Indians Fail To
Scalp Choteau In
Fridays 20 Game

Wy OIllUh ACoLuCTtcSlJ
Capitalizinx on a break" in
the second quarter, the Teton
County high school football team
kicked over the dope bucket
and spilled the Browning Indians
Z to 0 in a hard-fought game
played at Choteau last Friday
night.
Slightly favored to win because
of conference victories over Gu,
Bank and Conrad. the Indians
failed to show their usual of,
fensive drive when the breaks
came their way.
Browning won the toss and ell.
ected to receive. They immedl.
ately drove from their own 20 to
the Choteau 20 on q series of
line plays. which tore huge gaps
in the Teton forward wall. There
the opposition stiffened and the
Indian offensive begged down
and the Bulldogs took over.
They opened up the Browning
line. driving up the field in a
series Of first downs. which
ended in Browning territory
when the Indians held on fourth
down.
As Far as any further consist
ent offensive action was con-
cerned, both teams were through
for the evening.
Midway in the second quarter
the Tetons got their break. I"
The Indians safety muffed a
bounding ball on his own 8-yard
line and the opponents recovered.
They scored on the first play on
a wide-end sweep around their
own right end without a hand
touching him. The try for point
was good and the Tetons led Z to
0.
Throughout the remainder of
the game Browning tried vainly
to solve the mystery of a spread
defense, which e f f e c tua ~
stopped the Indian backs. Holes
opened up but closed before the
backs could reach them.
In the last half they got
two scoring chances, but failed
to make anything out of either
of them.
Coaches kershaw and Kipp
placed the blame for part of the
apparent lack of scoring punch
on the poor blocking shown on
offense.
Teton players were not taken
out OF the play and came back IN
time to spill the runner before he
could get much farther than the
scrimmage line.
However. they did express a
certain amcun of pleasure over

Alfalfa Need Listed
BY Co. Agent Wilson

the rate OF from 20 to 80 pounds per
acre, as alfalfa plants spread very
little before the first winter, and an
even distribution Of plants is de-
sirable in order to assist in holding
weeds in check. A more uniform
seeding may be secured by sowing
half the seed one way across the
field, and the other half at right
angles to the line Of the first SOW
ing.
In discussing alfalfa with Kent
county farmers, County Agent Rus
sell E. Wilson places special en-
phasis also on the source of seed
and the Importance OF inoculation.
Although some farmehs prefer the
Grimm alfalfa, it is recommended
that the common alfalfa be seeded
under Delaware conditions, and
that Kansas-Nebraska or northwes-
tern-grown seed be used If satisfac-
tory results are to be obtained. The
incubation material usually can
be purchased at the place where
the seed is bought, and should be
used according to directions.
In regard to fertilization, expert
ments have indicated that fer
tilizer which is high in potash
should be used at the time Of seed
ing. Since alfalfa is a leguime and
it gathers nitrogen from the air,
the fertilizer should contain only
enough nitrogen to give the crop |
a good start. From 400 to 500 |
pounds of 2-S-10 fertilizer per
acre should be sufficient, except
that the nitrogen might be elimi-
mated if barnyard manure is ap-
piled to the land and plowed un-
der previous to seeding the alfalfa.
AS alfalfa will not grow success
fully on very acid soil, it Is nee
sssary that lime be applied, but the
per acre should be deter
mined by a soil test which will be
made. free of charge by the Della
ware Experiment Station or the
State Board of Agriculture.
