~ Theamount of labor required for the crop itselfwas about b working days, with team lH days. The sesbania used as green manur- ing on the west half of the potato ground was given l7 irrigationS. Bermuda grass more- over, fiourished beneath the sesbania to such an extent as subsequently, to require B days labor for cleaning up the .45 5acres so fertilized Although the larger part of the crop came from the Sesbania fertiliZed portion of the po- t1toes, this method of enriching the soil proved very costly, 2 days mans time and 3 days teamwork being required to put the seS- bania under and afterwards get rid of the Bermuda grass. Nevertheless, the labor en- tailed could easily have been managed by a careful farmer, as the Bermuda digging was done in January when other work was not urgent.

but they certainly are an evenly
matched lot. Rip Rap should have
won the last two-mile race if he had
not been interfered with. At that he
was beaten only two lengths by Big
Bow and Mamie Algol. Livius finished
like a bolt of creased lightning in his
last race, and although he has never
gone the route he runs as though he
likes it.
The sixth race brings out a mixed lot,
the best of which will probably fight
it out at the finish. Alma Boy is the
unlucky horse at the track, as he fin
ished second a number of times. Stony
Lees last race was a grand effort, as
he was away badly. Badly Used ran
yesterday and will probably be

but Bat Nelson's idea of it almost sent
in a hurry call for the coroner yester-
day. Perhaps it is only a fondness for
the fire department that causes the
Battler to sport a flaming red shirt

II 1t is. these danger signals are all to

According to his usual custom. Bat
attired himself in the big noises be-
fore he left the lakewood for his road

Henry Kelly into donning a similar
uniform. Kiddo Dalton, too wise for
such display, bundled himself into
the old gray sweater and said nothing.
The morning air was fine, and the
trio rambled on up the lower road clear
around Monrovia. on the way back
Bat decided that he had enough of it,
and in order to reach the hotel more

to cut across a field.

were all in bunch when Kelly hap

Bat also cast a languishing glance

but Nelson refused to answer. The
Kiddo took a look for himself, and
then turned on full steam. Right be-
hind him were two docile looking bulls
with the docile all gone.
The bulls kept right on, and Dalton
tore off at an angle. Strange to say,
neither of the bovines took any notice
of him, but went after Bat and Kelly,
who also turned on the high speed and
reached the fence just in time to escape
goring.
And then Dalton showed his game
ness. Without taking the trouble to
call them pet names, he rushed up to

club. They didn't even make move
to hook the Sphaghetti cham a return
swat, but went on their way as though
nothing like fight had ever occurred to

Dalton was unable to even jog the
rest of the way home, for he was too
busy laughing at Bat and Kelly. "Da

MURPHY WINS FROM
SCALER IN PRELLM
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
DREAMLAND RINK, SAN FRAN
CISCO, Jan. 31.--Johnny Murphy was
given the decision over Kid Scaler in
ten-round preliminary to the Attell-
Neil fight tonight at Dreamland rink.
This contest, which was announced for
the lightweight championship of the
Pacific coast, equaled the interest
taken in the main event.
1t was a hard, grueling contest
throughout. Murphy, who was the
heavier by four pounds, was the ag-
gressor all the way and landed the most
forceful and telling blows Near the
end of the seventh round, which was ali
in Murphy's favor, Scaler landed a
righNvery low. Murphy claimed a foul
and the bout was stopped for five min
utes while doctors examined the pro-
testing pugilist. The claim finally was
disallowed and the men were ordered
TO continue.
Murphy had all the better of the two
concluding rounds and clearly earned
the decision. ScaIer was the favorite
IN the betting at 10 to Z. Murphy, being
over weight, was compelled to relin-
quish his forfeit.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. s1.-Abe At

