(Dutch) Loefier. ex-caddy and now
greenskeeper at the Oakmont Coun-
try Club. rewon the Pennsylvania
state open golf championship. which
he held in 1920, at the Allegheny
Country Club tournament yesterday.
Loeffier's score of 1913 for the two
rounds, six under par. shattered all
records for a low score in competiti-
ton here and set new low mark
for the Pennsylvania open champion

IHlS Delng so, WHAT laurelS may we
lay upon the head of Alec Herd. the
British professional now on his way
to this country to play exhibition
matches? Herd it was. of all the
. golfing experts, who definitely and
courageously picked Walter Hagen
as the winner of the British open.
That there may be no doubt as to
this itT worth white to quote Herds
prophecy, which appeared in the Lon
don Daily Express two days before
the tournament began.

my opinion the man who by all signs
and portents should take the blue

would give me greater pleasure than

fact of the machine-like steadiness
of our formidable visitors"
Herd added that inability to putt.
which may or may not be due to
the fact that the gentle art is not
practised so assiduously as other
parts of the game in England. may
finally be the determining factor in
making the United States the domi-
mating power in golf"
No mntter what Herd does in this
country-and small doubt he will do
amazingly well, since he is splendid
exponent of the game-he will at
least have the prestige that attaches
to an outstanding seer of tie ancient
and honorable pastime.
In this connection. having thought of
the regiment of golfing experts. who,
upon the occasion of our national open
will turn scribe, why should it not be a
good plan to award a cup or something
to the player whose screeds most strik-
ingly reveal the splendor Of Milton and
the grace of Addison? In the case OF
the professionals money interest might
be applied while for those amateurs who

might go to the one who demonstrates

Or, since there seems to be no objec-

albeit he may not sell you club or a
box of golf balls-perhaps our gentle
man golfers might be willing. not to say

GATHER IN WHEAT
Farmers Of Western Canada Re-
loiCe atHarvest.
Largest Crop In the History Of the
Fertile Provinces May Be Con.
siderej Assured.

Reports Of Western Cannda's wheat
crop, which may be considered fairly
accurate, as they are made at the
end Of the season, when the crop is
fully harvested, would indicate
yield Of between 35O,OOOOOO and &c.,
100000 bushels from a total acreage
OF 21,471,O00. This is the greatest
yield In the history of the provinces
of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Al
berta. This immense yield has only
been harvested through the combined
energies of all public bodies-rail-
ways and governments. 1t required
the assistance, outside Of that locally
employed, Of upward OF 10000 men.
These were brought into the country
from the East, the West and the
South, by trainloads, and rushed for
ward at express speed, to be placed in
the different districts, under the direc-
tion Of officials who we're kept advised
daily, by wire, of the needs.
AS result of this combined effort
the largest wheat crop. in the history
of the West was successfully harvest
ed. The threshlng reports show that
almost universally, in every section
Of the country, the grain graded high.
In very few places did rain interfere
with stacking. The province of Mani
toba was the first to complete thresh-
Ing, very few fields being left at the
time Of writing.
Portions of Saskatchewan that had
two or three years reaped a crop that
largely made up for past disappoint-
ments.
In Alberta there was a strange con-
dition. In the central district, always
noted for its heavy yields, there was
considerable Of falling off. Instead
of the 80 and 30 bushel yields the
average ran from 10 to II, while in
southern portions, where drought had
affected the country for some time
past, there were exceptionally high
yields.
Reports of individual yields In diff
ferent portions of The three provinces
lead to the impression that when
returns are In there will be
found TO have been a r1uch better crop
than at present seems possible. Some |
of these returns give individual farm
ers as getting as high as 45 bushels |
others 30, and so on, while In some |
district& where in early August not |
more than or 10 bushels might be |
looked for, IS and IS bushels are re-
corded, the improvement having been
brought about by rains that worked !
narvels in the appearance of the crop.
And then, too, Instead of the head
carrying four rows, most of them car
ried six rows, and filled to the top,
which, to those who know, means at
least fifty per cent more.
The rye crop of all Western Can.
ada Is exceptionally good; the oats
good and barley fair.
The weather at the time of writing
Is threatening for a rainy spell, which
may interfere with threshing, and pro
long it somewhat.
Most of the newcomers from the
States have excellent crops. During
