Excess watr then goes directly Into a river, a tower or md for tooling. The Ha n ford plant showed ix-tter fishing where the excess water went Into the river. He showed a plan utilizing a reservoir at Sand H"llw for storing the coolant water from the plant. Tills would then be used to irrigate some HKl.UiO ac res of land south of Sand Hoi low reservoirs.

This is because winter condi tions have set the stage for your most profitable use of Igran SOW herbi cide this spring in an early spray. Wheat is still small. Weals are short, but cover fields like a dense carpet that can get a strangle-hold on your wheat in no time. And you have the moist soil and growing con ditions this spring for weals to do just that if you wait until wheat is tillering before you go after 'em. With Igran, you can spray when the weather first breaks. By ground rig or fly it on. To get your problem weeds out before they get ahead of vour wheat and stunt vour yield. Spray Igran any time. Before weeds arc four inches high or three inches in diameter. You can do this with Igran because it's safe to wheat. That's why it's the fall herbicide you can spray in the spring. With liquid nitrogen to weed 'n fcal in one pass, which is an excel lent idea this spring because we have the favorable soil moisture for it. And the good wheat prices. Why not use 2,4-1) or MCPA? Because tin's is the year you want your best yield. And you can't get it if you wait until wheat tillers. until everything is "just so" for 2,4-D or MCPA. Besides.they don't get many of the problem weeds Igran gets. Like spealwcll. chick weed, henbit, gromwell. tarweed, purple mustard, dog fennel, fan weed, bedstraw and others. In fact, I gran gi es you control of most annual broadleaf weals and grasses. Even gives partial control of cheargrass. enough so on Ye able to make a crop. And this is the year when every bushel counts, when every weed hurts. So don't lose 6-S bushels per acre bv using phenoxv-tvpe weed kilIersiikc2,4-DandMCPA.Thats what their injury to wheat costs you. Not tomention the ield lost because ou had to wait to spray and then problem weeds escaped anyway. Rotation? You can follow" an Igran wheat crop in rotation with peas, lentils, fall barley, alfalfa, blue- grass or clox erT To sum up, this is the spring for Igran herbicide. So, check fields for problem weeds early. Then knock 'em out with Igran just as soon as the weather opens up. (ieigy Agricultural Chemicals, Division of C1BA-GKIGY Corpo ration. Ardsley.
