It. is true that the seeds of many of the weeds that grow in red and alsike clover are of such size that they are somewhat difficult to remove by the sieves in an ordinary fanning mill.

The return game at Mount lr‘orest was another gruelling contest and like its' mate here, took two periods of overtime to decide. On the smaller iCe surface the Durhams appeared perfectly at home. and the close score of 3-2 after 20 minutes of overtime shows ’that neither team had an appreciable advantage. The score at the end of the first paragraph was 1-1. there was no scoring in the second. and both teams bulged the twine for one- each iii the final session. There was no scoring in the first period of overtime, but Mount Forest nosed out. one. goal up when the timers announced that the second ten min- utes had elapsed. - The Durham team boasted no stars and Ithe goals earned were mostly obtained by combined effort. With the appearance of Hanever the Durham line-up was slightly changed. Kress replacing Clements on the defense. while the veteran Archie took his turn on the sub. list, Morlock replacing Rowe on the forward line.
