CRICKET AND CRICKETERS. I Bir B. BENNISON. ILLUSTRATED BY JACK DODWORTH Cricket in May is nearly always &h uncertain business, but I do not recall a time when the jrume was p(a under such extraorcftaary con- ditions as during last v, »k. On the opening da" at tho Oval there was much rain, a November,, aky,a. high, gtwty,freezing wind; Taesday. bright, glorious sunshine, b».t etiii a gusty wind {Wed- nesday, more ra>x, precious little play; Thurs- day, a time of complete idleness; Friday, a mix- ture of auKi/ner and typical March Satunl&j, 4 day of profound mourning; a day of grief, when all thoughts of sport were banished. In cricket, I as in aU phases of life, the death of King Edward wrought a mighty change. Surrey and J. N. Crawford. Many people who professed to speak with an inner knowledge prophesied much unpleasant- ness at the annual meeting of the members of the Surrey Club last weik, but the gathering was characterised by harmony and good feeling. Lord Alverston,3, the Surrey President, took the proper as well as a dignilied course when the father cf J. N. Crawford pleaded for the re- ue i.wi on of the committee's resolution that the famous cricketer should not be asked to play for the county again. No one," said Lord Alver- stone, would be more pleasod to havw 70 solution removed than mylf; but Mr. J. Crawford has not come forward with am, apo- logy, which the committee hold to 90 to them from a gentleman and a speal,.enan." And there the matter ended. Th ITS is naturally much speculation as to whetiiei" J. N. Crawford, whese quarrel with the cousin has all to tfoTsiti' discipline, will ask for forgiveness, and 2* comc back to county and English cricked Surrey could do very well with such an iccoirrl- 1 plaver. The need of such a bowler as J. N. undoubtedly is wiil surely be fsit before the sea- son is very much older. The Surrey attack, though I hear that Knox will, after all, bo able to assist, does not inspire confidence the team, as a matter of fact. has the appearance of being lopsided; it is wonderfully strong in batting; merely ordinary in bowling. Hayward in Form. Although we have seen such little cricket. I am quite sure in my own mind that the new method of deciding the championship will prove n preat success. It has certainly taken hold of the best and the genuinely sporting crickoters. It mu6t brighten up the game, for players, in I tpitê. of themselves, will take rirks which they .1C O.d Lit boui matches at the Oval last week it wae plain to see that the players were keener than they have generally been at the beginning of a new sea- Eon; and none more than Tom Hayward w¿:-s against Warwickshire. We have long said that Hayward and tall scoring were synonymous; it is hard to believe that Hayward will readily fail even after all theee years, but I rather fancy that foiks sometimes tire of his methods. They ape so severely correct, so dignified-nearly always the same. Now, if Hayward had been his old self against the Midland County, and set out in his usual elaborate way to make sure of his defence, so as to make a start in keeping with hir voDutalion, Surrey, after the loss of a day's pIa.f. wrranl ;.ot have won. It was absolutely necessary to make runs quickly, and for every- body to chance his arm. Hayward toqk in the situation at once, and he gave a most refreshing display. He scored as fast as anybody could be reasonably expected to do, and even such a go- ahead young m:an as Hayes often seemed quiet in comparison. I have always had a profound admiration for Hayward, but I have seldom watched him with so much pleasure as against Warwickshire. No man deserved to' score the first century of the season more than Hay- ward did. A Word to Warwickshire. It must be said that Warwickshire had little luck. When they went to bat they found the wicket that had been thoroughly soaked by the rain very talkative" under the influence of the bright sunshine, and there was good excuse for their batting failure. But Warwickshire if they are going to do any good at all must pull themselves out of themselves. Tho members of the team must not be so obviously afraid of per- sonal failure. There must be more go about n l. JeMOP having ful'y reewrarcd from hi* accident is now getting "his eye in. their play. I am sure that the old Cambridge J Blue, Mr. Goodwin, so long a« he is able to lead! the team, will have a beneficial influence onfl Warwickshire cricket. Goodwin is the type of man after the public heart. He can hit hard, and does hit. hard, no matter what the conditions }>e. And Goodwin is quite a useful bowleT. There is really no sound reason why Warwick- shire, assuming that they develop a spirt of ad- venture, should not have quite a good season. I hold a high opinion of their younjr amateur, Mr. Foster. There is youth and enthusiasm jn the side, and Santall and Field are bowlers of much worth. Such a bowler as Hargreave, how- ever, will be very welcome to Warwickshire.

