What’s New?
A new, ingenious, collapsible
reservoir which converts an
ordinary farm wagon, truck body
or pick-up truck to a portable
water reservoir has been an
nounced by Burch Manufacturing
Company, Inc. of Fort Dodge,
lowa.
Called Kolaps-A-Tank
Reservoir, it is perfect to use
wherever water needs to be
hauled - such as to livestock or
poultry, for spraying operations,
for washing down equipment, for
usage on construction jobs - or a
hundred and one other uses.
The Burch Kolaps-A-Tank
Reservoir is fabricated of tough,
rugged, heavyduty coated nylon -
and according to Karl Burch,
sales manager of the company,
will withstand the most severe
outdoor exposure. When not
being used, it rolls up into a
compact unit for easy storing.
According to Burch, the
Kolaps-A-Tank Reservoir not
only provides a handy,
economical way to haul water
anywhere it is needed, but it is
exceptionally easy to use. To fill
the Kolaps-A-Tank Reservoir, the
operator simply spreads it out
flat on the floor of the wagon box,
truck body, or pick-up truck and
fills it with water through a 10-
mch spout on top. It is quickly
emptied through a 3-inch spout on
the bottom.
Kolaps-A-Tank Reservoir is
available in several sizes to fit
standard wagon boxes, truck
beds and pick-up trucks - in

corn and soybeans.
Plenty of growers last season
learned that the ''foxtail" they
thought grew through their herbi
cides was really fall panicum.
And plenty of growers this season
will learn that if you apply Lasso,
you won't find fall panicum. Nor
will you find giant foxtail, crab
grass and most other grasses.
Works on broadleafs like pigweed,
too.
In short, Lasso solves plenty of
weed problems Or keeps them
from becoming problems.
That's what you expect from your herbicide.
