In the last half Koyl, Thompson and Hopkins were put out. In the fifth nothing unusual happen- ed, but in the sixth Cinnamon scored Lindsay's only run while circling the bases for Koyl. In the seventh in- nings Clement-s, Burns and Murphy out, and in the last half were put out. In the eighth Maddock and Ed- munds were put out on a pass from third. O'Brien then made a fly which Williams secured. Williams was the first man up for the Wideawakes, and he struck out. Hopkins was put out on a pass from Cheatham and Lawson and Cinnamon was secured by Cle- ments. In the last innings Lawson was put out on first, Craig was put out at first by “Tiny” Hopkins, Cle- ments was the last Peterboro man at bat an dhe was put out by a pass from third to first. Workman was put out and Koyl was killed at first by a pass from Maddock to Lawson, and the last man up, “Nanny” Nes- bitt, was put out on first. PAGE TWO. BANKERS vs. W I DEAWAKES. The Eankers and Wideawakes met June 2 to try win a game, and most decidedly somebody won. The Bankers were the lucky ones this time, defeating “Bill" Cinnamon’s supporters by one run. In the first n-â€"- $2.54. in kaf :upyvt 09.9 v -_a innings the Bankers were first to bat and they scored five runs before their man was struck out. The Wideawakes then came to bat and scored one run. In the second innings. the Bankers scored two runs on an assist from Koyl. Six runs were then chalked up for the Wideawakes. In the third in- nings better udll was played, and the Wideawakes got down to business and scored three runs while the Bankers looked on. In the fourth innings the 'Bankers scored one run, and then the Wideavmkes made an attempt to score, but owing to “Nanny” Nesbitt’s ap- pearance at bat their chances ban- ished. The fifth innings was played amid great cheering, and the Bankers scored two goals while the Wide- awakes either fanned or were put out at first. ORIENTALS 12, C. L. S. 4. A good crowd witnessed the game last Friday between the Orientals and C.L.S. The game was fairly fast in places and was a pretty good exhibz- tion of baseball. C.L.S. were the first to bat and Cotey and Cain scored two runs for them. The Orientals were then up to do the same trick, when Hayes was put out by a fly to Prim- eau and Long and House stopped at first. In the second innings Suggitt struck out two men and one was put out on first. In the last half the C. LS. made a few errors and five runs were scored. Primeau made a run for the C.L.S. in the third. The Orien- uu â€".v_.

In the sixtn and last innings Gofton was struck out and O’Neil and Fee were put out on first. The Orientals scored three more runs in this innings. WALKING. “Jimmy” Reynolds, the famous Port Hope walker, is making at rangements for his walk from Port. Hope to Toronto and back, which he intends to accomplish in thirty-three hours, starting at 6,- am. on June 11th. This distance is: M‘nfileg'hnd he will have to walk a li ' .better than four mile an hour the time ' ' en” years ci time. Mr. Reynolds is arranging a big walk to take place in Port Hope on July lst, 2nd, 3rd and 4th, when the Port Hope Old Boys gather in the old town. At last Lindsay has a good lacrosse club organized, and it is up to the citizens of the town to see that the club does not fall down for lack of funds. In the first year of any club the expenses are generally very heavy and the club can only be kept going by help from the citizens of Lindsay who are anxious to see a good team organized that will go out and adver- tise the town. 7 L_I_‘l 0156 any cw n u- The organization meeting was held last week in the Y.M.C.A. parlors, with Mr. A. Gartland in the chair, and the following young men were made members of the club :â€"Messrs.

' It was decided that the membership fee to the club would be one dollar, and that each member would be given a stick by the club. All practices will be held after six o’clock in the evening, and games will be played any other day but Saturday. The colors will be green and blue. The business of the meeting was transacted with great rapidity, and the members of the club are very en- thusiastic. A subscription will be started in a day or two to collect funds for the club, and it is expected that $200 will be collected in this way for the club. Another meeting will be held in Friday in the Y.M.C.A parlors, at which any new members will be cor- dially welcomed. During his seven years’ wanderings Hauslian walked 31,250 miles, his av- erage per day being twelve miles. His equipment, which comprised a tent and cooking utensils, weighed 400 pounds. During his tour he wore out 104 pair of shoes and took 18,000 photographs. He traversed Europe, America, Australia and China, and got into trouble during the Russo- Japanese war, narrowly escaping be- ing shot as a spy. Hauslian’s most trying time was in Arizona, where he saw no house for six days and had no water for four. He returned in good health, but owing to the death of his wife, he receives only $5,000. The Viennese, Anton Hauslian, who in consequence of a. bet, started, on September 12th, 1900, to make a tour of the world pushing a light cart con- taining his wife and child, has re- turned to Vienna, having completed his task. Toronto Telegram: A new speed mar- vel in the motor boat line was given a try-out last night. She ran a mile in 2.30, and that means 24 miles an hour, and also means the fastest boat on the bay. The new boat was built by the Marine Construction and Power Company of this city for Mr. M. G. Bellman, of Toronto. She is 32 feet long, 4 feet 4 beam, and has a draft of less than a foot. She has a 4- cylinder 30 horse power Roberts en- gine. She is a distinct racing type, making no noise. Sporting Summary.

