association.
Messrs. Seasons and Boyd are go
ing over the turpentine district. hold.
ing meetings, explaining its object
and urging all the producers to be
come members of the association.
West Florida, to man, has come
into the ranks. nearly every producer
in south Georgia, and only in east
Florida do they find some hesitating
to do so.
If all will band themselves together
the industry can be saved. and those
engaged in it will at least get out OF
it the cost of production, which. ow
ing to existing conditions, will prove
a good piece of financiering and a
blessing to a large number.
The articles of agreement we're
drawn up with great care and DELHI
Grafton, and in nowise conflicts with
the letter or the spirit of the Sherman
antitrust law.
There were over forty-one operat.
ors represented at the 0cala meet
'ng. and Messrs. Seasons and Boyd
feel very much encouraged. Eighty
five per cent. of all the operators and
factors (nearly all of whom are pro
ducers) have allied themselves as
members of the organization. and the
said gentlemen are very hopeful that
as soon as they shall have completed
their itinerary the movement will be
practically unanimous.
Messrs. Seasons and Boyd go from
here to Brooksville, and will wind up
their itinerary in Jacksonville.

" HICAGO. April S.-Only the
other day I was writing some
thing about the burning of the
Atlanta Athletic Club house, and as
sit down to my desk the news comes
10 me Of the destruction by fire of the
clubhouse Of The Maydeld Country
Club, at Cleveland. Such. an acct
dent at this time Of the year Is espe-
cially unfortunate Not that it can
be said that fire that destroys a
clubhouse in the springtime is an abb
solutely unseasonab occurrence. for
spring is the beginning Of the golfers
year. Yet spring apparently brings
an epidemic of golf club fires, and
this article is a plea for the building
of tireproof Clubhouses If that is not
practicable. then proper provision for
the prevention or checking of disas-
ter should be made.
I understand that all the clubs of
the members of the Atlanta Athletic
club were burned, and ! ask any
golfer II he can imagine a much great
or misfortune than that The manu-
facturer OF golf clubs and other ac-
cessories 90 the game may profit by
this wholesale destruction. but it is
an iweparable loss to the player who
has become attached to his clubs one
man says. ~ wouldn't have taken $50
for that club. and another adds that
$500 or five years searching could
not repair my loss" Truly the de-
struction of club by fire is like the
breaking of an old friendship. tor if a
man has grown attached to his clubs
assuredly the relationship can be de-
scribed as a friendly one

Chick Evans Deplores Fires
Concrete Clubs for Golfers

guess that more than $4,000. 900 worth
of property has been destroyed by
golf club fires in the United States,
and l should not like to try to COM
pute the injury done to golfers feel
ings.
In the Chicago district alone ! recall
the burning of clubhouses at EX~
moor Skokie, Westward Ho and Chi
cago Golf | was present at the Chi
cago Golf Club fire, which came just
before the national championship was
to be played over the course 1t was
the prettiest blaze imaginable be-
cause there were no means close at
hand to check il. This is true of al
most all golf clubhouse fires. for the
average links is too far out i'm the
country for speedy service from the
fire department.
TOO much emphasis can not be
placed upon the great risks of fire
at golf clubs. OF course, nearly all
golf clubhouses are insured. although
rates in the country usually are pref
ty high, but no insurance money can
really replace the clubs Of the mem
bers.
No doubt it is much cheaper at the
time to build pretty wooden houses
than substantial flreproof ones, but IL
the cheaper course must be followed
every reasonable precaution should be
taken to avoid fire. As golf club
houses are generallw low structures,
there is usually no loss of life. and
for that we are truly thankful but
can not look upon the loss of ones
clubs as much short OF tragedy.
All of the golf clubs. however. that
have suffered the visitation of fire
have profited by their loss, and from
the ashes of Homewood, Skokie. Ex-
moor and Chicago Golf have arisen
