Over The Tee Cup Labhart New eolf balls were awarded to Bonnie, Coramae, Gene and Maxine for only taking one putt with the hammer. I carded low gross score, and Donna McCurdy won a special prize. OBNOXIOUS OBSTACLE OB ! SERVANCES : Marie takine 15 strokes on no 5 (she just could n't stay out of the creek) . . . Cork having trouble on the samel hole, for after shooting three balls into the creek from off the tee. she then found her first ball, and hoping to land on the green with her second shot she really "laid into it. out something went wrong for instead of shoot ing straight ahead she went dir ectly to the left and right behind the screen, but finally she con trolled her bottled up energy and didn't pop her "cork" and made it into the cup. (If you fellows are laughing by now, just try to use vour woods all the way on no 5 . . . and remember that's putting too.) .... Coramae made the best drive of her life off number 4 while sitting down (euess those pro's know what they are talking about when they say just relax and take it easy, when you play golf) . . . Cathy Collins, driving off at number six tee and landing on no 5 green . . . Hazel naving me time of her life jumping up ana down on the innertube on no 7 (made a beautiful drive too) . . no 2 (which is an obstacle course all the time anyway) seemed to hp the hardest hole for exery- one, for the stove pipe was to the right of the green witn only a few feet to spare between it and the ditch, and getting . in the right position to approacn through it onto the ereen was a masterpiece of manipulation (the average score on that hole was about 11) ... wish I'd have had a camera on no 1, for we had a "bucket" load of laughs, (in fact some of us with big feet could hardly get one foot in, let alone tee off that way) and some of our drives looked like they had "kicked the bucket" the way they "died" half way to the green . . . Delores carded one of her best scores (a 51, and that's pretty good when you think of the ob stacles) . . . Dee taking four putts with the hammer (could be carpentry just isn't her cup of tee). OVERHEARD: that Jack Loyd and Frank Anderson went to Pen- Idleton last week to play golf. jThey left early Monday morning but didn't get home until lues day afternoon. (But Jack said, "after all we played 18 holes, and that's a long course.) . . . that Kieth Imus had lot's of troubles Sunday . . . that Tom F.lv. coif pro at Columbia Edge- (water, was here hunting this weekend and hopes to come bacK and play our course this fall (should be interesting) . . . mat in four ladies days' we have col lected $11.75 for our putts (do von realize that is 1,175 putts; but it's a simple way to make money.)

" IJ. . w I A DISCUSSION OF 'APHIDS CONTROL The appearance of spotted aphids in Morrow county has caused much interest to be shown in control measures. I Since forage crop spraying is relatively new, not many know the ecology of insect life in for age crops. Every field crop con tains many insects. Many of them live on the crop itself, many pollinate the crop and many insects are parasites and predators that live on other in sects that feed on the field crops. Broad spectrum contact poison sprays as the name implies, kill insects on contact, so that every insect, good or bad that touches the sprayed plants will be killed. Pests Become Immunized It can be reasonably assumed that many insect pests will de velop an immunity to almost any insecticide in about 15 gen erations. It must be remembered that the woolly aphid in Calif ornia developed an immunity to hydrogen cyanide gas many years ago, which is one of the most deadly poisons known to man. Many common insect pests have more than one generation a year, some have as many as six or seven, even in the tem perate zone. In other words, some insects such as aphids and mites can and do develop an immunity to these Insecticides in two or three years. This means new and stronger poisons have to be used to kill them. What can a farmer expect to happen if he sprays his forage crop for aphids? For a year or two he may get good results, though often with aphids a later infestation may show up worse than the first. This is usually due to killing off the parasites of the aphids that control them under natural conditions. This is not the most serious result of a spray pro gram. Far more serious is the build up of other insects that are far more destructive than the aphids. Other Pests Increase One of these are the cut worms. These are common everywhere, but various parasites keep them under control most of the time. Under a spray program they are also killed along with their para sites. However, cut worms may have three or more generations a year, so in five years or less, spray will no longer kill them, but continues to kill their main parasites. The result of course is almost complete defoliation of the crop by cut worms. Cut worms are not the only insect that can build up to dam aging proportions under a spray program. Others are the aphids and mites. These are extremely difficult to control bY chemical means as they have so many generations a season and de velop resistant mutations so quickly. In two or three years red mite can develop immunity to such deadly poisons as para thion and TEPP. Before any farmer starts using a spray program he should understand the possible serious consequences. He must realize the minute he starts upsetting the ecology of insects in the field, anything can happen. He must realize the first spray will have to be followed up with more and more stronger and stronger poisons, that get more and more expensive. Eventually the spray program may cost more than the value of the crop. There are other measures of control which can give greater long-term promise. These will be discussed In a later article.
