Swiss Girls as Coli caddles.

Girls are employed as caddies on
the Aigle links, in Switzerland, and
they are said to do their work unusual
ly we'll. Many Americans have won
dered why girls are not selected for
such work by American clubs. In
Switzerland the girls are decidedly
picturesque in their native costumes.
They are considered preferable to
boys by old men, because they never
laugh when golfer makes a bad
shot or smashes a stick. This is con-
sidered a BON, for urchins on the
American links take a mischievous
delight In the wrath of a discounted
golfer. In America and England,
however, It is argued girl cannot
stand the strain of the work of a
caddy It is said girls have neither
the strength nor the sporting instinct
to make a good caddy. Said one Amer
lean golfer concerning girl caddies:
"The foreign amateur golfer, whose
chief qualification for being on the
links is his correct golfing suit, no
doubt prefers to nave girl as cad
dy because he at any rate is sure he
will not be laughed at for his clumsl-
ness, whereas he knows he cannot es-
cape the derision of healthy young ur-
chins."

casion was the first meeting of the
owners and managers of the leading
seed houses of North Dakota and
brought together the chief men of the
state who have mutual interest in
the handling of agricultural and gar
den seeds for sowing purposes.
The meeting was called by the pio-
neer scotsman of the northwest, o.
car H. Will of Bismarck, and was for
the purpose of discussing the condi-
tons of work arising under the en-
forcement of the pure seed law.
State Seed Commissioner H. L.
Bolley and Assistant C. A. Stevens
were present to explain such points as
might arise and to aid the seedmen in
getting as clear-cut an idea and I'M
Outstanding of the various features as
possible. The consensus of opinion
was that the seed laboratory at the
Agricultural college is able to do much
for the seedmen of the state. Some
also expressed the wish that an ef-

into operation to cover ground as in
