Half Of Contest
Sixth Year Of Work
The Hermiston Gridiron Warriors
cleaned up on the Umatilla Railroad
ers on the local field last Friday by
the overwhelming score of 45 to 0.
The game started out like a real
battle with the visitors putting up
a strong defense and opening up a
flashing aerial attack that looked
dangerous at times. They held the
locals to 6 to 0 In the first half and
tad possession of the ball most of the
time.
In the second half the record was
different. From the first kickoff Her
miston carried the ball straight down
the field for a counter. They kept
the oval most of the time and scored
repeatedly on end runs, off tackle
smashes and as a result of intercept
ing Umatilla passes.
George Fetzer uncorked some new
ones on the locals, but one stunt on
kickoff was ruled out. The Hermis
ton line proved mighty tough for the
visitors, and the field running abili
ty of Newell and Kennings, aided by
the interferance given by their back-
field mates proved plenty good.
Mahoney, Thompson and Walsh
made up the visitors’ passing combi
nation, and Bray was the strong man
of their defense.
Coach Walenta played all of his
men in the fray to give some of the
younger, players a little experience.
The local lineup wag as follows:
Grfggs, center; Earnheart, Upham
guards;
Ott, Robinson, tackles;
Smith, G. Parson8 ends; D. Parsons,
McKenzie, halves; Newell, full; and
Kennings, quarter. Substitutions:

GRANT PERMIT FOR.
BIG LONGVIEW SPAN
Lamb feeding for experimental
purposes is being conducted this year
at the Hermiston Experiment station
for the sixth consecutive year, ac
cording to H. K. Dean, superintend
ent. The lambs are still on pasture
and w ill not go into the feed lots
at the farm until December 1.
The purpose of this year’s work
will be to secure further information
a« to the relative value of long hay,
choppd hay and ground alfalfa meal
for lamb feeding, Supt. Dean stated.
Data already secured In previous
years show that chopped hay 1» more
profitable and that the meal is still
more economical than long hay. with
allowance made for the greater cost.
The lambs w ill have a ration of
all the hay they will clean up and
a pound of whole barley per head
per day. There will be six lots of 45
head each.
"During the five years our feeding
operations have been conducted we
lost money one year, broke even an
other and made money the three re
maining years,” Mr. Dean stated.
"Lamb feeding Is not proving of in
terest to many local farmers, but In
Union, Wallowa, Malheur and other
eastern Oregon counties, I have found
that sheep men and feeders have
been following the results of the testg
closely and with Interest.”
INTEREST CONTINUES IN
FORMING COW TESTING BODY
Cow testing work that will re
quire between one and two weeks of
the official tester's time is In pros

cording to a check made by G. H.
Jenkins, assistant county agent, who
Is In charge of securing the signup
of dairy herd owners locally for the

Local dairy men are keenly Inter
ested In the proposed associatoin,
and the chief cause of delay In push
ing the sfgnup through to an immed
iate conclusion is the fact that so
many herds' are so small that two or
three owners must combine In order
to provide one day's testing each
month, Mr. Jenkins stated. Neigh
