GOVERNMENT A LAVISH SPENDER
James.E. Boyle, of Cornell university, writing in Com-
merce and Finance flays:
■ 'Mn these days when all sections of the country are turn-
ing to the federal treasury for 'relief*—farm relief, drouth
relief, unemployment relief, depression relief, and soon, it
may be well to remember that when the federal govern-
ment begins to spend money it spends it both lavishly and
wastefully.
"For one simple illustration of this very serious fact,
go back to some of the expenditures made for equine
branches of the army during the world war.
"The war department never had at any one time over
800,000 horses and mules.
. f*The government bought 2,850,953 halters.
"The government bpught 1,637,199 horse brushes.
"The government bought 2,033,304 nose bags.'
"The government bought J ,.148,364 horse covers.
"The government bought 8,781,516 horseshoes.
"The government had, in all, only 86,148 cavalry horses.
For. these—
"The government bought 945,000 saddles.
MThe government bought 585,615 saddle bags.
"For the ordinance officers the government bought 712,-
510 complete sets of spur straps, or sibout 36 sets for ench
officer.
"The government ordered 41,100,152 pairs of shoes and
received deliveries, of 32,227,450 pairs for 3,513,837 men, or
about ten pairs for each man.
"The money spent by the federal government comes di-
rectly out of the taxpayer's pocket. It is not a free gift
from heaven as some seekers lor relief seem to think. The
next 'relief' we need is relief from our tax burdens."

My friend Bill Ounby of the
Tampa Dally Times — the same
Qunby who spells his name bill
gunby at the bottom of a letter,
apparently because he is in too
great a hurry to pull up the caps
—.' ^nds nit? an amazing story cf golf
ntatlstlcs.
The story is about Colcncl Horace
Rutherford, of tho Temple Teirace
club—Kid Boots' layout, it jok iap-
pen to know it.
In a general way, Colonel Ruth-
erford has been rather a cosmo-
polite of golf. He lias played many
courses hi the last 20 years. He
has kept statistics on his rounds,
which number 2,265 complete 18-
hole rounds.
"I have walked more than 10.000
miles playing golf," says the colonel,
"and I don't regret a step of it."
This, of course, is more than
amazing. It is confusing.
"Some folks." continued the col-
onel, "would walk a mile for a cig-
aret; but I'd walk a mile for a par
hole."
Four - putt greens touch!) 8.
The colonel did not have an> fnc-
uutt greens. In 700 rounds His best
wind with the putter east him only
24 nuttr ln 10 holes. This is about
a-, i'o<xl as they get. It means 12
one-putt greens and six two-putt
you might try that on your home
"°Tlic colonel's longest string of
pars was an even dozen-very line
!,lav fcr n man averaging just wi-
der 90. However, he made a par
in 19 consecutive rounds on the
fourth hole, and also on the fif-
teenth He could not seem to gft
up to 20 consecutive pars cn any
one uolc. , . ,
In 700 rounds, Colonel Rutherford
collected 3,499 i rs and 201 birdies.
Ai sueges.;«l earlier, he averaged
a par for every mile of progress.
Kid Bocts, professional at the
Temple Terrace, says these figures
and a flock more of a sinular nature
are of great value in determining
the "competitive force" of his lay-
out. That is, it is possible <o ascer-
\atn ,jfrom the |cc!oneis statistics
which holes are easiest and which
arc hardest for the average player,
since he has ail his records on each
individual hole.
The colonel has all the statistics
, of his four years and 700 rounds at
j Temple Terrace, and when I say all,
11 mean everji last statistic.
To quote a very fiw:
Highest score, Nov. 6, 1927—102;
lewest score. July 29, ■ 1927—77.
Average medal score, 89.07,
Average putts per 18 holes, 32.71.
Tliis is pretty darned good.
Total strokes for 700 rounds, 62,-
348,'
Total putts, 700 rounds, 22,897.
One - putt greens, 700 rounds,
3,454.
Two - putt greens, 700 rounds,
9,317.
Three - putt greens, 700 rounds,
263.
