proportionately, e g. for mist blowers, use a 2X concentrate and 1/2 the spray volume
Begin applications when the Blue Mold Advisory states that
conditions favor development of blue mold, and before the
onset of disease infection. Continue applications on a 5-7 day
spray schedule until weather conditions favoring infection and
sporulation decrease. Discontinue sprays when and if the threat
of blue mold subsides.
ACROBAT MZ can only be used in a preventative spray
program to manage blue mold in tobacco. Total plant coverage
is essential to achieve maximum disease control with
ACROBAT MZ. ACROBAT MZ must be used in accordance
with the label.

through setting the sleeves, but
every stitch (plus those pulled
out and done over) was my own
work. When I had a vegetable
project, my father did do the ini-
ACCO
tial rototilling, but I was only 8
years old and too tiny to handle
the SHP Troybilt we owned. It’s
handles came to my shoulders!
When I showed my own
horse, my father would lead
Pinky to the gate, but that was
because Pinky was very spirited
and needed an extra firm hand
holding him in a crowded situa
tion, for others safely.
My husband showed steers
and made it to state competition
on full size tractors in the late
’sos. He had the same help I did
- verbal assistance at home and
only encouragement by knowing
those who cared were watching
ringside.
Right now is show/fair sea
son. How many young people
will receive premiums for their
own actual work? How many
premiums will youth get
because they have an “edge” by
having their parent or a profes
sional groomer get the animal
ready?

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, July 17, 1999-All
the breed shows and sales. Let
these kids learn by doing and
correct their own mistakes
themselves.
I’m now allowing my children
to compete this year for two rea
sons. One is what I just men
tioned - too much adult “help” to
many junior competitors and
second - my children waited
until the last minute to get their
act together and had the nerve
to ask their oldest sister (past 4-
H age) and me to get their pro
jects ready. I could have easily
done it that way. It would have
saved a- lot of frustration and
tears - but NO! What my chil
dren get, they earn. I consider
myself a professional -1 used to
be paid to train horses and show
other peoples horses in big
shows. I get paid for sewing
clothes and quilts. I used to
operate my own baked goods
and produce stand.
My children will learn like I
had to - by doing it themselves,
not by me doing it for them.
