HARRICAN TELLS
OF APHIS IN THE
IMPERIAL VALLEY
Commissioner Says Tiny
Lady Bird Beetles Save
Our Crops.
By B. A. HARRIGAN
County Horticultural Commissioner


AS a result Of our importations Of
ladybird beetles, the lnfcStation of
aphis ON melons and other crops
which occurs yearly at this season
has been practically eliminated. In
al parts of the valley are millions
Of ladvbirds of the two kinds which
were liberated last winter, the aShT
gray ladvbird and the common black
spotted red ladybird beetles, and
they have succeeded in keeping the
aphiS well under control. 50 that we
need have no fear of Il recurrence
of a severe infcstatiom such as we
had last season.
It has long been known that these
ladvbird beetles are Voracious feed
crs on aphis, which are their food
almost exclusively. Some years ago
several attempts were made to cS-
tablish the beetles here, and be-
cause these early attempts were un-
successful, it has been presumed that
the control Of aphis by libcrations of
ladvbirls was Impractical. The
beetles for these early liberations
were propagatcd in insrctaries aud
distributed by the United States de
partment of agriculture whenever
the aphis became so abundant as to
be serious. Unfortunately, 1t the
time when the ladybirds were lib
Grated III this valley, the aphis had
already done much Of its damage, so
that the effects of the beetles were
not felt, and they then disappear
with apparently negligible results.
1t is the habit of the ladyblrds to
hibernate in the winter in cool shady

places in the mountains congregat-
ing in caves and under rocks and
leaves. At this period, they can
be gathered by the thousands at
very low cost. Colonies can be found
in the san Diego mountains as well
as in the Sierra Nevada and the
northern coast ranges. AS soon as
warm weather begins in the spring,
they scatter ont again 10 hunt for
food. They multiply rapidly and as
both larvae and adults feed ON the
aphis, they make short work of the
aphidS.
Whom We liberated the colonies Of
ladybird beetle. last winter, it was
with tie idea tha. having been TAX
cn out ef Information and removed
ito warm climate, thcy would re-
main over the winter and begin
feeding Immediately and keep the
aphids SO well under control that
this pest would no longer be a fac
tor TO contend with. This supPo-
sition is wei! borne out by the facts.
The beetles have thrivcd and multi
piled. and may be seen everywhere
in the valley, while the aphjds, which
normally would br found intrsting
the melons and other crops, have
failed to appear in sufficient guam
titles to do any damage.
There are several kinds Of aphie
occurring in the valley. attacking
various crops and weeds at different
seasons Of the year. The melor
taphis. which is the most common in
furious species, attacks grapefruit
cucumbcrs, melons, cotton. and =
great variety Of other plants anc
mauv weeds. Another species at
tarks barley, corn and other grains
and still another feeds on peas, al
falfa and bur clover. Thus there /;
a succession Of host plants for the
various apiiids, and a continuous
supply Of aphids as food for the
ladybirds. BY repeating the liberia
tions of beetles each year at the
proper season, we feel assured tina
we can eliminate the aphiS rs a pes
in the valley.

SARAZEN BATTLES |
 SMITH FOR TITLE
Metropolitan Open Golf Cham
 piOnShip Still Undecided

