    THE MOUNTING for this tractor was developed by engineers at Penn State
University in cooperation with the U S. Steel Co. It supports two applicator tanks of
anhydrous ammonia, and was used at two locations in the county this week. Helping
to make this material a low-cost fertilizer is the fact that every 100 pounds of an
hydrous ammonia contains 82 pounds of nitrogen. L. F. Photo
Grassy Weeds Stealing
Nothing can steal profits from your corn crop quite like grassy weeds . . ,
especially giant foxtail 'and other foxtails. Where these pests grow uncon
trolled, com yields are sure to drop. This year, don’t let it happen to you.
Hire a killer . . . Ramrod, the remarkable new pre-emergence herbicide
developed by Monsanto Company to control grassy weeds before they
start. . . without harm to com, and'without chemical carryover in the soil
to wreck your crop rotation plans. Ramrod, the careful killer, stops grassy
weeds during the early stage of crop growth when weed competition has
its worst effect on yields. Then Ramrod disappears, leaving your fields
clear of weeds and chemical. All you get is more money in your pocket at
harvest. Talk to us today about Ramrod ... best inend your com ever had!
