TENNIS cRoWDINe OUT GOLF
Net Game Is Enjoying Vast New Birth
Of Popularity at Wimbledon Court
In England.

The Westminster Gazette notices
that lawn tennis, even more than golf,
is enjoying n vast new birth of popu-
larity in England.
1.-THE attendance at wimbledon each
day. the cosmopolitan character of the
entries and the enthusiasm shown for
the finer points of the game all show
the hold that tennis has obtained the
world over. England gave the game
birth. but for the time being she has
failed to produce any new body of
great players.
1.-THE English representation at VIM
bledon labors under the disabilities Of
age. and there is little sign as yet of
the new generation which waits to fill
the shoes of the elders. It is common
ly alleged that the English youth lacks
the dash which gives crispness and
force to the strokes of the Americans
and the colonials.
Probably the true reason is that
England has a dearth of hard courts
or Of grass courts on which the bound
of the ball Is true. The stroke that
takes all chances is only learned when
man can feel certain what the ball
will do when 1t has struck the surface

lished by the United States depart
ment of. agriculture in cooperation
with the Wyoming Agricultural col
lege, at Buffalo, Wyo.. the 1st of July.
1t is to be known us the United States

where the work that has been done
for the past 10 years by the depart
ment in cooperation with the Colorado
Agricultural college will be continued.
The object of the work at this station
will be to produce high-class stations
suitable for the production of utility
horses adapted to western range and
farm conditions. Stations at this sta
tion are available for use by mare
owners in the community, and from
time to time they will be sent for SER
vice to different parts of Wyoming
and Colorado. Stations developed for
the range weigh from 1900 to 1.400

MOST RUNNERS FAIL
TO TRAIN PROPERLY
Fault Is Typical of Great Many
Track Athletes.
Majority of sprinters Do Little or No
Work Outside of Days on Which
They Compete-Fail to Build
Themselves Up.

Only a few days ago the remark
was made to prominent athlete that
his trouble was that he never did any
training except when he was on the
track, and that that fault was not con-
fined to him alone, but was typical Of
a great many If not most track ath-
letes.
1.-THE trouble with most of you rum
ners of today is" said this critic. "that
you never do any training at all until
you come out to run a race. The meth
cd that seems to have won approval
of most of you calls for entering as
many races as you possibly can in the
course of the season and letting the
running you get in those races stand
as substitute for good, hard, per-
sistent training"
In many respects this criticism ap-
pears to be well founded If the per-
formances of many of the best athletes
can be taken as basis upon which
to pass Judgment. Instead of building
themselves up by a course of systemat-
ic training, middle-distance runners,
for example, enter everything from a
30O-yard sprint to two-mile race in
preparation for 600 or a 1,OOO-yard
race two months hence. They do little
training in between and once or may
be twice week they run their heads
off" at distance either too long or too
short for their special powers.
A man who has received his early
training under competent school or
college coach rarely If ever trains in
such n haphazard way. He has been
bred into the way of preparing himself
for given contest by series of ex-
ercises leading directly up to the event
in question. Just for the sake of get
ting some competition he may run a
race at distance as sort of tryout
a week before the contest toward
which he is aiming, but he never thinks
Of entering everything that comes
along satisfying himself that the run
ming he does in that way Is the kind
of training he needs.

Ways Of Selling Products.
The way In which farm forest prod
ucts are sold may have good deal to
do with the profit an owner gets from
his tract. There are four ways Of
selling: az BY scale measurement Of
rough products; (2) by the piece, for
such products as ties and poles; (3)
by the boundary, for lump sum
and (4) by lumber scale of sawed
products. GIL
Selling by the log or piece is the
simplest method. Ties, poles, piling,
etc, are always sold by the piece. The
important things to know are the diff.
ferent grades of each product and
their relative value. Fire wood. pulp
wood and excelsior wood are sold
either by the cord or rick. This, too
is comparatively simple method of
marketing. To be sure of selling prof
itably by boundary for n lump sum
the owner must make a very careful
estimate of the amount and value OF
his timber
When to Cut Timber.
In the majority of cases the best
time to cut timber is in the winter
months. Winter-cut timber seasons
slowly and evenly. and by the time the
warm weather comes is air-dried.
Products which must be peeled. how
ever. such as ties, poles, and tan bark,
should be cut In spring, when the bark
peels most easily. Veneer logs can
be cut in any season of the year, pro-
vided they are delivered without long
delay after being cut, and the ends
are painted to avoid rapid drying and
checking of the wood. Pulp wood and
tannin-extract wood may be cut and
shipped at any season of the year.

"oh, yes. That's stock phrase
among theorists who can't pay their

he could see net profit of not less
than 100000 next year. with little
fling at Saratoga, Palm Beach or Mon
terey, and that was vision enough for
him."
