We believe our development of Dithane.M-22 to be a long step in this direction—as important a step as when we introduced Dithane D-14 fifteen years ago. Dithane M-22 (maneb) is the result of-step-by-step laboratory work and field trials. This careful, patient-work paid.off handsomely last season. Data from commercial trials and from field tests by cooperating Experiment Stations confirmed our confidence in Dithane M-22 as a superior potato blight fungicide. We want youJta share this confidence with us. Detailed information on last season’s extensive fieldwork will be sent to you and to your supplier during the coining months. Right now we can tell you this: - - - - We believe two main reasons why Dithane M-22, outperforms other fungicides are its "built-in" ability to resist weathering, and its higher toxicity to blight spores. One and one-half pounds of DitHane M-22 applied at seven-day intervals proved significantly better than two quarts of Dithane D-14. Ourdosage recommendations will range from one to two pounds, depending on disease conditions, and timing. Soon you will be "planning your potato spray program.