I daresay, however, that there is a difference of opinion as to whether he is any better than Dol- phin. But a circumstance more pleasurable than the knowledge that Watson may be depended upon to fill the place of Hunter adequately and well is the fact that Drake, once a prominent ILoague footballer, haa already confirmed the good opinion he created last season, when he was given a place in the county side. I should say that Drake is one of the best all-rounders dis- covered for many seasons. He is just the type of cricketer Yorkshire needed, for even such a given a place in the county side.

> RURAIl LIFE. The Barbertox Daisy. I happened to be in London on tho day of a recent show of the Royal Horticultural Society, and gladly took the opportunity of visiting it. There were magnificent collection", of new Daffo- recent show of the Royal Horticultural Society, dils and other spring flowers to provide an hour's delightful entertainment, but. nothing pleased me better than one exhibitor'.} magnificent show of Gerberas, or Barberton or Transvaal Daisies, as they are popularly known. It is just over twenty years since they were first &,en in this country, and in that time they have been very consider- ably improved. But they arc far from being well known, and it is with the object of familiar- ising them to my readers that I have made a sketch of a bunch of the blooms. They are greenhouse plants, but in mild districts they will survive in a well protected sunny corner in the open, and no doubt very soon they will become more acclimatised to the Temperate Zones. The dainty feathery flowers, more feathery and finer than it has been possible to make them look in IOEBBEBA JAMESONI, BARBEBTOtf OH TRANSVAAL I DAI8Y. | I my sketch, range in delightful variety from orange to scarlet. The tints are beautifully soft, making the plants ideal for growth in pots. The seeds should be sown in March, but as the period of bloom ranges from June to October there need not be any hesitation abofit sowing aven now, so long as a sandy peat soil is used and a moderate temperature ie maintained.

The seeds should be sown in March, but as the period of bloom ranges from June to October there need not be any hesitation abofit sowing 3ven now, so long as a sandy peat soil is used and a moderate temperature is maintained. Water should be given freely. Gerberas are perennials, and to obtain the beet results they I should be Tepotted annually in the spring. I I shall be very much surprised if by the end of | flowering time I do not receive a letter or two |from readers mentioning their delight in the charming blossoms. 1 A Popular Pigeon.

An exceptionally largo corre- spondence has reached me asking for pictures E of this or that variety. It is impossible to please everybody at once, though, if those who have confessed themselves so eager to see a sketch in this column of a favourite breed will be patient, they probably will not be disap- pointed. But neither the picture nor the notes 'i accompanying it are intended for fanciers and experts; they are for those who are glad to have information in a general way about vari- ous forms of life, so that they can make a choice when something particularly appeals. Lovers of the Dragoon call it the Prince of Pigeons," because of its fine, erect carriage and I I A BLUE DRAGOON KGEOX. I its live manners. It is bred in many varied I etyles-blue, blue chequer, grizzle, white, silver, I yellow, red, and silver chequers. I should not | care to advocate any one more than another, 9 though I have chosen the blue as a subject for my sketch; that, I believe, is the most generally | kept of all. The silver, hovaever, is claimed to | be the most typical. Breeding the Dragoon for exhibition honours is hard work, and involves an exceptional amount of disappointment. But the fact that it is, after the Homer, the most popular of all pigeons suggests that the trouble is fully worth while. To SAVE LIFTING. Here is an ingenious idea, coming, as eo many of them do, from America. Stationary washtubs are usually provided with connections whereby the water may be easily and quickly drained off. but with fhe ordinary form of wooden movable washiubs the entire tubful of water mugt either do liitea ana carried to tne smK or otner aTain to empty it, or the water must be baled out of the tub and carried to the sink or drain by the pailful. If the house be provided with running water at the mnk, a very simple contrivance may be devised for emptying the tub. By pro- riding a simple form of ejector at the faucet and connecting one inlet of the ejector to a short! piece of hose leading to the sink, the may be very easily drawn out of the I I DEVICE FOR IHPTTTNa A WASHTUB- I tub into the sink, even although the latterfj be at a higher elevation. The accompany- ing sketch explains the devicci The ejector, | formed of a block of wood, includes two pas- s sage8 intersecting at an angle and having a common outlet as shown above in section. R One of these passages receives a stream of water under pressure from the faucet, and the escape 1 of this water from the lower end of the ejector J tends to draw water out of the tub through the hose and to deliver the latter to the sink. To refill the tub it is necessary to close the lower end of the ejector with a plug. As shown, a. short robber plug is connected to a strap tacked to one side of the block. By inserting the plug within the open lower end of the pawara and •erouutibft to* sad of thutMiUa 9= the opposite side of the -blocii, the water win cease to flow to tho tub. Flowers FOR Decoration. Everybody, whether he or she lives in town or country, loves to have flowers in the house; they lend beauty to the dullest and barest room. But how many of us realise what an art there is in