Baltimorean missed. while Ballantyne

BALLANTYNE DEFEATS JENKINS
FOR MIDDLE ATLANTIC TITLE
Wins Over Wet and Heavy Golf Course by
One Up-Lee Harlan and Woodward
Beaten In Semi-Finals.

| w c. Ballantyne of the Columbia
Country Club yesterday won the final
of the middle Atlantic championship,
played over the beautiful course of
the Baltimore Country Club, defeating
T. Courtney Jenkins of the home or
ganization in one of the most exciting
finishes ever staged in the middle At
lantic classic. The course was wet and
heavy from the rains of the two pre-
vious days. and the superior mashie
play of the local man was the factor
which brought him HIS second win in
the championship, his former victory
having been scored in 1914, when he
defeated B. Warren Corkran in the
finals. On the present occasion the man
from Columbia was two down at the
sixteenth tee, but played the last three
holes in par figures, winning them all
from the long driving Monumental
city representative.
In the semi final Bal1antyne beat L.
L. Harlan of Columbia in a match pro-
ductive of good golf on the part OF the
winner and of bad driving on the side
of the veteran Harlan They halved
the first three holes and Ballantyne
won the fifth. This lead was not held
for long, as Harlan won the eighth
after Ballantyne had sliced into
bunker. They were all square at the
turn. On the long tenth hole Harlan
sliced into the creek 100 yards from
the tee, and Ballantyne's ball hit in
the branch and bounded out on the
fairway. They came to the sixteenth
tee with Ballantyne two up. Ballantyne
skied his drive and Harlan hit a per-
feet shot to the left of the green. His
opponent topped his second, and his
third was on the green four feet from
the cup. Harlan ran up to within FIVE
feet and missed the putt. his ball ly-
ing on the lip of the tin. Ballantyne
putted and his ball hit his opponents
ball and dropped into the cup. halv-
ing the hole after missing three shots.
The next hole was halved in tours,
giving Ballantyne the match, 2-1. In
the other semi-final Donald Woodward
was three down to Jenkins at the sixth
green, but won the seventh with a
good four. They halved the eighth in
five. The ninth hole was played poor
ly by both men. Woodward approached
over on his second shot and Jenkins
ball was on the green thirty feet be-
low the cup. The latter, took three
puts and the hole was halved in five,
when Woodward failed to. get down in
two. Jenkins won the fifteenth hole

HOUSE PLANTS AND
THEIR CARE
Season for POtted Flowers and Shrubs
Is Here--Care Should BE Taken
In Their Handling.

Don't fuss with and handle plants
too much. Like human beings they
do not want to be nagged too much,'
advises Horace f. Major, of the Col
lege of Agriculture, of the University
OF Missouri. There are four essential
things, he says, sun light, air, soil,
and water.
Sun light is necessary to produce
proper chemical reactions in the soil.
Air Is needed for breathing for plants
Ike humans breathe. Plants absorb
carbon dioxide gas helping to purify
the air in the home. They should ~
watered with judgment and washed
oil. Blooming plants should be repot-
ted three times a year, ferns every
three years. Do not crowd them into
small pots. Yellow leaves mean too
drouth.
