Krom a weed that lived just long enough totell about it. "Oh, it was terrible. A tragic day for weeds indeed. There we were happily robbing the wheat of their precious moisture and nutrients when the Bronate hit. First the gromwell, tarweed, henbit and dogfennel keeled over and died. Then themustard family collapsedf simultaneously. And finally my own family of crowfoot went before my very eyes. I'd heard about Bronate but I never imagined it could wipe us out like that. I mean, we crowfoot are a hardy lot. Old Uncle Slimleaf, rest his soul, told us this Bronate wasn't like any other herbicide. It was educated. It knew the difference between weeds and wheat. It even says on the label it will kill 26 kinds of us. He said farmers use it because when it killed us, it wouldn't hurt a grain of the wheat. Even the new herbicide sensitive, varieties like luke wheat. And they'd get up to 12 to 20 bushels more yield per acre. Works on weeds, not wheat That's why it's the first choice of farmers out here in the Northwest. Well, Uncle Slimleaf was right, dead right. Anyway, by the time we realized Bronate was coming it was too late. We were goners. It's just a matter p time for.me, now. I don't know how much longer I can hang on. ' - j . ' . My last words to my fellow weeds are: stay away from Bronate. It r-e-a-ll-y w-o-rrr-ks." For information on how Bronate can help you. see your supplier or write Mr. R. P. Rich.
