Locals Defeat Richland
In Late Inning Attack

Playing their second home game
of the season, and the next-to-tfle
last of the first half league sched
ule, the White Bluffs Hanford ball
team routed Richland, to 2, in
a Memorial Day contest, after COM
ing from behind twice to tie the
score before they clinched the vic
tory in the eighth inning.
Richland took a one-run lead in
the first and held it until the fifth,
when the locals tied the score. In
the seventh, Richland went out in
front by one run again, only to
have the score tied up again by
the locals in the last half of the
same inning.
The game was the first played
on the new White Bluffs diamond,
and was marred during the last
few innings by a strong wind which
picked up plenty of dust from the
field The wind held most of the
hits into the inf1eld, doubles by
Wagner of the locals and Supplee
of the visitors being the only extra
base clouts of the afternoon.
Melvin Morris, southpaw hurler,
pitched for the locals for the first
time, striking out seven in three
innings and granting but two hits.
He was in trouble several times,
but managed to pull out of the
hole with little difficulty. Walker
followed him, pitching nice ball for
four innings, and Cords finished

Strawberry Root Weevil
Control Methods Listed
BY S. r. Kelso
Horticultural Inspector-at-Large

There are three kinds of straw
berry root weevils, but the most
common form is a small ibroWnish
beetle less than half an inch long.
1t is present on the strawberry
plants during the spring and sum-
ner. The time of emergence of the
weevils varies in the spring from
May l to June Is. They feed for
about two weeks on the strawberry
leaves before they begin to lay fer
tile eggs. Activity takes place only
at night. During the daytime they
remain hidden down in the crown
and under dead leaves and clods
of earth about the base of the
plants. The larvae or grubs are
white, legless and have light
brown head. They are found main
ly about the smaller roots of the
plant in the ground from to 10
inches deep. They eat off all the
small feeding roots Of the vine
and the tops show the effects by
the leaves dying. The plants in the
late spring appear unthrifty, red
dish, and finally die They are
loosely attached in the soil and may
be kicked out easily with the foot.
The strawberry root weevil passes
the winter as grubs in the soil
