The sizzle, that was started when Noisy Clark and Prank Prawley, of Timmins, were appointed to handle Monday night‘s playoff game between the Sudbury Miners and the Kirkland Lake Blue Devils, and which the Devils won by a 2â€"1 score after almost nine minutes of overtime, has broken into a fullâ€"size flame. In the hands of Dunc. Sutherland, NOHA. secretary, today, is a teleâ€" gram from J. W. Gemmell, of the Minâ€" ers Hockey Club, protesting the result of the game. "Please accept this as a protest against the game played at Kirkland Lake, February 26, between Lake Shore and Sudbury Miners," the telegram reads, "on the ground that the ruling regarding overtime was in error and the game should be replayed according to the CAH.A. rules, page 44, article three." Maintain Frawley and Clarke Ordered 30 Minâ€" utes of Overtime. The rules referred to by Mr. Gemâ€" mell are as follows: If at the end of the three 20â€"minute periods the score shall be tied, ends shall be changed, the puck shall be faced at centre ice and play shall be continued for an extra period of 10 minutes. If the score is tied at the end of such period the game shall be called a Graw. Any extra period shall be considered part of the match and all unexpired penalties shall remain in force. However, in Allan Cup and Memorial Cup playdowns additional similar periâ€" ods of 10 minutes shall be played in the same way until one side shall have scored a majority of goals, with a fiveâ€" minute rest period after each 10 minâ€" utes of play. In case either club should decline to play in any of the necessary extra periods, it shall be declared a loss for that team. No match shall conâ€" tinue for more than 30 minutes (actual play) overtime. Learned of Decision Mr. Gemmell, who did not accomâ€" pany the team to the North, based his protest on information given him by Tom Starkey, who is with the team. The game was only minutes old when Starkey was on the telephone to Mr. Gemmell. What he had to say about the dscision threatened to burn out some of the connections between Kirkâ€" land Lake and Sudbury. According to Mr. Gemmell‘s underâ€" standingâ€"and certainly his understandâ€" ing is borne out by the announcement from the rink on the radio broadcast â€"30 minutes of overtime was ordered. This morning, bright and early, Mr. Gemmell was in consultation with Dr. H. C. Nash, southern group representaâ€" tive of the NOH.A. Following a study of the rules as to overtime the protest was wired to Mr. Sutherland. And there the situation rests. With the Miners and Kirkland Lake so evenly matched the hockey pot is boiling. Injection of the protest into the argument has just served to add a little of the wellâ€"known "jinneger" to the proceedings. The rules say clearly that if at the end of the regulation period the score is tied, "the end shall be changed, the puck shall be faced at centre ice and play shall be continued." Rules Not Interpreted A little analysis of what happened on Monday shows that the officials in charge failed to interpret the rules correctlyâ€"at least as the interpretaâ€" tion of the rules is accepted in the maâ€" jority of hockey centres. The rule distinctly says that only in Allan Cup and Memorial playdowns shall the overtime period exceed 10 minutes. Monday‘s game was neither Allan nor Memorial Cup. Yet the officials, with the support of Dunc. Sutherland, ordered 30 minâ€" utes of overtime. Yet, on Monday night, the two offiâ€" cials debated with N.O.HA. officials for over 10 minutes, trying to make up their minds. and then sent the teams to the dxessmg, rooms for a fiveâ€"minute rest period, an absolute contravention of the rules, as they are understood in the best hockey centres. It is on these twpo pointsâ€"30 minutes‘ overtime and the rest periodâ€"that the Miners base their claim for a replay of the game. There is no provision for period. o Attractive shapes, colourful and classic patâ€" terns. See them in our window and downâ€" stairs in The Engiish China Shop.

