Last year, growers all across the corn belt took us up on our
"Green 'n Easy" fall plowdown program. Response was so
enthusiastic, we are making the offer again this year
What is "Green 'n Easy?"
Under an Ortho "Green 'n Easy" program for corn, you sim
ply plowdown Ortho Unipel 20-10-10 this fall in the amounts
you determine from exclusive Ortho yield goal formulas
and you'll be through with all of your pre-plant plowdown
of N-P-K
Follow it up next spring with an at-plantmg applica-
tion of Ortho Umpel Starter Special. You
can apply it as a "dry pop-up" with the seed
at 50 Ibs./A and save time and material
handling, while assuring a vigorous start
for your com crop.
What are the chances of nitrogen loss?
Extensive research conducted by corn ex-
perts in every corn-growing state has dem
onstrated time and again that where losses
of fall-applied nitrogen have occurred in
fields suitable for fall plowdown (that is,
other than sandy soils, steep slopes, land
that floods, or organic soils), the maximum
loss has been less than 20%

Sheep Producers Promote New
Lamb Dishes, 'Action Fabrics'
The semi-annual meeting of the
board of directors of the
American Sheep Producers
Council (ASPC) was held
recently in Cheyenne, Wyoming,
October 7-8, the first time the
meeting has .ever been held
outside of Denver.
The promotion organization is
sponsored by the sheep industry
to promote lamb and wool. The 42
directors represented every part
of the country and the estimated
175,000 sheep producers.
Henry Hibbard, ASPC
president from Helena, Mont.,
conducted the directors’ meeting
and called for industry unity.
In a series of workshops the
directors were told of the need for
the sheep industry to be more
vocal in pointing out the
tremendous good which the
livestock industry is to this
country, not only in providing
food and fiber but also in im
proving the environment.
Alfred Fisbeck, executive
director of the Council,
headquartered in Denver, said
the sheep industry must reply
Ortho stands behind its program
If your young growing corn in the fields where you have fol
lowed the Ortho "Creen 'n Easy" program, shows nitrogen
deficiency next spring, we'll correct the deficiency by giv
ing you free enough nitrogen to equal 20% of that which
you applied this fall
Why is Ortho so confident?. . . Unipeis!
Ortho Unipeis are unlike any other fertilizer on the market
today Unipel pellets are both chemically and physically
uniform No chance for segregation or separation of ingred-
tents because every pellet has the same
size, shape, and density and every pellet
contains the precise ratio of N-P-K guaran
teed And the phosphate is fixation resis
tant So, once across the field does it with
Umpels'
You can't lose!

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, November 6,1971 —
more forcefully to charges made
against it at various times and
also point out the positive good
the industry does on range land—
building ponds that serve
livestock and wildlife, plus
clearing out dangerous un
derbrush so that our forests are
made less susceptible to fires,
and many other positive points.
Fisbeck said there is nothing
wrong with the sheep industry
that telling the other side of the
story won’t help The days of
waiting for the storm to blow over
are gone, he added, and “unless
you till the sheepman’s story it
will deal the industry a serious
blow.” Ecology and the en
vironmental concerns are here to
stay, he added, and the sheepman
is, and has been, cooperating in
every respect
New life also was put into the
promotion programs for lamb
and wool.
Lamb Sales Pushed
The American Lamb Council, a
division of the American Sheep
Producers Council, is pursuing
the new frozen lamb-in-a-box
program to interest other
processors in producing a quality
product, following a significant
year-long test of the salability of
frozen packaged lamb
The original frozen packaged
program was started with
Monfort of Colorado at Greeley
The firm fabricated eight dif
ferent lamb cuts to rigid Council
specifications All cuts are film
wrapped, packaged in individual
boxes designed by the Lamb
Council and “frozen at the peak
of goodness ”
Lamb sell efforts with the
military have been intensified
The American Lamb Council is
also interesting processors in
packaging and selling prepared
lamb dishes
At present ALC is cooperating
with Kubro Foods at Los Angeles,
California, on pre-cooked frozen
lamb dishes—barbecued riblets
and barbecued boneless shoulder
slices in an exclusive Kubro
sauce, and lamb curry These
have been tested and the
program is expected to be
launched to consumers in
January, 1972.
“If successful, the Council will
have developed an additional
market for the so-called ‘rough
cuts’ of lamb, turning them into
‘bonus’ cuts for the producer,”
Senator Henry Hibbard said.
Action Fabrics Urged
Greater movement in wool is
expected in November because of
the new “action fabrics” that are
being developed. This action
program consists of stretch
fabrics for men that will give
men the ease in movement in
woven fabrics that they have
been receiving this past season
from knits.
Major mills are moving heavily
into these woven stretch “action
fabrics.”
Indications are that the con
ventional “rigid” fabric con
structions for men’s wear will be
a negligible factor for the Fall ’72
selling period.
The total Council budget for
1972-73, beginning July 1, 1972,
will be $3,000,000 the same as that
for the current year. The
promotion portion includes 44.5
per cent for wool and 55.5 per cent
for lamb.
