when Tender faltered after basting
him all over the ring for four
rounds.
Not until then could Leonard
dangle the fistic magic that has
earned him the sobriquet next to
the greatest"
Leonard was visibly dazed until
this juncture-dazed and amazed.
He said afterward that he was stun
ned by a butt in the first round
from the challenger's head. Tender
said 1t was from a cuff from his left
hand. After the fourth Benny swept
the cobwebs from his head with
both hands.
Not often is Benny Leonard hard
put. Occasions have been rare
when a fighter in the midst of battle
has said to him: Come on and
fight"
Tender said it repeatedly. Leon
ard says he is at the height of his
career. Tender frankly admits that
he will grow into a better fighter.
After Tex Richard announced to-
day that the receipts from the fight
were about $4,000, fight fans fig
uring Leonard's share which was
42h per Ger of the gross, estimated
that the lightweight champion would
get about $191,250 while Tender
would receive about 500, 900 on the
basis of 20 per cent. Richards ex-
penses for the battle were reckoned
at $4,000 aside from the fighters
share and his profits were declared
to be $153,750.

The verdict is that of a majority of
newspaper writer's at the ringside.
Silent throughout the arduous
days of training to the betlittling
statements that Leonard made about
him, Tender gave his answer last
night. 1t came hard and straight
from his left shoulder. Leonard had
predicted that he would finish Tend

Out of stricken Austria come the COM

money together to visit DR.. Eugen Stein
ach at Vienna, no great task considering
the current rate of exchange. 1t is even
rumored that the distinguished professor
is about to come to US to carve out an
American reputation as a surgical Ponce
de Leon. Already he has an American n
representative who tells US pleasantly how
modern John Andersons and helpmates
may Jazz it gaily down the hill and dance

Hereafter, it seems, il will be social

has set the hair growing like grass IN the

disappear like dewdrops before the sun.

Here is no question of transportation

to be sure, have something to do with IL,

Use of Lime in Agriculture.

Following is an extract from the paper
read at the Farmers meeting at Orono,
by w. Nj. GRAY.
'In dealing with the matter OF the use
of lime we are apt to think OF 1t more a.
long the line of better production oil some
crop. than a step in the building up OF our
somewhat depleted soils, to establish
permanent system of soil Improvement
that will continue on, to oenent coming
generations. 1t has been my experience
in the section in which live, that only in
the proper use of a sufficient amount OF
lime, can we hope to effect that system OF
permanent soil fertility toward which all
forward looking agriculturists are work.
ing. For we now know that large per-
centage of the farms of the state need lime
to offset the sour conditions existing, as
shown by hundreds of tests.
| The reasons for using lime are, to neu-
tralize acid in the soil; to help the me
cbanical condition of the soil, knowing
that lime tends to break up clay, and bind
together sand; lime puts the soil IN such
condition that the bacteria benehciai TO
farming are able to thrive.
The amount of lime to use per acre is
question being decided in better way to-
day than heretofore, as any farmer In the
state is dDIe tuIOuRu Ills Couuef a. IA -
reau to have his soil tested, telling him
not alone whether his soil is acid, but the
degree of its sourness, and the amount OF
lime needed to make conditions right. In
York County large numbers of samples
have been tested, the last two years, and
/. this same is true of Waldo and several
others. If your Farm Bureau is not pro-
vidsd with this testing apparatus see that
it is, or get your county agent to have the
testing done for you.
Several forms of lime are on the mar
ket. Buy them as you would feeds OF fer
tilizer, for what they contain. Figure out
their content of material needs, freight,
carriage, etc., and try to buy the cheapest t.
Cheapness usually goes hand in hand with
cooperative carload orders made up in the
various communities.
Mr.. Gray cited detail reports from varl-
Gus counties showing beneficial effects OF
use of lime. He added:
There is throughout the entire state
feeling that the price of lime is too high,
it costing around S8. ton for ground
limestone landed at most of the stations
and SI2 to Sis. for higher grade lines.
When lime is reduced to the place where
ground limestone can be landed anywhere
in Maine for about S. and other forms
accordingly, its use will increase In keep
