Lewis will transport his gener-
Gus chassis onto the Washing

tackle again Theodore (Tiny) Roebuck
even more ponderous, in the headline
match of Promoter Joe Turner's stand
out wrestling show OF the indoor season
Lewis, just as anxious to prove tc
local mat fans that his previous victory
here over Roebuck was no fluke, as
Tiny is to prove it was screwy, is fat
and 40, but the possessor Of more mat
experience than the II other pachy-
derms on the card put together. And
the former champion still has the
strength to put it to 'use.
Roebuck, who apparently had Lewis
pinned in the previous match, only tc
find Referee Cyclone Burns outside the
ing in O partial daZe following mix
I'D with the ropes, lost when Burns,
scrambling back and finding Lewis on
top, awarded the match to the Stranger
Roebuck has youth, height, weight and
strength to pit against Lewis expe-
rience, gained in $500 bouts. Lewis
claims TO hold IA decisions over Jim
Londos. who now is something like a
champion.
Thursdays card possibly packs more
color and famous names than any ever
booked here. The semi-flnal should be
a hummer, with George Hagen and
Sammy Stein clashing.
Fred Grobmeier, Washington's most
popular mailman and undefeated here.

that the element-defying gathering OF
nearly 1000 fans, chilled to the marrow

discussion of handicapping
i and handicapping systems
at golf meetings within the
past fortnight that many Of those
who attended the meetings which
have inaugurated the golf year
of 1882 still are all at sea as to
which Is the best system.
Most Of the discussions center
ing around handicaps have come
from conversation on the So
called Watson-Smith system, as
used by the Maryland State Golf
Association and applying in
tournaments of this association to
the eight member clubs of this
organization around Washington.
But this system, which is highly re-
garded by the Maryland ASSOCIATION and
also Is Endorsed by the Unite ed States
Coli Association, is at variance in sew
eral points with the Calkins system, as
recommended by the U. S. G. A., and
as specified for use by all clubs which
are members of the District Golf aAsso-
citation.
Inasmuch as the District Golf As
soc1ation covers all the clubs about
Washington and under it's constitution
they are thereby forced to use the
Watson-Smith system of the Maryland
State association they are at variance
With their own organization.
THE main points Of difference be-
L tween the two systems lie in the
method of computing the handicap
ratings of golf courses.
The Maryland State Golf Association
has arbitrarily taken two golf courses
located around Baltimore-the Five
Farms course of Baltimore Country
Club and the course of Woodholme
Country Club-and has made them
scratch layouts, based on general diff
ficulty.
Such courses as Columbia, Chevy
Chase, Burning Tree, Congressional.
Beaver Dam, Manor and others have
been rated a stroke easier than Five
Farms and Woodholme and therefore
have been given handicap rating Of
one stroke
Under the Calkins system Of handi-
Gaping all courses rate alike II their
holes are rated on length as outlined
by the directions for computing par as
set forth by the United States Golf
Association.
In other words, the men who play
at Five Farms and Woodholme are
said by the Maryland Etate Golf AS
sociation to play over more testing
courses than those men who play at
the other clubs within the association
territory, no matter what the par of
their course may be as computed on
the distance of the various holes.
Naturally there has been a good deal
of confusion regarding handicapS be-
cause of the conflict of the two sys-
TENS, and there would be much more If
more Of the Washington golfers COM
peted in the handicap Journeys of the
Maryland State Golf Association.
THE officers of the Maryland body
i put a great deal of thought and
a lot of good hard work into plot
ting their system, and they deserve a
lot Of credit for putting across a job
which at best is a thankless one.
without any wish to say which is the
better system, it seems that some way
should be found to iron out the basic
differences in handicap ratings be-
tween the systems used by the District
and the Maryland associations.
They are basically different, and If
Washington golfers, who are rated on
the Calkins system, play in the Mary
land State Association handicap tour
neys they will receive a rating quite

CROP ROTATION AND
SOIL FERTILITY ADVISED

Definite crop rotations as work
ed out by farmers Of the midwest
and eastern United States and
Europe have usually been worked
out only when they have been
forced to such program. This
often makes the programs Of re-
building of the soil an expensive
one. Some of the soils in this
county have already reached the
stage where crop rotation is es-
scntial and whore the program. of
rebuilding will be extensive, but
all Of our soils would be benefited
greatly by such a program if the
essentials of a good rotation are
included IN the program.
A good crop rotation aims first
at the maintenance of its fertil-
ity and should include leguminous
crops which will add to the nitro
gen supply as well as maintaining
the organic supply so essential to
good physical condition as well as
its fertility. Crop rotation also
makes best use of the soil in that

may often be controlled to very
great advantage during such ro-

Strawberry Varieties

While your county agent was at
the conference at Pullman the
matters Of strawberry varieties
adaptable TO our section was taken
up with DR.. Overholser, head Of
the dept. of horticulture. After
some discussion on the question
DR.. Overholser suggested that we
take the matter up with Mr.. Dar-
row with the U.S.D.A. and now To-
Gated at Corvallis, Oregon, and
who has been giving special atten-
ton to the breeding Of new varie-
ties and the selection Of varieties
adaptable to various conditions az
found here and there in the north
west.
Upon our return from the con-
ference we wrote to Mr.. Darrow
and are in receipt Of letter from
him assuring Us Of plants of some
Of the more promising varieties SO
that they could be distributed to .
few farmers and . large saough
supply to go to one cooperator
where field test would be made on
= larger scale IN eomrarisoa VII
other varieties. We assured Mr..
barrow that we would be glad to
have any varieties which he feels
would be adaptable to our condi-
lions and that these would be tried
out on typical strawberry soil for
our section to see what these var
ious varieties would do under our
conditions. Mr.. barrow is inclined
to feel that the Blakemore which
Was introduced two years ago may
be . variety which should prove
one Of the better ones for this
section. Sometime in the near fu-
ture we hope to be able to select
. location where we can have the
cooperator establish the demon
stration plot on these varieties.
