H. B. MeFarland, of Huntington Val

, "The following are the 16 best play

Francis Ouimet of the Woodland
: national amateur championship of J914, who 'Is rated as the
leading simon-pure golf player In this country. Ouimet was
given the same honor last year. i .
O R EGO N C AD D I
OoLf players in "the state of Oregon
paid between $18,000 and $20,000 to,
caddies during 1914. according to est!-'
mates obtained from the various clubs.
The Waverly Country club, which
has the largest membership, employed
close to 125 caddies on. Saturday and
Sundays of the summer months, ana
enriched the club carriers close to the
sum of $11,000. About & caddies were
employed by the WaverlY club on the
week days of the summer months.
It is estimated that the Tualatin
Country club paid out close to $800 to
young player having arisen Xrom trie
horizon with enough , force ' to cause
any great anxiety among the present
top-notchers. n other words, the men
that won important tournaments this
year were seasoned and experienced
players.
Zt Is Bard Job.
"I have found it a very difficult task
to rate the 16 best players in th-: coun
try based on this swapon s playing. It
Is not quite so difficult to rate the
first three, which is a foregone con
clusion. The three in my mind are
Francis Ouimet, "Chick" Evans , and
Jerome D. Travors,- and that is Just the
order in which I place them, Oulmet' s
record for the past 12 months or more
Is known the golfing world over, and
he no doubt is entitled to the honor po
sition. "Chick" Evans, who for some
years has been pronounced our most
finished player and, as a matter of
fact, I think he still is should follow
closely at Ouimet's heels. He . has
done better : than Travers this year.
Jerome Travers has done very little
tournament playing since his return
from Europe.
"Tho task from now on Is realry very
difficult, for there are so many excel
lent golfers in the country; but I will
try to bo as fair as possible, and this
selection is only on this year's play
ing. I mean there are 'players I can
think of who are- not rated among the
best 16, but only because thejf did not
appear in tournaments this season.
The man t have rated fourth is W. C.
Fownes Jr., and I think there are not
a few in the country who agree with
me. Here is my selection for the So
called All-American golf teanv

GOLF NOTES
Mention has been made in this col
umn of the fact that women golfers,
for natural reasons, should bo stronger
in the snort game than In other de
partments of golf, but are not. Due
consideration of the subject brings out
the fact that it is in the restrained
shots that men, as well, as women, are
weakest. This is more true of putting
than it is of approaching. j
The only question is practice, and
one could .do no better than to follow
the method used by Walter J. Travis.
As every one knows. Travis is a mar
velous putter, and in practice he uses
a hole about half the regulation size.
In play the actual cup looks to be the
size of a bucket, compared with the
one he had been using, and Travis is
forever holding sizeable putts, gener
ally : to the consternation of his op
ponent, ' Golfing circles will be surprised to
learn of the sudden resignation of
John J. McDermott ex-United States
open gold champion for several years,
and for the last couple of years the
professional at 'the local links of the
Ath'f'tlc City Country club.
I M
'
(Mass.) Golf club, winner of the
ES GET $20,000
of money paid td tha caddies of the
Portland Golf club is not very much,
owing to the fact that there are but a
doses boys woo report for duty.
A dispatch from tho east showed
that Cincinnati, sOhio, with its eight
golf clubs, paid SS6.0S6 to caddies dur
ing the season, Portland's showing in
this respect is qjuite remarkable, be
cause it has but three clubs, one of
whi.ch was organised this year, and be
cause golf is. a comparatively new
game in this city.
McDermott, while playing in good
form the last year, has not been very
active at the local club most of the
elub making and Instructing having
been done by assistants, and it Is well
known about the local gotfdom that
McDermott has fallen off in his play
during the last few months, due, it is
mengut, to worriment. amends say
Moiiermott win quit the game ror a
while uutil bo has had an opportunity
to rest and improve his physical con
dition.
That golf is one of the most nerve-
testing, if not
absolutely the most
nerve-testing of
all athletic pastimes
is generally admitted." says a well
known golfer. "This is. perhaps, in a
measure due to the fact -that it la a
game in the playing ef which there la
no room for what might be termed
physical enthusiasm. On the other
hand, the Individual has to. maintain
cool, calm, and collected control of his
actions, and with the first sign of that
lack of this , necessary control the
machinery becomes out of gear. Thero
may be those who. when playing the
Ramp, are devoid "of nervous sensa
tions, but we can never remember
having met such: a fortunate 'individual.-

Settlement.1
In direct contrast to other years, the
United States Golf association" has re
ceived but few applications: for the next
amateur championship. As a rule half
a dozen or more clubs apply r for '.the
meeting, and the committee in charge
of that end of the business, has little
trouble in deciding between them. The
championship next year will be held in
the middle west, and the' clubs most
favored are the Oakmont Country club,
r lttsDurg, and tne uetrpit : country
club. '
ina open cnampionsnip is aue 'o I
neaa m me east next year, ana in sat
likelihood one of the clubs in the met
ropolitan district will be the scene
of this important event. The women's
national championship will be held in
the west, and Philadelphia will be the
scene of the women's eastern cham
pionship and the Griscom cup matches.
It is quite likely that the Lesley cup
matches will be played In Philadelphia
as well.
Along this line It would be a good
Idea for the United States Golf asso
ciation to follow the plan of our Brit
ish cousins. The scene of a British
championship is known several years
in advance of the meeting, so there is
no hurry and bustle at the last minute
to get the courses in shape, or course,
on the other side the championship )
could be held in the soutlj of England
one year and in the north of Scot
land the, next year, and to us, used to
magnificent distances, they would not
be very far apart. First-hand infor-
nation about the courses in different
narts of this country is bard for the
nominating committee to get, but a
start could be made along that line,
and in a few-weeks we could have a
. championship rota and courses could
he placed on it only after careful ex-
amination. not only n regara to ine
class of the course, but its aecessibii -
itv and ability to. accommodate the
host of golfers ho enter national
championships must also be considered,
Women Strongest in
Their Long Shots
One WOUid Imagine, and naturally
enough, that women golfers as a gen-
eral rule would bo strongest in their
short game. Aa a matter? of fact, the
reverse Is nearer to the truth.
The fair golfer generally gets away
from the tee in very good shape, not
a rreat length but invariably trUo.
Through the green, too. their play is
consistently good, but as: soon as the
gTeen is reached thero comes a ten
dency to lapse- i
There are, of course, some few ex
ceptions to this. Mrs. Barlow usually
crowns rood work up to the green with
fine putting, seldom if S ever, using
more than the regulation wo putts to
the green. Then, too, there are a few
local players who, while not any great
shakos from, tha tee and j, through tho
green, approach and putt with deadly
accuracy. But wun tne average goiter
of the fair sex there is inclined to be a
most lamentable falling f off on the
putting greens. I i
inrraws of this, a good story Is told
0t Miss Gladys Ravenscroft.' the Eng-
iisn girl who won the national cham-
pionship at Wilmington last year. Miss
Ravenscroft was noticeably off her
putting in an important event, and
her caddie began to taka the matter
.very much to heart. On the way to
the club house, after the first round.
he unburdened his pent-up feelings:
V'Miss." said tho caddie "1 ;do 'ope
you'll do better this afternoon. Tou
