s t exceptional control of late blight.**
I used Dithanb M-22 on my entire crop of
certified seed potatoes during the 1958
season and I feel that the performance of
the product was outstanding. During the
month of August, we had an excessive
amount of rain in Aroostook County and.
late blight rapidly developed in the area.
Despite these severe disease conditions,
Dithane M-22 prevented any late blight
development in my crop. Under the cir
cumstances, I feel that Dithane M-22
gave me exceptional control of late blight.

best quality crop I ever

blight in spite of favorable disease weather
experienced during the growing season. I
-find its ease of handling and mixing a real
advantage and certainly plan to use it
again next season'.
