Wild and Bishop Bow Out
In Amateur Second Round
Randolph, Bemon Tackle
Tough Opponents Today

BROOKLINE. Mass, Sept.
10 (R.-Frank B. Bostock, a
35-year-old Phoenix, Ariz.,
rancher and motor court owner.
accomplished the first big upset
of the 57th National Amateur
golf championship today when
he eliminated Stanley (Ted)
Bishop of Weston, Mass, 1916
champion, Cup, in the second
round.
Bostock, who only took up
golf a few years ago, had to
stave of a comeback by the
balding 44-year-old Bishop
after building up an early lead.
Just a few minutes earlier.
Guy Wolstenholme. slender
26-year-old English Walker
Cup player, had completed an
even greater comeback. coming
from 4-down at the eighth to
beat George Toms Of Durham,
N. c., Cup.
Advancing to tomorrow's
third round with Bostock and
Wolstenholme in early matches
were DR.. Frank (Bud) Taylor,
the Pomona. Calf. dentist and
Walker Cup player, and 81
year-old Jerry Steelsmith Of
Glendale, Calf.
The Stylish-swinging Taylor
routed Robert w. Teyro Of
Huntington, w. Va, Z and g.,
and will play Bostock in the,
third round tomorrow. Young
Steelsmith, first off the tee to-
day, sped to a 7-and-6 victory
over william Kufta of Wethers-
field, Conn.,, after shooting a "a

geles, former Public Links
champion, also turned in a
good victory, beating Jimmy

of the 1855 Amateur. and /.
The darling of the fans. how
ever, was Billy Joe Patton of
Morgantown, N. c., a late
starter today against Ward
Wettlaufer of Williamsville.
N. Y. Patton yesterday led an
advance that included all of
the American Walker Cuppers
entered.
Billy Joe drew the bulk of
the first day crowd on The
Country Club course as he
scrambled to a 4-and-2 VIC
tory over Bobby Knowles of
Aiken, S. c.. while Wettlaufer
was moving up with a bye.
1t was a typical Patton tri-
umph. Billy Joe belted shots
into the rough, over the green's
and almost everywhere. He
made some remarkable recov-
cries that left Knowles num-
bling.
Big surprise Of the day was
the failure of Joe Carr of Ire

champion, to make the grade.

When water Is applied to

until the particles near the

heavy application to moisten
any soil q foot deep.

Rain Studies Make Interesting Tale
BY JAMES BlRcHFlELD

A little book has reached me
on how to make the weather
work for me and I can agree
perfectly with the opening sem
tence: Nobody wants fair
weather all the time"
I'd say we have had our
share of fair weather this sum-
mer and even when the sky has
become overcast on rare oc-
casions, the clouds seem to have
lost their ability to release
moisture.
This little booklet tells how
you can farm better by watch
ing the weather signs, which
reminds me of the old saying
that "all signs fail in time Of
drought"
Many mornings this summer
! have seen the alto-cumulus
clouds-layers of puffy white
high in the sky-and have
thought surely that rain was
on its way. But the sky
cleared and the hot winds con-
tinued to blow. No rain and
the pastures turned brown and
the garden dried up.
We surely have had good
hay-making weather this year.
The only trouble is that there
hasn't been any hay to make.
For the last four years I have

I have never seen the pas

Of rain during the three months
last year, compared with 7.01
inches 80 far this year. But
anyone can tell you that we
are in the midst Of q drought

The reason Is the timing Of
the rainfall. This year our last
good rains came early in June
