Nearly 700 golf clubs have sought—and found—advice front St. Ives

; and the knowledge of the station is available to all who cultivate a lawn in the 2s. 6d. journal published, when occasion serves, from The St. Ives Station, Bingley, York- shire. There is good reason to expect that a number of difficulties are in a fair way of solution ; for example, the destruction of worms and the discovery of varieties of fine grasses, suggestive of the seaside, which will consent to grow on, say, clay or chalk soils. I see no reason why all who de- light in lawns should not follow the golf players and bowlers, who are the chief supporters of the research station. It is re- markable how much support has been received from overseas. * * * *