choosing the most effective and economical flowers. For example, see what difference there is in the length of time which flowere will last when cut and standing in water. Somo aro over so quickly that they arc quite unsuitable as i decoration for any but wealthy people who can afford a constant succession. Unfortunately, it seems to be a broad principle that the more attractive the bloom the shorter it lasts. Whcn-j ever possible healthy-looking blooms which have; not yet matured should be chosen. If these are! gathered regularly from the garden it is a good plan to set apart a special bed or plot for raising i the plants, or in many cases room can be found in the vegetable garden for a border or two. If ;uch a plan is followed, theTe need be no fear! ibout robbing the garden of some of its charm. Of the numerous kinds especially suitable for cutting I will mention a few. The many j varieties of Poppies are invaluable, and, though ( short-lived, can always be renewed. A small bed ■' of Iceland Poppies will yield an uninwrruptoo j succession of lovely blossoms over many months. { Coreopses are very useful, pn account of their elegant habit of growth. An important point in| their culture is to sow thinly, and to thin out, to! a foot apart in their early stages, otherwise they run to flower prematurely. The miniature Sun-j flowers are as useful as they aro profuse, while' the Larkspurs give blue, white, and rose colour- ing in plenty. This also applies to the Corn-j flowers, which associate eo well with the com-1 mon field Poppy. Beautiful indeed are annual Lupins, with their great length of flowering stem. Linums and annual Chrysanthemums are among many others. Amongst tho half-haTdv| annuals, the more refined varieties of Asters! must find a place. Every section of Stock should | be represented, and the beet way to utilise them J for decorative work is to lift the plants bodily. J The Salpiglossis are wholly charming and use- ful. Both the single and double forma of Dian-j thus must be grown, and the towering Scabious) in improved varieties are indispensable. Phlox t Drummondi grandiflora continues to bloom until; stricken by frost. A bed of tho ornamental! Grasses should combine with Gypsophila elegans in rose and white, to supply the lightest of mate-S rial to associate with the flowers; and the Neme-j sias and Schizanthuses, which should be sown in? the open garden early in April, and are as light and elegant as can be desired. ii Milk Record Societies. ( Few practices have been advocated with greater enthusiasm during the last few years than that of milk records. Yet, among all that has been written and said about them, I know of no more telling sentences than those of the late Mr. John Speir in his article on the subject in the interesting Journal of the British Dairy Farmers' Association. He wrote: "The cost of housing and attending a 700 gallon cow is the same as of one yielding 600 gallons, while the profit from one of the former will be equal to two of the latter, and, at the same time, the? cost of attendance on, and food of, one cow willf bo saved. A farmer owning twenty cows, yield-? ing 800 to 1.000 gallons, would make as much? clear profit from them as if he had about 100^ yielding only 500 to 600 gallons each, while tho? expense saved in food and attendance would be enormous." Why, then, are records not much more commonly kept? There ip no great amount! of labour attached to the actual weighing or measuring of tho milk, or even in testing for butter-fat, but it has to be attended to at a time of the day when moments are precious. I agree with Mr. Speir that the only way of mak- ing the system universal is by forming co-opera- tive societies on the lines of the Danish, Dutch, and Scottish ones, which may be described as follows: Twelve or more owners of herds agree to form a small local society, one of their num- ber usually acting as secretary. A young man who has had some training in milk weighing and testing is engaged, and is provided with a chest containing a spring balance, Gerber fat- tester, measures, chemicals, and a supply of bottles. He generally arrives at each farm in the middle of the afternoon. He is provided with food and sleeping accommodation by each member when he visits his farm. Ho is generally ready to start work at the evening milking. His spring balance is hung in some position where he has all the milkers in view, and where he has space and opportunity carefully to sample each cow's milk as it is brought to him with- out encroaching on the time of the milkers. On a milker bringing forward a cow's milk he notes the animal's number. Her milk is then poured into the weighing-can, the weight recorded, and a sample of about half an ounce taken with a dipper and placed in a bottle bearing the same number as the cow, this being for the butter-fat test. In addition, it is usual to place a second sample of each cow's milk in a bucket or other vessel, and so obtain a composite sample for testing the quality of the mixed milk of the whole herd. This done, the milk is transferred to a carrying-can, after which the expert will be ready to receive an- other lot. The work is repeated at the following morning's milking, and then the expert proceeds to make his butter-fat tests, generally finishing his work and packing up by the early afternoon, in good time to prepare for the evening's milk- insr at the next farm. In this way each member of the society obtains an accurate record of all his cows throughout the year, at a minimum of trouble and expense. With the knowledge that this record gives him, the farmer gradually weeds out his herd and strengthens it until he can assure himself not only that he has no wasters," but that all his animals while in n.ilk are keeping him and not he them.
