Last year we introduced DIFOLATAN 4 Flowable This
year it’s the fastest selling potato fungicide on the market
There aie a lot of reasons for this One is that DIFO
LATAN is the only completely flowable fungicide you can
buy That makes it easier to handle There’s no dust to
bother you when pouring it And because it’s flowable, it
goes through any nozzle In othei words, it won’t clog your
equipment „ ,
And when it comes right to the heait of the matter
fighting blight ORTHO DIFOLATAN is better than any
fungicide being sold today
It gives excellent protection against both eaily and late
blight And is particularly effective against tuber lot
DIFOLATAN sticks to the plant, resists weathenng
from rain oi sprmklei irngation That means you can main
tain your schedule without worrying about the effects of
weathei or nngation
Protection against tubei lot is outstanding When you
put potatoes in storage, you’ll never know how well you did
in the blight fight until you’ve shipped the last of them
Fields may look reasonably healthy before harvest, but if
you put infected tubers into storage jou can find youiself
with a costly, heavy cull out of late blight tubei rot infec
tion
DIFOLATAN works to give you gi eater yields of
healthy potatoes And—because it’s flowable—it does that
even bettei
The fust time you use DIFOLATAN 4 Flowable will be
the last time you ever see potato blight
Anothei good thing about the fastest selling potato
fungicide It works on cucumbeis, melons, and tomatoes,

How much are they costing you?
It’s a fact that houseflies are carriers of many livestock diseases,
and loundworms and tapeworms, too That horn fly infestations
can reduce milk production by as much as 20%. That cattle
grubs account for 160 million dollars a year in livestock losses.
