 On Great Sport Topics
By JAMES J. ooRBETr

per showed signs of returning conscious ness. The referee delayed nine" un- til just the moment Harper got to his
 feet. Wiley, noticing that Harper was in bewildered condition, rushed over
 Intent upon dropping him again. But
 the refere pushed him back and snarled:
 You are hitting low and fighting foul.
 Tfere must be no more of it. You must
 fight fair. I'll not caution you again.
 All this gave Harper needed rest and
 by the time that the referee ceased
 holding Wiley, Harper had recovered sufficiently to weather the rest of the
 round which had lasted at least 10 min
 utes, due to the fact that the time keeper and the referee were in "co- 1 hoots." Wiley floored Harper again in the seventh round. Although the crowd made a wild demonstration, the referee duplicated his trick of the third round
 by delaying the count of 10 until Har- per had time to recover which required almost three minutes
 In the ninth round, Wiley, in side stepping, ripped and fell on his knees. He was down for second or so but as he was about to bound to his feet, the referee pointed a finger at him and yelled:
 "one. two. three-ten. You're out and Harper wins?"
 l. took the referee just about two
 seconds to count out Wiley and then
 he hoped out of the ring and was gone before Wiley or the crowd could grab
 him and make formal protest. That's just one incident that shows the error of putting counting power in referees. There are many others and in
 later articles I shall enumerate some
 that deal with more important ring bat ties.

tain water. This desect is overcome
in various ways of which two will be
described here briefly. The usual way
of making loose rock dams water-tight
is to place earth in front In the man
ner indicated In Fig. 3. The same care
should be taken in placing this earth
as has been recommended for earthen
dams proper and the cutoff wall of
concrete placed along the upper toe
of the rock slope usually is a neces-
sary part of such combination struc-
lures. Another way Of making loose
rock dams watertight is to line the
front face with timber in some such
way as that shown in Fig. A.

terial is found near the surface, the
more porous top covering should be re-
moved and foundation laid on the i'm
shrubbery, sod, and decayed vegetable
matter should be cleared away be-
fore the dam is begun. In the bet
ter class of such dams q narrow trench
is dug beneath the center of the en-
bankment down to bedrock or other
good material and wall of concrete,
known as q rim core wall, is built
therein. This wall projects above the
surface and serves purpose similar
to a tongue in grooyed-and-tongu
lumber joints. A clay puddle may be
substituted where a concrete core wall
around the rim would prove too ex-
pensive In this case much wider
trench should be dug, filled with the
best material available, and carefully
puddled and rammed.
Packing Materials.

railroad fills little, Il any, attention is
paid to packing materials, but in the
case of earth fills to retain water,
packing is necessary. Experience has
shown that one of the best ways to

water and let nature do the packing
When this method is not feasible the
earth should be placed on the en-

MANURE TO INCREASE CROPS
At Pennsylvania It Was Found That
Application Of Six Tons Was
Better Than Ten.

Stable manure has long been con-
sidered a very valuable fertilizer. 1t
is usually thought by farmers that the
larger the application of manure the
greater the crop increase. Experiment
tai data shows that such is not the
case. At Pennsylvania it was found
that an application of six tons per
acre gave a return of 1929 per ton as
compared with 1929 per ton when ten
tons per acre were used. This is q dol
lar a ton in favor of the lighter appli-
cation. At the same rate the farmer
VINO has a hundred tons of manure to
spread can save nearly enough to pay
for his manure spreader. Hand spread
irag could hardly put manure on at the
rate of six tons. This Is not an iso-
lated ease. Other work has shown an
actually smaller yield with a large
amount than with a smaller amount OF
manure.

to withstand such severe tests, but

HOW TO CONSTRUCT RESERVOIRS

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture1
Reservoirs built In the beds of
streams or other depressions are
used mainly for irrigation purposes.
The dam may be of earth, loose rock,
timber, concrete, or masonry, or COM
binations of two or more of these.
However. since on the large majority of
sites earth is the most abundant and
cheapest material available, 1t has
been used chiefly. The percentage Of
failure of dams of this type has been
large. The main causes have been
(1) faulty and inadequate wasteways,
(2) porous earthen emoankments not
properly compacted, and (3) insecure
foundations.
Examination for Foundation.
When the location for the dam has
been decided upon a careful examina-
ton of the foundation should be made.
Test pits should be sunk at intervals

monty used method of building earthen
entertainments and of loosening and
transferring earthly material for other
purposes. In making use of this
method an ample supply of water is
necessary. What is called the cutting
stream is under high pressure from
60 to 100 pounds per square inch. The
pressure may be obtained by gravity
fall or by pumping, and the water Is
conveyed to the material to be exca-
waited In pressure pipe of suitable
diameter. The end of the pressure pipe
terminates in giant from which
a stream is directed against the
bank of dirt. A large stream of wa

then is added to the former stream to
carry the material loosened by the

A grain ration consisting of two
pounds of wheat bran, one pound of
oats (crushed oats being preferred),
one pound of finely ground cornmeal,
