Croquet lawn closed for a day after top-dressing

The captain of the Toowoomba Croquet Club (Mrs. Os. Booth) has asked me to mention in my notes to-day that, owing to a looseness of the croquet lawn surface, due to the want of a good shower of rain since top-dressing, there will be no play on the Toowoomba Club lawn to-morrow. Mrs. Booth was kind enough to mention that she knew many of the croquet players read these notes.

The Toowoomba croquet lawn is looking splendid since top-dressing and fertilising, and only wants good rain to contract the surface.
