| Abstract/Contents: | States that "conditioning a new golf course is a complicated problem and the greenkeeper responsible for the result is shouldered with no light responsibility." Suggests that "the greenkeeper who has mastered his business is somewhat of a combination of engineer, chemist, artist, agriculturist and mechanician." Advises engaging the greenkeeper in the early stages of course construction. Concludes that knowledge of soils, temperatures, quantity of humidity, quantity of rainfall and duration of seasons "is essential to a proper understanding of the principal factors involved in [the] work of bringing a new course along to a playable condition." |
