. Alf Letourner. who has been a

bike racer for 22 of his 43 years and is still in shape for a race. is now in the role of inventor. He .eachcd Chicago in tBn days. cycl- ing from California. At Maywood Park he was doing some training and sidled up alongside of a driver on a sulky. A peculiar type of wheel on his bike interested the jockey and he asked-"Can you make me a wheel like that?" The jockey happened to be Jack Ma- honey. one of the best in his line in America, so since then Letour- has been perfecting a sulky wheel that he believes will revolutionize race driving. He says It is the first change in sulky equipment In fifty years. He has the tires and rims sent over from France and has the hub built in New York. This is where his wheel differs from all others. the hub is constructed so that the turns can be negotiated with far less friction and with greater speed. If demonstrations prove a success the French bicycl- ist will no doubt make a lot of money.

At Toronto's big harness race meeting. Thorncliife Park track, they are having some innovations which are quite startling. For ex- ample drivers will not use their own colors but will be decked out in various hues according to their starting positions. Driver in num- ber one position in all races dur- ing the meet will wear a red shirt and cap; number two is white; number three is royal blue: num- ber four is yellow; number five is brown: number six is maroon; number seven is mauve and num- ber eight is sky blue. The above will probably make the drivers more recognlable to the spectators but how will they adjust the caps and jacket: to various sized indi- viduals-that is the q,uestion? The races will operate on the schedule of every twenty minutes for the eight race daily card, with the last one set to go at 6.32 pm.

Almost every day we hear of a sale being made of u irotter or pacer but thereseems to be an ever increasing supply and as a horseman put it the other day- this Province can be rightly called the Kentucky of Canada. for there must be several hundreds of well bred youngsters munching grass this summer. The latest to change hands is the pacer Simon Budlong 2.21 by.Calumet Budlong 2.02-Vs. sold by Charles Duffy. Viliale Green. to Ed Haley. Antigonish, N. S. Simon is eligible to the 2.23 pace. Another good prospect to leave our shores is Miss Cherry Valley. live years old. that took a record last year of 2.19 and raced ,exceptionally well for the short preparation she had. She has been sold by 'Wilfred Praught. Cherry Valley. to Clayton MacLeod. West- ville, N. S. -

Another new track in member- ship with the U. ST. A. has open- ed up at St. Anthony, a village forty miles north of Moncton. Races were held last Wednesday afternoon with Calumet- Dido win- ning his class in three straight and Lee C. Brewer the final heat in the Free For All in 2.16, which was the fastest heat of the day, so Lee C. Brewer has the honor of setting up a new track record.

A wholesale influx of speed will arrive here early next week from Sydney. N.S.. where the track will be used for auto racing. The well known P. .1. Csdegan stable with trainer Worrell Lewis will have Carl Frisco 2.02'.&. Ohio Hal. Cru- sader Chief. Cobblestone. Arion- way. Steve Jane Song. Barbara S. Lee and Johnny Clegg. The Harry Hirsch stable consists of Scott Spencer. Annie Scott. Redwood Grattan. Riley's First. Fingo's Girl and Louise Protestor. The trainer and driver is Harley Harrison. The Joe MacDonald stable will bring over Cyclonic. Vella Ls Vella, Mae Harvester. Miss Bonnie Grattan, Jerry Lee Volo and Skippei-'s Pride. They will be starting in the races here next week.

The Tantramar Race Track. Sackville. N.B., was very much on the map on the 4th of July with four classes including a Free For All which marked the first appear- ance of Victory Dale 2.05 4-5. own- ed by B. C. Cruickshank. Halifax. on a Maritime track. The race was won by Seven Up Direct. that re- cently took a record of 2.11 at Truro and is said to be capable of pacing halves in 1.02 over a good dval. The best time was 2.14 1-5.

Victory Dale was 4-2-3. Judd 2-3-2. Gay Law 3-dr.

The 2.30 Trot and Pace was won by Resourceful. a three-year- old colt that Heber Sweeney bought at Hari-isburg'two years ago. Second money went to Norah Dale by Playdale, best time 2.22 1-5. "The 2.21 Trot and Pace was a straight heat victory for Johnny Clegg and driver Crulckshank; Ab- bie's Boy (Horseman) was 2-2-2; Cocoanut Kalmuck (Ridgeway) 3- 3-4: best time 2.17. Secretary D. Stuart Campbell has certainly giv- en the horse loving -people of Sackville and vicinity splendid programs and gone to a great deal of trouble to publicize.

,Our friend Cecil H. McGin1ey, Houlton, Maine, sends us summar- ies of the racing there July 4th and writes:-"Most of our horses

are at Roosevelt Raceway or Lew- iston and are doing very well.) Purses. of course, are much largeri there. Among the recent winncrsl, were Annabell Seniah. Ea rly Dawn, Congress Lad. all from Houlton. and Colonel Dan (Bob Ryan) has started six times and only been out of the money once. He has lowered his record to 2.07 3-5 and had earned up to July lat 31,362.00. The track there must be nearly as fast as most mile tracks and Bob Ryan writes me that the horsemen are treated like honored guests and no effort is spared by the management to make them and the horses comfortable.”

In the early part of these notes we mentioned where Joe MacDon- ald hsd won five dashes at Syd- ney, July 1st. Worrell Lrvvis dup- licated this feat at the last night races held over the same track. driving five winners. The horses he won with were Don Cadegan's Crusader Chief, two dashes; Wor- rell's own mare Helen K., two dashes: and he also drove June Song to victory in another dash. Next week we will have the pleas- ure of seeing Worrell in action here. also Joe MacDonald and liar- ley Harrison. two other star reins- men.

I still remember very distinctly an incident where cutworms came out second best in an encounter with a pair of robins. Twenty-live years ago I purchased a farm across the river and settled down to married life. I broke up a sec- tion of rich sod close beside the house and my wife assisted me in planting a large garden plot. We felt quite proud of the luscious growth of beans. peas. etc. until the cutworms got to work. They left very little of anything and the second planting fared little better. 0 O O

The following spring I observed that a pair of robins had built a

I could relate instances without number where crows robbed robin nests of both eggs and young. To illustrate the daring of a crow when on a nest robbing expedition Illl relate the following incident. SOME years ago a robin built a nest in the honeysuckle beside a spcrtsman's bedroom window in the heart of the city . .. . to be exact on the corner of Prince and Euston streets. He took great in- terest and delight in watching the mother bird feed her young and often placed worms within easy reach of the nest.