New York, July 19 P-The met ropolitan open golf championship, scheduled at 72 holes of medal play in two days, already has required 10S holes and three days-and re- mains in the balance.
 Gene Sarazen, smiling little Ital- ian-American who won the open at Skokie in 1922, and silent, method ical Macdonald Smith, the Scot who captured the western and Long 1s- land open titles last year with scores of PSI, are arrayed against each other in a record making duel.
 Already they have reached the limit to which Bobby Jones and Willie MacFarlane were driven in the national open at Worcester in with a different result. They re- main all even and will try to reach a decision in another 1S-hole round at Salisbury next Saturday morning.
 Sarazen, who acquired the metro politan title at Brassy Sprain last summer, is playing brilliant golf in its defense. but without shaking for an instant the wonderful shot-maker who for several seasons has been a real threat in all kinds of competi- tion. Tied at 2S6 for 72 holes, in their two playoff rounds yesterday roth scored under par figures, 70 in the morning, 72 in the afternoon. Par for the 6,447 yard course is 7S.
 Each has taken 42S strokes in the championship to date with six rounds completed-an average of Il 1-3.
 Smith and Sarazen are almost ex- tremes of golf. Smith is rather tall with a natural swing that the books try to teach.
 Sarazen is a little dark complex toned fellow with a game developed by constant study and practice. But in one department they are alike they hit for tremendous distances. Smith may speak one sentence dur ing a round, that having to do with the business at hand, while most of the time Sarazen is willing to talk about anything to anyone in the gal lery who happens to be beside him.
 It is another case of the Tong and short of it" such as maintained at Worcester where the tall, bespec- tacled, grim MacFarlane finally downed short, stocky smiling Bobby Jones and, as it proved. prevented him from winning every great championship of the past two years.
 Each player underwent a strain

WESTERN AMATEUR
 PLAY IS STARTED
Annual Golf Battle Finds i5O Crack Shots Entered in Tourney

White Bear Lake, Minn., July Is P-Oyer the hilly stretches of the White Bear Yacht club course, the annual campaign to determine the western amateur golf championship gets under way today.
 Before tee time for the first pair
 -9 a. m.-the entry list showed 15o crack golfers scheduled to fight it out for the championship honors now held by Keefe Carter, of Okla homa City.
 The program called for departure of pairs at five minutes intervals un- til after 3 ?. m, with IS holes of medal play facing them today and the second Is carded for tomorrow.
 From this field the S1 low scorers for the S6 holes together with Car ter, who does not have to qualify. will enter match play competition Wednesday, elimination narrowing the list until the championship final is played, Saturday.
 Among the veterans watched by the knowing is Chick Evans of Chi cago, who starts at p. m., with Dr. O. F. Willing, of Spokane.
 Because of their sweeping victory in the intcrsectional singles matches with the midwesterners Saturday the group from the Pacific north west will be watched with interest in the qualifying rounds.
 The 6,5O7 yard course, for which par is 72, was in good shape. The fairways, hardened by several days of blistering sun, have been adding 80 and 40 yards to the tee shots The greens were in excellent condi- tion.

Pirates Robins


 The Pirates took a 17-5 decision from the Robins in a rather listless game, combining timely hitting with hopchic's wildness to offset the de- termined effort at a come back by the losers. The Robin pitcher made wretched start, walking the first four batters, while Roy made four passed balls a quarter of runs scor- ling before a tricky double play caught Zapatka off base. He fgur- cd Carlson's hit was foul and start led back for second, but was trapped and run down.
 The game settled down into a pitchers duel, the Pirates picking up another pair of runs in the third and the Robins finally getting to Hinchey for the same number in the fifth. Carlson then went into the box for the Pirates and, although often in danger, always had reserve enough in the pinches to weather the storm. In the seventh Zapatka who smacked out three hits and had a great day all around, walloped home run with Yankaskas on sec ond, the ball rolling onto the other diamond. After another Robin two- run attack in the ninth, the Pirates finally came out of their trance and slammed the ball for six hits and seven runs in the ninth. Wilson led off with a double for the Robins in their last attempt. and Meehan drew pass, but Makula and Dube could do nothing and Roy struck out.
 , The Robins actually played bet ter ball than the Pirates until the ninth, the winners loafing in the field and trying one-hand stops and other careless tricks which generally resulted In errors, while at bat the swung half -heartedly. The Robins, determined to make up for their trouncing the week before, made fewer errors and only one hit less than the Pirates, but could not hit Hinchey and Carlson in the pinches. The hitting of Zapatka, Roy, and Claire and the catching of Yankas- kas featured. The box score:
