TEST SEED FOR TERMINATION
Proper Rate Of Seeding Can Be De.
termined by Use of Wet Paper and
Two Dinner Plates.

Most Of the commoner seeds, In.
GLIDING the cereals. clover aud alfalfa,
may be tested for termination easily
and quickly on the farm. Take u fair
sample of the seed to be planted and
count 100 seeds. Fold a newspaper
so there will be a dozen thicknesses,
six by twelve inches; soak it in water,
squeeze out so 1t will not drip and lay
on dinner plate. Place the seeds on
the paper so they will not touch each
other and fold the wet paper over the
top TO cover them. Turn another din
ner plate over this and keep at room
temperature for four or five days.
Examine the seeds and count out
those which have terminated. and il
there are still seeds which have neither
terminated nor decayed. wet the paper
again If necessary and set away for
two or three days more. and again
count those which have terminated.
This shows the proportion of live seed
and the proper rate of seeding is de-
termined accordingly.

Dillon Outpointed
BY Willie Meehan
in Six Fast Rounds

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Oct. IT,
Willie Meehan. the California fat boy
heavyweight, left-heoked his way to
victory over Jack Dillon of Indianap-
Oils Monday night In six rounds. No
fighter has ever fought Dillon In this
city In the same manner that Meehan
did The lad from the Golden state
ignored Dillon's supposedly wicked
inches. A roundhouse left hook to the
stomach time after time forced Dillon
to break ground. The man from lad
annapolis, who has whipped some of
the best men in the world, was q
second runner throughout the entire
six rounds to his fat rival
Meehan fought on Worke6-out plan
He knew that Dillon was. a terrific
puncher and he never permitted the
man from the middle West to get set
Once in the first round and twice in
the second Dillon clipped Meehan with
long right to the jaw that hurt Willie
but they were too high to do any ser
ious damage. After that Willie fought
in an awkward clever manner and time
after time made Jack miss long right
hand leads.

Benny LEONARD
MEETS BRITTON
FRIDAY NIGHT
Fred Fulton Will Engage Bob
Devere on the Same
Night.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Oct. 17.-With
Benny Leonard, champion OF all the
1ightweights, stepping out Of his class
to engage Jack Britton, a welter, in
battle. while Fred Fulton, persistent
challenger of Jess Willard for the
heavyweight crown, engages Bob De-
we're, rising young husky, in a 10
round setto, the pugilistic calendar for
the current week will be CT especial
interest to followers Of the boxing
game.
Leonard and Britton are scheduled
to get together at New York City next
Friday night. On the same evening,
Fulton and Devere will trade wallops
at Milwaukee.
Chief interest naturally centers in
the contest between Leonard and
Britton because Of the fact that many
think the lightweight champion il
tackling mighty tough job in the
grizzled Britton. The latter Is q wise
been champion in his class and is now
runner up. He will give Leonard d
real battle, or all the dope Is wrong.
Brttton will have q decided advan
tage in the poundage. When the
match was made it was stipulated that
Britton should enter the ring at 13s
pounds, weight that he can easily
make and still retain his fullest ply
steal strength. Leonard, on the othel
hand, probably will scale about 134
pounds.
Can Leonard register a victory-s
! decisive one--over his heavier oppo
| nent? That is question all followers
OF the fistic game are asking now. 1
Britton should win, perchance deci
sively, Leonard will be universally
| censured for not staying in his class
It is true that Benny has frequently
! fought near-welters and emerged vic
| torious, but that was in the days be
| fore he became worlds champion
A defeat then would not have been /:
stain on bis prestige, such as would b.
| the case now II Britton were to whi]
! him.
