Georgia school boy, in the pink of
condition, the scheduled 10-round,
no-decision bout between these
pugilists Friday night at Hialeah
today doomed as a gruelling fight.
The large stadium, occupying a
site at Hialeah directly north of
the Miami Jockey Club track, has
been completed except for the con-
struction of the squared circle and
the installation of additional light
ing fixtures. The bowl viii seat
10000 persons. According to Pro-
moter Jess Baugh, more than
10000 seats have been sold al
ready, principally to fans in cities
throughout this section, where
Stribling is favorite.
After rest over Sunday, the
two contenders for the heavy
weight crown resumed training
yesterday. Stribling has moved
his camp from the Miami baseball
field to the southern end Of Miami
Beach, where he can also indulge
in light road work along the sea-
side. He was expected to work six
rounds today with his three sparr-
ing partners.
The former A. E. F. champion
has trimmed down ito fighting
weight at 1877 pounds and intends
to enter the bout carrying about
the same poundage. He has main-
tanned a light training program
during his sojourn here during the
winter, even before announcement
of his match with Stribling, and
little conditioning was needed to
place him in shape for this fight.
Tunney today continued his work
outs at the Roman Pools, on Miami
Beach.

lime may be needed from time to

Seeding
The usual mixture used IN seeding
comes with a high percentage of blue
grass and red top-abOut 60 per cent
blue grass and 40 per cent red top
with several varieties Of other
grasses supporting them.
In case of extreme shady locations,
a special mixture should be obtained.
Broadcast seed evenly over surface.
A practice is to divide the seed even
ly into two parts and sow half one
way and remaining portion crosswist>
over the first seeding.
For new lawns use five to six
pounds per 1000 square feet Of sur
face
White clover should be used, but
should not be incorporated in the
general mixture After sowing the
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-03-26

Light subsequent seedlings of the
basic mixture should be given every
fall or spring until the ideal lawn is
obtained.
There must be neither too much
nor too little water.
Excess water should be taken care
Of by proper surface drainage, or
where necessary, tile drainage.
Avoid light sprinklings. Water thor
oughly to a depth of several inches.
y thorough soaking once on twice
week is far better than light sprink-
LYING ever evening. Apply moisture
after the heat Of the day has passed.
The cutting should not be too close
the first season TO protect the Jung
and tender crowns of the plants
from the sun.

The Soil
Too often the lawn is made from
the subsoil obtained in eXcavating
for the cellar. This dirt is usually
heavy, and very poor material. In
excavating, the top soil should be
kept separate and be used as the

basis for the seed bed. For ideal
results at least four to six inches of
good soil should cover the area to
be seeded or sodded later.
Grading
The surface of the lawn should be
brought to a uniform grade before
the seed bed is made. The grade
should slope away from the founda-.
ton of the house. The seed bed
proper should be cultivated or
raised. After a lawn is one seeded
nothing can be done to remedy
poor grade without losing valuable
time, and money.
Fertilization
Phosphorus, potash and nitrogen
are the three principal elements of
all plant food, and the latter is the
one that is Of most Importance in
producing a vigorous and luxuriant
growth Of desirable grasses.
Well-rotted manure is the best
fertilizer to use, and should be
worked into the seed bed before the
seeding. If commercial fertilizer is
used, use a standard preparation
carrying a formula of about 410-4,
as is known in trade. The CONNER
cial preparation should be used be-
fore the seed is applied.
After the new seeding has oppor
tunity to establish itself, an addition
al amount of fertilizer may be needed
to stimulate and keep the grasses in
a vigorous, growing condition. The
amount to be used varies as to the
commercial brands, and special at
tention should be given the direc
lions obtained at time Of purchase.
Three to four pounds per 100 square
feet is a good average application.
If the soil is sour or acid an APP |
plication of lime should be given be-
fore seeding. The applications of

Rfusal of Judge filling to con- vict . man of selling liquor when tho evidence secured was by an agent who represented to the man he had a "sick wife" and badly needed the liquor, is in conformity with enlightened court practice. The reputation of any of the men involved has nothing to do with such a case. It cannot be held that such evidence is procured in an honest manner. There should be a law against official lying. Such cases are of a piece with those in which agents provoke lawbreaking and then make arrests. Or those in which agents commit burglary in order 10 steal evidence. Such meth ods should have no place in Flaw enforcement"

Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown" has been the saying: but the head of the uncrowned king of Italy Mussolini must at times vie with those of actual kings in wearily lying uneasy as the star spangled heavens smile content. To be shot at for the sixth time and still be alive Is no mean record. No king perched upon throne of gold has had a more spectacular record. Il Duce has a charmed life -or has had to the present time. The attempt upon the premier's life in Bologna had a different aft ermath than the other attempts, the crowd taking the law into it's own hands by staging a lynching before the police could offer ade- quate protection. One is forced 10 wonder why there are would-be as- sassins left in Italy, seeing that the rule of Mussolini has been so bene- hccnt.

 Such frank analysis of the situation from a Republican news. paper would indicate that if men like Morris and Tyler, who are bet ter than their party, will keep at it long enough and bear the brunt of the battle long enough, the Democrats will eventually have a chance. But one cannot ignore the difficulties which tend to prevent a more salutary balance between the two parties and which are due to ,Connecticuts undemocratic and ar chaic system of representation and the power which 1t gives to the small towns In the Legislature.

25 Years Ago Today

Halloween was observed in more ways than one in New Britain last evening. Cabbage stumps were thrown with the usual . regularity and velocity, gates were borrowed, tick-tacks were operated on Win dows, tricks were played by young women, also by some who are not young, and many an old chap was called out of his bed by the ringing of his oell, only to hear the hurry ing footsteps of Young America on a run Up the street. In some cases the boys behaved like ruffians. There was a decidedly novel cele- bration on Arch street. A crowd of boys procured some bad eggs and some over-ripc fruit and proceeded to bombaro the store of l. Guesow. Occasionally the door was opened and some of the fruit was thrown into the store. The exterior of the building presented very uninviting appearance this morning.

It Is a matter of some satlsfac- tion to know that twenty mysteri- ous deaths in the Oklahoma Osage Indian country cannot take place without some punishment being meted out to those found guilty of instigating the deaths in the effort to obtain the rich oil lands of the Osage Indians in that state. The great scandal of the southwest has terminated in two sentences of life Imprisonment being meted out one sentence to one of the wealthiest ranchers in the state. Of course, appeals will be made, as usual. Mulcting the Indians who suddenly have found themselves possessed of rich oil bearing lands has been one of the great sports of the south west, but killing them off is going entirely too far. Not even the gov ernment can allow such rough tao tics.
