TO CUT RECORDS
Fastest Horses of West at Free
Fair.
Miss Omar and Lord Duke to
Thrill Crowds.

| Rex Kreipe, superintendent of the
speed department of the Big Free
Fair, is promising some fast races for
the lovers of speed.
1--WE have the largest list of en-
tries of any fair in the entire coun-
try" said Kreipe. 1--WE have 403 en-
tries in the harness races and the gal
lopers have not yet entered. Wiscon-
sin, with some 800 entries, thought
i they had the record. but we beat them.
Not only have we a large list of en-
tries out we have some of the fastest
horses that are campo igning IN the
west In the free for all pace Co
lumbia Fire Hal Mckinney Minnie
Chimes and Sly Walnut are all fast
horses and they are bringing other
fast ones. There are IS entries in
the free for all pace and that will be
some race, believe me. If you are look
ing for fast steppers you will find
them at the fair this year.
I'm the 2:14 trot Miss Omar
owned by G. D. Bell, of Council Grove:
lord lord d 4uk Ws.t owned po X shin5t t d
Look owned by Harry Spratt, of St
Joe, and Seminole Chief owned by
D. s. Wilcox, of Guthrie. Okla, are all
fast ones.
IT am looking for the 2:s0 trot, on
Tuesday. for the $1,000 purse, to be
one of the best races of the meet A
| Topeka horse, Yours Truly owned
by William Mespelt, can step a mile
in 2:14 and has a mark of 2:16A
looks to be one of the real good things.
| Venetian Red 'Ansinetta,' Nude
Keewiss,' will all be conte nders for the
purse.
THE 2:14 pace will bring a bunch
of horses that arc about on par There
| is Billy, the Kid Miss Lou 'Bess
Ward and 'Floretta Hawk, who will
| all give good account of themselves.
You can depend on it that Topeka
track records will be broken this year.
| The rains have put the track in fine
condition. 1t is fast as bullet. Those
who are worried about the track be-
cause of the rains don't know what
makes fast half mile. Why, that
ditch inside the track when 1t stands
full of water just he same as puts
springs under the track same as a
| dancing floor. Look out for some of
the records to go; that's all 1 have to
| say"

DROUTH HITS EMMETT.
Corn Is in Poor Condition and PIow-

Emmett, Kan, Sept. 11.-During
August the government rain gauge
here registered the lowest precipita-
ton of any of the 200 stations in Kan
sas, and as a result the corn is suf-
fering for rain, and very little plow-
ing for wheat has been done. There
were seven showers that measured
just trace, and one measurable rain
which netted SO of an inch of rain.
In most places over the state the
rainfall averaged from 8 to inches
The precipitation was so much less
here that S. D. Flora of Topeka. made
it the subject of a special letter to
Frank lima, the local observer, to as

Oswald Kirby of New York, holder
of the metropolitan amateur and New
Jersey golf championships last year,
has suggested a change in the laying
out of golf courses to make the ap-
proach harder and putting easier. He
suggests that putting greens be made
smaller.
Kirby's suggestion follows discussion
among golfers in which it was advo-
Gated that the cup be enlarged to eight
inches.
ct believe green's should be much
smaller and perfectly level" says Kirby.
IAN approach then would be exacting
and the number of three-putt greens
materially reduced. Eight-inch cups
would never have been suggested #
the putting green's had not been SO
large.
Personally. I can see no value in a
putting green so great in size and
filled with undulations to make it diff
ficuIt to get up to the hole"
Another suggestion is that two or
three putting greens be installed for
one hole. With three greens, one to
the left, another straight ahead and
another to the right. with fairly wide
fafrway in front. three varieties of ap-
proach might be provided, as each
green would be differently guarded,
depending the contour of the
ground.
