Book Review Man and his Earth, George D. Scar-

seth, Iowa State University Press, Ames, Iotva. Price $4.50.

This book came to me by courtesy of William Lyons, Canal Fulton, Ohio, au-tographed by Mrs. Scarseth. As one reads easily through the 199 pages, one is im-pressed with the sincerity of this great agricultural leader who was far ahead of his time. He taught by simple illustra-tion and, when it seemed that everyone was against him and his progesssive ideas, by buying land and doing the "impossi-ble" that he knew would work.

George Scarseth was widely traveled. He relates incidents from the tropics to the Arctic to nail down the facts of soils, climate and people. The story of the three pebbles was inspired by Dr. Hof-fer who was one to encourage the writing of the book. For down-to-earth explana-tions of organic matter, soils, nitrogen and soil fertility every golf course su-perintendent would be well advised to have this book in his library. The book was completed just prior to Dr. Scar-seth's death March 20, 1962.

The reader will find only a few tables and charts but a wealth of inspired anec-dotes and illustrations that lead one to a better understanding of the earth on w h i c h w e l ive. — FRED V . GRAU

There 's a bagful of stroke-saving angles built into the Golden Ram. For example, irons have "Sole-Suppor t" —an extra-wide flange that puts head-weight at the very bot tom of the blade to let you get under and through the ball smoothly (a Golden R a m 5-iron looks similar to the 9 in your bag). This flange has a contour roll front-to-back and side-to-side—less metal to meet turf for cleaner shots, smaller divots. Golden R a m woods are sole-contoured like the irons for improved fairway play; double cycolac face inserts eliminate exposed screws, give solid smack at impact. XPD-100 shafts

are fully flexed with 14 steps on the driver. Golden Rams are custom-made to meet your exacting speci-fications. But, if your customer has an average build, Golden R a m in s tandard shaft length is available from stock in your choice of two swingweights—all the playing features at substantially less cost.
