Kuhns, Extension specialist in ornamental horticulture at Penn State. But now there’s a new, easy to-use manual to help solve weed problems. It’s called Weed Control Recommendation for Nursery, Landscape, and Christmas Tree Plantings 1982-83, and it’s available from your County Cooperative Extension Service office. There’s more to controlling weeds than simply pulling them out. Some weeds are easier to control with non-selective her bicides that are safest if used before planting. Others are easily controlled by using pre-emergence — .t .—ii— —r— i—, i SEED ALFALFA find FERTILIZE | I ALL ON ONE APPLICATION " I Another big advantage in liquid fertilizer is that 9 we can mix the alfalfa seed into the liquid fer* I tilizer. while blending your custom mixed fer-1 tilizer, and then apply it with one trip over your I field with our flotation applicator. * I 1 I WITH OUR NEW BLENDING PLANT WE CAN BE VERY i COMPETITIVE IN OUR FERTILIZER PRICES 9 FOR MORE INFORMATION CALL: I 717-397-0035 Lancaster Poultry Assn, to hold idea-sharing evening evening of idea sharing on poultry issues.

A non-ventilated pit results in a build-up of harmful, caustic gases, such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, methane, ammonia and mercaptans. Hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide are heavier than air and, as the level of pit waste rises closer to the slats, the gases are forced closer to the animals. Results of inhaling these gases may be deep, fast breathing from CO2. Hydrogen sulfide is one of the most toxic gases to animals and humans associated with liquid manure storage. This gas can cause severe irritation to the eyes and respiratory system and sometimes can result in death. It is often difficult to make provisions for ventilating manure storage pits, but AAA Associates Inc. now offers a simple, sensible and inex pensive means of ventilating pits. Virtually all liquid manure storage pits are equipped with pump out ports. For pump outs that do not extend into the manure, Pump Out Pit Fans can be adapted to the pump out ports. The pit fans are housed in foot long 8” or LO” diameter PVC Pipe and can easily be adapted to existing pump out ports. The fans contain small, but powerful, highly efficient motors mounted on long lasting aluminum motor mounts. The propellers are airfoil design, cast-aluminum. All units are equipped with a vinyl-coated guard complete with plastic butterfly damper. All hardware and springs are stainless steel. PVC pipe extensions and 45° elbows are available as accessory items. For six inch pump out ports, a reducer (8 M to 6”) may be used with fan model POPF-8 to provide ventilation through six inch pipe.
