"YOU LOOKED UP TOO SOON"
Here's a Tip For the New Man on the
Golf Links.

If the golf player will direct his at
tention when making his swing upon
applying his greatest effort after his
club head reaches the ball he will find
a tremendous increase in the distance
he gets as well as much smoother
finish throughout the swing.
If the player will just try hard to
see how long he can keep his club
head against the ball he will find that
he has no inclination to look up toe
soon or to apply the power at the
wrong time.
You will hear the criticism, you
looked up too soon," more often or
the links than any other thing, and this
fault can be quickly and positively
cured if the player will make this ex-
pertinent.

SOWING CLOVER SEED.

In General Too Little Rather Than Too
Much 10 Put Into tho Ground.
Clover should invariably be sown ir
the spring and. under normal condi-
lions, comparatively early.
Broadcasting the seed and following
with harrow has been frequently ad-
vised and is successful In Minnesota
during wet seasons and on heavy soils,
but Is often unsatisfactory in dry sea-
sons and on light soils. Clover should
not be sown too deeply, and yet 1t Is
desirable to SOW 1t sufficiently deep
that 1t will neither blow out nor dry
out easily. Under most conditions eth
er using the grass seed attachment to
the drill or mixing the seed with the
grain Is to be recommended Excellent
stands of grass have been obtained by
mixing the red clover with the grain
and sowing the balance of the grass
seed mixtures broadcast. If grass seed
Is mixed with the grain and sown with
a drill the drill should not be run more
than from one to two inches deep.
The amount OF seed per acre will
vary slightly with the method of seed
ing and the purity and terminating
power of the seed. 1t is believed that
in general too little rather than too
much seed Is sown. If clover is sown
separately it should be at the rate of
from eight to ten pounds of red or
mammoth, from four to six of alsike
and from three to four of white clover.

FOOD FOR CAMPERS.
Don't Forget to Take Right Kind of