Fall wheat is a fair crop, but on knolls and hillsides exposed to the north and west much of the crop was killed in April. Many of the meadows are thin owing to the poor catch of seeds on account of the dry weather of last year. Fruit trees have come through the winter well. and are show- ing a good bloom. ..-.

About 9.30 on Saturday night an accident occurred in front .of Mr. Howkins’ grocery on Willem-st" which caused considerable excite- ment in the vicinity, and was the means of drawing a large crowd of curious people. out of the town, had been making a purchase in the store, and had left the groceries in the buggy. When everything was in readiness, he at- tempted to back up the horse, and the result was that the animal fell over and one side of the shafts was badly smashed. The farmer could not understand the strange be- haviour of the horse, and after in- vestigating, found that the lines had become entangled in the wheels. It is thought that as the wheels turn- ed, the horse was pulled over. TRIED TO KILL DBEYFUS. (Special to Free Press.)

To be a successful agricultural practitioner one must understand the principles and facts of the sciences related to agriculture; one must also be able to organize his farm not only with a view to present success and immediate pro- fits, but also with due regard to the future fertility of the land. The more one knows of agricultural science, the more skill deveIOped in the produc- tion of crops and the feeding of live stock, the greater will be the rewards of the executive and business man. agement. Therefore, the practical farmer should strive to systematize his methods, and should seek to put his Operations on a business basis; but he will find, when he comes to consider the question of economic production, that he must appeal to the natural sciences for information, as to the best means of handling his soils, of fertilizing, sowing, cultivat- ing and harvesting his crops, of breed- ing, rearing and feeding his live stock and of preparing his products for market. His aim should be to main- tain and, if possible, increase the fer- tility of his soil; to keep his land free from weeds, and his crops uncontam- inated with diseases; to increase the amount of his live stock and improve its quality, and at the same time to market each year a greater volume of produce at enhanced values. **#¥fi The Farmer and His Work ,fifififii FAR M DRAINAGE DEMONSTRA- TIONS. The Department of Physics at the Ontario Agricultural “College desires van-w- -v to announce the continuance of its previous offer of assistance to farm- ers in matters pertaining to drain- v-v -__ 7,, age. For the past three years we have been authorized by the Minister of Agriculture to go out and assist any farmers in taking the levels of his lands for drainage purposes, in plan- ning the most advantageous systems of drums, and in calculating the grades and sizes of tile for the differ- ent drains. A finished map bearing all the information is sent to the owner. This serves two purposes; first, it is used as a guide in com structing the drains; second, it may be preserved as a record of the ex- act location of every drain, so that is for any reason it should be neces saw in years to come to find any drain, it could be done accurately at a moment’s notice. The number of applications for as- sistance has increased very rapidly, so that last year we had many more than we could attend to. To enable us to meet this increased demand, the Minister of Agriculture has this year given us a special appropriation whereby we have been enabled to double our staff for this work. ly the neighbors in the vicinity of the farm being surveyed were interested and wished to observe the operations. This suggested the desirability of making these demonstrations public, and his will be done wherever pos- sible. Anyone interested will be wel- come on all occasions. By this means we shall be able to instruct a much larger number in matters pertaining to drainage problems. MA néw feature is being added: We have found in the past that frequepte Anyone wishing drainage surveying done, should apply to Wm. H. Day. Department of Physics, 0. A. C., Guelph. The only outlay connected with the work is the travelling ex- penses cf one man, including meals, cartage of instruments and railway fare at one cent a mile each way. The seed from red clover is matur- ed in the second growth, on account of the fertilization being done by the young bumble bees, which are not sufficiently developed for the first growth of clover, as they are all batched in the Spring; only the queen humble bees live through the winter. To get the largest yield and best quality of red clover seed the first growth should be cut for hay early in June when the first clover heads ap- pears. This is necessary in order to escape the red clover midge which has proved so disastrous to the raising of red clover in most parts of On- tario for several years. The larvae from the first brood of the midge is deposited in the clover heads imme- mediately they appear, and before the bloom shows (when the midge ‘ are numerous very little bloom ever ap- pears.) When the clover is cut at this time and cured for hay, most of the larvae is destroyed, and even if any survive, the second crop of clover will be in bloom before the second brood of midge are developed. Occa- sionally we get a good crop of red clover seed by cutting the first crop late, say, in July, so that the second crop of clover will bloom between the second and third broods of midge. But this is uncertain. and has not nearly thesameadvsantageasisgainedby destroying the midge by cutting early.
