GOLFERS GOING TO ENGLAND
American Players Plan Invasion of
Great Britain in 1912-Travis
Made Poor Showing.

1t begins to look now as if the in
ternational golf game might work both
ways next year. On the eve of his de-
parture, Harold H. Hilton, the British
expert, declared his intention of re-
turning to America year hence to de-
fend the United States title he won
at Apawamis; and now comes the
news that the United States will be
represented abroad.
Oswald Kirby, the Englewood cham
pion, declares that he is going over
In the spring. His father. always en-
thusiastic about the younger Kirby's
game, has offered to take Oswald
across. 1t also is stated that Fred
Herreshoff will try his luck next
year. The Easterbrook star had ex-
pected to visit Scotland last May, but
change in business interferred with
his plans. With the exception of the
memorable visit of Walter j. Travis
in 1904, when he cast dismay into the
ranks of the Britons by lifting" the
cup at Sandwich, the efforts of Amer
lean golfers abroad have been decided
failures.
Great things were expected of Je-
rome Travers when he went over a
few years ago, but his sorry showing
is still remembered by all close follow.

GUYANA RANGE BOOMING.
Exploratory Work Heavy for the Sea-
son-Stock PiIing In Order.

Brainerd-The Armour No. 1 and
the Armour No. mines have installed
skips and will be able to hoist more
ore. The Armour No. mine will com
mence stock piling within three
months.
The Ogelby-Norton company OF
Cleveland has taken ninety-day op
ton on lands west of Ironton and has
four drills at work. The company has
operated in the district at Crystal
Falls and at Menominee. It's district
manager in charge of the Guyana ex.
ploration and development work is l..
E. Miller.
The work on the Cuyana-Mille Laos
Iron company's shaft on section 3-46-29
is progressing rapidly. The shaft is
down to depth of about forty feet,
and although water and quicksand
have been encountered, 1t has not
interfered to any great extent with the
work. The company has installed a
large Burnham vertical sinking pump,
having pumping capacity of ESQ gal
Ions minute. The buildings, includ-
ing camps, power house, blacksmith
shop, as well as the shaft head frames,
etc., are completed.
The Cuyana-Duluth Iron company is
on it's third hole in ore on section
446-29. This property adjoins that of
the Cuyuna-Mille Laos Iron company,
and gives every promise of making an
excellent mine. The company also has
drill at work on section 10-46-29, just
quarter of a mile from the Ironton
townsite and third drill is at work on
section 16-46-29, known as the Keyes
land. This company has also acquired
other property on the Guyana iron
range, and just recently purchased $50
acres on the south range, as well as
having taken an option to drill the
Bane farm east of Brainerd.
Coupled with the fact that President
Howard Elliott of the Northern Pa
cific railway, Second Vice President
Hannaford and Third Vice President
Slade are touring the Minnesota &
International railway, comes the an
nouncement that prominent officials
and engineers of the Northern Pacific
recently made reconnaissance of the
country and towns of the north range
near Deerwood in company with
Frank Egan, the engineer supervising
construction work on the Guyana
Northern railway which is to tap the
south range and which has already
run a spur track to the section 80,
four miles south of the Deerwood. 1t
all tends to show that railway work
is soon to be commenced.

wagonload of Timothy Brings s1,os2.5

Sandstone.-A wagonload of timothy
seed from the G. H. Cooper place was
the most valuable load ever brought
to this market. The net weight of the
load was 1870 pounds and at the mar
ket price of timothy seed was worth
$1,092.50. 1t was threshed by Reese
Workman from the hay of about ten
acres. 1t passed over two scales for
the purpose of verification. All of the
land on which the timothy grew has
been seeded upwards of ten years, the
crop being cut each year and never
turned under. Part of the land was
never broken and the seed was planted
on the top of the ground. Mr.. Cooper
figures that enough seed was lost in
harvesting to reseed the ground from
which it came. Mr.. Cooper is an in
valid and is unable to leave his chair,
and his field work must of necessity be
left to others. The seed represented
only small part of the returns from
the farm.
