The RURAL NEW-YORKER 
property in searching for it. No man wants 
to be small or mean about such things, and 
I we must all recognize the right of these golf 
players to take tlieir exercise as they 
like—though we tnay feel that some use¬ 
ful work would do them more good! At 
the sumo lime, when these players, or 
some of them, become a nuisance to a 
farmer or gardener it is time for him to 
end it. In some cases the golf club will 
pay n small sum for the privilege of 
coming over for these lost balls. It is 
no more than right that they should do 
so. If they will not. and still persist in 
their trespassing, our advice is to write 
the manager of the golf club just what 
you intend doing. Then put up a high 
wire fence and post “No trespass" signs 
along it. If the players persist in com¬ 
ing on the property in spite of this warn¬ 
ing. get the constable and have several 
of them arrested for trespass. This 
ought not to be necessary, but in some 
cases these well-to-do players are among 
the most lawless citizens we have, in 
their disregard of the simple rights of 
plain people. Such folks should get the 
law hard, and a good stiff dose of it.
