Each match was scheduled for 36 holes, which necessitated the playing of IS holes in both the morning and afternoon. Jones and Jacoby led as the result of the mornings play and consequently started their match in the afternoon with neat lead. Jones led Wheelock 7 up, while Jacoby had Davis 2 up.
 Some excellent golf resulted from both matches in the morning, but play in the afternoon was not so well. Young wheelock, a lad about the same age and size as Jones' played an excellent game and gave the Atlanta star trouble during the early part of the match. Jones, however, struck his stride as the match progressed and soon established good lead. As the match continued. Jones bettered his lead and at the conclusion of the IS holes had an advantage of seven holes.
 JACOBY GETS LEAD
 Jacoby and Davis played about the sdIIl6 lOI LILO tudJOlAly O1 tie AAoSSI AAA the morning. The New Orleans star gained the lead on several occasions, but Davis always managed to even the match on the next hole. It was the lat ter part of the match before Jacoby took the lead which he never was deprived of. He won the sixteenth with par four after he had won the fifteenth with five. Davis again showed a. flash of su- xvh hA fha fnanfh in par three
 With an opportunity to even the morn ing's play, the lone Birmingham player in the semifinals lost the eighteenth hole to the Crescent City representative which put the local player two down at the start of the afternoons play.
 Although Jones had a safe lead at the start of the afternoons play, he never did allow his youthful opponent from the Crescent City to get within strik- ing distance. The young star from the Cracker capitol was playing a brilliant game, while Wheelock failed to show the form which caused Jones worry in the early rounds of the mornings play.
 JONES WINS MATCH
 On the eleventh hole of the afternoons play. Wheelock missed a seemingly easy putt and Jones won the hole which gave him an advantage of eight holes with only seven to play.
 The work of young Jones was up to his standard in many respects. His drives were long and in the majority of the cases accurate. His butts were also good and his steadiness was great aid to him. Wheelock showed excellent form in the early rounds of the match and at enc time had the lead on the young Atlantan.
 Wheelock's drives were fine. but his putting was of a more sensational va riety. He won several holes with a long putt.
 WHEELOCK WAS NERVOUS
 The large gallery which followed the match seemed to annoy the young star from the Crescent City and nervousness did much to cost him a half or a win on several holes Jones was as steady

JONES A FAVORITE

There is much speculation as to the winner of the title match today. Young Jones' as the result of his string of vic tories is the favorite, but Jacoby has a large following. Both have wide ex- perience as golfers and no odds are added to either player on the nervousness of his opponent.
 Jones has not been playing a very con sistent brand of golf during the tourney, possibly, experts say because of several easy opponents he has played. In every match in which he had strong opposition, however, he has showed form sufficient for him to secure victory and it would not be surprising to see the youngster walk off with the honors today.
 Jacoby, however is capable of giving young Jones a good fight. He worked his way into the finals by defeating some of the best players at the tourney and his play yesterday gave every indication that he was in rare form

as a clock at an times and played very consistent game.
 Jones, it was also noticed, plays a much berter game when his opponent is setting the pace. On several occasions yesterday when he fell behind he braced on the next hole and would jump back into the lead. It indicated that he will be hard man for Jacoby to beat today
 The match between Davis and Jacoby attracted the greater interest in the aft ernoon. Davis started under a handicap and never grew dangerous, as the Cres- cent City player was in superb form and easily set the pace. Davis showed flashes of his excellent form, but he lacked the consistency which he had been showing in previous matches, especially those of Thursday.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-06-09
DRIVES WERE GOOD

His drives were long but his downfall came as the result of his failure to make numerous easy butts. Jacoby gradually increased his lead in the afternoon until he stood up at the eleventh hole. On the twelfth hole Ja- coby had perfect drive on the green while Davis was in a bunker. He was on the green in two while Jacoby's putt for the hole was short. Davis was only a few feet from the hole. He missed his putt, however, and Jacoby won the hole and the match
 Jacoby played a swell game His butts were fine, while his drives were also well above the average. He plays a very con- sistent game and usually sets the pace for his opponent

THE SOY BEAN WILL
SERVE MANY PURPOSES
May BE Grown For Money Crop, For
age, and Soil Improver-Will
Follow Oat Crop.

The soy bean is very valuable
utilized as money crop" where the
seed are harvested and sold to the
oil mills. It thus contributes to the
food supply. Twenty bushels Of seed
per acre Is a reasonably good yield,
and at the present price this yield
would bring a fair profit when the low
cost at which the crop may be grown
fs considered.
Probably the greatest value Of the
soy bean, on the whole however, is as
q forage crop. When grown for this
purpose It should be planted thick in
the row and cut for hay. It makes a
feed almost equal in value % alfalfa
hay. The harvesting period IS usual
ly the latter part OF August or the
first OF September, when fair wealth
er usually prevails. Difficulty is fre-
quently experienced in obtaining good
seed for planting. and a poor stand OF
eoy beans is common 10 guard
against this, the germinative quality
of the seed should be tested before
planting and the planting should be
done with care. Failure will result il
the land for soy beans is poorly pre-
pared The land should be we'll plow-
ed and pulverized, and the seed plant
ed not more than one inch TO one and
one-haf inches deep. The planting
may be done UP to the middle Of July,
and on this account it is one OF the
best crops to follow the oat crop. On
poor land the rows should be from
two to two ard one-half feet wide, and
on fertile soil from three to three and
one-half feet. Planting should be done
with a corn or pea planter and about
one-half bushel Of seed used per acre
II properly planted no hoeing should
be required by this crop and it Will
need only twoAor three cultivations.-