My pinks grow in water My roses in pebbles And both of them oughter Win first prize at the show. If your taste in terminology has a highbrow trend, you may call one of the latest phases of scientific gardening, "hydroponics." However, cinderâ€"culâ€" ture, tank farming, chemiculture or soilless agriculture will do just as well, and mean the same thing. They all deal with the art of growing plants and flowers without soil. On this recent development an article in the current bulletin of the Ontario Research Foundation has much to say of interest. Gardening ain‘t what it used to be. Time was when the garden lover hereâ€" abouts sallied forth on the 24th of May and sowed his seed. He left the restâ€" with excellent resultsâ€"to the bright sunshine and good earth of old Ontario. As for dosing those seeds with vitamins, Xâ€"rays or nutrient solutions, to produce bigger and better bloomsâ€"such theories would have sounded but a shade less fantastic than the notion of growing ‘taters without soil. Huge Crops of Potatloes Nevertheless, 2456 barrels of potatoes to the acre were produced without soil at the Califormia Agricultural Experiâ€" ment Station. This immense yield was made by waterâ€"culture, though, it is pointed out, rich peat soil has equalled the performance. On the other hand, the average crop of murphies in the field is about 100 bushels to the acre. At the same station and by the same means, between two and three hundred tons of tomatoes were cropped from a single acre in a year, as against the estimated average of five tons to the acre under ordinary field growing conâ€" ditions. California‘s opulent sunshine and favourable temperatures, no doubt, contributed to these amazing yields, beâ€" sides the unlimited water and essential nutrients artificially provided. Practical Tests Being Made of "Chemical Gardening." As we understand it the expert in hydroponics eliminates soil as a major or even an essential factor in his calâ€" culations. He looks upon soil merely as something to hold up the plant. Hence, for him, cinders, gravel, chopâ€" ped straw or shavings will do as well or better, because they do not <produce trublesome weeds. What he is primariâ€" ly interested in is the nutrient solution containing the required chemical eleâ€" ments ordinarily provided by the soil, but provided, he hopes, in better balâ€" ance and accessibility, in his solution. Ontario Fforists Try It If these chemical elements have been wisely chosen and administered in corâ€" rect dosages, rapid growth and generâ€" ous crops are said to follow.

Four largeâ€"scale fiorists in Ontario are putting the soilluss system to pracâ€" tical tests. They are growing roses and lilies, carnations, gardenias and other floral varieties in gravel, cinders and novel media of other kinds. In all four instances, it is worthy of note that the experiments are being carried on under the supervision of scientifiâ€" cally trained men. Three graduates of agricultural colleges and a member of the staff of the University of Western Ontario are on the job. mental stage and in no wise foolproof, it is a development which has created interest and stimulated much research. These tests are conducted in a most thorough manner and" on the basis of comparison. Two long tbenches are prepared, for example, in the same hothouse, where conditions of light and temperature are identical. On one bench roses are planted in good oldâ€" fashioned earth. They are watered, fertilized and cared for in the orthodox way., No Hauling of Earth But the other bench is furnished with a more or less waterproo{l tank which can be flooded at will with a nutrient solution. And the roots of the cinder or gravelâ€"packed roses theron drink deep of their synthetic diet, So they grow in beauty side by side, and which method creates the greater beauty, sturdiness and general comâ€" mercial worthiness in the fullâ€"blown plant and in the shortest time, is a matter for the experts to decide. It is generally conceded, we believe, that carnations have taken to soilless cultivation like ducks to water, and increased yields of good quality blooms have been reported. From an indeâ€" pendent source, however, we learned that in at least one competitive test where gardenias were grown on adâ€" joining benches by the old and new methods, the honours all went to the soil system for foliage and blooms alike. If further tests prove that flowers can be grown successfully on a comâ€" mercial basis by a fluid diet, the new system will have several advantages. By the elimination of soil much economy will be effected, for there will be no cecasion for the costly process of hauling specially prepared earth in and out of the greenhouses at frequent inâ€" tervals.

Periodic flooding of the tanks by automatic pumps will take care of the watering process, and weeds will not sprout from cinders, gravel or shavings.

And in this tank a variety of crops have been grown for experimental purâ€" poses, by chemiculture.
