Phil Carter made a Sc at Pinehurst
Yesterday. and deserves the sympathy
OF every golf enthusiast The JOY has
gone out Of his game. The fun in golf
is not TO play well, but TO play better
and Carter is coming dangerously close
to skill which will permit no further
Development
Take his most recent round. He be
gan with four on the first hole He
had a four on the second hole and the
same on the third. Then came two
more. In fact, the monotony was not
broken until he sank three on the
sixth. Another four and two threes
followed. One stroke was the limit Of
variation in the outward journey.
Such player s no better or than
the prisoner Of Chillon. he is hemmed
i'm BY his very virtues. Long grass may
wave to him and brools may bccAon. but
the par player must keep 70 a straight
path Al the end Of his round he knows
little about the cours., for he has seen
none Of the interesting places. lie has
not visited the Grand Canyon, the
Mammoth Cave, the bad lands. or any
of the jungles in which every self
respecting course abouuds.
T. would break our heart as well as
our record TO play any cighteen-hole
course i'm less than so. In fact. we
worry when he better go. The player
who is torn between the hope OF p S
and the fear Of - knows an emotion
which Philip Carter will never feel

Miilroso games last week tho huge
crowd was delighted when Arthur T..
Engcls established a now record by
running the seycnty-yard hurdle race

had ever run that distance over three
hurdles made not the slightest differ
encc Nor was the enthusiasm over
Overton's record in the one and half

the fact that there was no existing

STORY FROM THE DAYS OF OLD

There are four main divisions Of the
wheat fsmily-common wheat dwarf and
hedgehog wheat. English and Egyptian
wheat and flint wheat. The latter IL the
class under which comes durum wheat
which Is now being grown so successfully
In western Nebraska and other localities
in this country.
There Is much difference In wheat as
any member OF the Omaha Grain ex-
change can tell you. They are white, red
and amber In color they have large and
small kernels and they vary in weight
from fifty-five 20 slxty-five pounds TO a
measured bushel
When ground into flour even greater
differences are apparent. some making
larger and whittier loaves than others and
variation In color being apparent as
wei as IN taste.
Grasshopper Times In Minnesota.
There are a number OF diseases that
attack wheat and n number OF pests
made the growth of mans great staff
difficult in the early history OF Nebraska
and other states. One Of tho most remark
able OF these was a pest OF grasshoppers
In Minnesota in 1871. II was a remarkable
rest and no less remarkable In It's appar-
emily heaven-sent deliverance.
The governor OF Minnesota In that year
appointed April % as a spocla, day Of
fasting and prayer and urged the people

Tor the averting OF a plague that had de-
stroyed the crop the previous year.
The following day the sun shone over
the entire state with a most extraor-
