Tocumwal Wins Cricket Final By Three Runs

Tocumwal secures the premier ship and the D. P. Simpson shield after a tense final against Wanghau. Wanghau needed 110 to win on Saturday but fell short, with J Burgman 66 and J Rourke 108 not out leading the visitors’ innings. Tocumwal’s Garrick took 3/23, while Burgman and Sanders contributed with ball and bat in a match that hinged on late arrivals and a disputed rule.

Dwarf Shrubs Offer Colorful Alternatives to Annuals

Garden notes from J W Robinson of Ormond Pleat Farm discuss using dwarf growing shrubs in place of annuals in shaded or heavy soil beds. Ceratos stigga Willmottae and Nierembergia Azurea provide long summer color, while Ceratostigma Griffithii adds late winter interest. Spiraea Thunberg and Agathea Coelestis offer early blossoms and evergreen or semi evergreen foliage, with azaleas and Fuchsia Sunray brightening sunny or semi shaded spots.
