W|LLARD,DEMPSEY
BOUT LABOR DAY
Tex Rickard Will Build Arena
tor Fight to Seat $4,000
Persons

New York, Feb. 3.-Work OF con.
structing the open air arena for the
proposed bout between Jack Dempsey
and Jess Willard on Labor Day will
be started in a month, Tex Richard,
the promoter, announced today. He
SAID he had several sites near the city
under consideration and would soon
announce his selection. The arena will
seat at least $4,000 persons, he said,
and several important matches will be
held in It before the Labor Day en-
gagement.
A dispatch from Lawrence Kas.,
quotes Jess Willard as saying the post
ponement Of the match with Dempsey
ls agreeable to him.
ITS news to me, but IL Tex Rick
ard wants to postpone the bout until
after the champions match with Car
Pentier, l am willing" he said. when
l left New York nothing was said to
me about q postponement."
~ willard plans TO go to his farm near
Iopeka for few days and then return
to the East.
The postponement Of the Dempsey
Willard bout from March II to Labor
Day was announced yesterday by Rick
ard. Tex said
For various reasons I have decided
to postpone the Dempsey Willard bout
until Labor Day, September 8. While
both Dempsey and Willard are eager
and willing to observe the original con-
tract and meet at Madison Square
Garden on March II, I have decided
that the contest can better be staged
in the open air following the Dempsey
Carpenter contest on July 9.
The surprising demand for tickets
for the Willard. Dempsey bout clearly
indicates that Madison Square Garden
would accommodate only a fraction of
those who desire to see the bout.
Il shall therefore erect large open :
air arena for the International contest
and stage match between Willard
and the winner Of the Dempsey Car
pentier bout under the existing con =
tract. This change Of date Is made
with the consent and approval Of both
Dempsey and Willard"

"A barn with two rows Of tie stalls,
facing a center feeding alley for the

This makes for minimum Of labor in

Ample yard space should be pro
vided adjacent to the barn, for the
COW herd needs plenty of exercise and
should be turned out every day for a

need exercise, yet should not be re
quired to withstand too much expos
ure. For open heiferS and dry COWS
a cheaply constructed shed which pro-
vides shelter from wind and storm and

DISEASE KILLS
CLOVER WEEv|L

vents 1t Developing Into
Serious Menace.
INSECT EXACTS LARGE TOLL
Pest Is Found in Practically Every
Section of Country Where Glover
Is Grown-larvae Most Numer-
Gus During Spring.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
If IL were not for an ever-present
fungous disease, which is powerful
natural enemy of the clover-leaf
weevil, .this pest would develop into a
serious menace TO one Of Americas
most important crops-clover. The
clover-leaf weevil, even with this
handicap, is one of the most danger
Gus of clover pests and eHacts a large
annual toll The larvae of the weevil
usually are checked by the fungous
disease, which spreads rapidly and re-
duces their numbers TO a negligible
quantity in remarkably short time.
Brought From Europe.
Like many pests now present in this
country, the clover-leaf weevil was in
troduced accidentally from Europe,
where il is well known. The first rec
ord of its occurrence as pest in the
United States was in 1881. when Sc
we're outbreak occurred at harrington,
n. ]. It is now found in practically
every section of the country where
clover is grown. It's cLief food crop
is clover, but 1t also feeds on alfalfa
and sweet clover.
The adult weevil lays its eggs on
the stems of the clover plant, and in
early spring the larvae hatch and be-
gin TO feed as soon as the clover starts
its growth. Larvae are most numer-
Gus during April, but beginning with
May there is q gradual falling off in
numbers, and by the end of that month
or the middle of June, practically all
have completed their growth and spun
their pupal cocoon. The adult weevils,
or beetles, emerge in from . TO 16
days, and feed steadily on the clover
plant for about two weeks, after
which they become semidormant, or
remain inactive until early in Septem-
Der. At this time they again become
active and feed for about a month,
during which the eggs are laid.
Hides During the Day.
Both the larvae and adult weevils
feed during the night, and conceal
themselves in the day under rubbish
or in cracks in the ground. Usually
they work on the undeiside of the
leaves where they eat small holes and
are not seen except by the careful OBJ
server. The most important check on
the pest is the fungous disease, which
kills the larvae in vast numbers dur
