New Sun-Mastr Hull
Designed to Control Dust
A new “flow-thru” hull design
has been introduced on the Sun-
Mastr Flail King Shredder which
keeps dust and chaff away from
the tractor operator. This is
accomplished through improved
discharge and better distribution
of shredded material from the
new “flow-thru” deisgn

not been changed from the
proven design that has given the
Sun-Mastr Flail King its
reputation of dependable,
economical performance.
Years of field use have proven
that the dynamic balancing of
every Sun-Mastr Flai l King rotor
with knives mounted is largely
responsible for long, low
maintenance operation. By
balancing the rotor shaft to
within one ounce inch, field
vibrations are virtually
eliminated. The one-piece cup
knives are also designed to create
suction which picks material up
off the ground for more thorough
shredding. This allows the unit to

knife life are not wasted chopping
dirt. This actually lowers tractor
horse-power requirement. The
“built-in” cutter bar helps to
insure all materials are finely
shredded. When off-set center
knives are installed, the unit is
ideal for cutting diverted acres.
Lasso and Lasso Plus
Atrazine Cleared for
Use on Sweet Corn
Use of Lasso EC herbicide and
Lasso plus atnzine tank mix on
sweet corn has been accepted by
the Environmental Protection
Agency in an expanded label
clearance granted to Monsanto
Company. Lasso currently has
label clearance on corn for gram
and silage and for soybeans and
peanuts.
Monsanto scientists said the
expanded clearance for Lasso
and the Lasso plus atrazme
combination will provide both
processing and fresh market
sweet corn growers with a more
effective means of controlling
most annual grasses and
broadleaf weeds with maximum
cropping flexibility
The use of Lasso alone permits
all crop rotations without danger
of herbicide residues in the soil
and controls a wide range of
annual grasses and many
broadleaf weeds Atrazme mixed
with Lasso extends the range of
broadleaf weed control. Rates of
application and directions for use
are similar to those for corn as
printed on the Lasso lable.
During 1972, the USDA is
looking to implement a broad
program designed to help far
mers control pests more ef
fectively and more economically,
while at the same time reducing
the amount of DDT and other
chemical pesticides currently
being used.
