At night they head as a troop for a
“sleeping tree.” Generally the
troop’s dominant male sleeps
closer to the adult females, while
subordinate males choose more
far-flung branches.
The troop an average of nine
monkeys may contain only one
adult male, or two, or accasionally
more. Fighting for dominance is
rarely seen, the scientist said. Red
howlers tend more toward
vocalization than violence.
One troop under study was in
vaded by two males, however,
providing a rare view of red howler
aggression. All three males werre
injured in the battles for
supremacy. Access to females is
the main motivation for becoming
top male; that male breeds with
several females, perpetuating his
genes.
Some of the adults are not so
winsome. The disappearance of
several infants over the last few
years has led the scientist to
believe that infanticide by red
howler males is widespread, at an
average rate of one killing in each
troop every five or six years. As is
true of some other mammals, the
males apparently kill dependent

Unlike conventional soil insecticides, new
BROOT is formulated into unique roll

ground gypsum, the active ingredient in BROOT,
trimethacarb, is blended evenly throughout each

Because of this unique formulation, each granule
of BROOT gradually releases its active

So your corn roots stand a better chance of

Troop sizes in the two habitats
have become increasingly more

forest study’s start coincided with
a crash in the population, possible
caused by the failure of a par
ticular tree to fruit. This staple of
red howler diet has recovered, and
forest troops are thriving.

Here’s proof.
Results from performance trials
throughout the Com Belt prove that
BROOT soil insecticide provides the kind
of protection you need for top com yields.
In testing to date, BROOT has been a
consistent performer in terms of root
ratings and yield response. That’s why
BROOT is included in university recom
mendations for effective rootworm con
trol.
So ask your dealer about new BROOT

another rootworm insecticide. And once
you try BROOT, you’ll know it too.
