For battles hard fought and won tricky bowls, the victors in the trophy matches of the St. Lawrence Lawn Bowling Association tournament were presented with various prizes at the greem on Queen's Uni- versity grounds at noon on Thursday. One always feels as prizes are pre- sented that the happiness of a few. days of good comradeship and con- genial sport is drawing towards an end, and as W. H. Wormwith, presi- dent of the association, called upon the winners the joyous incidents of the pleasant week were recalled to memory. In its Jong history as a sporting city, Kingston has had no more congenial players in its Hmits than the men from all parts of On- tario Who gathered for the tourna- ment. The splendid spirit that pre- vailed, despite the keeness of the 'struggles on the lawn, showed that even in the advanced years the true sporting blood still courses in man's veins, ; To the various winnets Mr. Worm- with addressed a few remarks, ex- pressing the pleasure that the tourna-: ment had afforded, and his state- ments were amplified by those who received the sokems of vietory and who thanked the local club for the very enjoyable entertainment that bad been Provided. Each trusted that in the future the generosity might be reciprocated 'in their own cites, where, they claimed, equal geniality would be found.

Toronto, July 18.--The agricultur- al expert of the Globe says: Sw Hay is a light crop in Ontario, clover being in especially short sup- ply. Corn as a whole is a long way be- hind where it should be at this sea- son, and many flelds are very dirty. The acreage of mangles is smaller than usual, - ~ All this indicates danger of a very serious feed situation for dairy men in the coming er,, Fortunately frequent rains o fiate have given a splendid start to $he second crop of clover. Every possible pound of this clover should be darefully conserved for hay. Fortungely, too, we have had better "corn weather" of late, but even with the best weather from now on corn will be a comparative tivation. Save the clover; cultivate the corn, J <7 Mrs. Daniel Row, Brockville, died on Monday.
