helps prevent mite damage to

TREES, FLOWERS, SHRUBS and

ORNAMENTALS

Why put up with mite damage to your nursery or greenhouse plantings, when there's one sure way

to prevent it? New Rohm & Haas KELTHANE miticide controls spruce mites, red spider

mites, cyclamen mites and several others even so-called "resistant" species.

One spraying of KELTHANE provides long- lasting residual action. No need to repeat

spray for several weeks. In recommended dosages, KELTHANE EC emulsifiable

concentrate has a good margin of safety when applied to plants, buds and flowers.

And there's no visible residue to hinder sales. For extra-sensitive varieties,

KELTHANE W wettable powder is suggested. Both KELTHANE

formulations mix readily with water. Insecticides and fungicides

may be included in the spray.

A Cyanamid Report

MALATHION FOR DIRECT APPLICATION ON ANIMALS With newly-granted residue tolerances, malathion can be applied directly to beef cattle, poultry, and swine. This is the result of three years of extensive research in 11 states. The work proved conclusively the safety and usefulness of malathion as a spray for controlling cattle and poultry lice, poultry mites (northern fowl and chicken red mite), and cattle and poultry ticks. In addition, malathion dust may be applied to nests, litter, and floor space. Roost paints using malathion emulsifiable liquid may also be used in poultry houses. In addition to spraying beef cattle with malathion for lice control, rubbing devices incorporating the product have been most effective in suppressing lice and horn flies. Do not apply malathion to lactating dairy cows, since it has not yet been accepted for this use, nor should it be used on calves under one month of age.

PROTECTANT FOR STORED GRAIN With newly-granted residue tolerances for malathion on wheat, barley, oats, rice, rye, corn, grain sorghum, and peanuts (post- harvest), grain handlers storing grain have a method of protecting grain from loss to insects. Malathion, either in dust or spray form, applied to the grain as it is being loaded into bins, affords protection against confused flour beetle, rice weevil, granary weevil, saw-toothed grain beetle, flat grain beetle, red flour beetle, rusty grain beetle, lesser grain beetle, and Indian meal moth. It is also suggested as a residual wall, floor, and machinery spray in grain elevators, in treating truck beds, box cars, and ships' holds before loading grain. Where Indian meal moth infestations de- velop, surface applications of malathion dusts or sprays at pre- scribed intervals afford protection.

NEW USES FOR MALATHION ON CROPS Tolerances have been established on 37 additional crops, including:

Vegetables Fruits Asparagus Bramble family Carrots and other root crop Nectarines Garlic-Leeks-Shallots Quinces Several leaf vegetables Currants Pumpkins Gooseberries

Also, small grains, cotton, mushrooms, peppermint, spearmint, corn and rice. With these additions, malathion is now recommended on 93 crops.
