SCRUBS TRIUMPH
Kennewick Second Team Players
Trim Benton City Team

The faithful scrubs, who have
been working hard to make the
first team successful football
unit, have come into their own.
Last Saturday the little group OF
players went to Benton City to
demonstrate their ability. They
did that in the first half by roll
ing the score up to 81 to 0, in THEN
favor. The half was marked by
the superior ability OF the Kenne-
wick team over that Of the Benton
City squad. Although all of his
team mates were able, Vance Hol-
comb executed all. His end runs
and line bucks gained yard after
yard for Kennewick. He made
three touch downs to one each for
Anderson, Campbell and Newkirk.
In the second half Benton City
improved but the scrubs added
fourteen more points to the score.

SHOULD SPRAY FOR
APHIS THIS FALL
Georgeson Says Orchardists Must
Get Busy - Soon ~ Leaves
Have Fallen

County Agent Valdemar L.
Georgeson has issued the follow
ing statement regarding methods
for checking the spread Of woody
aphis:
The late fall is a good time to
spray for woody aphis. At this
season Of the year the insects de-
velop winged forms that fly to
apple trees and there reproduce a
wingless generation which in turn
produce the winter egg that is
laid on the twips.
By Spraying, as soon as suf-
ficient leaves have fallen to per-
nit Of a thorough job, these in
sects can be satisfactorily check
ed. By combining the regular dor
mant spray with the aphis spray
the necessity Of spraying in the
early spring, when time is precious
and work is pressing, can be avoid
ed.
Two sprays are suggested for
use, lime and sulphur, regular
dormant strength, to which has
been added "Black Leaf 40" at the
rate of one and one-half pints to
two hundred gallons. This COM
bination was used by at least one
person on the Highlands a year
ago this fall, and it proved salts
factory in checking the woolly
aphis.
The other spray that can be used
is regular oil spray, winter
strength. Any oil spray, Of course
should be used in strict accordance
with the directions given by the
manufacturer.
For those who have orchards
that gives evidence of abundance Of
Woolly aphis, spraying at this time
is strongly advocated.
