THESE little matters. which run into
considerable money for the man.
ufacturers by way of changing expen-
sive machinery around to produce the
1888 lines of eight-club sets, will con-
vince any doubters that the United

when it says that top of IA clubs will
be legal for play in tournaments after
January l next year.
When the edict came out 10 months
ago some of the boys were skeptical
as to whether it would ever become eff
fective. They even went so far as to
laugh at it, limiting that the parent
golf body never would put it into ef-
feet. But it will be effective, regard
less of how it is liked.

Their wisdom is vindicated out there
at Columbia with the largest and best

it Is due to the fact that lots of the

the fact that this tourney is the last of

being the match-playing amateurs.

VETERINARIANS all over the

number of cases of skin trouble this
Summer Doubtlessly many of them
can be traced directly to the artificial
feeding methods now so prevalent.
While there is much moist eczema,
there probably are even more cases
OF a dry, scurfy sort of eczema COM
plicated by severe shedding.
This often is due to 4 diet
too free from fat or oil.
The addition of little olive oil or
other fat to the diet, and the use of
some oily skin food is often enough
to correct the condition. That does
not mean drenching the dog internally
and externally with Oil, as an excess
of oil is likely to lead to even worse
troubles. 1t is best to be guided by
