Abstract of the Disclosure A rate measuring device comprises a beam with a plurality of graduated scales and a cup on one end thereof. While a material dispensing machine is moved a certain distance, the material normally applied to the ground is collected in a container and subsequently transferred to the cup. Next, a fulcrum is placed beneath the beam in a position to exclusively carry and horizontally balance the beam. The operator then reads the graduated scale at a location vertically above the fulcrum, the scales being calibrated in terms of pounds per acre or kilograms per hectare. Conse- quently, the farmer can directly read his applica- tion rate of materials dispensed per acre or hectare, while, in actuality, the machine has been driven only a short distance. In one embodiment, the fulcrum is attached to a handle portion which contains a reel adapted to hold a measuring tape or string used to mark the distance the machine must travel.
