The lightest wood of all is that of the tallp tree, an ordinary head of thas wond weighing only four and a quarter ounces," But talip is very liable to split, while the bamboo head, overal ounces heavier, is liable to peel, so that the general trend is f favour of the persimmo.
MILLETH AND GATES,
Tho iliwyngracies of the Americar tcom are presented in their partiality to the different" makes of malletal, Harry Fayne Whitney stands out as demanding a mallet head of 101 inches in length which is an inch, mere than any other man of the defending team, thinks neces sary. The rouson is that Mrs Whitney a bis ordinary play does not depend on the wrist stroke but makes his attack on the ball with a straight swing. His mal- let is algo at least an inch longer than. those used by the other members of the team. The two. Waterburys uso mallete with beads 9 inches, the length of the stick being 52 inches. Devereux Milburn also favours a 9 inch head, but iu his. coas the length of the stick is 31 inches.
The players also are particular about the grips. In the old days a leather grip way used, but this did not meet with the gferal favour "and the substitution of rubber was found to make the hands per pira and cansed slipping. The result was a composition that embodies the best qualities of rubber and leather. Bosít Grant, an Englishman, who is well acquainted with polo conditions abroad, is looking after the equipment of the
American team.

Nothing is being left undone to obtain the best mounts for the mallet wieldas, and though the best ponios have not been drafted for the preliminary work they ara being looked after carefully by Trainer Jamas Rowe at Mr. Whitney's stud farm at Brookdale, California has sent the fastest, animals well versed in the game for the captain to choose from, and there is a feeling of confidence that the loom" will be as well mounted next June na was the victorious quartot two years ago,