Guy such an unmerciful beating that
the latters seconds, fearing serious in
jury, entered the ring and threw up
the sponge in token of defeat.
me hight throughout was most spec
lacular. Attell started out early In the
ilght 10 give his opponent systematic
peatlng In the first six rounds Neil
scarcely landed a blow on his clever
and ni1nble adversary, while on the
other hand Attell peppered Neil's face
with lef and right jolts and uppercuts
that almost smothered the local fighter
and caused his face to puff out consid-
erably.
In the seventh round Neil, by a lucky
punch, opened deep cash over the
Hebrew right eye, from which the
blood flowed in a stream. This nettled
Attell, and, throwing discretion to the
winds, he mixed it, only to be worsted
at this style of fighting.
Neil electrified the crowd in this and
the succeeding round by bringing the
fight to AttelI and forcing him all
around the ring Neil landed several
wicked left hooks to the jaw in the
eighth round, and after that Attell
iouSnt very Waflly.
The ninth round was of the whirl-
wind oder, both men administering
considerable punishment.
In the eleventh, however, Attell again
took command of the situation, and
from that time on Neil scarcely landed
| a punch. Attell fioored his man with a.
right to the chin In this round, and in
the twelfth, after giving him a most
severe pummeling, sent Neil sprawling
to the floor for the count of six. Neil
was groggv when he arose, and this
was the beginning of the end.
There had been two minutes fought
IN the thirteenth round when Spider
Kelly stepped into the ring and said
to the referee:
This fight ought to stop. Neil is
hurt. He complains of his head spin
ming and ought not to go on"
AS soon as the referee declared At
tell the winner, the elder Neil rushed
wildly around the ring, claiming the
whole proceeding an outrage; that IL
was plain that Neil could have contin-
ued fighting.
1t. was palpable, however, to those
present that Neil would have been
| knocked out in short order had the
bout been allowed to continue. He was
groggy and apparently all at sea.
After the fight Neil said: II was not

| punches in order to deliver one. He
/ had none the best of me. and I believe
would have settled him sooner or

MOTORING

The race between the Haynes and
the Packard roadsters that was sched :
uled to come off at Santa Monica yes
terday morning did not take place.
The machines tried out the course,
but as the Haynes came back TO line
up at the start the gear on the mag,
neto stripped, leaving only smaii
percentage of the teeth on the wheei'
and as part of the teeth on the cam
shaft gear stripped at the same time
the Haynes was put out of commits
sion and was towed back.
Six or seven cars went down with
parties to see the sprint and the
course and weather were ideal for the
contest. AS Mr.. Stimson is to snip
his car today to Seattle there is no
chance for the race to be pulled off
this winter. The roads between this
city and Venice are in miserable con-
dition so the proposed race between
the Haynes and the Stearns will prob
ably be postponed for some time, until
the road can be fixed up.
This afternoon and evening the Max
we'll branch will receive in the new
quarters. The garage and salesroom
have been put in shape for the occa-
sion and extensive preparations have
been made for the entertainment of
the many guests that are expected to
attend.
The rainy weather has kept many
of the motorists in town for the past
several days, and some of them are
getting anxious to get out and around
in their gasoline buggies again.
Billy Reuss, for one, has become
restless because of the inactivity in
automobile circles and will do stunt
or two Just as soon as the condition
of the roads will permit
AS he usually brings back what he
starts after, there may be something
interesting in sight for the near fu-
ture that will add TO the news from

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Jan. 81.
The first track meet of the season
was held this afternoon. The meet was
a handicap affair and the distances were
shortened. Good time was made in
many events and the freshmen showed
up well.
Brown, a freshman from Pomona,
beat Miller in the quarter; Adams beat
Maundrell in the two mile, and ]. Il.
Thompson of San Francisco won the
half in good shape.
Martin cleared five feet nine inches
in the high jump. Bradford, Reed and

old men. Crary, a promising performer
from Harvard school, broke a tendon
in the quarter and will probably be
unable to compete for some time.

arranged, and it will surely keep the
public guessing as to the ultimate
winner. De Arman has two represen-
tatives in this race; his good colt
Creston and Ally Early Tide, and they
