growers who use conservation
tillage practices can use the new
EXTENDED SPLIT-SHOT (TM)
application method to apply (R)
SENCOR DF or SENCOR 4 her
bicides tank mixed with Lasso fR)
or Dual (R) to gain early and
residual control of tough weeds
such as cocklebur, sicklepod,
jimsonweed and foxtail.

plication method is unique in that it
features split applications of the
SENCOR herbicide tank mix - one
early preplant and one
preemergence. The first ap
plication can be broadcast over the

State’s soil survey
HARRISBURG - If you want to
know whether the land on your
farm will grow good crops or if
your lot is suitable for building a
house, chances are excellent that
the information is available.
Ninety-nine percent of Penn
sylvania’s land is now soil mapped
and classified, reports Garland H.
Lipscomb, state soil scientist for
the USDA Soil Conservation
Service (SCS).
Mapping is now complete in 66 of
hte State’s 67 counties, notes
Lipscomb. “Only a small portion of
Bedford County remains to be
mapped,” states Lipscomb. “We
expect to have the entire State
completed -by 1987. A total of
120,000 acres were mapped and
classified last year.”
Published soil surveys are
available in 55 counties, added
Lipscomb. County soil surveys
published in 1985 include Lan
caster, Montour, Northuirtberland,
Union, Snyder, Cambria, Forest,
and Warren. Soil survey reports
being printed are Wayne, Perry,
Cumberland, Bradford, Sullivan,
Lycoming, McKean, and Butler.
Soils information can be ob
tained by calling or visiting the
SCS office serving your county.
Office locations are listed in the
telephone book yellow pages under
Federal Government.

The second application of the
SENCOR and Dual or Lasso tank
mix is made as a preemergence
surface overlay at or shortly after
planting. This provides residual
control of weeds until the soybean
canopy develops.
The EXTENDED SPLIT-SHOT
application reduces the need for
additional tillage trips or burn
down herbicides early in the
season, and postemergence her
bicides later in the year. SENCOR
rates can be varied according to
the type of weeds and weed
pressure of the field, the amount of
time between the two applications,
the organic matter content and pH
of the soil, and the amount of crop
residue present on the soil surface.
SENCOR is a product of Mobay
Chemical Corporation, a diver
sified manufacturer of
agricultural and industrial
chemicals.

is seed-to-soil contact. The new
Haj istcr Air Drill propels seed
on an airstream into the soil. This
design provides superior seed-to
soil contact an at accurately
controlled depth.
In addition, the versatile new Air
Drill allows the farmer to seed and
fertilize to suit his individual
requirements without buying
additional equipment.
The Air Drill has no-till,
minimum-till and conventional-till
capabilities. The Air Drill plants
and deep bands the fertilizer in a
single pass, to save time, money,
and soil moisture.
Another time-saving feature is
the 160-bushel seed and fertilizer
capacity, which eliminates the
need for frequent refills during the
work day. And the Air Drill ef
ficiently plants all types of seed.
Unlike most other drills, the Air
Drill deep bands the full fertilizer
requirement below and between
paired rows to nourish the
seedling. The Air Drill utilizes
anhydrous ammonia, liquid or dry
fertilizer, or any combination of
the two.
